Nicki's Weave-licious


PhotobucketNicki Minaj wigs

 Nicki Minaj is known for her hair-dos.

We call it Nicky's Weave-licious.  Her hair-styles are attractive, outrageous, and sometimes represent the style of a little kid. I'm curious though...Who is the stylist behind the weave-licious artist.

His name is Terrence Davidson

PhotobucketThis guy is just so amazing.  He literally creates magic on her head. 

Nicki Minaj told Elle Magazine she was always inspired by people who did wild things to themselves, but never had the balls to do it herself.  Now she state she can't leave the hair, clothes, and make-up alone.  And states she even gets bored with the same ole wigs. 


PhotobucketTerrence Davidson has worked with other artists other than Nicki Minaj, but states she allows him to promote fantasy hair. Watch below for behind the scenes with
Terrance Davidson.



Terrence Davidson not only styles Nicki Minaj's wigs, but he also dyes them.  Take a look below at a few questions he answered for allure.

1) How is wig styling different from hairstyling?

You have to know your client to make it look perfect, where to stop with the cap on the mannequin, and where to put the bangs.  I have to know Nicki's head.

2) Is it human or synthetic hair?

All human hair, usually Indian. 

3) Where do you get your supply?

You'd how to follow me on twitter to find out! Follow Terrence Davidson here >>> Twitter/Terrence Davidson.

4) How often do you wash the wigs?

PhotobucketEvery week.

5) How often does Minaj wear the same wig?

Not too often.  We have multiples of those  black and blonde bobs.

When Nicki was interview with Allure before, she estimated she had one hundred wigs. How that figure changed?

It's way past that.

6) where do you store her wig collection?

I keep them at home.  Each wig is on a shelf, it's like a library.  One of my bedrooms is actually my wig room.  She takes up my whole room.  She's going to have to start
paying rent!

7) How did you do the leopard print hair she wore to the Grammy's?

I hand painted those leopard spots.  No stencil, because she was wearing a leopard print jumpsuit.  Her smile was so big when we put that hair on.

8) Any advice for someone starting out in the industry?

I always tell those trying to get to where I'm going not to give up.  Keep pushing.  Keep knocking on those
doors.  I have been told no so many times.  But that one person who tells you yes, which for me was Nicki with her creative hairstyles will get you to where you want to be.
