JOBURG – Candi and Co present the 2019 Hair Trend Report, featuring guest editor Nadia Nakai.
Renowned hair and beauty salon, Candi and Co has released the 2019 Hair Trend Report, featuring celebrity guest editor Nadia Nakai. Themed Candiland and inspired by the expressive and bold hair trends from the local and global festivals such as Coachella, Rocking the Daisies, Burning Man and AfroPunk, this year’s trend report comes just in time to brighten up the mood and put spunk in this year’s winter season.
Launched at the exclusive Alice and Fifth in Sandton, the festival-themed event attracted Joburg’s well-heeled denizens; including media, celebrities and influencers who enjoyed a specially designed menu and cocktails. Candiland was subsequently launched, on the same day, at the Beauty Revolution event at the Sandton Convention Centre where Candi & Co. partnered with Foschini to introduce the Trend Report to the public.
“We’re quite thrilled about the prospect to present this year’s hair trends, which are quite funky, playful, bold and really girly at the same time. We worked with quite a reputable and credible list of talented people in the hair and beauty industry to compile this report, which we know will give us some sure hits our clients would love this season,” said Candice Thurston, founder and chief executive of Candi and Co.
Thurston said Candi and Co is about de-racialising, destigmatising and revolutionising the hair and beauty notions.
“We want to give our cis -and gender non-confirming clients the strength and confidence they need to feel beautiful and confident. A great hairstyle can make you feel 10 times more beautiful,” she said.
Leading hip-hop artist Nadia Nakai features as guest editor for Candiland. As part of the editorial team, she’s selected a stunning collection of custom-made wigs that features beaded braids and colourful wigs – representative of her vibrant personality as a performer.
The beautiful and trendsetting influencers who also feature in the Trend Report include Lulama Wolf, Tumi Mohale, Jena Dover, Danni Bowler, Crystal Kasper, Kgosi ‘Krayzik’ Modisane and Stella Nhantumbo.
The Candiland Trend Report, in association with Batiste, is a digital publication featuring the hottest and latest in hair trends for 2019 and also co-stars some of South Africa’s greatest influencers looking glam with the latest dos available from www.candiandco.co.za
“We were excited to not only partner with South Africa’s most exquisite women but loved partnering with Batiste, the world’s number one dry shampoo brand. This dry shampoo is suitable for all hair types including wigs and weaves and is a quick and convenient way to instantly refresh hair between washes, leaving hair clean and fresh.
