It seems that Barr has joined the ranks of celebrities embracing the beauty and practicality of protective hairstyles. These styles have become the powerhouse of natural hair care. Not only do they keep natural hair safeguarded, but they also promote healthy hair growth.

One particularly popular protective style is box braids. Unlike regular braids, box braids are named for the way individual hair sections are parted on the scalp, forming neat, box-like grids. Typically, these styles are achieved with extensions and come in various lengths, sizes, and colors, offering a vast canvas for personal expression.

Barr's influence on hair styling extends beyond her personal transformations. Her memorable moments on the set of her own show, continually captivated her audience.

Michael Fishman, who played D.J. Conner, recalls a surprising and liberating experience from his youth on the show. Barr, taking matters into her own hands, decided to give him a buzz cut, freeing him from his dreaded bowl cut. Fishman was thrilled with the change.
