tell me about you what do you all about we have all of you have badly ellis wigs here tell me about you on his floor show belsky i was born in russia grew up in right they don't so a little bit about how you started your business how and when did you start like the hair the how the what we know the what is the wigs the how when and who with who i worked for with company for twenty years a very large with company i did older designs on the stylist and managed the company and when i had my fifth child twelve a well i well hold on hold hold on one second excuse me camera she's got five children now flora you are going to stand out later on because we're going to do a live demonstration but when she stands up you know i'll check check her out you look fabulous they're all i have you is ok so i'm sorry my children after your fifth child when i was pregnant my fifth child i broke my wrist and i told her not able to work and i kind of lost my job and when my baby was six months old we moved to bergen county new jersey and we i opened my business and within six months i grew up of a tiny little office space into a huge charlie room on a main road wow where wow so is this your passion yesterday i could tell that but i just had to ask the question because it's important that you as an entrepreneur work your passion because it gives you joy that's what it's all about ray how many stores do you have right now we have two and where they located one is here in new jersey and one is in fountain valley california fountain valley california so you're east coast you're west coast you're global i also noticed that you had a clip on the wendy williams show yes from from a while back and so you're really all are some of the benefits about wearing a wig oh you get up in the morning you put on where you don't have to worry but there in your hair as far as benefit just that's that alone but also if you know you don't have the best hair it's  covers up a lot of damage yeah because you know i know i know that and i have a statistic here hair loss affects both men and women but this show is specifically for women per se correct and according to what i need to read this fact according to the international society of hair restoration surgery we lose between fifty and one hundred hairs naturally a day i don't have that many but anyway hair loss may be genetic due to illness and medications also due to the environment it could be also due to your lifestyle so if you smoke if you smoke excessively drink excessively play in the sun excessively then or you know sun exposure uva u v b rays that can also cause hair loss so you also focus on the pattern the pattern bal right for your wigs but most of your clients but into the one of those two categories so i make pieces for female pattern baldness genetic on the piece and they're tiny little pieces which just covers the top of the coverage which can look a little thinner as the time goes but that's mainly for that and then of course you know you have all your other be sure to tell us what you would need a full wig for now i have to go there i have to go there we do know some guys that  how do you know the test or tell me the test if one kid says how they're losing their hair it's very hard to test that it's something to chew but i always say you know the women that lose their hair the only  can tell in the beginning and i kind of tell them to count i mean silly but to tell them to count and see but they could tell a woman can tell that her hair is thinning and a family member sometimes can see heads where so according to the actually did a test on my hair a while ago because i was thinning at the top and i was thinning at the time not due to age or lifestyle factors is just because i was twist things so it broke off so she did the todd says where you pull your it's hard from one talk to tell but i call it a patch for this attached how can i kind of give a little if if they if they hear is this attached and you see some loss i do that the same with chemo patients to see how far along are they with the last so i call it a catch of this from hundreds of styles thousands of way exact hundred this thousands of wigs and we are here and we have several different styles though all around and we're going to have a model come in soon which is is your daughter thank you very much now question for you and i know that my viewers are going to want to know this answer where does your hair originate from eastern europe we import all our hair it's  hair wrapped in the winter and dozes that all kinds of countries where where it's cold are very cool so i'm going to make the assumption and you can correct me if i'm wrong but your hair your products all human hair products it's human hair at its natural state on processed on the hollered permed really now that's kind of cool so which brings me to average cost of the way to get started two thousand try to stock a little bit of everything and then of course we make custom made pieces but in stock we have both handmade machine made machine made a sewn on and weft but all of the pieces will have a french lace top and able to kind of tell what would work best for them no you mention person in the chair flora i know your world the way and i know that you took a lot of time to come here and speak to me and i thank you for that but if you have a client that's like on the other side and we've been extremely successful doing so it's just that it takes a little bit longer but we try to get to a person as you know as much as possible where we get a piece out and it just fits so speaking of fitting what's your secret getting a wig successfully on one's head because everybody's head is different i have a which i will show on the model i designed the band that keeps the wig on so even want it's not in my chair and i'm not able to f you know women also like sometimes they like different things they they want to be a blonde one day they want to be a brunette the next and with a wig you can do that right correct but you mentioned earlier that your wigs come in the natural it's natural human hair in its natural state are you able to highlight or color your wig absolutely yeah every we can be highlighted in color and rooted and all the fun stuff so what are some of the carriage directions for two thousand dollar wig if you wash it on a head block i have videos available for women who want to wash it at home i have tons and tons of care b t o is on on my website where people can just anybody can go in there and just watch and it's just simple as your own hair and i have to tell you i did watch the mia videos and you make it seem see i know i'm sorry you make it seem so easy floor and that's so great because then the people watching will say oh i can do that too and i notice that you one where one would choose one over the other i personally don't like extensions i'll sell them but i recommend a piece not necessarily a wig but maybe a piece over the top of the head that i was saying before the piece that i make they work for both hair loss and also fashion so why don't you like the pieces because i know that of people that we have peas i mean extend sure i don't like them because they pull the hair somewhat and also you still cannot cover the top of the head of the pieces will do both will cover the top of the had to add length and add body to the hair and and you don't need to worry about color you don't need to worry about blending it in just plop it on in the morning you don't need anybody doing it for you put it on  keep moving keep with that said put it on take it off at night so now i gotta ask you share your advice on natural hair protection so you're putting a natural wig over your own hair but now what about protecting your hair that underneath the wig the band serves that the band helps a lot and protect your hair from the wig and your wig from your sweaty head oh ok so you know what i think we have i would like i know this is a little early to ask this this question but products everyone should use if they own a wig shampoo conditioner a light mousse that's all you really need those three things that you could occasional spray but if you put enough most when the way gives them wash then let it dry overnight you could with heat do absolutely anything to your wig so i see here and i'm going to invite your daughter in a minute you have the blonde bomb right i well know blonde but what color are you saying i love i don't learn that's beautiful they're all gorgeous by the way i just tend to go with short here but i do know plenty of people that love the long hair one minute they're short next move they have a ponytail so that's my next question some of these longer styles are you able to do a ponytail yes ok or eight so let's let's bring in your daughter is she ready we have a model coming and she's beautiful ok flora the show is yours so now what do we have read this is sabine my daughter hi sabine and and this is her own hair that's slightly thin and this is the piece oh that's gorgeous you know and she likes both she wear wigs she wears pieces so it just depends on what feels like which watch more cheese and if she wants to go ok and you could get pieces in any length any color which i will show a little later because i have to i'm not to put on a wig i like to have a nice low ponytail ok and then you just say well i don't want to oh wow so something can go from jack to lady in minutes yes and this is one of the focuses and we're going to try a couple so the is a natural look all of your all of your creations are natural looking and you have a natural part yeah there's a there's a skin part and it's not a part to small to directional top really you could really part of anywhere oh would you do that please sure so we're starting with a part on her right and we couldn't move it anywhere on the head middle it's it's a large skin top and it goes all the way be on her crown really this is actually one of my favorite pieces on her oh it's absolutely gorgeous and what about your party and all night you wear your where you fall asleep can you sleep in your way the first she does sometimes fall asleep in her wig but my next life i will have what i will have a bob ok yes that is so so gorgeous and this the blond one is actually her own wig oh really  goodness and then there is a tiny one so this is women that don't want to whole lot raw and they come in grey and they just stick on top yet when they come and graze yes and yes there are the this just because you a woman can put it on and take it off quickly easily and endgame your self confidence as easily and as quickly as they put on the web so name your top three do when like one have fun have fun have a lot in with the don't feel guilty for wearing it don't feel bad you are not you're not a minority you're not a minority women wear wigs all over the world and joy it because it's it's fun it's great it's apologize if someone asks if you're wearing a wig just say thank you never hide never feel uncomfortable ok so it's that internal a feeling of confidence ok and a big huge huge no no please please please do not wear your hair dirty this is this is a huge deal not to do don't put too much product oils oils very very important not to put whales in your hair before you put your weight on ok so now you know i'm going to ask the question you said don't but why what is the result if you wear your hair dirty or if you have too much product what happens the blood doesn't last as long so why would last for years so we'd like to maintain that so i guess comes with somewhat of do in that flora would you be able to tell
