Benefits of Braided Wigs

The Benefits of Braided Wigs cannot be overstated. A braided wig can serve as a versatile and convenient option for protective styling, a way to switch up one’s appearance, or a solution for hair loss.

Protective styling is a popular hair care practice among Black women, as it involves tucking away the hair in a way that reduces exposure to heat, styling products, and manipulation. This can help to prevent damage and breakage, especially for those with natural or chemically treated hair. Braided wigs offer a protective styling option that can be easily taken on and off, without the time and effort required to braid one’s own hair.

In addition to the Benefits of Braided Wigs serving as an option, Braided Wigs can also be a fun and easy way to switch up one’s appearance. With a braided wig, you can try out different braid styles and colors without committing to the time and maintenance that comes with actually braiding your hair. This can be especially appealing for those with busy lifestyles or for those who want to experiment with different looks without causing damage to their natural hair.

Finally, Braided Wigs can also be a helpful solution when you are experiencing hair loss. Hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors, including stress, medication, and genetics. For a lot of women, hair loss can be especially traumatic, as the societal expectations surrounding women’s hair can make it difficult to feel confident and beautiful without a full head of hair. A braided wig can provide the illusion of a full head of braids and can help you feel more confident and beautiful while you work on regrowing your hair or finding other solutions for hair loss.

In conclusion, owning a braided wig can be a valuable asset for all women. It can serve as a protective styling option, a way to switch up one’s appearance, or a solution for hair loss. Whether for convenience, self-expression, or self-care, a braided wig can provide numerous benefits for you.

OUR STORY

Vintage Hairs started with a mission: to inspire and impact the world with beauty, style, and purpose.

Ideas are born out of problems. Ours was straightforward: Braids in-salon take hours and are expensive to make and maintain every month.

When our founder relocated from Nigeria to Odessa/Midland for an international assignment, she couldn’t afford to get her hair braided every month at $200 to $500 and still spend hours at the salon getting tucked. The cost of maintaining her hair per year was so high she had to cut it short. (We don’t recommend this.)

Over time, the need to look different from low cut became high. That was when she reached out to other women like her and learned they had similar experiences. She was amazed at how hard it was to find a replacement aside from the usual human and synthetic hairs. At the time, there were others selling braided wigs however they didn’t produce wigs that match the quality of wigs she could wear confidently. Where were the options?

There’s a simple explanation for it. With the hair industry including human hair, synthetic hair, braid extension, and now machine braided wigs dominated by Asians, there has been limited exposure and patronage of AFRICAN BRAIDS thereby limiting the sales of African braids in the international market.

These Asians don’t produce these wigs by patronizing or employing skilled African women thereby taking food away from the hardworking skilled African women and the revenue that ordinarily should be utilized in developing African skills. Africans should patronize Africans just as Asians do theirs. Braided wig is and should be dominated by Africans because it is identified with Africans. We should earn and take the revenue and glory just the way they are taking that of human hair and hair extensions.

Now by circumventing traditional visits to the salon, engaging with friends and clients directly, and by engaging these skilled women we are able to provide higher-quality, better-looking braided wigs at a good price.

We believe that making your hair should be easy, fun, and without pain. It should leave you happy and good-looking, with money in your pocket.

In a third-world country like Nigeria, we are forever asking how we can do more and make a meaningful impact; that starts by reimagining everything that a company and business can be. Our goal is to show that a business can scale, be profitable, and impact people’s lives by using some percentage of each wig unit sold to touch lives.

This is why we are also concerned about the poverty, hardship, and hunger rate in Nigeria. Nigeria was ranked 2nd poorest in food affordability globally by the Institute of Development Studies, United Kingdom. A report by the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics (NBS) detailing poverty and inequality from September 2018 to October 2020, disclosed that 40% of the populace, or 82 million Nigerians live below the international poverty line of $1.90 daily, whilst another 25% or 53 million people are vulnerable. Strongly correlating with ascending malnourishment, food insecurity makes living hellish for the underprivileged.

This is why the team at Vintage Hairs has learned that to make an impact in the lives of 82 million hungry Nigerians, we need to donate and dedicate 10 percent of our sales to Vintage Foundation – a food bank initiative developed to help eradicate the hunger crisis in Nigeria. We also understand that it takes courage, creativity, teamwork, and empathy to impact lives and make a difference in the world.

At Vintage Hairs, we don’t just care about Braided Wigs and recording profits. We are an extension of humanity’s appeal for compassion as we tap the untapped skills of the rural women and support the vulnerable in our society for a better life.

Therefore, when you shop at Vintage Hairs, we utilize 10 percent of your order cost to boost our foodbank initiatives in Nigeria. This is how we intend to give back to our community.

Hence THE MORE WIGS YOU BUY, THE MORE YOU CONTRIBUTE TO OUR CAUSE…Together we can put a smile 😊 on many faces.

Hair and Beauty: The Constancy of Change

The New Normal in Hair Industry

Time happens to everything. But when it comes to fashion, it happens so fast that what was fashionable yesterday may not be fashionable today.

I have observed that beauty though a thing of luxury suffers from the ever-changing time and trends. Hairstyles too being a beacon of beauty with varieties suffers this constancy of change.

Usually, there’s nothing in time that is entirely new to that time, especially in our time. But everything that is in time is unique to that time. It is the uniqueness added by each age that speaks volumes of the spirit of that age. Braids are common in our age but they did not start with us. Braiding dates back over 30,000 years ago.

In the Ancient days before civilization, hair was a symbol of a person’s background, marital status, tribe, and even fertility. Today we’ll be seeing the origin of braids. By the origin of braids, we mean where braids came from. The evolution of braids and where we currently are in the world of braids.

Where did braids start from?
Africa: Braids originally came from Africa. The history of braids dates back all the way to 3500 BC. Africans have been braiding their hair for centuries. In different parts of Africa, unique braided hairstyles were made to identify the different tribes. Literally, all women, children, and most men braid their hair too.

What Are Some African Hairstyles?

Africa has been in the game of braids since 3500 BC. The hairstyle of African braids is popularly known as Cornrows and it is a form of hair plaiting/weaving done to lay flat on the scalp. The African braids (cornrows) are believed to have originated in Egypt around the Nile Valley, from where they spread to other parts of Africa, including among the Fulani, Hausa, Bantu, Maasai, and Yoruba.

Cornrows in Africa have been dated as far back as 3000BC. It was and remained a very popular hairstyle throughout Africa, specifically in West Africa.
Images of women with cornrows have been found in stone age paintings. There are also Native American paintings that show cornrows as a popular hairstyle.

African Threading

As with braids, threading hairstyles were used to depict socio-cultural affluence, as some of the styles are made to resemble crowns or skyscrapers. This hairstyle involves the use of cotton, rubber, silk, or wool threads to completely cover sectioned hair from root to tip.

Egypt
The Egyptians also popularly known as the Northern Africans brought about the development of a braided hairstyle that their people wore. This hairstyle has evolved over centuries and is what we have as the Box braids.

Box braids

This hairstyle as we know it today may be dated back to ancient Egypt at least 3,000 years ago. The braided style was a hairstyle the Egyptian ladies made with the use of extensions to hide greying hair while also making their hair look longer.
During that ancient time, hair was sometimes weaved with extensions and was decorated with jewels, beads, or cowrie shells.

Braided Wigs: The New Normal

The braided wig is the new normal in the hair industry and has stood against the odds of the constant change in history. In other words, braided wigs have only evolved in styles and don’t seem it is going to phase out anytime soon.

A good hair day these days starts with a braided wig and ends with another braided wig. The reason is that we women no longer have the luxury of time to sit stuck in a hair salon shop for a hairdo to suffer tucking by two or more hairstylists while our business suffers from our absence.

We have learned not to braid our natural hair and suffer or endure the accompanying pain but to flirt with differing styles of light and natural-looking braided wigs ordered from vendors online unlike that of our grandparents that were heavy and ugly.

Braids have always and will continue to be in existence. It started with elders braiding their children and these children watching and learning from them.

Styles have changed but braiding patterns have remained the same. Women of all ages are still in the art of braiding hair. The art of braiding has evolved and it just keeps getting better, making it possible for women to have braided wigs and maintain that beauty.

Braided wigs are easy and a pleasant way to forget about hair styling for months, give your hair some rest and protect it from harsh environmental factors. Besides, with the awesome hairstyles in our current era, you will attract attention, admiration, and beautiful smiles.

Braided hairstyles make space for creativity. There are many interesting braiding techniques to make every head unique. You can also experiment with highlights, natural or curly texture, clips, patterns, and shapes. Want to get a view of some Braided wig hairstyles? Check here.

HOW TO SPOT SCAMMERS

HOW TO SPOT SCAMMERS

Shopping has been made easy by the growth in technology to the point that you can stay in the comfort of your home and shop for anything anytime from anywhere.

But this ease comes with its risk – scam. It is now common for scammers A.K.A yahoo boys/girls to get hold of their ‘clients’ because the victim can easily #WIRE money to them without being able to trace them afterward.
This is why the first question to ask before shopping online is the security of the payment gateways.
This is necessary because you want to be able to retrieve your hard earn money if the service/product delivered to you does not meet the description or you fail to receive your order.

One important lesson about scammers is that they rarely accept credit/debit cards such as MasterCard or Visa Card as the transactions through them are all tracked, monitored, and recorded by the financial institutions that issue them. Again, some online payment gateways such as PayPal require many details about the account holder that scammers will never opt for it.

These scammers want to avoid having companies like Mastercard, Citicorp, PayPal, or Bank of America coming after them. So, they prefer payment methods such as Bitcoin, P2P Payment Apps such as Venmo, Zelle, and Cash App, and Wire transfers such as MoneyGram or Western Union transfers.

Ordinarily, these are great payment gateways except that transactions performed through them are less secure.
Be careful of scammers

7 WAYS TO SPOT SCAMMERS

how to spot scammers

1. Please don’t share your passwords, account or credit card numbers, or Social Security numbers.
2. Never pay in advance for a prize. If you are told you have to pay fees or taxes in order to receive a prize, this is a scam.
3. If you are told you must pay right away, it is a scam indicator, be wary. You may be asked to wire the money, send it via courier, or load the money on a prepaid card and send it to them. Your money will become untraceable once it has been sent.
4. Pay no attention to a check where you are asked to return part of the cash-out. Your money will be lost if the check bounces.
5. Consider why someone is trying so hard to offer you a “great deal”. You should be skeptical if it sounds too good to be true.
6. Don’t give out any personal (login details & OTP) or financial information to anyone for any reason. Scammers could use it to commit identity theft or hack into your personal or financial profile.
7. Before you do business with an unknown caller, ask the caller personal questions regarding the information about their name and their company’s name, address, and business license number. If they refuse, it’s likely a scam.
