All Hail Nomzamo Mbatha, Queen of Big Hair

Nomzamo Mbatha always delivers when it comes to hair. From a  perfectly sculpted afro to braids so sleek they look in place. No matter the style, she takes on it with perfection that makes people stop and take a look. Here are some of her legendary looks that are absolutely stunning. 

The Coiled Crown Look  

This hairstyle looks like a crown sitting right on her head. The base is made with neat cornrows, which hold everything firmly in place. From there, thick coils rise upward, rounded and shiny, standing tall at the top. The coils are dark, smooth, and carefully arranged so the shape looks full and balanced. It feels both stylish and traditional, with each coil adding a little drama to the look. The result is bold, clean, and full of confidence.

The Circular Braid Look 

This hairstyle is built with neat black braids, woven close to the head to give a smooth base. The main detail is a large circle placed above the forehead, made from braids that spread out evenly like the lines of a wheel. With a bun in front, from there, the braids continue around the sides and back in a clean, even pattern. The style looks modern but also carries a strong cultural touch. It’s the kind of hair that matches an outfit and still stands out on its own.

The Tall Crown Look 

Nomzamo’s hair is arranged high on her head, gathered tightly so her face is open and clear. The braids rise upward, bending into big round shapes that stand tall above her. Each round piece connects smoothly, almost like rings made out of hair. The height and shape give her the look of wearing a tall crown made from braids. It feels grand but still natural, showing both beauty and confidence.

The Halo Ring Look

The Cultural Crown Look

The hair and dress together show pride, history, and beauty, all at once.
