Cassidy Bridges, affectionately known as Cassidy Brianna is a six year old Model, Actor, Author, and Social Media influencer. Cassidy started her career at the age of two working with some amazing companies online. At the age of 4 she quickly gained notoriety after an Instagram video went viral while wearing an Afro Unicorn tee for telling a stranger, thank you for how much she loved Cassidy’s Afro hair. The video gained millions of likes and shares throughout the internet, even being shared by major celebrities, brands, and publications such as Viola Davis, D.L.Hughley, Oprah Daily, BET, The Shade Room, and many more. Cassidy's signature catchphrase of "Thank you, It's an Afro" made her a household symbol of Black pride and beauty among people of color and the natural hair community around the globe.   Like her mom, Cassidy is creative, fun-loving, and a natural learner and teacher.
