Former MSNBC (now MS NOW) anchor Joy Reid has thanked Tamron Hall for supporting her during challenges with hair and makeup early in her TV news career.

Reid opened up about her early struggles at the third annual Behind the Scenes Beauty Day Soirée, organized by The View hairstylist Derick Monroe. After being honored at the event, the political commentator revealed she was often in tears during her early days at MSNBC because no one understood Black haircare and skincare.
