KSI's Hair Stylist Is Changing The Afro Game | HOOKED ON THE LOOK

CELEBRITY HAIRSTYLIST Shamara Roper has made a name for herself by crafting gravity-defying hair sculptures, adored by the likes of KSI, Clara Amfo and Jorja Smith. Specialising in textured hair and drawing inspiration from her Jamaican roots, Shamara calls her work rebellious, pushing the boundaries of hairstyling. After working in the industry for over 10 years, Shamara now hopes to share her experience with the next generation of girls and young women who aspire to follow in her footsteps. Shamara is also advocating for more media representation of Afro-hair and campaigning for funding curriculums specifically for textured hair. Shamara tells Truly: "Representation of Afro-hair is important because once you have representation, you have understanding. Once you have understanding, you have less ignorance."
