WIGS-ATOP-WIGS BRINGS LAUGHTER!

…Sir Olukayode Ajulo, OON, SAN

“Attention to detail is paramount in our profession. As barristers, your appearance should reflect the dignity and seriousness of the law. It is disheartening to see the trend of wearing a barrister’s wig atop fashion wigs or additional hair extensions. This practice not only undermines the professionalism we strive for but also invites ridicule.

The barrister's wig symbolises our commitment to justice and the legal system. When layered with other wigs, it becomes a comedic spectacle, detracting from the respect we seek to command in and out of the courtroom. Such mismatched attire does not exemplify the integrity we uphold; instead, it risks trivialising our role as defenders of the law.

As legal practitioners, we must dress with intention. Your attire should serve as a testament to your dedication, professionalism, and respect for the craft. Let us commit to presenting ourselves in a manner that honours our profession and the responsibilities it entails."
