Real Housewives of Atlanta shed their hair weaves and wigs
What's the newest trend for 2016? Real Housewives of Atlanta showing off their real hair.
Anyone who is a fan of the show knows hair weaves are in full effect on the screen, but recently, select housewives have taken to Instagram to reveal their natural, un-enhanced hair.
For those who don't know, hair weaves are a process in which hair from another source is glued or sewn into the hair on your head. Many a real housewife has found profit in the hair business including Kim Zolciak, who once had (has?) a line of wigs (she wears them) and Williams, who has a line of hair extensions and products called Go Naked.

Black Girl with Long Hair , a website celebrating natural hair, noted that Bailey was the housewife who kicked off the New Year by going weave-less. She posted pics of herself and Sheree Whitfield with the hashtag #noweavenowigday.
Don't get excited. This isn't necessarily the start of a trend. It was only one day. Bailey's hair assists appeared to be back in place in subsequent appearances.

Last year around the same time it was Williams hitting Instagram with images of herself without a weave which is obviously not a permanent look for someone who owns a business specializing in hair extensions.
A few of Bailey's IG followers noted that she is the housewife who should have a line of hair extensions -- as hers are always on point.
