STAMFORD, Conn.--(Business Wire)-- ForGirlsLikeUs.com, a leading marketer of a new generation of affordable high quality full lace wigs and accessories, is benefitting from the release of the movie, GOOD HAIR, a documentary exposé on the way hairstyles impact the black community. Narrated by and starring Chris Rock, GOOD HAIR explores the topic of hair by talking with hair care professionals, beauty shop and barbershop patrons, as well as celebrities. "Good Hair has stirred up a controversy in the female, black community," commented Meloney Early, president and founder of Stamford, CT- based full lace wig retailer, ForGirlsLikeUs.com. This film exposed what many black women considered to be their secret to beautiful hair: weaves, braids and hair extensions. "Weaves were always the closely guarded secret in the African American community or at least we thought so," Ms. Early said. Furthermore, "Many black women feel like they`ve been "outed" by the movie`s candid portrayal of what women of color do to achieve beautiful hair via weaves, braids and extensions. ForGirlsLikeUs.com is seeing a definite up-tick in business as full lace wigs represent the next trend in beautiful hair - they are more realistic looking, cost effective and less time-consuming than weaves. "My customers are in and out of my salon in about one hour which is totally different from the four or five hours spent in the salon having a weave attached. Today`s women appreciate the value of time and our wigs simplify the process of achieving long, lustrous locks in a matter of minutes, not hours," added Ms. Early.
