Wigs and hair extensions are big business in Africa. In Tanzania women are claiming they're being unfairly targeted after the government there announced a 25% tax on imports of such hair products. Someone who's definitely not happy is Ruth Josephat Urio, who owns a business called J'Adore Wigs in Tanzania's most populous city, Dar Es Salaam. Ruth designs the wigs, gets them made in China, then imports them into Tanzania. (IMAGE: Wigs on mannequins in a shop; Getty Images)
