Africa Glam: How Priscilla Ojo looks her best every time

It’s a no-brainer that her impeccable style would be on brand for Africa Glam, a new mobile game about African glitz, glamour, fashion, fame and everything Priscilla represents.

We had a quick chat with her to learn about all the secrets that leave her looking her best at all times.

  1. Always dress appropriately no matter where you’re going.
  2. Always make sure your hair is done.
  3. Focus on quality items over quantity.

I make sure I have breakfast every morning to start my day — it’s usually hectic so I need all the strength I can get. I have a short meeting with my glam team, we go through the client’s brief then a final check through the outfits, and then we head out to the location of the shoot. From then, it’s hair, makeup, styling, camera, lights and action!

On other days, I’m prepping to make an appearance at a client’s event, or I’m heading to the airport for a paid appearance outside the country. If I’m not working, I let my hair down, go for drinks and back home. But if I don’t have a shoot, I head to my office at Priscy’s Closet, a retail boutique I own.

My environment and my mum, Iyabo Ojo, inspire my glam. And, absolutely yes, Africa Glam can and will inspire aspiring fashionistas. It’s a unique app that’s fun and interesting and allows you to experiment with fashion.

January Jones Jokes About Her ‘Midlife Crisis’ Style

January Jones doesn’t think it’s ever too late to switch up your style. 


The Mad Men actress, 45, took to Instagram on Wednesday to showcase her new everyday look and, in doing so, revealed the unlikely source of outfit inspiration. 


With a post uploaded on Wednesday, the Emmy-nominated star admitted that she “never expected my midlife crisis to say instagram.com/p/CwlMDewvfIH/?img_index=2″ data-component=”link” data-source=”inlineLink” data-type=”externalLink” data-ordinal=”1″’take all fashion cues from teenage boys,’ ” however her current taste in clothes is seemingly pointing in that direction.

In the photos, Jones models an oversize navy-and-white ringer T-shirt layered over what appears to be a black lace slip dress. She wears 2000s-style sunglasses, gold hoop earrings and black lace-up boots. 


She also shared the pictures — showing her kneeling down on grass —  to her Instagram Story, writing, “My son [Xander] makes this pose in pics now so I did it to mock him and the jokes on me cause he’s right, it def makes you look cooler,” referring to her almost-8-year-old kid. 





Jones has proved to be quite the style chameleon, especially when it comes to her hair. Over the past few months, she took her shoulder-length bob into a shaggy pixie cut, which she later bleached platinum blonde. 


Years ago, Jones even told PEOPLE that she’d dye her hair green if Xander, then 4, wanted her to. 


“Maybe I would do green tips,” she said. “The problem is, I would probably try it and he’d be like, ‘Mom, you can’t do that.’ ”


This week, she decided to perm her locks, sharing before-and-after photos of her new waves done by Janine Jarman of Curl Cult, who also gave Portia de Rossi the perm treatment not too long ago.

10 Short Bob Haircut Ideas to Inspire Your Next Look

Your hair is an extension of your style, as it allows you to show off your personality and aesthetic, similar to your fashion choices. Getting a new haircut is one of the easiest ways to change your look up and embrace a new vibe or style. For anyone looking to give their hair a major chop, short bob haircuts are a trendy yet easy-to-manage look that’ll never go out of style. Just look at Hailey Beiber’s dramatic transformation.

Whether your hair type is wavy, straight, curly, or coily, there’s a bob hairstyle out there for you that’s sure to flatter. Not sure where to start? We spoke with editorial hairstylist Mariah Molina from DopDop Salon to discover the chicest short-bob haircuts for fine hair, thick hair, and everything in between.

“The short haircut trending this year is also the most universal haircut for most face shapes, and it’s the french bob,” Molina tells POPSUGAR. “[It’s] a classic and iconic haircut that can be customized.” A french bob is characterized by its ultra-cropped length, typically hitting just below the ears. As Molina says, it’s on most people. “French bobs are great for fine hair because they are known to be light and fluffy with layering,” she adds.

No matter if you’re interested in a short layered bob haircut, an inverted bob, or a shaggy style with bangs, we rounded up options to inspire your next trip to the salon.

Makeup artist Florian Hurel shares tips to achieve desired hair colour | Lifestyle Beauty

New Delhi: Hair colour can enhance a person’s personality and character. Some people change their hair colour for a change, while others do so to seem different. It could also mean a sense of relief for those who are going through a major transition or under extreme stress. People go through many periods of life, and as previously stated, it improves one’s appearance and makes one feel better.

Florian Hurel is a celebrity makeup artist and hair specialist, who has worked on a wide range of projects, including editorial giants like Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Elle, Grazia, Femina and Red Carpet Events like Cannes, IFFA, and others. He has been an educator for the longest time with a total international experience of 17 + years making him A Global Ambassador for Hair Giants “Schwarzkopf Professional”.

Florian speaks to IANSlife about everything about hair dye with Schwarzkopf Professional’s extension of the Royal Igora launch.

What method of DIY hair colouring at home is the safest? How can one achieve a salon-quality look at the home?

Hair colouring is an art and one really devotes time to achieving perfection in mastering it. I would personally recommend you to visit a salon for hair colour and let the experts do their job.

Is the only way to achieve the ideal colour for hair dye bleaching?

Not at all! You do not have to bleach your hair to achieve the desired hair colour. Professional brands like Schwarzkopf Professional are working on curating colour formulations that do not harm your hair while protecting the roots. The latest revamp of the hair colour range by Schwarzkopf Professional addresses this very concern, offering an incredible formulation curated for all kinds of hair. Igora Royal assures stunning performance and 100 per cent reliability. All the shades are

Beauty Tips We Learned From Our Moms: Fact vs. Fiction

9. Female hair loss is from the maternal grandfather

False again. Thinning hair makes many mature women start taking a closer look at their family’s tresses, but hair loss can be caused by a variety of issues. “Androgenetic alopecia can be inherited from either side or both sides of the family, and it can even skip generations,” says Day. “Stress from death of a loved one, divorce, hormonal changes or even the physical tension of years of tight braids or ponytails can also lead to hair loss. Topical Minoxidil is FDA approved at the 5 percent dose, and other treatments from lasers to supplements to hair transplants can also be of help. See your dermatologist for evaluation and guidance.” And I’ll add: How’s your diet and hair routine? Eggs, fatty fish like salmon and mackerel, Greek yogurt, sweet potatoes, spinach, avocados, berries, nuts (especially walnuts) and seeds like chia and flax are all on the healthier hair A-list. Skip tight elastic bands and those mythical 100 strokes of the brush a day and add a wide-tooth detangling comb and more gentle hair accessories like silk scrunchies to your regimen along with a looser, pulled-back look.

Clothes and hair trends for the 2022 school year

Aug 22, 2022, 9:59amUpdated 1d ago

By: News 12 Staff

Parents, did you save your bell bottom jeans and Trapper Keeper
from the 90s? It’s all coming back in style! But this year, kids are adding their personal touch.

From hair to clothes,
anything goes — with
some 90s to the early 2000s vibes.

“A lot of it is the Y2K shapes are coming back, so the lightning bolt, the smiley faces, and
really just parents see what they would shop for when they were kids now
bringing it back with their kids,” says Julia D’Aguanno, manager at Little
Chicken in Atlantic Highlands. “It’s really fun.”

D’Aguanno says let kids add
patches, they’re not just used to cover up a hole on the knee.

“A girl can come in to get
dinos if they wanted to on their backpack or a boy could come in and say oh I
love a unicorn or a rainbow,” says D’Aguanno. “Parents accept that and their kids express themselves which
is really awesome.”

Annmarie Russo at Bangz in
Montclair says kids are getting a lot of influence from social media, YouTube
and just other people.

“You can be inspired by
others, which is a good thing,” says Johnny Petrozzino, at Bangz. “You should
always be inspired. We always inspire each other, and we inspire each other
here as stylists with our style, hair and clothes, and we inspire our clients,
but we inspire our clients to be themselves and be who they are especially with
how the world is changing.”
