How to find your perfect blonde

How to find your perfect blonde

Blonde hair is beautiful. Blonde can be bold, but you need to know how to make it work for you. We’ve seen blunders that could have been avoided if the right measures were taken before the hair colour change. We’re here to make sure you don’t end up looking like a Duracell battery in the name of fashion. Here’s how to find the right blonde hair colour suited for you. Find YOUR blonde First things first. Take a strand test before you colour your entire head. This way, you can see how your hair reacts to the colour. This is also a great way to see how the colour will look on you. Skin tone If you’re darker-skinned, consider a caramel blonde. This works exceptionally well for women with a copper skin tone. If your skin is lighter, try a more platinum or sunkissed blonde to accentuate your caramel tone. Hair texture If you’re rocking your natural hair, then you’re pretty much ready to colour. If you’ve permed or relaxed your hair, you may need to put your colour treatment on hold for two weeks. Maintenance is key So now you’re all bold in blonde. Colouring your hair is just the beginning. Maintaining your hair is the next step. Ensure that you condition your hair, regardless of its texture. It needs hydration to stay healthy and beautiful. Lucky for you, every Inecto Colours box comes with an aloe and milk protein conditioner to give you deep moisturising. Another important thing to remember is to use a colour safe shampoo. This will ensure that your beautiful new colour doesn’t end...

8 hair looks that keep us crushing on Mmabatho Montsho.

8 hair looks that keep us crushing on Mmabatho Montsho.

Whenever we speak afros, Mmabatho Montsho pops into the conversation. We know her as that ever beautiful woman with stunning natural hair and minimal make-up. She's an African goddess of note. We’ve seen her grow as an actress on Generations, Rhythm City and Jacobs Cross to mention a few. She's taken on the big screen too alongside Khanyi Mbau and Renate Stuurman in the movie, ‘Happiness is a Four-letter Word’. These days she’s more focused on her producer and director talents, notably her short film, ‘The Groom’s Price’. She may be good at keeping a low profile, but her hair is a topic we can't avoid. Year on year we’ve been green with envy because of her full and gorgeous hair. She’s gone from a big afro to TWA and just keeps us guessing. She's been tight-lipped about the secret to her gorgeous coils. Hopefully, one day we'll get the scoop. For now, let's marvel at 8 of the looks we’ve liked the most.Image Source: instagram 1.The majestic froMuch has been said about her signature afro, but we need to take a moment to appreciate how versatile it is. We’ve seen her comb it out to its full glory and tie it into a bun. We've especially loved how she can braid it in natural cornrows, which have an old school glam feel. On Instagram, she’s always the fresh-faced girl with glorious hair.Image Source: quenchsa.com Classic fro. 2. Headwrap and natural hairIf you’re fortunate enough to have a patiently grown afro like hers, you can wear your hair in a head wrap, faux fro or even a different colour.Image...
