I love this store. Have to visit everytime I have a trip to…read moreBolton. Lots and Lots of great things to buy for a Pound. Well worth a look around, To those that say , but it's a cheap shop. I would say " you don't have to buy , just have a look , pick and choose what you do want.. You will go back" And hey it isnt bad in these times to save a few pounds is it. I feel a trip to Bolton coming on now.

The regeneration of Hulme in the late'80's and early '90's brought many invaluable businesses to…read morethis area and facing Hulme market, Afro World is one of them. I am a curly girl with tresses which vary from sleek and shiny on a good day, to a frizzy halo- depending on the weather. Although certain high street chains and chemists have woken up to the fact that yes, we are a multicultural Britain with a diverse population who have individual needs, their range of products for people of colour can be very limited. This is not a political rant, it is a cold, hard, consumer fact. Afro World is a saving grace and "limited" is not a word that applies here. Having entered its hallowed doors, you have never seen so many hair and skin products in your life! There are rows and rows stocking brands such as Soft n Free, Dark n Lovely, Ultra Sheen and Pink, to name but a few- seriously the shop sells hundreds of them. The name of this store is a tad misleading as this mecca also sells makes for European and Asian hair types. You can buy a good quality real hair wig for only £29, extensions, and curly or straight pony tails line the shelves and offer you the ability to alter your appearance every day of the week. Handy for Geminis or international spies. The owners really know their stock inside and out. This is an incredible talent, considering how many lines are sold there, and they are always on hand to give you help and advice. Not many men ( with the obvious exception of hairdressers) are able to discuss with you whether you suit a wavy weave or a head full of corn rows in a truly macho fashion. Afro World also sells a good range of make-up for Asian and Afro-Caribbean skin and various hair accessories . It is open Mon-Sat 9am-6pm and on Sunday from 11am-5pm. Be aware that the shop is closed for prayer on Fridays from 1.30-2.30pm. So if you fancy a wicked weave, exceptional extensions or just need to stock up on your Kirby grips then this shop has it all.

Wow! Check out the window display! I would have taken a photo regardless of requiring a pic for…read moreYelp! Endless lotions and potions are stacked tetris-style on shelf after shelf covering all the available window space and making your head spin with the seemingly infinite hair pampering options available! If you have afro hair and like to coax it into any style of your choosing then I can't imagine you could go away empty handed! They also sell hair dryers and styling tools, hair dye, wigs, weaves, clip in hair extensions and a huge range of hair accessories. On top of this they have a huge variety of body lotions and skin creams and a selection of makeup. It would be easy to feel pretty overwhelmed by the vast array of products on display, but the staff are helpful and friendly and will point you in the right direction. Sihala provides many products to be used by all women but specialises in a range of products for black people that would not be found in most high street cosmetics retailers, which often tend to overlook the specific needs of black customers. Go Sihala!

Boots have a fair number of branches in Bolton town centre, this is my favourite, being in a small…read moreretail park on Trinity Street, it means you can park almost directly outside. The product range of the items in the store was pretty good, while I do prefer the Manchester Arndale store, they did have some unique products which are rarely stocked in Boots stores including gift packet chocolates, although these were often much more expensive than Sainsbury's which is next store, many toiletries items were also cheaper at Sainsbury's, so the price isn't great in most areas. The store was clean and the staff seemed friendly enough. There is a midnight pharmacy, it is one of the few Boots stores in the area to offer this, while the regular store is open until 8 pm, after this time they have a window, similar to what you'd find as a service station which you can use for your pharmacy needs, which is really handy and useful to the local area. 4* - The selection might not be the best, but it's pretty good for a store of its' size, the late opening of the pharmacy is handy, do be prepared to pay a little more if you are coming here though, which isn't ideal considering stores which are virtually next to this one do sell products at a cheaper rate, such as Sainsbury's and Home Bargains, not forgetting retailers elsewhere Bolton town centre.

A few years ago, when Boots started popping up in our nation's out-of-town shopping centres instead…read moreof our high streets, I was really quite confused and quite disappointed. This Boots is one of those. Weird because I wouldn't have thought Boots was somewhere you went to do Saturday out-of-town retail park browsing kind of shopping along with a trip to Peacocks and TK Maxx, but it's here nonetheless and I guess it must work for them. Helpfully, this Boots has a pharmacy that is open to midnight, which is always useful. Aside from this, this store is light, airy and white, full of cosmetics, beauty supplies and all the shower gel you could ever need.

I don't have much to add here as I actually popped in to get something for my wife - no she isn't…read moregoing to be sporting an afro or dreads soon, but she did want some pink hair dye picking up! They sell fake hair, wigs, have a beauty and hair section and all sorts of beauty products - you can tell from this description that I'm not massively up on this theme... This is the newer store after the previous one was destroyed by fire and it does look very modern and well laid out. The staff were very helpful guiding me straight to what I needed - a very easy visit, in and out!

I asked for Jimmy Choo Illicit box set as my wife told me not to get anymore standard Jimmy Choo as I have done for the past couple of years. Thought nothing more of it till my wife opened the present on Christmas day! I had been given the standard Jimmy Choo by mistake. Thought nothing of it and tried returning it today for a simple swop for Jimmy Choo Illicit! However, no chance of an exchange as I did not retain the receipt which I always do on electrical or expensive items. So wife stuck with something she does not want, bye bye The Perfume Shop and hello Boots in future.
