Award-winning singer Simphiwe Dana wants to be credited for the artistic use of the afrocentric hairstyles. Which dates back to ancient times, by the way. The Ndiredi hitmaker accused actress Nomzamo Mbatha and Shaka Ilembe of appropriating her style and not crediting her.

This opened the floor to her getting roasted on social media, and the jokes just kept coming. Actress Sannah Mchunu joined the bandwagon and dragged Dana for filth.

Simphiwe Dana accuses Nomzamo Mbatha of theft

On Sunday, shortly after the latest episode of Shaka Ilembe aired, Simphiwe Dana took to X (Twitter) to air out her frustrations over the usage of the hairstyles, especially by big brands that do not credit her.

“I'm now fed up with brands appropriating my style. The least you can do is acknowledge where you got the ideas from. I'm talking to you, Shaka iLembe and Nomzamo Mbatha. The other sister I won't mention. It started here. Appreciate, don't appropriate.”

She further stated that this was cringe and it frustrates her.

“Honey, there’s a difference between appreciation and appropriation. You’re not the only one. I’m fed up. It’s deeply disconcerting and cringe.”

In one post, Sannah asked, "What are you guys doing to Ndirediii?"

However, she did not stop there. She also posted an old photo of her rocking a similar hairstyle with the caption, "Does this hairstyle also belong to Ndi. I should apologise."

Vicky, a professional hairstylist, told Briefly News that Sannah Mchunu's hairstyle does not look fully natural. "This particular hairstyle needs one to relax their natural hair. Afterwards, we use artificial donut buns and then sew them onto the hair after we make knots," she said. Vicky said the buns need to be bundled up together to maintain their hold.

"Then, you can accessorise it in whichever way you want to give it that unique look."

“Ndi” for ‘ndiready' is absolutely crazy because?"
