Moore, the founder of her self-titled hair-care line, follows a consistent hair- care regimen to maintain her 24-inch locks. The former Miss USA revealed on Instagram that she does not relax her hair. She shared she cuts her dead ends frequently and credits her healthy mane to her hair-care products. She explained in a 2013 interview with Longing 4 Length that she washes her hair every five days and deep conditions her locks every week.

Moore, the mother to 1-year-old Brooklyn Daly, admitted that she adds protein to her tresses because her hair is dyed. Moore implied that she rocks hair extensions for work purposes, but ultimately prefers to wear her natural hair. “I’ll play with pieces and wigs for photo shoots. My hair is very thick so I never need extra volume,” she explained.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — 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.
