Summary

This week I have my friend and longtime stylist Kiyah Wright on the couch. She's been in the hair industry for 30 years working with everyone from Ciara, Mary J Blige, Tyra Banks, and so many other iconic women in the entertainment industry. We talked about everything from her upbringing, tour days, time on set with Tyra and her haircare line. Kiyah is a living testament that you can have longevity in the business if you have unwavering faith and impeccable work ethic.
