Reason Why Women of today prefers sold human hair to natural hair – Bisola Iyasara

isola Iyasara is a Nigerian, born in London, partly raised in New York but with a strong ties to Nigeria. She’s a model, motivational speaker and hair specialist consultant. In fact she caught our attention  because of the big buzz the drop dead geourgeous lady is stirring as a result of her human hair range of products which have come to be known as ‘Bisola Hair’.

Bisola Iyasara

Nigerian celebrities from the entertainment world, business and high society rock just about one brand of human hair -’Bisola Hair’. So, what is special about Bisola Hair and human hair in general. Bisola speaks with us:

What’s so special about Bisola hair?

The Brand “Bisola Hair” is a unique brand. It is a concept that centres on originality, genuine products and a world class customer service. It is interesting to note that I personally travel to Mongolia, Peru, and Malaysia to source for authentic, original real and raw human hair which has no tangles, no shedding, no knotting, no split ends, and no grey hairs. All Bisola Hair is unprocessed as there are no chemicals at all in them. I have trained hair stylist specialists that custom-make my lovely customers human virgin hair weft/weave, glueless celebrity French lace/Swiss lace, and bleach knots silk top full lace wigs hair to the highest standards.

What really is the hullabaloo on human hair all about?

It is all about the beauty of a woman. Hair is one of the most important components of a woman’s beauty. A woman’s hair can generate a confidence or a negative complex in her. The hair you wear will invariably enhance your glamour in appearance which is also very important to life. Human hair is the ultimate hair that can revive, stimulate and enhance a woman’s look unlike the synthetic hair alternative. Some women   suffer from alopecia and other hair loss challenges but with adequate treatment and the use of human hair, especially “Bisola Hair”, there is complete restoration of confidence, gorgeousness and sexy look.

What actually started this craze for human hair?

The human hair phenomenon started with women who wanted unique hairstyles but without any compromise and damage to their natural hair. As I said before, it is like a protection for your own hair. Having confirmed the effectiveness of human hair from everyday woman, celebrities, high class ladies etc, the desire by more women to wear it increased. Today, it is a woman’s ultimate hair desire and “Bisola Hair”, the ultimate destination.

Why are they considered better than our natural God-given hair?

Our natural hair in my opinion still remains the best hair any woman can wear but “human hair” in today’s world is more versatile with what you can do with it without damaging your natural hair. For example if you were to bleach your natural hair, it would be instantly damaged but with a “human hair” it acts like a protection against damaging your hair.

We have heard of Indian hair, Peruvian hair and all sorts, why no African hair?

African hair is available but not in commercial quantity as could be harvested from the other locations. Brazilian, Mongolian, Peruvian, Malaysian and others have more natural gifts of faster hair growth than Africans. That makes it comparatively easier for commercialization.

 You seem to target only celebrities, prime minister’s wives, governors’ wives/daughters why?

We target everyday women who want to feel glamorous and sexy.  It is just that a lot of these celebrity’s wives and daughters also wear our hair. Unarguably, it is because we deliver the best that exist in the industry. Our products are for those women who cherish quality and appreciate the elegance of it. We reach out to women who are not celebrities or wives and daughters of influential people, because we want them to feel confident and beautiful without having the makeup and stylist that celebrities have. That is the added value of our hair products.

Can you give a list of  notable people that have rocked the Bisola Hair at one time or another?

I have a lot of Nigerian governors’ wives and daughters, socialites, Nigerian Nollywood actresses and celebrities wearing Bisola Hair. Bisola Hair is a professional specialist brand. We protect the names of our big clients, as a lot of these ladies do not want people to know the secrets of the hair that they are wearing. I can mention few of our clients that have given me permission to use their names in this interview. Senator Florence Ita Giwa, Senator Bose Balogun, First lady Hanah  Zambugi, Honorable Omosedei Igbinedion, Top business lady owner of Polo Avenue, Jennifer Obayuwana, Nollywood actresses; Ini Edo, Bukky Wright, Dayo Amusa, Mercy Aigbe, Nkiru Sylvanus, Omo Iyasara and Biola Ige.

 Do you honestly think human hairs can enhance true beauty of a woman and how?

Remember that “beauty” comes from within you. Having said that, it is obvious that such natural beauty can be enhanced through the type of hair a woman wears. In this generation where climatic and environmental alterations can degrade the growth of a woman’s natural hair, the art to enhance it becomes necessary. The place of human hair in a woman’s beauty is simply priceless.

Since you have toured the world in the course of your business, which nationality do you think has most issues as far as natural hairs are concerned?

Issues with natural hairs transcends  borders and nationality. It is simply an individual issue like other human issues. Hair loss is not peculiar to women from any nationality, but common challenge associated with women. But conservatively speaking, African women may have more challenges with their natural hair than others. The factors could range from environmental to genetically related causes.  The good news is that Bisola Hair is out to bridge the gap.

Your profile says you undertook medical hair course, what exactly is that?

The medical hair course that I took in New York was one of the steps to perfect my passion for hair and its related challenges, launching me into the world of a professional hair consultant. That means that when I speak about hair, I am an authority in it.

 You were once a model, would you say doing this hair business is more lucrative than modelling or a career in entertainment?

My days of modelling and other glamour laced activities are not comparable to the career satisfaction that I derive being in hair business. It’s more of the inner satisfaction than the financial remuneration. My hair business is a passion beyond boundaries. The enhancement   of a lady’s look by wearing Bisola Hair is already a joy beyond money. When a lady wears Bisola Hair, she wears along with it, many other things, including good self-esteem, gorgeousness, confidence, genuineness and many others. As gifted multi-task individual, I still reach out to my other activities like motivational speaking but my ultimate satisfaction lies in my hair business.

Biography of Thomas L. Jennings inventor of the first dry-cleaning Machine

Thomas L. Jennings (1791–1856) was an African-American tradesmanand abolitionist in in New York City, New York. He was an African American who operated a tailoring and dry-cleaning business, and in 1821 was the first African American to be granted a patent. Jennings became active in working for his race and civil rights for the black community. In 1831, he was selected as assistant secretary to the First Annual Convention of the People of Color in Philadelphia,Pennsylvania, which met in June 1831. He helped arrange legal defense for his daughter,Elizabeth Jennings, in 1854 when she challenged a private streetcar company's segregation of seating and was arrested. She was defended by the young Chester Arthur, and won her case the next year.

With two other prominent black leaders, Jennings organized the Legal Rights Association in 1855 in New York, which raised challenges to discrimination and organized legal defense for court cases. He founded and was a trustee of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, a leader in the black community.

                                                  Early Life 

Thomas L. Jennings was born to a free black family in New York City. As a youth, he learned a trade as a tailor, which included dry-cleaning. He built a business and married a woman born into slavery. Under New York's gradual abolition law of 1799, she was converted to the status of an indentured servant and was not eligible for full emancipation until 1827. Children born to slave mothers before 1827 were considered to be born free, but were required to serve apprenticeships to her master until they reached their mid to late 20s.  He and his wife had three children, including two daughter's 

   

                                                   Career 

Jennings built a business as a tailor and dry cleaner, and was well-respected in the community. He developed a process called "dry scouring" for cleaning clothes, for which he applied and received a patent from the state of New York on March 3, 1821. He spent his early earnings on legal fees to purchase his wife and some of children out of slavery. Their daughter Elizabeth Jennings was born free in 1827 and became a schoolteacher and church organist.

Jennings also supported the abolitionist movement and became active in working for civil rights of free blacks. He was active on issues related to emigration to other countries; opposing colonization in Africa, as proposed by the American Colonization Society; and supporting expansion of suffrage for black men.

                                     Patent  Controversy 

Jennings' success in gaining a patent resulted in a considerable amount of controversy. The U.S. patent laws of 1793 stated that "the master is the owner of the fruits of the labor of the slave both manual and intellectual," thus slaves could not patent their own inventions; the efforts would be the property of their master. But, Thomas Jennings was a free man, so he gained exclusive rights to his process. In 1861 Congress passed a law to extend patent rights to slaves.

                                            Civil rights activism 

Thomas Jennings was a leader in the cause of abolitionism and African-American civil rights. After his daughter, Elizabeth Jennings, was forcibly removed from a "whites only" streetcar in New York City, he organized a movement against racial segregation in public transit in the city; the services were provided by private companies. Elizabeth Jennings won her case in 1855. Along withJames McCune Smith and Rev. James W.C. Pennington, her father created the Legal Rights Association in 1855, a pioneering minority-rights organization. Its members organized additional challenges to discrimination and segregation, and gained legal representation to take cases to court. A decade after Elizabeth Jennings won her case, New York City streetcar companies stopped practicing segregation.

Osama bin Laden still alive, and living in Bahamas says Edward Snowden.

Edward Snowden said that he has evidence showing that Osama bin Laden is still alive and well.

In an interview to the Moscow Tribune, Snowden said Osama was living in the Bahamas, on the payroll of the CIA.

Snowden told the newspaper, “I have documents showing that Bin Laden is still on the CIA’s payroll. He is still receiving more than $100,000 a month, which are being transferred through some front businesses and organizations, directly to his Nassau bank account. I am not certain where he is now, but in 2013, he was living quietly in his villa with five of his wives and many children.“

“Snowden is at present a fugitive. He flee US after leaking documents about the NSA’s surveillance programs.“

India.com reports:

The report also said that Snowden previously too made some unreported allegations about Osama Bin Laden

Snowden goes on to say that CIA had orchestrated fake death of the former leader of al Qaeda.

He claims that Osama was transported with his family in an unrevealed location in the Bahamas.

The report further quotes him as follows – “Osama bin Laden was one of the CIA’s most efficient operatives for a long time. What kind of message would it send their other operatives if they were to let the SEALs kill him? They organized his fake death with the collaboration of the Pakistani Secret services, and he simply abandoned his cover. Since everyone believes he is dead, nobody’s looking for him, so it was pretty easy to disappear. Without the beard and the military jacket, nobody recognizes him.”

Not only this, Snowden categorically states that he will talk about the documents which prove Laden is alive in book which is likely to be released in September.

However, Snowden’s claims have not been substantiated or confirmed by any other source.

The US government has filed espionage charges against Snowden for revealing classified NSA documents to journalists.

How to look more matured, even when much more younger

new trends and ‘how to’-posts that you can use if you need a little help, a few tips or just some inspiration on what to wear where and how! Personal Stylist is a column that will answer some of the many questions we receive on a daily basis pioneering with a question from Cherie, who struggles with looking too young and fearing not being taken seriously. You too can ask a question on the comment icon below

I am 24 and heading to law school this fall. The only thing is, I am told often that I look like I’m 17, so at this point, older professionals do not take me seriously. I wear make up and dress my age for the most part, so I am at a loss as to what to do. Any suggestions?

Many search for answers and ideas that will make them look younger, but if you’re one of those people, including yours truly, who’ve always looked younger than they are, you sometimes need to put some effort into looking older. Here are some ideas by Joswids Blog on how to look more mature.

The Dos And The Don’ts

Like with any style or trends there are some dos and some don’ts that are good to keep in mind when going shopping or getting dressed. Take a look at these in order to start looking more mature.

DOs

Heels: Cherie writes that she mostly wears flip-flops. Heels will give you a better posture making you look more ‘in control’. Of course, who can stand walking in heels to class, so a pair of wedges will here do the trick.

Hair: Pulling the hair back will give you a more mature look without looking like a school teacher from 1960.

Skirts: Pencil skirts are elegant and feminine skirts scream professional business woman. For a young woman, we also suggest tulip skirts as pictured below.

Blazers: A classic item every woman needs in her wardrobe. Can dress up or dress down any outfit and will make you look elegant and sophisticated.

Handbag: A modern leather handbag in a fairly classic design is a great choice in stead of a handbag made of fabric.

DONTs

Slouching: Avoid slouching and clothes that make you appear like this. Hold your head high and straighten your back. This includes sweatshirts, which are great for relaxing, but not for going somewhere you want to be taken seriously.

Prints: T-shirts with cartoon characters.

Shape: Shapeless dresses.

Pastels: Items in pastels like bubblegum pink, light blue, sea green.

Some of the items pictured below are beautiful [like the Valentino headband] and may be suitable for some readers, styles and occasions, but they do show what will make people look younger and not more mature.

Ideas for your hairdo…

Instead of wearing your hair in a ponytail or letting in down without really making any effort to make it look like a hairdo, put your hair up in a bun like these Hollywood actresses pictured below. The bun can be perfectly pulled back and it can be messy. Either way it will make you look more mature and elegant.

Buns are fairly easy to make, but a good tip is to wash your hair the day before you’ll be ‘needing’ this hairdo, as freshly washed hair is a little harder to work with. However, there are many products that will make the hair easier to work with like a texture balm.

Inspirational Outfit…

Here is a look that will make you look more mature, however still keep it trendy and suitable for a young professional woman. The key is to take classic items and mix in some fun and feminine accessories. Dressing completely traditional and old-fashioned will not make people think you’re more mature – that will make them think you have no personality, which means it’s important to stay true to yourself and have a personal style at the same time.

This outfit is very classic consisting of a pair of pants, a silk blouse, black heels  and a blazer, however choosing a loosely fitted blouse instead of a classic one and a pair of tight fitted pants makes this outfit right for a young woman. Instead of the necklace, a scarf would also do the trick of making it more fun and trendy. And by scarf we don’t mean a small silk one, but rather a larger scarf with an exciting print.

What is "DATING"

These are a few frequently asked questions about dating. If you have questions of your own or need more information, you can drop your questions on the comment icon below or contact us on the contact list of our main page our trained chancellors would get back to you b4 14hours.

What is dating?

“Dating” means different things to different people, particularly across generations. At Joswids blog, we define “dating” as two people in an intimate relationship. The relationship may be sexual, but it does not have to be. It may be serious or casual, straight or gay, committed or open, short-term or long-term. The important thing to remember is that dating abuse can occur within all kinds of intimate relationships.

So, are we dating?

Whether you call it “dating” or something else, both people should agree on a definition and the same ground rules for the relationship. Keep these questions in mind:

• Do you have romantic feelings for this person?
• Are you and the person you’re interested in both looking for a committed relationship?
• Do you hang out or go on dates without a group of friends?
• Is the status of your relationship something you’ve shared with others in person or online, like on Facebook?
• Do both people in the relationship agree that it’s exclusive?

Does “hooking up” count?

Hooking up is a broad term, but generally it refers to casual encounters between two people who can be friends but don’t have to be. They may or may not be your only partner and can include sex.

Even if you are “hooking up,” your partner should not be disrespectful or controlling. You should be able to communicate your feelings without being afraid of negative consequences or abuse. Remember the rules for a healthy relationship apply to hook ups, too.

How old do I have to be to date?

There is no exact age when you can or cannot start dating. Many parents set an age according to their perspective, culture, views and beliefs. Consider talking to your parents, family and friends to see what their thoughts are. If you think that talking to your parents might be hard, start with your friends or other adults you trust. Ultimately, what matters is that you personally feel ready and confident to make this decision.

But what if I’m not dating?

There are other types of relationships that might not be considered dating that are just as real and that we can help you with here. Maybe you have a child with somebody but do not consider yourself to be in a dating relationship with that person. Having a child together could feel like more than just dating, or you might have chosen not to be together anymore; there is no one way that relationships must work.

Another possibility is that you and your partner are married. Of course marriage is different from dating in some ways, but you might be surprised at how similar they really are! What makes a dating relationship healthy or unhealthy usually applies to marriage as well.

At loveisrespect, we focus on dating but this site is relevant to everyone.

Is holding a grudge towards my partner unhealthy?

Yes, holding a grudge against your partner is unhealthy, not only for your relationship but also for you. Holding grudges for a long time can result in building up anger, distress, doubt and a lot of other negative feelings that can can make you unhappy and stressed. To maintain a healthy relationship, you need to be able to forgive your partner for their past mistakes. The other option is letting them go. Try to remember: being with a person you cannot forgive is not going to do either of you any good.

Is it unhealthy if I date someone my family doesn’t like?

Dating someone your family doesn’t like can be really hard. It may cause conflict that makes you feel like you can’t be honest or even near the people you love. Consider why your family doesn’t like your partner or why your partner doesn’t like them. Remember that isolation and no one liking your partner are warning signs of an abusive relationship.

We’re not “dating,” how can I be abused?

Abuse can affect all types of relationships, not just long-term or committed relationships. Even if your relationship is casual or you’ve only hooked up once, you can still experience abuse. If something makes you uncomfortable, scared or threatened, you could be experiencing the warning signs of an unhealthy relationship. Learn more about unhealthy relationships.

I’m a teen parent. Does that mean there’s a higher chance of me ending up in a violent relationship?

Sadly, yes. Pregnant and parenting teens are at a higher risk of experiencing physical abuse. Get the stats here. Feeling discouraged? We’re here for you.
