Briefly News got in contact with Thomas, who runs a hair salon in the South of Johannesburg, who had a lot to say about the odd technique when asked if he would recommend it:

"There's nothing in hair science that says Coca-Cola will wash your hair clean. It's just a myth spread around the world regarding what people do with other things. It's just a myth. People think that when you wash it with Coca-Cola, the hair will twist easily and lock easily, and stuff like that. None of these things have been proven."

In another story, Briefly News previously reported that one man changed the way that many people of South Africa see mogudu. While putting it inside of a wrap is not how it is done traditionally, times are changing, and people are spicing things up.

Mogudu is a combination of chopped tripe and intestines served as a stew, often with hot pap or dumpling. So, when our guy threw it inside a wrap, some people had questions.
