Noma Mkhize (played by Portia Gumede)


Noma is a curvaceous 35-year-old hairstylist and the heart of the group. Sassy and a straight-talker, she regularly provides a shoulder to cry on for all of her clients and friends. Noma can always be counted on to give them her honest opinion about their endless relationship woes even if they don't want to hear it.


Raising a teenage son on her own while running a business and being an amateur therapist leaves little time for romance for Noma, so she figures she doesn't need it. But Cupid may have other plans in store for her. Will she run from it or embrace it with wild abandon?
