AFWN 2018: The Hair Trends You Should Expect To See On The Runway

Hair Styling and individuality is key for every fashion week as designers will be serving boundary-pushing, above-the-neck statement pieces.

This season’s hair trend spans from loose ponytails to full Afros and curly hair. We look at the hair trends you should expect to see on models at the Africa Fashion Week Nigeria runway.
