‘Come On Now’: Tami Roman’s Self-Proclaimed ‘Bad Hair Day’ Results In Surprising Response

A simple selfie Tami Roman posted to Instagram Thursday resulted in a surprising response from her followers.

“Just a hopeless ROMANTIC having a Bad Hair Day πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ @fashionnova,” Roman captioned the seemingly makeup-free photo she shared May 9.

Whether or not Roman’s fiery red wig was a bad hair day, the beanie she wore said as much. Just as her sweatshirt declared her a romantic.

Regardless of what her apparel said, Roman fans thought her hair was flaw-free and had no issues saying as much.

“@tamiroman u call that a bad hair day lol come on nowπŸ™‚”

“You never REALLY have a bad hair day!!”

“You look great bad hair day or not.”

“Looking good.”

“I love this color on youβ™₯️ @tamiroman.”

Roman may not have felt she was looking her best this week, but she was definitely feeling herself when she rocked an athleisure outfit back in March. Posing for photos with a pixie cut and a cropped jacket with matching white joggers by Fashion Nova, Roman was certainly serving looks that fans couldn’t get enough of.

β€œNahhhhhh Auntie you not playing fair!!! Tfffff! Looking tf goodt!!! These 23year olds could nevaaaaaπŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜©πŸ˜©πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜β€

β€œ@tamiroman you are on fire honey. Simply beautiful!”

A similar round of compliments emerged for Roman in February when Roman wore a long, black wig and a long-sleeved black sweatshirt and paired it with a fitted leopard-print pencil skirt.

The star mixed high and low fashion by combining the Fashion Nova skirt with a Balenciaga purse. Her sweatshirt also listed the “Basketball Wives” star’s apparent priorities: β€œGod, Goals and Glamour.”

β€œBeen slaying ever-ree thang….πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜β€

β€œTami!! You been werking these looks boo.πŸ€­β€οΈβ€

Roman has been keeping a relatively low profile as of late. Between posting selfies and other photos of her fashions, the star has alsoshared glimpses of her work on the VH1 special “Dear Mama,” which aired Monday and saw celebrities honoring their mothers.

Soon, Roman will return to the small screen and reality TV space when “Basketball Wives” airs its eighth season in June. But until then, the star has been keeping busy with other projects. Namely, it appears Roman is working on some new material as her rap alter ego Tatiana Trill.

Roman initially gave fans a taste of her MC persona at the end of 2018 and teased that she’d be re-entering the music business. She also just celebrated her shoe collection with Jessica Rich.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual β€” and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
