Short cuts


Short hairs as well as short wigs are also very easy to care for. Short styled wigs are cheaper and affordable than longer wigs.

A great hairstyle can create the difference between feeling ordinary and extraordinary, which is a very thin line. But should you go long, shoulder length or short-short?

  • All this depends on you. There are those of us that look great in long hairstyle and those that look better in short-short styles. And if you are not sure which hairstyle suits you, seek help from your hairstylist or friends. At the end of the day, remember you should wear a style that makes you feel great and fabulous. No need settling for less.
  • Choose your hairstyle from a wide range of styles available in the market. And you don’t have to rock the latest trend, good old hairstyle like bobs and long waves are never ageing.
  • Use wigs and weaves to change your style but make informed choices that will separate you from the ordinary! And don’t shy away from colour, colour can lift you a notch higher and add that glow we so love!

How to take care of your braids:


-STEP 1:Choose the right hairdresser .Some people braid entirely tight and this literally lifts hair from its follicles, leading to hair loss.
-STEP 2:Shampoo hair usually after 2 weeks of plaiting. You need to use apple cider vinegar after washing. Simply mix it with water and spray. You can continue to shampoo it weekly. Washing improves the appearance of braids drastically.
-STEP 3:Condition, condition condition! Conditioning strengthens the hair and maintains a smooth beautiful look.
-STEP 4:Stay away from greases and Vaseline products to avoid clogging.
-STEP 5:Know when to let them out. When you see that your braids are losing the lustre they once had, it’s time to take them out!
