As my roll model advised, fed up with my own barnet I had a look around the African beauty shops in Brixton for an alternative. If you are looking to buy a wig, value for money and quality wise, you can't really get better than this area. A huge selection of shops with a variety of styles. After much trying on and playing with all of the wigs in the shop I walked out with a £30 real hair shaggy cut. Fabulous! It's great for when you just fancy a change or if you're having a bad hair day. I'd suggest coming in this shop with a friend. You can get a little carried away and end up walking out with a Tina Turner number if you take the fella behind the counters' advice.

She was not pulling the hair properly and when I said it is painful, she said now I know! When I told her she left some hair, she said it's too late and when I asked her for scissors, she just handed it to me . I requested her to do it as it was not practical for me to do it myself as I was unable to see hair properly, she coldly said she won't do it, what if she cut my skin!! My whole skin was left sticky as they don't clean. When I was dressing up, she didn't leave the room and told me I have to rush.. how ill mannered is that... Never ever go there.. it's cheap but not even worth a penny.

Weavetabulous !…read more Maybe it's the prospect of changing my appearance with a flash of a new hair colour or best transformation of all a wig, which inject mystery into my visits to the hair shop. My latest weave palace is Catwalk in Brixton. This hidden gem nestled beneath a railway arch has everything a hair addict could ask for, except for decent customer service. I knew exactly what I was looking for, as I dived in a sea of hair. Human hair, artifical hair, hair in just about every colour of the rainbow. Wavy hair, straight hair, crimped hair and demi waved hair. Hair, hair and more hair everywhere! I was in heaven. I would have stayed there too, if my moment wasn't ruined by a very rude shop assistant. The hair I wanted was on a hanging shelf. Not a problem if the hanging shelf was actually within reach. I'm hardly a munchkin, but seriously that shelf was way too high! Nothing comes between this diva and a bargain, so I walked towards an assistant and asked him to get the hair down for me. I was met with a petulant reluctance, which I last remembered seeing in my friend's little boy; pressing his lips together firmly, as she tried to coax him to eat some vegetables. My non-helper, stomped over to where the hair was, and despite being at least 6 foot, even he had to stand on the step ladder to reach the hair. He was about to disappear, but I made him go back up the ladder to get me some more hair and then I thanked him. His response was to shrug his shoulders and stomp off. Catwalk isn't just about the hair! They sell other stuff - skincare, body lotions, hair oils...lots of things and before I forget cosmetics. Just a little tip though, don't buy your cosmetics (Iman and Sleek) here. The mark-up maybe great for Catwalk, but its pants for you ! Fortunately for Catwalk I am willing to overlook selective overpricing and dodgy customer service. Why ? Economics people! Just between us and let's keep it on the downlow (in case Catwalk raises them !), the price of the hair weave I'm devoted to (no I'm not telling you which!), is very reasonable indeed. Sometimes a diva's gotta compromise and take the rough with the smooth, to land a bargain !

So Catwalk provided me with plastic caps, gel, spray bottles, applicator bottles and a mixing bowl all under a tenner. The staff member knew I needed a basket and kindly handed me one.

Quality is all you look for when you're buying make-up, and specially, face products. The concealer blends fine with other products and all the creams and foundations I've tried give the face a really polished and blemish-free look. You can ask the lovely girls here for any advice and I insist that you ask for the cleansers as well. All the make-up removing products are a great money investment that is more that worth making.
