In an interview on The Breakfast Club, Lennox revealed that she is going to therapy. She says that this has helped with her relationship with her father, and how she navigates life. “I feel like there needs to be a lot of group therapy (with her father) and of course, I want to continue my therapy alone. But I think that would probably be best because I know these are things that I’m even carrying into my dating life and I don’t want to have that weight on me. I do want to be more compassionate because he went through a lot with foster care and abandonment issues, all kinds of dark things so I do recognize why he is the way that he is.”

2. She Uses Natural Products

When it comes to hair care, Lennox believes in using natural products. She tells Allure, “Any type of natural soap, I'll use for my scalp. I use natural shampoo, something that's paraben-free, free of toxins and chemicals. Afterward, I [use] just shea butter, really. Shea butter and a favorite oil of mine, whether it's grapeseed oil, olive oil, or jojoba oil. It's relatively simple — I wash it whenever I feel like it needs to be washed, about every two weeks or sooner.”

3. She Knows What’s Best For Her Skin

When it comes to skincare, Lennox knows what’s best for her. “I'm open to someone glowing me up and enlightening me on key products to have in my house,” she tells Allure. “But I don't go out of my way to do that. And then I don't really... I mean, I do kind of care what people think, but it's more about what makes me comfortable, what makes my skin happy. I've noticed my skin doesn't need much to be happy, so I just stick with simple.”

4. She’s Authentic

Lennox doesn’t feel pressure to look a certain way. She tells Allure that she’s all about authenticity. “Part of me wants to look as polished as some of the greatest legends that are around today. But another thing I'm just like, ‘Man, that's also not me every day.’ I don't mind showing people what I look like every day, because what the hell? To me, that's real life. At least that's my real life.”
