Click2Styles The Magazine is delighted<br />

to be a Media Partner of the 4th<br />

Annual Runway Liberia Show 2018.<br />

My name is Toni Huff Editor-In-Chief<br />

of Click2Media. I Initially started<br />

Click2Styles in 2010 as an online directory<br />

of hairstylist to bridge the gap<br />

between the beauty industry and consumers.<br />

Since then we have had four<br />

major print issues. In the first issue<br />

we featured top stylist from Central<br />

Texas, and in the second issue we<br />

upped the ante and dared to be different.<br />

We introduced our first innovative<br />

double magazine, Click2Styles/<br />

MenInStyle. It is one of the only flip<br />

fashion magazines with Click2Styles<br />

on one side MenInStyle on the other.<br />

MenInStyle captivates the masculine<br />

side of fashion. Click2Styles<br />

rips the style straight off the runway<br />

featuring designs from top to upcoming<br />

fashion designers as their models<br />

grace the catwalk, we highlight<br />

some of the hottest trends from top<br />

hair stylist which adds to our uniqueness.<br />

As expected by our readers,<br />

we have maintained the luxurious,<br />

high-quality images. The magazine<br />

you are holding is a little snippet of<br />

what we do. So, sit back and enjoy<br />

as we continue our journey to bring<br />

you the best in Fashion and Lifestyle.


Afreecaa Brand was created in<br />

early 2016, during a time when African<br />

Culture began its slow but steady<br />

merge into mainstream. Conspicuously,<br />

African fashion references appeared<br />

on the runways of “Fashion<br />

Week” in major cities worldwide, and<br />

in the wardrobes of influential people.<br />

Afreecaa Brand was birthed with<br />

promise, and its purpose was to unite<br />

cultures through fashion and creativity.<br />

Delivering garments that references<br />

all cultures, while showcasing African<br />

fashion flare, Afreecaa Brand is<br />

cultivating apparel for the masses.<br />

Afreecaa Brand strives to speak the<br />

universal language of art, music, and<br />

color, through its one of a kind pieces.<br />

What is Afreecaa Brand? A brand<br />

that cultivates freedom of expression;<br />

a brand that celebrates cultures<br />

using a fashion platform.<br />
