Alhaja Amusan fondly known as Alhaja is one of the biggest player in the Tejuosho market before the fire incidents with over 3 shops and cosmetics goods worth billions of naira. Her shop called Alhaja Cosmetic Gallery was the toast of all then from high profile and celebrities, make-up artists, undergraduates and a host of others until the fire that raised down Tejuosho Market 2 years ago. But 2 years down the lane, Alhaja is gradually finding her way to where she used to be before. The first thing she did was to open a big beauty shop in the Ilupeju axis of Lagos last year February which is gradually becoming one of the hottest beauty shop on the scene right now. And not only that, she recently opened another massive beauty shop located on University Road; Akoka which was shop was officially opened recently.
According to Alhaja who narrated her ordeal and her effort to find her feet back despite what she has been through, “It’s not been easy, I have been struggling to get my feet back. But I will say determination and not giving up actually paved a way for me. And you know I am very passionate about this my cosmetics business and I wont allow the Tejuosho situation to stop me from achieving my dreams.”
And apart from the expansion, Alhaja has also added another line to her vast cosmetics line. She recently got a deal with an American company into the production of hair. “I am coming back with accessory; weave on, Brazilian hair, Indian hair, Chinese hair, full lace wig.” That is the new merchandise she is adding to her business.
