It’s no secret that Quad Webb has rocked many fabulous hairstyles over the years. Throughout her career, the nation has witnessed the “Married to Medicine” reality star change her signature dark brown hair to crimson waist-length locks. But in her latest Instagram post, the Bravo beauty made some fans do a double take.

Quad shared an old image that showed her modeling in what appeared to be her dining room. Donning a white long-sleeve shirt and a pair of denim shorts that were embellished with a dark blue design, the mother of one struck her pose by smizing at the camera. Quad accessorized her outfit with nude open-toe stilettos, sunglasses, and a light blue cross body handbag. Her black wavy hair was enhanced with purple peekaboo highlights.

The Tennessee native implied in her caption that she was searching for her shades. She wrote: “#flashbackfriday Damn I wish I could find these frames. Are you like me always losing your nice sunglasses 🙄🤦🏽‍♀️.”

While Quad was reminiscing on her fierce sunglasses, people were focusing on her tresses. One IG user gushed: “I love the hair!💚.” Another fan commented: “That hair is everything!!! You should do it again😍😍😍 subtle but cute.”

This isn’t the first time people have noticed Quad’s drastic hair transformation. The former “Sister Circle” talk show host rocked a half-up, half-down hairstyle in a promo shoot for season 7 of “M2M” last summer. When the images were released on Bravo’s social media pages, fans noticed that Quad’s hairline looked flawed.

Quad said in a 2019 interview with Hype Hair that the photos were “photo shopped,” explaining that she did not approve of the images before they were released. She claimed that the photos made her look as if she had “helmet hair” and implied that there is not enough diversity behind the scenes and at decision-making tables in the entertainment and beauty industries.

“I think it’s a quintessential mistake that a lot of Caucasian people make when they’re making decisions without understanding Black people, Black culture,” she stressed. “There was not a Black person in the room, and if so that would have never happened.”

At the time, Quad said she had reached out to the executives at Bravo to ensure that nothing like that ever happened to her or her cast mates again.

The ABS Newsletter — Stories that matter, in your inbox.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
