Kelly Osbourne's Hair Colour...

Kelly Osbourne, as a public persona, was an awkward teenager, painfully self-conscious, as we all were at her age, and uncomfortable with her body. She wasn't skinny when we got to know her, starved herself at one point, and had her fair share of personal issues. One thing Kelly has done right, all the time and consistently, is embrace and respect her personal style.

Kelly bloomed into a beautiful, smiling flower and in keeping with her personal style, is currently sporting a LILAC hair colour and guess what, she's 'killing' it. She really looks great!

Traditional synthetic hair colours are closer to the normal range of colours found on human heads. Blue black, black, a huge variety of browns, reds and another variety of blondes. Blue black and acrylic reds appeared on Namibian shelves approximately 7 years ago (loved by Goths and so-called Goths) but to date, no lilacs, pinks or greens.

I remember accidentally leaving a colour in for longer than the stipulated time on the illustrated pamphlet and was horrified to see my head was a shade of flaming orange! I hated it, could barely look at myself in the mirror and consequently, covered as much of it as I could. But I digress...

Kelly Osbourne's hair is a reflection of her personality. She wants to be unique, she wants to be her own person, comfortable with her style and choices. She wears this hair colour with pride and styles her tresses to perfection.

Tattoo: Ethiopian Coptic Cross (Meskel) Design

C hristianity arrived on the shores of southern Africa approximately 600 years ago, and unbeknownst to the bright-eyed European missionaries who disembarked from sodden ships at the Cape of Good Hope, it had been practiced on the African continent, and flourished as an independent religion for almost 1,000 years before, in Ethiopia. Today, the oldest Christian faith on the continent, rumoured to be closest in resembling early Christianity, is the Ethiopian Coptic Church (or the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church). The cross is the popular universal symbol of Christianity and across the world, in every Christian community, it remains within the parameters of a simple design (+) , almost 2,000 years old. The Ethiopian Coptic Church is the only known Christian community that produces a remarkable version of the cross, called ''meskel''; even more remarkable, this development occurred independent of the influence of European Christianity. Meskel patterns and des

PRESS RELEASE: Insight Namibia Magazine Celebrates 100th Edition (September 2013)

In a magazine market known for its fly-by-nights and flash-in-the-pans, Insight Namibia cc marks its 100th monthly edition with the September 2013 issue . The first edition appeared in September 2004 and throughout the last nine years, Insight maintained its position as Namibia's premier current affairs magazine . Originally started and currently based in Windhoek, Namibia, the magazine's founders, Robin Sherbourne, David Lush and Tangeni Amupadhi, journalists in their own right, at the time (2004) wrote that Insight was 'born out of a feeling that Namibians yearn for more than just hard news.' Readers were promised a publication that went beyond the daily headlines and covered 'the story behind the story' . The magazine was not started with a bank loan; the pioneers pooled their savings to get it off the ground and to this day, that same financial discipline, has ensured that Insight has never taken a loan to cover its operating, printing and overhead cos

DATING IN NAMIBIA: Rules to Remember (for Women)

Even though many Namibian women marry and have families while relatively young (between ages 21- 28), more and more Namibian women are single and dating, 'in the market', as they say in the West. Historically, in the not-too-distant past (23 years ago only), the movements and personal freedoms of many Namibians were severely restricted and controlled by the Apartheid Regime occupying Namibia until 1989, but fortunately, since Independence from South Africa in 1990 , the status of individuals (men and women), their rights and freedoms, are protected and enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of Namibia . For example, inter-cultural relationships and marriage was illegal 23 years ago, punishable with imprisonment. Despite these amazing new changes in the status of all Namibians, our society is still remarkably conservative (especially rural communities) with regards to the relationships and interaction between men and women. Our parents, extended family, siblings and f
