How Fisayo Longe Built Kai Collective into a £6M Fashion Brand, Making £2M a Year
Fisayo Longe’s journey wasn’t exactly what she had planned. She wanted to study law, but when she didn’t meet the cut-off, she had a choice—wait it out or make the most of the setback. She chose the latter.  Her mother had just one condition: if she was taking a gap year, she had to get a real job. And that was exactly what she did. She became a gap-year student at KPMG, wowed them so much that they decided to put her on a retainer work-study scheme. Fisayo was an auditor at KPMG and studied accounting at the University of Durham, but things took another turn. She quit her job, got kicked out of Durham, and went to London to focus on her own thing: fashion. Fisayo has always loved fashion, lifestyle, and travel. And so, as a traveler, she’d always go fabric shopping whenever she was in a new locale, use the fabric to make unique clothes true to her maximalist, main-character style, and blog about it on the blog she created in 2012: Mirror Me. Her followers and community wanted in on the tea, and she saw a demand. She could sell her style.

How Often Should You Revamp Your Wig?
Wigs are a fantastic way to express our style, protect natural hair, or simply switch things up. But just like natural hair, wigs need proper care to stay in top condition. One of the most common questions wig wearers ask is: How often should I revamp my wig? The answer depends on various factors, including the type of wig, how often you wear it, and your maintenance routine. Let’s break it down. Synthetic Wigs Revamp Frequency: Monthly Synthetic wigs are made from artificial fibres, which tend to tangle and lose their lustre more quickly than human hair wigs. Daily wear accelerates this process, especially around high-friction areas like the nape of the neck. If your synthetic wig has persistent frizziness or matting that won’t smooth out with brushing, it’s a clear sign it needs attention. A loss of shine or an overly “plastic” appearance can make the wig look unnatural and tired. Additionally, a stiff or coarse texture that feels far from lifelike is another indication that your wig is due for a refresh. Human Hair Wigs Revamp Frequency: Every 2–6 months. Human hair wigs are more durable and natural-looking, but they’re not invincible. Heat styling, colouring, and regular wear can […] The post How Often Should You Revamp Your Wig? appeared first on BN Style.
