Introduce yourself!
U: My name is Uzy! I am 18! I am a Nigerian but I reside in London.
What is your style philosophy?
U: Dress like your going to see your arch enemy.
How would you describe your sense of style?
U: Individual and unpredictable.
What is your process of deciding what to wear in the morning?
U: I check the weather first! Then I usually pick out my shoes and the rest falls into place.
What are the three favorite things in your closet?
U: This is a hard question! I really cannot pin point my favourite items, I love too many to decide!
What are some of your favorite shops/websites for clothes, shoes and accessories?
U: My favourite for shoes has to be zara! They have great shoes which are reasonably priced, my favourite for clothes has to be vintage and charity shops because I find very unique items and I think it’s nice to have original clothes, I don’t like having clothes which everyone owns because I believe that reduces the amount of time in which you would be able to rock the items as they would eventually go out of trend!

U: I have been natural for 1year and 7months now… I big chopped on December 27th 2011.
How and why did you transition into natural hair?
U: I didn’t transition, my decision to go natural was so sudden, My friend and I watched a naturallycandi video on YouTube and a couple days later we decided to take our weave out and chop our hair, I was too impatient to transition.
What is your signature hairstyle?
U: BOXBRAIDS!! I love them so much , I’ve had them in throughout my natural hair journey, they are a great protective hairstyle!
