Theatre and television actress, Sophie Okonedo has never failed to stun her fans with her curly hairstyles. Especially the ones she sports for any award ceremonies, give us major hair goals. Keeping up with her curly styles, we’ve been wondering how she always makes her way looking outstanding every time. So here’s a look back at her pretty curls for some inspiration.

Her classic Afro curls obviously made it to the first mention as here is a style that will never cease to go out of trend. Sophie flaunted these gorgeous curls at the 64th Evening Standard Theatre Awards in London (2018) and grabbed all the attention with it. If you want to try this perfectly voluminous look you can either choose to visit your stylist at your preferred salon or just take the easy way out, like we did, and opt for hair extensions instead! All we needed to do after was add the finishing with our favourite Shine spray such as Afro Sheen Glow Up Shine Spray. It adds a shine to your hairstyle using a natural propellent powered by air. If creating the style with your own natural hair, you can definitely look to Afro Sheen Crown Defining Curl Cream because it’ll hydrate your curls with a non-greasy formula and lend shine while at it.

2. Stunning Short Tight Curls

We found that it gave us the perfect hold and added the sheen that we were aiming for. Ladies! Trust us when we say that this product will enhance your natural curl pattern providing it the nourishment and shine whilst at it. Try it yourself to know just how amazingly it works with curls.
