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.

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.

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!

  The word "hater" is the most overused word in Urban America today, but I digress. Goldie I agree, with everything you said!
  
  Koko
  
  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.
  
  Amazon
  
  SO AGREE! Subconscious brain washing….wanna be white women!
  
  Amazon
  
  So agree! What is it with our black sistas and blonde hair!! I CANT!

  TEAM NENE !
- Just Saying
  
  You all are scraping the bottom of the barrel again. Don’t you have anything interesting to put on your website anymore? Stop featuring all these maggots.
- hotdogsonthegrill
  
  Wow all hers, I’m shocked.
- Rechal mender
  
  Sorry Nene but I know for a fact that ain’t your hair! Oh boy!

  SHUT UP!
  
  YEP I SAID IT
  
  I SAID YHE SAME THING.
- Donna
  
  Chile… It doesn’t take much know-how to wash and style a patch of hair., i am however interested in her makeup tips, cause she beats that mug to the high heavens, and yes gawd honey, that takes a lot of special effects, to pull off.
- Vay
  
  Chile that hair came from the Donald Trump wigs, hair pieces and more collection!!! She must have used a Trump Check to pay for it which makes it hers…nevertheless do you NeNe if you like it I love it!!
- McNeil
  
  I have to applaud NeNe. She is really doing the damn thing and loving what she is doing! How many people can say that! It’s like Jeff Lewis said on the Wendy Williams Show – "Reality TV stars do make money, and if they’re not making money, they’re stupid."
- Jackie
  
  You telling me how to care for my hair and all I see on that cover is wigs and weave??? Really???

  Jealousy DO NOT look good on you!
- FREE KROY
  
  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.

  Totally agree with you!Do your thang Nene!

  I remember NeNe from season one, I thought she looked very attractive. Once the checks rolled in she began having surgery. I’m happy for her success, but she really looked better before!!!
- Goldie
  
  Helmet head…that’s what it looks like..
  
  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..
- Sasamina
  
  Damn…I guess she thinks everyone is stupid. 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.
  
  guest
  
  Please stop it! She’s not trying to like you because she dont know you!!! So who cares what you think! So negative! Go ahead and wear your 27 piece.No one cares because NO ONE knows YOU!!!!!!!!!
  
  FREE KROY
  
  what’s a 27 piece?
- bay2theA
  
  her hair should be all hers…it’s like 3 inches at the longest point. idk if i believe that she’s natural. nene used to be my favorite housewife of any franchise but she has changed more than any other housewife from ANY franchise. i wish she was less pretentious and obnoxious so i could be happier about her success…i like when she throws shade on sheree and kim but she has her nose up to everyone now.
- Thickypeachy
  
  Nene is making that bwead!
- Lea
  
  Beauty secrets and hair care….ahhh thanks but no thanks.
- MzJ
  
  You do that thang Mz. NeNe. Though I know what it feels like to have a look that you just adore and prefer not to change, I would like to see a few hair changes. She would be soooo gorgeous in a 16" platinum remy loose curl do.
- koatedkandie
  
  Nene, hair and beauty in the same sentence. Stop playing.
- SuthernHummingbyrd
  
  Chile, the thirst is REAL round here!Get some water, dry mouth heffas, and let Linnethia get this money! I like the fact that she showed how to do work-get on a reality show and then BRANCH OUT. Sheree, you should have taken notes, boo. I will give it to her and Kandi, their grinds are serious.
- deb
  
  Love me some Ne Ne also. Her hair is always so nicely done and the color looks great on her. She’s very tall and she dress nice, for her height. Keep doing you thang Nene. Bye Hater’s
- TooReal
  
  Nene can’t give me not 1 tip, she is ok, but def not beautiful. She look a lot better than she did before though. No shade at all.
- TooReal
  
  I do like the way she dresses for a corned chick.
- suedehead
  
  She’s ugly on the inside and (unsuccessfully) tries her best to keep that from leaking out.
  
  That kinda thing tends to be hard to hide.
- Sara
  
  I’m not a Ne Ne hater in fact I’m proud of what she has managed to achieve but lets face it her number on beauty secret is photoshop. In person she normal,on mag covers its all smoke and mirrors much like all of hollyweird.
- hello kitty
  
  go head girl you betta werk! love me some nene! keep on talkin haters. while yall talkin she walkin in the bank cashin them checks. nene stay winning! thats why hoes so jealous. lmao
- Htown
  
  Whoever hair that is on her head it’s time for a CHANGE she need to switch it up this hair style is played out time for something new and fresh……But I like NENE and love the NEW NORMAL go Nene….,,please use 1 of them checks for some hair girl…,,,Luv Ya!!!
- It’s her business
  
  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.
- It’s her business
  
  so she *should keep doing her thing
- Tina
  
  NeNe had her share of crazy antics on the show, but one thing about her; she used that show to take her career to another level. She is a smart cookie. Some of the other housewives should take note.
- classy is standing out
  
  her makeup is nice….i love the lip colour what brand makeup did she use?
- Stacey
  
  She looks like a clown. It’s criminal of us to hold her ignorant ass up! Sad!
