osass 1Ayo Makun, the popular Nigerian comedian who is known in showbiz circles as AY, will be hosting the third edition of the much anticipated Golden Movie Awards Africa (GMAA) to be held next Saturday, July 22 in Accra. The multi-talented showbiz personality is expected to bring his funny side, his acting abilities and his sterling master of ceremony process when he mounts the stage next Saturday to compere one of the leading film industry events on the African continent. According to the organisers of GMAA, NMJ Ghana, the decision to choose AY as the host of the third edition of the show was “one anchored on the fact that he is an excellent example of someone who has cross appeal among different genres of the arts both in Nigerian and across the continent.” “Over the years AY has built his profile in showbiz by excelling in all areas he has attempted to exercise his talent,” says Mimi Andani, a director of the GMAA. “AY started as a comedian and has since become a master of many things including being an actor, radio and T.V presenter, writer, director and MC.” They believe his addition will complement the event positively by projecting the GMAA as the pan-African film awards it’s known to be. AY, whose previous movies “30 Days in Atlanta” and “A Trip to Jamaica” (nominated for 2017 GMAA) won critical acclaim, is currently promoting his latest movie “10 Days in Sun City”. Supporting AY to host the GMAA is Nigerian- American multi-talented showbiz personality Osas Ighodaro Ajibade. Osas who was born in America to Nigerian parents has featured in many films as well as in television and theatre productions. The repertoire of films she has featured in include “Ratnik” (2016), “Put a Ring on It” (2016), “Restless City” (2011) and “Killa Season” (2006). Her television production appearances include “Tinsel” (2012-2014), “12 Steps to Recovery” (2012) and “Meet the Browns” (2010). She co-hosted the 2014 edition of the Golden Movie Awards Africa (AMVCA) held in Lagos. “Osas is a young actress who has achieved a lot at her age and she is a fast rising star at that. We think she has earned her place as a co-host of the glamourous Golden Movie Awards to be staged in Accra next Saturday,” says Mimi Andani. The event which is billed to take place at the Movenpick Ambassador Hotel in Accra will start with red carpet for celebrities from all over Africa from 7pm to 9pm with the main event taking place immediately afterwards from 9pm. “We have been known to stick strictly to our time over the period that we have been organising this prestigious event and we are not going to depart from that this time, Mimi noted about the time. She also noted that the show is planned to be a very entertaining event with good music, comedy and a host of other interesting elements for those who will make it to the Movenpick on Saturday. “Hint hint, we have the hottest music diva in Ghana at the moment Ebony performing along with others like Joey B and a big surprise we would like to keep to unleash on the night,” she said. “Trust me, we are cooking a glamorous show with all the pizazz that befits the name of the Golden Movie Awards Africa” Tickets for the event are selling at the Airport Shell in Accra at GHS400.00 for VVIP, GHS200 for VIP and GHS100.00 for regular. The organisers assure those who would purchase any category of tickets that they would certainly have their money’s worth. The Golden Movie Awards Africa (GMAA) is an annual event that seeks to award excellence in movie making on the African continent and the African diaspora. Entries for this year’s GMAA came from West, East, Central and Southern Africa. Countries from which entries were received include Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leon, Cameroon, South Africa and Kenya. Instituted and organized by NMJ Ghana and its partners, the GMAA brings together professionals in filmmaking in Africa once every year to celebrate, promote and reward those who have excelled in their area of the film industry.

Glueless wigs have gained a lot of popularity in recent years due to their convenience, comfort and versatility. Unlike traditional wigs that require adhesive or glue to secure, glueless wigs offer a hassle-free alternative that allows you to achieve a natural and smooth look with ease.

Understanding the Basics of Glueless Wigs

Glueless wigs, also known as lace wigs, have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their convenience and natural look. These wigless caps are designed to mimic the appearance of a natural scalp, creating the illusion that the hair is growing directly from your own head. What sets glueless wigs apart from other wig options are their unique protective methods, which eliminate the need for glue or adhesive.

A glueless wig is a type of wig that is specifically designed to be worn without the use of glue or adhesive. Instead, it uses various security methods such as adjustable straps, combs, and elastic bands to ensure a comfortable and natural-looking fit. This means you can enjoy the benefits of wearing a wig without the hassle of dealing with sticky and potentially damaging glue.

Definition of Glueless wig

When we talk about glueless wigs, we are referring to a revolutionary wig design that has changed the world of hair extensions and wigs. These wigs are carefully crafted to provide a seamless and undetectable hairline, giving you the freedom to style your hair any way you want, leaving the edges of any wig exposed. Want without worrying about doing.

Glueless wigs are usually made with a lace cap that is made using a high-quality, breathable material. This lace cape is designed to blend seamlessly with your skin tone, creating a natural-looking hairline that’s virtually indistinguishable from your own hair. The wig’s integrated straps, comb, and elastic band allow for a secure and comfortable fit, ensuring the wig stays in place all day.

Key Features of Glueless Wigs

Glueless wigs are known for their unique features that set them apart from other wig options:

  1. Adjustable Straps: Glueless wigs are equipped with adjustable straps that allow you to customize the fit according to the size and shape of your head. This feature ensures that the wig stays securely in place even during strenuous activities.
  2. Combs: These wigs come with built-in combs that comb your natural hair for added protection. Combs are strategically placed on the front, back and sides of the wig, allowing you to anchor it firmly in place.
  3. Elastic band: Some glueless wigs have an elastic band that can be adjusted to fit comfortably around your head, offering an even more secure fit. This elastic band helps distribute the weight of the wig evenly, reducing any potential discomfort or stress on your scalp.

These key features work together to ensure that the no-stick wig fits comfortably and securely, giving you the confidence to go about your day without worrying about your hair. Whether you’re attending a special event or just want to change up your look, glueless wigs provide a versatile and hassle-free solution.

Comfort and convenience

One of the main advantages of glueless wigs is the level of comfort they provide. Traditional wigs that require glue can be heavy, itchy and uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. Glueless wigs, on the other hand, allow airflow and are lightweight, ensuring a comfortable experience.

Additionally, a glueless wig is incredibly easy to wear. You can easily put it on and take it off whenever you want without worrying about the mess and the sticky process of applying and removing it.

Imagine being able to change your hairstyle with ease, without any pain or hassle. Glueless wigs offer the ultimate convenience, allowing you to adapt to different looks and styles with ease.

Additionally, the lightweight nature of glueless wigs makes them ideal for those who lead an active lifestyle. Whether you’re hitting the gym, going for a run, or dancing the night away, a no-stick wig will stay securely in place, giving you the freedom to move without worry.

Versatility and style options

Glueless wigs offer a wide range of styling possibilities. The lace cap allows for natural-looking sections, giving you the flexibility to style your wig in a variety of ways. Whether you prefer a middle part, side part, or a sleek pulled back style, glueless wigs can easily accommodate your desired look.

Not only can you experiment with different parts, but glueless wigs also allow for versatile styling options. You can also curl, straighten, or braid your wig to create a variety of stunning hairstyles. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to express your creativity and change your look whenever you want.

Additionally, glueless wigs are available in a variety of hair types, lengths, colors and textures. Whether you’re looking for a short bob, long locks, natural curls, or vibrant colors, there’s a wig to suit your personal style and preferences. You can easily change your appearance and enhance your natural beauty with the wide array of options available.

Health and safety benefits

Using glue to secure a traditional wig can potentially damage your natural hair and scalp. Chemicals in the adhesive can cause allergies or skin irritation, which in turn can cause discomfort and even hair loss. With a glueless wig, you eliminate the risks associated with glue while promoting the health and integrity of your hair and scalp.

Glueless wigs not only protect your natural hair, but also provide a barrier against external elements such as pollution, UV rays and harsh weather conditions. This extra layer of protection helps maintain the health and life of your hair, ensuring it stays strong and beautiful.

Additionally, glueless wigs are a great option for individuals undergoing chemotherapy or experiencing hair loss due to medical conditions. They provide a comfortable and natural-looking alternative, allowing individuals to regain their confidence and feel like themselves again.

With a glueless wig, you can enjoy the benefits of great hair without compromising the health of your hair or your overall health.

How to wear a glueless wig correctly.

Wearing a glueless wig can be an easy and stylish way to change your look. Whether you want to experiment with a different hairstyle or just want to protect your natural hair, a glueless wig can be a great option. However, it’s important to know how to properly wear and care for your wig to ensure a flawless and natural-looking result.

Prepping your natural hair

Before wearing a glueless wig, it is important to prepare your natural hair. Start by washing and conditioning your hair, making sure it’s clean and well moisturized. This step is very important as it helps create a clean and healthy base for your wig. Additionally, it is important to protect your hair from any knots or tangles that may interfere with the fit of the wig.

If necessary, braid or cornrow your hair to create a flat base for the wig to sit on. This technique not only helps keep your natural hair in place, but also provides a smooth surface to hold the wig in place. Make sure the braids or cornrows are tight enough to hold the wig securely but not too tight to cause discomfort.

Fitting the wig correctly

One of the most important factors in achieving a natural and comfortable look with a glueless wig is making sure it fits properly. Most glueless wigs come with adjustable straps that allow you to customize the fit to your head size. Start by loosening the straps and then place the wig on your head, positioning it so that it sits snugly against your hairline.

Once the wig is in place, adjust the straps to match the size of your head. The wig should fit securely on your head, without being too tight or causing any discomfort. Finding the right balance between snug fit and comfort is important to ensure you can wear a wig for long periods of time without any issues.

In addition to adjustable straps, most glueless wigs come with combs that can be tucked into your natural hair for added stability. Take the time to properly position and secure the combs, making sure they are evenly distributed around the wig. This will help prevent any shifting or sliding of the wig during your wear.

Preserving the wig for a natural look

One of the challenges of wearing a wig is making it look natural and smooth with your own hair. For a natural look, it is important to carefully blend your natural hair with the wig.

Using a rat-tail comb or your fingertips, gently pull out small sections of your hair along the hairline and temples. This technique, called “baby hair,” helps create a smooth transition between your natural hair and the lace cap of the wig. By doing this, you can enhance the overall look of the wig and make it look more realistic.

Be gentle when removing baby hair so as not to damage your natural hair or wig. Take your time and experiment with different styles and placements to find the look that works best for you. You can also use styling products like edge control or gel to help style and shape baby hair for a more polished look.

Remember, practice makes perfect when it comes to wearing glueless wigs. It may take some time and experience to find the right fit and style that works for you. Be patient and have fun exploring different shapes and techniques to achieve the desired result.

Care and Maintenance of Glueless Wigs

Cleaning Your Glueless Wig

Proper cleaning is vital to maintaining the longevity and quality of your glue-on wig. Start by detangling the wig using a wide-toothed comb or brush designed specifically for wigs. After that, soak the wig in lukewarm water and wash it gently using a mild shampoo. Rinse thoroughly and apply conditioner to soften hair. Allow the wig to air dry naturally, and avoid using excessive heat or rubbing vigorously to avoid damage.

Storing your wig to keep its shape

When not in use, it’s important to store your glue-in wig properly to maintain its shape and avoid tangling. Avoid throwing or folding it haphazardly as this can cause permanent creases or uneven wear. Instead, place the wig on a wig stand or wig head to preserve its natural shape and style.

Tips to prolong the life of your wig

  • Protect your wig from harsh weather conditions, such as rain and extreme humidity.
