HOT HAIR ALERT: WE ARE LOVING FAUX LOCS FOR THE YEAR 2016

Faux locs are a sexy and stylish protective style that allows you to see how you would look if you decided to rock real locs. They are a protective style that creates the illusion of real locs by winding extensions around sections of your own hair. They are growing in popularity and as more women rock them, some are finding out there may be concerns on whether or not they are damaging to one’s own hair. 

Extra strain on your scalp with the added hair can cause excessive tension so be careful when getting them braided.

Most importantantly moisturise your hair as much as possible to avoid the build up of dandruff and to soften the scalp.What do you think?Will you be trying this trend or nah?

Either way the event ended up being a huge blast with every who is who on the kampala social scene in attendance.
The lady of the night(Nickita Bhachu) and her boo Gareth Onyango arrived in at  around midnight and kicked off what would be a wild night.
