Something a little bit different...

Shivani is a 15 year old singer from Leicester who was discovered after entering Junior Star Singer Leicester in 2017.

I met her last Saturday in Soundbox Studios in Sutton where she was recording her second single, 'Sorry'. While she was there, we took the opportunity to interview her for our 'Into the Mic' feature.

Easy effective ways to maintain your hair like Shivani 

When meeting Shivani one of the first things I noticed, apart from the amazing tone of Shivani's voice, was her hair.

Her luscious locks seemed to dance as she moved, so I obviously had to find out her secret and we came to the conclusion that it came down to three things.

1. Coconut Oil 

Shivani says that this is one that her friends find weird but everyone in her family uses coconut oil - which I can vouch for - as it really does help your hair.

2. No heat 

Announcement: Shivani Kumar does not straighten her hair! (Or at least avoids it as much as possible). Heat can be very damaging for your hair so avoid the straighteners! Miss Kumar has managed to keep her hair long and thick.

3. Hair always in plaits

Coupled with no heat this can be a major source of protection for Shivani's hair. Plaits protect hair from the environment meaning that there is less wear and tear.

Start following Shivani's hair care rules in order to maintain and improve your hair.
