They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Nowhere on earth is that more true than right here in Barbados.
Although the island itself is the picture of tropical paradise, containing a wealth of scenic shots that would more than merit a postcard, our beauty reaches way beyond our hills and vales.
The people of Barbados, Bajans (Bay-jans) as they are referred to, have styles all of their own. Trends come and go like the cool Caribbean breeze, and nobody wears the same outfit twice. Every event or special occasion merits a new outfit, hairstyle, nails, and shoes. Styles only last until somebody else does something new.
Hairstyle and colour do not need to look natural once they are trendy. The more outrageous the hair colour and the more intricate the designs on one’s nails, the better they are! If it’s new, it’s good and if it’s a brand name, it’s considered cool!
Just to ensure that our insatiable hunger for new styles is never out of reach; Barbados boasts thousands of beauty salons and boutiques.
On just about every street corner you can find a hairstylist, aesthetician, or fashion boutique, just dying to give you a brand new and exciting look. From braids to waves, leather shoes or gold earrings, Barbados is on the way to becoming the Caribbean’s fashion Mecca.
