Sparkle actress Tika Sumpter hit the scene yesterday sporting a fun and curly new 'do that screams perfection for the spring & summer.  But does the chick who usually rocks extra long & bone straight locks pull it off?  Come inside and decide if we love it...

YBF chick Tika Sumpter hit the Lionsgate and IM Global Cinema Society screening of "Safe" yesterday at Chelsea Clearview Cinema in New York City.

Along with her teal high-waisted & tied shorts and black & cream floral blouse, Tika debuted a new look.....wild & crazy curls.  "The Game" actress is usually seen in much straighter & simpler locks.  But the pretty gal is making a bold move to try something new.

So.........

DO WE LOVE IT?
