I am thrilled to officially announce that I am now an ambassador for the wonderful
Follicle Hair Atelier, a full service salon (hair, nails, make-up), located in the
Waterkloof Corner Centre in Main Road, Brooklyn.
(Follow the high-lighted link to their website for info)
With a fabulous wooden 'kitchen' table in the centre of the salon creating a stylish 'homey' feel and a perfect social atmosphere, the salon is not only gorgeous - it makes you want to go for a haircut just because it feels like you're spending a wonderfully cozy morning with friends over coffee.
And the stylists are all sought-after and superb. They not only style in the salon, but have 'mobile' teams called "
Follicle on the Move", who work on weddings, music videos, fashion shoots and film sets. (A recent notable project the upcoming film, Forsaken which wrapped production last week.)

The Follicle Power Team: Walter, Glen and Cornel |
Besides being fabulous and brilliant at what they do, they also do incredible charity work through their "
Follicle Care Program" and I am most excited to become part of this initiative. One of their projects from last year, the Tutu Drive will be repeated this year and I just love the idea of it. Twelve teenage girls from the Jacaranda Children's Home get to experience what it's like to be part of a real professional photo shoot. Not only do they get their hair, nails and make-up done by Follicle... but fashion clothing is sponsored by the community, their looks are styled by the Follicle Ambassadors and they have a whole session with a pro photographer making them feel like a million dollars. So special!
Follicle is also planning a rooftop concert event in June and will be auctioning off the hot male ambassadors in the month of August - so watch this space!
Follicle even offers a variety of
hands-on workshops in the line of styling and beauty, and I for one can't wait to take part in these. What girl wouldn't want to experience a
blow-dry boot-camp or an
iron-styling technique workshop.... bring it on! (Such a cool idea for hen's nights/ kitchen teas/ birthdays etc
I am truly excited to be associated with and supporting this great brand and company.
Thank you so much Follicle for bringing me onto your team, I am really excited for all that lies ahead!
I'm definitely part of the Follicle #FanClub!
