I had heard about Michael from various ladies on and off campus. He is a popular hair stylist who recently took up the space occupied by De Fab Salon Surulere, as that business moved out.

Unlike other stylists, Michael does not offer all hair services. He basically handles sewing in of weaves, short hair (that’s his signature) and blow outs. He doesn’t offer the regular washing and setting or even nail care.

Michael is my friend’s regular hair stylist, so I decided to get his number and speak with him. I had a particular hairstyle in mind which I showed to him via Whatsapp. He assured me he knew his stuff and promised to give me the look I desired after which we discussed pricing. With Michael Hairlord, haggling of prices is very possible. He had requested for 3,500 NGN for a blunt cut with closure but I successfully beat the price down to 2,500 NGN and set up an appointment.

I ended up missing my appointment and on getting to the salon, it was very busy! Luckily, he had assistants who did the basics; wash, weave and sew in while he puts the finishing touches.

I waited for about 1 hour 30 minutes before it got to my turn. I was willing to wait as I wanted him to do my hair since it was my first time trying him out.

It took him approximately 2 hours to complete my hair style. I wanted a closure which he made effortlessly. I was really glad that the hair turned out really nice and everyone liked it.

I rate Michael Hairlord an 8/10. I totally love the hair, and I’m glad he is also very affordable as blunt cuts are expensive in other places. I didn’t appreciate the wait time but it really wasn’t his fault as I was late, but the hair was worth the wait.

I have been to Michael Hair Lord’s salon 5 times and only once did I actually make my hair.
1st time: Too many people. (Another salon straightaway)
2nd time: I had an event in 2 hours practically an emergency. So I opted for something fast and easy: Center part which he finished in time, charged me extra which I didn’t mind I was kuku grateful lol.
3rd time:
Michael’s assistant: Michael is not around, please wait for him. After 30 minutes of trying to reach him. (I just went to another salon)
4th time:
Michael’s assistant:
We don’t have water to wash your hair, please go and buy a bag of pure water. Me: okay, thank you… Walks into another salon
4th time:
Michael: Your weave isn’t gonna be enough..
Me: okay, do you sell weaves?
Michael: No. But I’ll use mine (I.e leftovers from other clients), I’ll let you know how much my “leftover” weaves cost when we are through…
Me: Ehen, okay, Thank you. Bye… Walks into the other salon (now my favorite go-to Salon)
This was the last time. 1/5
