Wig life just got better thanks to the latest offering from Wig Bar London – a new ‘wig-only laundry service’.
As consumerism shifts to a more conscious mode of operation, one area that won’t be left behind is the hair industry and more specifically, wigs. Whatever a woman’s decision to wear a wig, it can be a costly habit with many pieces not withstanding wear and tear.
For this reason, London entrepreneur Yomi Onashile has created a business dedicated to revamping wigs in order to help wearers extend the lifespan of their investment buys and leave them looking as-good-as-new at a fraction of the cost.
About the Wig Bar London
The Wig Bar London is a new wig maintenance service that welcomes all human hair wigs from customers around the world. Customers simply post in their wig with any special requirements and a few days later (or 24 hours via the express service), the wig will be returned having undergone a thorough transformation.
Speaking of the launch, Founder Yomi Onashile said;
“I’ve had an appreciation for wigs since my mid-twenties, when I discovered them after searching for a solution that would protect my hair at the same time as allowing me to experiment with different looks. They swiftly became a large part of my life, but little did I know how big a part they would play…A few years later, following 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.”
“New wigs are fantastic and whilst they are very popular, premium quality pieces still don’t come cheap. I wanted to create something that was accessible for all, so I launched the Wig Bar London –this provides a maintenance service that increases the longevity of our customer’s favourite wigs, leaving them looking brand new but at a fraction of the cost.”
