We live in a world obsessed with couple goals. Everybody has that one couple (usually online) that they openly or secretly follow. More often than not, to the shock of everyone this perfect couples tend to eventually separate or get involved in major scandals . This film is the antithesis of the couple goals phenomenon. On paper everything seems chaotic but in reality, it’s the ultimate couple goals. What about your hair? is not a love story but a story about the simplicity of true love while also paying homage to the relationship between the African woman and her hair.
