I spend N500,000 to make my hair – Muma Gee

Singer, Muma Gee, tells Nonye Ben-Nwankwo (Punch) about her fashion and style…

Your hair is always full; you must have invested so much in it?

I agree. I invest a lot in my hair. A lot of cash, energy and time go into my hair. It takes like eight hours to get my hair done. Basically, it is a special and patient person that can do my hair. Not everybody has the patience or can be meticulous enough to do my hair.

On the average, how much goes into your hair?

The hair piece alone costs a lot of money, especially in these days of human hair. I normally use 11 packs of human hair and each piece is not less than N60, 000. At the end of the day, I end up spending about N500, 000 to do my hair at once.

Do you have to wear such a hair-do because you are an artiste?

It is my style. I like to have that kind of personality. I just want a particular kind of look. At times, my hair might look scanty but a lot would have gone into it.

How long does each hair do last?

It usually lasts three weeks to one month or even less. If I have to do a photo shoot or something that would require my wearing a different look, then I make another hair.

You make hair for N500, 000 and loosen it after one month?

Don’t get me wrong. It is actually the hair pieces that can go for that amount and those hair pieces can last for years. I have had hair extensions that have lasted for over 10 years. Each time I remove the weaves, I take it to hair companies and they treat the hair and they are as good as new.

Have you or will you ever wear low cut hair?

I have never worn low cut, even as a child. A woman’s hair is her grace and glory. Even though I am an artiste, I am a born-again Christian and my Bible tells me a woman’s hair is very precious. I have never cut my hair. Even now my hair is as long as 20 inches and it is very black. But I don’t carry my natural hair at all.

Even apart from your hair, your dressing is outrageous…

I influence the production of what I wear. I don’t even buy clothes because I make them. I buy more of shoes and bags.

How many pairs of shoes do you have?

I have about 500 pairs and still counting. There are some I have not worn for over two years and they are still trendy, I love heels.

 

Why do you sleep with make-up?

I say to people that I make-up and go to bed in case I die in my sleep, I want to still look beautiful. As a nursing mother, I could leave the house without make-up but not completely. I must have my powder. When you see my face look bare, I am wearing make-up. I cannot sleep and wake up and take my bath without wearing make-up. Even before I come out of the bathroom, I would have had my first make-up on.

How long does it take you to dress up?

It takes me an average of three hours to dress up. If it is a red carpet event, it takes me all day to dress up. I would need to fix up myself. I would need to give myself a treat and pamper myself. But if I have a meeting to attend, I have to start dressing up at least three hours to the time I leave for the meeting.

Hmmmmmh! no be small matter oh!!!
