Taraji P. Henson shows no signs of slowing down. At 50-years-young, the actress, author, and hair care expert has done so much. Since her breakthrough role as Yvette in Baby Boy, Henson has honed monumental roles, and earned the awards to prove it. From 1 Golden Globe Award to 1 Screen Actors Guild Award, 1 Critics Choice Award, 2 Black Reel Awards, 6 BET awards, and 10 NAACP Awards, Henson has proven to be a force to reckon with on the screen.
When Henson isn’t showing off her acting chops, she’s slaying the fashion game on and off the red carpet. Henson works with only the best — Jason Bolden is her go-to stylist. Together, the pair create looks that keep the streets talking. Bolden often puts Henson in outfits that accentuate her long legs. And her hairstylist extraordinaire, Tym Wallace, has been known to work his magical fingers in Henson’s locs. From wigs to natural tresses, her mane is always done to perfection.
Today marks Taraji P. Henson’s 50th rotation around the sun. In honor of her birthday, we’ve counted down her ten best fashion moments.
