2. Colour

You don’t need full colour to give your hair a makeover. Just highlight the tips for a fun and youthful look.

Me: Let’s just play around with the very tips of my Afro. Nothing crazy, I have a job and stuff. Stylist: Sure sure my sister ja vele I understand ??. *3 hours later* Me: ?? #blondehairdontcare #ExceptIDoBecauseI’mGettingFired #Lajawi

5. Cut

Whether you go for the conventional fade or style up your look, a neat haircut always looks good on natural hair.
