The Nigerian hair market is huge, and quality varies enormously. Use this checklist before you spend serious money.

1. Ask about the hair itself

Real human hair with the cuticles aligned in one direction tangles less and lasts far longer than mixed or processed hair. Ask the seller directly and expect a clear answer.

2. Check the details in the listing

A trustworthy vendor states the length, the weight in grams and the lace type. Vague listings are a warning sign.

3. Look at the lace

Good lace is fine, soft and evenly knotted. Stiff, thick or patchy lace is hard to melt into the skin and looks obvious once installed.

4. Buy from a real, reachable business

A physical address, a working phone line and real customer reviews matter. Hair Crib NG trades from ZEY HUB Plaza, Wuse 2, Abuja, and you can visit, call or message on WhatsApp before you buy.

5. Understand the policy

Know the return window and delivery times upfront. And remember that the cheapest unit is rarely the best value once you count how long it lasts.
