I’m convinced that no one has more fun with cornrows than Tracee Ellis Ross. On August 10, the entrepreneur shared her weekly photo dump on Instagram, this time featuring her time on Martha’s Vineyard, where she attended the African American Film Festival. While promoting her new show, Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross, the star was, of course, dressed to the nines in an off-the-runway Givenchy Fall 2025 dress. Still, it was her perfect protective style that was the cherry on top.
For her look, Ross chose a hairstyle she has worn before, and it remains just as stylish as it was when I first saw her in it. Her hair was divided into six evenly spaced sections around her head. Then, each section was cornrowed straight back, with the ends gathered into a ponytail. Lastly, that low ponytail was tucked into a bun, allowing her makeup and accessories to stand out.
