Natural Hair on Top Chef

This season of Top Chef boasts its second head of natural hair, Joy Crump. Thus far I haven't been wowed by her performance but there are still many challenges ahead.

Her predecessor Carla Hall was very impressive, She made it to the top five in her original season, returned for Top Chef All Stars and has gone on to host The Chew on ABC.

Win or lose booth ladies have beautiful heads of  hair and offered no explanation or excuses for it. I would be curious to know if they were questioned about their ability to "control" their hair in terms of hygiene in food preparation.  in the same way it is often implied and directly stated that natural hair isn't professional.

Shout out to Tiffany Derry, who rocked her season and now hosts her own restaurant themed reality show Hungry Investors. She is often the consulting chef on Bar Rescue.
