How to Be a South African Khoi Khoi
"Khoi khoi" is a term used to define the South African street trend. Which is really growing in South Africa and since it's the leading country leading in Africa, it's influencing neighboring countries with new trends. The style is basically a South African version of harajuku. Street trends are growing dramatically in South Africa, from the smarteez, which are basically nerdy and colorful, brown on the inside and colorful on the outside (hence the term smarties), to biltongs, which are dark, punk and Gothic, and lastly pantsula.

-
1Have confidence. Being Khoi is all about being confident and a little bit dramatic. You will need tons of confidence, because some people might make fun of the clothes you wear. So the first step is to try to chin up.
-
2Try designing your clothes by yourself. DIY fashion is very much praised in the khoi community. Come up with creative stuff, like DIY scarves, skirts or funky shorts! Remember, keep it expressive and funky!
-
3Next time you're going shopping, these should be your must haves:
- Chucks! Black or Colored chuck-taylors are essentials. Or simply get any flat sneaker.
- Bold sneakers, Nike (Jordans are highly preferred), but you can get bold shoes from any local shop.
- Skinny jeans, different colours.
- Thick rimmed glasses, in different colours.
-
4Go crazy on your hairstyles. Dye or cut, grow an Afro or do dreadlocks, it's all up to you. Just make sure that your head doesn't look too like everyone else's.
-
5Go dramatic on everything you do. Remember Khoi Khoi started in a South Africa, so it's the way South African kids express their freedom and celebration. Go expressive, and go crazy!
