“I was one of the few that wore expensive brazilian hair before it became a craze” – Empress Njamah

In a recent interview with Punch, Actress
Empress Njamah when asked to talk about
her signature especially her colored
hairstyle disclosed thus:
Empress is known for
her hairstyle. How
come you don’t make it simple when it
comes to your hair?
A lot of people always talk about my hair
before my name while trying to introduce
Empress. It is not a logo. It is just that
everybody has one thing they are used to
and they like doing.
Over the years, I was one of the few that
started wearing expensive Brazilian hair
before it became a craze. I like to wear very
full hair. Most times, it takes two people to
make my hair. I wear what three or four
people can wear. I am a hair person.
Sometimes you make your passion your
profession. I sell human hair but I started
wearing it long before I started selling
them. For a lady, your hair should stand
out.
You also wear different colours of hair
extensions…
I am adventurous when it comes to
hairstyles. I have worn all the hair colours
that anybody can think of but I wear them
in a subtle manner, as such, you can’t fault
the hair.
I do not like people who criticise what they
do not have the courage to do. Most
people want to be adventurous.
If you listen to what people have to say, I
think you will go the wrong way when it
comes to fashion. I am very colourful in all
ramifications. I like bright things. It takes a
lot for me to wear a black outfit for a burial
ceremony. I try to put a colour to it.
Fashion is a thing of the mind.
