Versatility has always been essential when it comes to my natural hair. Browsing Pinterest for style inspiration has long been one of my favorite pastimes. One day, while scrolling, an image stopped me in my tracks โ a striking ad featuring a handsome brother with locs crowned in radiant gold. I was instantly captivated. The gleam of his accessories reminded me of all the times Iโd dealt with fading or tarnished hair jewelry. Something about this felt different โ like the solution I didnโt know Iโd been waiting for.
I had to know more. So naturally, I turned to my trusted resource: Google. Thatโs when I discovered Zigleys.
I screen-shotted everything I loved and immediately started plotting a trip to New York. I didnโt want to risk having something this beautiful and delicate shipped โ I needed to see and touch the pieces in person. So when my daughter told me she and her best friend were headed to NYC in May 2025 to celebrate her birthday, I saw my opportunity. I made it clear: Do not come back home without my jewelry.
My daughter was in charge of the purchase, and her best friend took on the noble task of transporting what I now refer to as โthe precious cargo.โ She bought me the โZโ Loc Cuff and Mini Eternity Sans, both in gold.
From the moment the transaction began, Dana โ the owner of Zigleys โ made everything seamless. She was patient, kind, and deeply knowledgeable. Through a FaceTime call, she helped my daughter choose pieces that would best complement my twists and braids. Her passion and professionalism turned the whole experience into something special.
When my daughter returned, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. The packaging was stunning โ elegant, thoughtful, and artfully wrapped. Every detail felt intentional, and I could already tell this was going to be the glow-up my crown deserved.
Since then, Iโve had the joy of adorning my twists and braids with these beautiful pieces. They arenโt just accessories โ theyโre conversation starters. People are constantly asking where I got them, drawn to the unique design and craftsmanship.
What I love most is that Zigleys was created with people of color in mind, by a woman of color. The secure locking system gives me peace of mind, and I never have to worry about fading or tarnishing again. I now walk confidently with my crown shining โ adorned, elevated, and properly glowing.
