IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN CAPE TOWN when I make my way to the Photo&Film Studio in Wembley for our Glamour Hair cover shoot. Our Cover star, Tyla, has flown in from Joburg. I notice that her energy is low when she arrives and I introduce myself as soon as she settles into the makeup chair. Within minutes, she transforms right in front of our eyes. There's a notable shift in her energy when she spots International Marketing Manager, Amanda Carpede who is on set to support the superstar on behalf of Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils. Theirs is a relationship that started on social media when the brand noticed Tyla was tagging them on her posts. On shooting her shot, Tyla says Aunt Jackie's played a significant role in her natural hair journey, only for her but her sisters too which speaks to the impact and evolution of the partnership. Amanda's energy is infectious, and from their interactions, it's clear that they share a mutual love and respect. The hair care brand which is founded on the principles of community, embodies this far beyond its personal offering. Not only did Amanda show up but she came bearing gifts; Tyla's favourite products from the new range, for her and her sisters. She's visibly excited; feeding off Amanda's energy, she has a spring in her step as she makes her way to our fashion director, Luke Diva for her first look. "I was tired when I walked in but I feel more energetic now, my tribe is here, the music is playing and I'm ready to shoot." This is her moment, and she's brought her A-game.
