  • Nene Leakes Shares Beauty Secrets in Sophisticate’s Black Hair Magazine (November 2012)

    Sep, 17 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Nene Leakes of The Real Housewives of Atlanta covers the November 2012 issue of Sophisticate’s Black Hair magazine.

    [READ: Photo of Full RHOA Season 5 Cast Revealed (On Set w/Nene Leaeks)!]

    In this special edition, Leakes shares her a few of her beauty and haircare secrets… one of which is that her Blonde comb over ‘doo is really all hers!

    Details below…

    Nene may or may not be one of your favorite “housewives” but you can’t take away the fact that she’s stepped her game up a hundred thousand trillion since the first season of the show.

    [READ: Nene Leakes Style Transformation Over The Years... PHOTOS]

    The “housewife” you love to hate is (for the most part) pretty stylish. Her hair never moves and her makeup is always flawless.

    Nene says her daily routine is really no different than any working woman and she takes great pride in her looks and appearance.

    [READ: Hot or Not? NeNe's Itty Bitty Mini (PHOTOS)]

    For those of you who were wondering about her hair… she claims it’s her real hair and that she only adds a track in her bang.  I don’t think she mentioned why she chose to go with a platinum doo but she does reveal her maintenance routine.

    How often does she shampoo and condition her hair?

    Leakes tells the mag she gets her ‘doo shampooed and conditioned twice a week and has it done 3 to 4 times a week (due to the fact that she’s constantly on camera).  Oh… and she’s au naturel… no perm/relaxer at all!

    As for her face… Nene says she doesn’t pack a separate purse of makeup and cart it around in her bag.

    On the RHOA she’s always seen refreshing her lipgloss, and that’s because she only carries with her is lipgloss, powder and the sheets to dab her face.

    Nene has several different projects going on… her shoe line, her “New Normal” television show…etc.  But she will most definitely be back for Season 5 of the Real Housewives of Atlanta.

    The exposure from the other shows are great…. but RHOA is how she keeps cashes those TRUMP CHECKS!

    The November 2012 Fall Special Edition of the Sophisticate’s Black Hair is on stands now. Cop That!

        All hers, well she paid for it so it is, but, she needs to give it back and the money to the white man she bought it from, sorry, a white man’s toupee on a black woman is tacky and when its blond, even more.

        As for the makeup, wrong brand, too strong which is why I think her face is always broke out and has to be photoshopped in pictures.

      Also her wine. Ms. Moscoto (I believe) and it’s rummored that she will have a plus size clothing line. She also has a fast food italian resturant or should I say quick serve pizzaria in one of the major air ports….you go Nene. It’s also rummored that she is shopping a reality tv show (will she be the next Shunie O’Neal??) GOT’S TO GIVE THIS DIVA HER PROPS. I think she should shop a talk show. Bethany talks over people too, and talks too fast, and has too much anxiety…but Nene, she will have a great talk show. She has people skills that is why she has Bravo Andy in her pocket and can get b*tches fired. bye, bye Kim Z.

      She also should have someone taper it in the back. Hate how it sticks out away from her neck…just there..no style at all…

      Love that she used an opportunity to promote herself to bigger things..now stop talking about how rich you are…how much everything cost…that’s not necessary..

That’s a damn 27 piece in the front and her real hair is in the back…I get 27 pieces all the time and trust me, that’s what she’s rocking in the front of her head. Mine are usually all over, but you can leave your real hair out in the back if you want, especially when it’s cut really short. I can’t believe this lady lied like that. Jesus Christ. I try to like NeNe but she’s so phony.

      I think her make up looks nice and fresh. I love seeing colors on dark skinned women. I also like her hair. I know a lot of people do not like the blonde, but again, it works as a contrast to her dark skin tone. And I am not a NeNe fan. I think she’s way too loud and agressive. But women seem to like her and look up to her, so she could keep doing her thing to continue being a light to those women who may not have any one else to look up to.
