Hair dressing is regarded as a woman’s profession and only a handful of men have ventured into braiding, plaiting and make-up but 21-year-old Tumediso Batshani is one of the few who have embarked on changing this narrative.

The Goshwe-born entrepreneur and founder of Tumie Makeover says he ventured into beauty therapy and hairdo to follow in his mum's footsteps. He told Arts & Culture that from a very young age, he used to play with dolls and liked keeping neat.
