Balogun Market is a hub for different household and fashion items ranging from clothes to shoes, home appliances, hair products, and much more.
Deep in the heart of Lagos Island, nestled within the bustling Balogun Market, lies a treasure trove for hair enthusiasts: the human hair section.
On this week’s episode of Inside Market, IbrandTv took a dive into the vibrant world hair vendors.
We met passionate traders who understand the trends of making Lagosians look fabulous in all kinds of weaves.
One of the hair traders, Aliu Ugochukwu, has been weaving magic with hair for over a decade.
The hair vendor was introduced to the business by his brother in 2011.
Also, Aliu has witnessed firsthand the transformative power of a good weave.
However, the path to success hasn’t been without its hurdles.
Despite the obstacles, the allure of the business is undeniable.
The hair on offer ranges from luxurious donor hair costing up to 900,000 naira, to more affordable options like Peruvian hair and bone straight styles.
