The main shop's interior is decorated with elegant touches in a purple and silver color scheme. The boutique is a place where you can buy clothes and accessories.

Edwards sells wigs and extensions made entirely of human hair, wholesale virgin hair as well as raw hair in a variety of styles and textures.

Edwards walked over to a mannequin head with a Diana Ross-style look, which can be worn "thick and full" or sprayed with water for a wet, just-out-of-the-shower look.

She turned the wig inside out to demonstrate the inside cap area and how that particular wig is professionally constructed on a sewing machine. She pointed out a wig with straight hair that was nearby and said it was handmade.
