FROM THE FOUNDER

OLA INDRA AKINOLA

I saw the importance of making wigs for the modern woman dealing with severe hair loss from my own personal experiences with on and off full scalp hair loss from the age of two, to officially being diagnosed with the autoimmune condition of Alopecia Universalis at the age of eight.

My alopecia journey brought me down a path of probes, tests, scalp chemical peels from doctors and dermatologists in the countries that I grew up in as a child in Nigeria, India and in the US. At the age of fourteen I decided to stop my routine hair loss medication treatments, injections and experimental new drugs out in the market, shaved my remaining beloved curly locks and started a new journey to wig wearing.

This led me to model for beauty industry leaders in a world of luxury custom wig making. I saw the difference in how high quality, handmade human hair wigs function. The hair is vibrant, the wigs structures are well considered and the pieces bring a certain glamour of confidence to the wearer.

Over the years I've played around with wearing cheaper synthetic fiber blended machine made wigs but I would always find myself coming back to a well made custom designed hair piece. With OLA INDRA, we take into consideration the same process in the art of custom wig making to offering ready-to-wear pieces. With a mindful holistic approach, we create luxurious full lace handcrafted human hair wigs specifically for clients with alopecia totalis, alopecia universalis, cancer patients and anyone dealing with severe hair loss. Our pieces are handmade using 100% unprocessed virgin Brazilian or Indian hair, natural color, with a full Swiss HD lace scalp base making the pieces lightweight, airy and realistic.

These are pieces that become a true extension of our clients, designed for longevity in mind and for an everyday understated confident polished look.
