It seems like everyone in Nigeria is an entrepreneur these days. Could it be some sort of trend that will phase out after a while, the liberating and elevating feeling it gives to be addressed as a business owner and an employer of labour?

Trend alert - BOX BRAIDS

  If there's one haistyle that wont be leaving us anytime soon, its the BOX BRAIDS. Many fashion icons have  rocked it and some are yet to. The likes of the Knowles sisters, Solange   Beyonce   Janet Jackson Brandy  Just recently, Keri Hilson just joined the league and is totally owning the look like she was born for it. Its very obvious she's loving the box braids as she pretty girl rocked her way into the premiere of her new film, 'Riddick' starring Vin Diesel. She looked really stunning in the black body-hugging dress and black shoes she donned.  and finally me, when I caught the BOX BRAIDS fever.
