Rapper and singer Sho Madjozi had social media in a frenzy after displaying her sparkling braids.

With the children’s annual break around the corner, many parents will be searching high and low for trendy tidbits often forbidden at schools.
This may include Sho’s sparkling braids she shared on her social media.
