Thicker Than Water: Fix Your Hair, Jewel


I've been watching Thicker Than Water since it's Season 1 debut, and I enjoy watching the Tankards. I knew about Ben Tankard long before he got famous because he's a legend in the gospel music industry. He produced a lot of Yolanda Adams' earlier music, and grew up in the Tallahassee region. Thicker Than Water was the highest rated new show on Bravo, garnering millions of views so obviously people enjoy the show. Critics of the show state the Tankards are materialistic because their subject matter always seems to be about money, but I don't see it that way. I see them as a regular family that happened to be blessed with a good life. They've been very open about their struggles, so I don't see how folks could say they're all that. Everyone has no problem with unsaved folks being blessed, but as soon as a Christian is blessed, all hell breaks loose. Last time I checked, Christians have as much right to be blessed as unsaved folks.
I have a question: Why does Jewel's hair always look a mess on the show? You'd think with all the money the Tankards have, Jewel could afford a good hairstylist, but maybe I'm wrong. I don't know if she does her own hair before the show or maybe she wants to be seen as real, like she doesn't want to give off an "I'm better than you" vibe, who knows. All I know is when you're on national TV, image is everything. You have to be on point from head to toe. If you're hair is messed up for whatever reason, people are going to run with it. "Her hair looks crazy" "Who does her hair" yadda yadda. Brooklyn, Cyrene, Shanira and the other young Tankard women look slayed each episode, so what's Jewel's excuse? I've seen enough reality shows to know that hair is one of the first things people look at on a female reality star. Her clothing can be on point, but if her hair looks crazy, forget it.
