Long gone are the days when women are ashamed of wearing wigs. They are one of the most convenient protective styles out there at the moment.
But, what happens after you pay for a wig and it starts to look a little, shall we say raggedy?
Well, this London-based wig laundry service has the answer.
Yomi Onashile, Founder of The Wig Bar London, came up with an affordable way to refresh your wig in as little as 24-hours.
“Wigs swiftly became a large part of my life, but little did I know how big a part they would play,” Yomi said in a statement. “After feeling frustration at the lack of high-quality affordable wigs on the market, I began making them myself and later, for friends and family. This demand quickly spiraled into a business and soon I was taking orders from customers I’d never met.”
