Layla Taylor isn’t keeping her new look a secret.
After all, the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star revealed that she swapped out her long black locks for voluminous blonde braids.
Layla shared a video on TikTok Dec. 18, featuring a clip of herself posing in New York City, with her black hair extensions cascading down her shoulders. In the second, she debuted her braids, which she wore in a half-up-half-down style.
The reality star—mom to sons Oliver, 4, and Maxwell, 3, with ex-husband Clayton Wessel—simply captioned the post, “Growth.”
Fans couldn’t help but praise the new look in her comment section, with one writing, “Proud black girl moment,” which Layla liked. Meanwhile, her costar Jen Affleck was also cheering her on, commenting, “YESSS LAYLA.”
The 24-year-old—who had been getting extensions done by her costar and hairstylist Jessi Ngatikaura—eventually decided to find a stylist better equipped to work with Black hair in season three. Although it was a difficult choice, she was grateful that Jessi was supportive.
