An association that has lasted since Wilson was a rookie, Myesha opened up about her experience working with the 2× WNBA champion. She said, “It is amazing. If I can just say that. I don’t think words can explain how amazing it is, from the beginning till now. Watching her grow, watching her evolve. Just us changing her hair over the years. I just love it.”

Earlier, A’ja Wilson gave a shoutout to her hair stylist and make-up artist during her interaction with Villicana on the media day. She reflected on their contributions since 2018 when she was fresh out of college. Wilson said, “They’ve been with me since my rookie year. They just went through everything with me. Make sure they’re always here with me. I’m thankful to them. They’ve taken time away from their family. I thank them so much.”

The celebrity hairstylist also spilled some beans about the viral media day look of the 2× WNBA MVP.
