New nails and braids make Maweni feel like a baby

In the video, Maweni said she felt and looked like a baby after the hairstylist finished braiding her hair.

In awe of her new look, the newly-wed laughed as she approved the hair, saying she looked adorable.

"OMG, I look like a baby. Guys, can you see this? I look so young. I love this. I am tired of hair, hle," she laughed.

Maweni admitted she went for a laid-back look rather than another lace weave install.

Briefly News spoke to hairstylist and owner of Vicky's hair salon, Victoria Eghan, about how to care for braids and make them last longer.

"Most people assume that if you have an afro, you risk having your braids look old very quickly as opposed to someone who has silky hair. However, that is not true. To make braids last long it is important to keep them moisturised at all times using hairspray that are of good quality.

"Hair food is also essential in keeping the scalp healthy. Another step that is often overlooked is shampooing your hair. With all the products used, they can cause a build up in your scalp. Washing your hair with shampoo and using leave-in conditioner, can rid your scalp from all the oily build-up, providing you with a fresher scalp and ultimately fresher looking braids that can last for months."

Maweni's last look was at her all-pink brunch, where she rocked a silky long weave.
