Product Review - JL Wigs

Recently boarded the wig train and I'm loving it!

Unlike other products I review here, I wasn't approached by the brand but I saw the wig on a friend and loved it.

Asked her where she got it and she gave me the details.

I've only ever worn a wig once in my life and after it fell off my head at Marylebone while I was running to catch the train to Bicester I swore I'd never go near one again until I saw the JL Wig.

JL Wigs are made from 100% human hair ranging from Peruvian to Malaysian and much more. Pricing depends on the length and type of hair. The wigs come with comfortable adjustable bands and/or combs to enable them feel more secure. 

I got mine in Mongolian Straight and in 16", 18" and 20", with a 12" closure.

Funny story, being a total blonde beneath my melanin, I didn't realize when I ordered  a wig with a middle part I could actually move it a few inches to the left and turn it into a side part.

The dynamos from JL Wigs explained this to me and I am still shocked at the sheer ingenuity. Its like getting two wigs for the price of one! It is so versatile I even managed an updo.

I am now considered a terror on Lagos streets, because once work is over and I enter my car, my wig comes off to reveal the patewo beneath. I enjoy seeing drivers get whiplash gawking at my Simbi-ness.

The ease and functionality is beyond.


Side Part

Center Part

Amazing!


All in my mission to baby my natural hair as much as possible, I'm definitely going to be wigging it *facepalm* probably till next year.

The hair itself is fantastic, minimal shedding, feels great, needs very little brushing, silky but still has quite a heft to it. I really dislike limp hair.

I heartily recommend getting one.

See below where I'm demonstrating my heartiness with a big shit-eating grin on my face.

Savvy & Chic Garden Party Giveaway

This is soooo late and I know Dabs is going to have my guts for garters...but better late than never, no?

So the lovely Dabs of the Savvy & Chic Beauty Hub (I blogged about my visit to her salon HERE) is having a floral themed garden party this weekend and the kicker is that I get to invite one fab reader of ThirdWorldProfashional to come with me and hunt down small chops.

The event is STRICTLY by invitation, so if you want a chance to have a relaxing, scrumptious, socially interactive time as we discuss the role of bloggers in todays society, while still keeping an eye out for cocktails and small chops, (but that's just between us), then ENTER, ENTER, ENTER!

Please note, Giveaway is restricted to Lagos readers only or anybody that can be in Lagos this weekend and please, for the love of Carrie Bradshaw, adhere to the theme. Its a floral themed event so floral head-pieces, dresses, accessories etc.

I'm expecting a fly TWP tag team so please don't dull. Pictures taken at the event will also feature in the next issue of the Savvy & Chic Beauty Hub Magazine.

Date: Sunday 28th September 2014
Venue: To be disclosed to the winner only
Time: 3pm prompt

You can enter by leaving a comment below with a haiku addressing the failing standards of education in post-war nations....

Hahahahahaha

Please enter by leaving a comment with your name and email address so I can contact you when you win. Winner will be chosen by a random number generator.

Since I'm operating on Nigerian time and kicking off this Giveaway with just a week to the event, it is only valid till Wednesday. Giveaway closes Wednesday at 12pm, winner will be announced shortly after.

So yay! I'm excited! Looking forward to picking my partner in crime for the day, and after it we definitely have to go for a fro-yo to calm our nerves.

Good luck!

Love and light xx
