Yemi Alade. Where do I even start? She is a star performer with a commanding stage presence.Let’s talk about her vocal range another day because she can belt out tunes and ensures that every song she touches turns into gold. Call it the Midas Touch! She has an uber talented team in charge of her wardrobe, make-up and hair because she always looks breathtaking. Never one hair, eyelash or thread out of place. Let’s look at some wonderful hairstyles that you can draw inspiration from:

Bantu Knots

I spy with my little eyes, cute Bantu knots. Nothing screams ‘’African’’ like Bantu knots. These ones worn by Yemi are classy and fun, just like her personality. What makes the style interesting is the incorporation of coloured braids for added pizzazz. Use Darling Yaki braids to achieve this look.

Wakanda Forever

Yemi is serving us Wakanda realness with this look. Cornrows on the side and a bun in the center, beads as embellishments, gorgeous makeup and accessories…We approve! Looking like a whole African queen.

The Yemi

We are queens and our hair is our crown. This rings true with in Yemi’s hairstyle.Heads and crowns held high, this particular style? This is what I call a masterpiece! I christen it ‘’The Yemi’’. Now go to your hairstylist and ask for ‘’The Yemi’’.

Cleopatra Realness

On the theme of queendom. Yemi is serving us some Cleopatra realness. Looking like the Queen of Egypt with this hairstyle! Kind of like Cleopatra’s great great great granddaughter, yes? The wooden beaded fringe is just what she needed to take the style from nice to epic. The colour of the braids is also subtle and suits her caramel complexion.

Power Puffs

This photo depicts a strong and confident Yemi. The hair has been sectioned into 4 sections to create a mohawk composed of 4 magnificent puffs. Yemi pulls this off effortlessly. The accessories paired with the hairstyle are a winning combination. The only question is, are you brave enough to wear this?

Yemi sure inspires us to get out of our comfort zones to explore what lies beyond the hair horizons. Which was your favourite Yemi Alade hairstyle?
