Publish date: 2024-05-09

When it comes to crowning glory, sometimes you just gotta go the extra mile (or kilometre, in this case!).

That's exactly what @itscheymuv, a vibrant African woman, did to breathe new life into her colour-treated hair. Her quest? A Johannesburg salon with a hair guru who could work their magic, and her journey is already inspiring #hairgoals across TikTok.

From damaged to dazzling

@itscheymuv's viral video takes us on a mesmerising journey of hair transformation. We see her arrive at the salon with apprehension, her locks visibly affected by past colouring adventures. But the mood shifts when the hair colourist, a maestro with a seemingly magic touch, gets to work.

Each step is a masterclass in meticulous care. The damaged strands are treated with gentle yet potent formulas and nurtured back to health. The washing is a symphony of soft hands, nourishing products, and the styling? A meticulous ballet of brushstrokes that coax out the hair's hidden potential.

And then, the grand reveal. @itscheymuv emerges with a cascade of blonde brilliance. It's not just the colour – it's the health, the shine, the silky softness that speaks volumes about the skill and dedication behind the transformation.

The perfect trim frames her face, and the strategic highlights add depth and dimension, making her hair beautiful and captivating.

Netizens react to the video

The internet can't get enough. Comments explode with a mix of awe and admiration. Some are stunned by the lengths @itscheymuv went to (literally!), crossing countries for the perfect mane. Others shower her with compliments, mesmerised by the final result.
