I believe Shondaland is the first movie production to really invite us behind the scenes at such an extreme in-depth pace that it just attracts us even more. India is such a beautiful character.

I love how they are showing the proper steps to protect our hair. This can lead to a certification process for people who do textured hair on set.

Yes, the everyday look and even the brushed out bedroom look could be achieved with her own hair, but it would be damaging to manipulate her own hair for filming. I love how much effort they take to ensure her own hair doesn't suffer.

A lot of black women were complaining on another video because of the hairline. I think it looks dreadful too. And girl needs a few sessions at the laser hair removal because that neck beard. Laser hair removal really works especially on coarser hair fyi.

@@adlyndelamar8953 Not everyone loves manipulating themselves to fit other people's beauty standards. There's nothing wrong with the hair on her neck. If she had a problem with it I'm sure she would have removed it. Y'all always have to find some fault.

@lamoyadoeman you tell her sista. I, too, have her on my neck. I tried changing it years ago by shaving, and it looked odd. So I wear mine loud and proud.
India is as if "beauty and cute had a baby." I love her personality. What a kind soul.

The most beautiful! Miss India Amarteifio❤ The hair and makeup crew did sooo well
Makes me appreciate every single bit of queen Charlotte much more if that's possible. If im feeling low, on goes Queen Charlotte it just lifts my spirits. Thank you each and every one of you. Creators, producers, cast, and crew. Please let there be a season 2. I know it's meant to be a limited series, but 😊

Phenomenal!! The cast and crew are all truly phenomenal, talented, amazing people. What a gift 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
The first time I saw India was in Gangster Granny in 2013. She still has that same sweet face, but look at her now! I love the way Corey reminds us that she has been working very well for a long time, but Queen Charlotte made her a household name. ❤❤❤
That make up was flawless!! Loved seeing this, I already has respect for India but this bumps it up even more seeing all those layers of wigs and adornments she had to wear and then the full costume. Much respect!

Brilliant video Ryan and Shondaland! And kudos to the hair and makeup team who did a great job but it would be great to see Black and Brown women on the team. India, India, India! How can someone not be in awe of this young woman? Onscreen and offscreen she seems like the most wonderful person to be around with.🌟❤️

There are black and brown women on the team. Just not in this particular video or for India's make up/ hair. There are multiple videos with diverse women in the audio department, lighting department, PA, and so on. I didn't even notice that there weren't any for this particular India's shoot until it was mentioned. Race doesn't always have to be on the forefront. We are first people, humans before we are colored...

@@musicbytoffie I have watched the videos and saw Black and Brown people among the crew but as I am entitled to my own opinion I still wanted to see Black and Brown women in the makeup/hair team which is a valid concern as most of these shows, especially when they have Black and Brown as cast members, don’t do enough work on employing these demographics for their grooming teams. Settling with the bare minimum is not the way I think things should be done. Also, if for you race doesn’t always have to be in the forefront it’s your opinion. For me race is always in the forefront of everything because we live in a systematically racist and discriminatory society.

@@myswagobsession But anyone who works in hair and makeup should be able to do India's hair and makeup. If they don't already know, they need to learn. Black women shouldn't be stuck doing their own if there isn't a Black person on set. I think that is the point of showing them. It's important enough to prioritize learning how to do it properly regardless of your own background.
I love everything about Shondaland’s Queen Charlotte! The actors, the staff, the way they go about everything. There is so much passion in and behind the scenes. I’m so glad we get to see it all.

@@AnaisKarim you keep saying this, stop it. This is the second comment I’ve seen of you shutting down an important conversation with your ignorant comment, a very white thing to do. It is important for Black women to be heavily represented in hair and makeup as I bet most of these skills of styling a Black person’s hair is learned from Black women. And why don’t you give that same energy and say that people of diverse backgrounds should be recruited into hair and makeup, huh? You want to see white hardressers on set doing Black hair because they can learn so why can’t the original poster want to see a Black person who already knows how to work these hairstyles, and with much more proficiency and competence?!!

I agree wholeheartedly with you both! I would like to see more people of color doing hair behind the scenes, but I also think a true hairdresser should understand how to do all hair types. Unfortunately, most people only know how to do certain hair types really well and it shows!

@@tdr.220 that’s true but if you think about it, they never ever give Black people a chance even from that lens i.e. a Black person should be able to do any type of hair/makeup so let’s hire more of them on scene. We don’t see that. That’s why we get frustrated when the one chance we could have to see people that look like us doing hair and makeup for characters that look like us, the opportunity is STILL not given. So it lends credence to the initial argument. Is it only white makeup and hair artists that should be given a chance to learn how to work with diverse skin/hair types while others don’t even get a chance with either? And like the person I responded to earlier, I bet he/she has never commented to say oh why wasn’t a Black person hired to do white hair, anyone should be able to learn. They never make such an argument in our defense.
I am so glad to see India and the get behind the scenes to the transformation. Too bad there’s not much other representation on site. Beautiful work though.
I’m doing a Queen Charlotte costume for Halloween so this is the video I need to watch!

Black woman's hair is another beauty world on it's own, u know. I'm a chinese woman and my straight black hair starting to look boring 😂😂😂
She reminds me of Blue Ivy.

I hate shows like this that portray the characters completely different to the actual historical person.. Charlotte wasn’t black 😞 she was very very European and born in what is Germany today, she had Portuguese in her which could be the reason for her strong features, but she wasn’t black. Just because someone has strong features doesn’t mean you have to take the easy way out and pick a black actress for a white European queens role.. What’s more embarrassing is that in the 1700s there was around just 20k black people living in Britain. It was extremely early days for migration. But who knows maybe Martín Luther king will be white in a film one day. 🤷🏽♂️😂

This show is based on ROMANCE NOVELS. this is a fictional romance series based on the aesthetics of regal fashion- if you want accuracy then stop going to Netflix shows or forms of entertainment as historical educational material…. Cause I promise we all know this shit isn’t accurate, we’re watching for the hot romance and pretty outfits (plus most of the audience are adults- not kids that need educating)
