Rorisang in her first starring role.

Bukamina Cebekhulu (Muvhango, Obstruction) co-stars as Zola.

The tagline:

In Kwa-Thema, hair is life and one woman is about to show that it takes more than just a good weave to rule the salon game.

Scenario:

It’s Zola, the queen of perfection, versus Tsholo, a young woman with a dream, and the streets are about to watch the battle unfold.

Zola’s salon, The Luxxe, is where the who’s who of Kwa-Thema come to get their hair "laid".

From high-end wigs to the finest extensions, she’s got everything and she makes sure her clients know it.

But while everything looks perfect, Zola is cold as ice and she doesn’t tolerate any nonsense. Don’t even think of rocking up in a bonnet or you’ll be shown the door quicker than you can say “hairdo”.

But then there’s Tsholo, who’s been kicked to the curb after being fired from The Luxxe. With mouths to feed and bills piling up, Tsholo decides it’s time to open her own salon, even if she’s starting with next to nothing.

While it may lack the luxury of her former workplace, Tsholo’s Salon quickly becomes a warm and welcoming space where the community gathers to share stories, talk about life and find comfort in laughter.

As Zola watches from her throne, determined to crush Tsholo’s dreams, the real battle begins.

Can Tsholo take on the empire that Zola has built or is she in too deep? Will her hustle, the community and her family be enough to defeat the salon queen?
