I like reading, interacting, socializing and researching a lot.
I also love creating new lace wigs with beautiful highlights, ombre & two tone custom hair styles for my wonderful customers.

I love the sophisticated hair glam look.
A lot of my custom-made stock custom Peruvian, Mongolian, Malaysian, Cambodian, and Brazilian virgin hair are inspired by super hot ladies like Beyonce, Tyra Banks and Kim Kardashian.
90% of my customers all want to look glamorous and have that perfect diva hair look.
I love my customers. They always want the best hair, and I always give them just that.

Who are your clients?

My clients range from Nigerian governors' wives/daughters to Nigerian celebrities and Nollywood actresses.

Can you tell us some of your biggest clients names?

Sure, there are hundreds of fabulous Nigerian ladies wearing Bisola Hair, but I'll tell you the most recent big clients names i've been giving permission to use their names in this interview. Just two days ago, senator Florence Ita Giwa purchased the Bisola Hair. She rang me personally and was very happy telling me "Bisola your Peruvian virgin hair is very good quality. So soft- fantastic good hair, no shedding, no tangles, no knotting hair."

I was so thrilled with senator Ita Giwa comments; especially coming from a top lady who wears original 100% human hair. It meant a lot to me.

Another lovely high profile customer of mine is Nollywood Actress Ini Edo. Yesterday, when she received my hair, we chatted on the phone she said she was very happy with my 24 inch, Mongolian virgin silky hair weave, and in her next photo shoot Ini Edo said she'll shoot wearing the Bisola Hair.
Once again, I was very pleased, as these fabulous ladies love and are wearing the Bisola hair.

I have quite a lot of Nollywood Actresses now wearing the Bisola hair, like the Gorgeous Mercy Aibge, Pretty Nkiru Sylvanus, Sexy Angela Okorie and the stunning babe Biola Ige.

What has been your most remarkable experience on the field?

I've met great people, who've become wonderful hair customers.


How do you attract customers?

Honestly speaking, 90% of our happy customers come from recommendations, refferals from customers who have purchased the bisola hair in the past. I guess the rest is from buy human hair lace wigs online google, facebook and twitter.

What's your perception of the fashion industry in Nigeria

Nigerian fashion is brilliant. I just love it!! Very colorful and good material patterns.


Who is your favorite Nigerian fashion designer?

There's a few Bunmi collections, Yvonne Nwosu, wow these ladies designs are real nice, very original, very classy!

No never, I'm a strong believer in God. God never fails in those that believe in him and work hard.

I was asked to enter a beauty pagent from my previous beauty modelling jobs.
I entered one, won a few modeling contracts, like advertising for skin care products, lip sticks etc.
It was a lovely experience, so nice to be a beauty queen. (Smiles)


You live in New York and London, how does it feel like, being a Nigerian entrepreneur in a foreign place.

Well, London is where I was born in, and New York I live in, so it's not foreign at all to me.
My hair customers love the bisola hair so I guess that keeps me going and producing wonderful top hair style celebrity custom full lace wigs unit systems online.
