Wigs: Milky Way Que Loose Deep Wave

Hair Used: Milky Way Que in Loose Deep Wave
1 Pack (includes 14, 12, 10 & 8 inch hair along with a closure) in color #4

A little about the hair...
I would not use this hair for a sew-in weave.  I think it is perfect for a wigs or quick weaves.  I say this because it is not 100% human hair.  The hair is soft and does not feel like plastic.  The package was correct about one pack being enough.

Results...
I love how the hair turned out.  I am very happy and hope it will last awhile.  Check out the pics...

Wigs: 'Sensationnel's Pro 10 Bohemian Curl'

Hair Used: Sensationnel's Pro 10 Bohemian Curl (three packs)
Color: #1 (jet black)
Length: 12 inches

A little about the hair...
Since this hair is not human hair, I would not use this for a sew-in weave.  As warned on the package, it is best to use scissors when cutting the hair.  Other cutting tools will make the hair frizzy.  Two packs should be plenty.  Since I wanted the wig to be very big and full, I used three packs. 

The results...
Well, at first the fullness really freaked me out.  But after giving the wig some shape and cutting on it for a few days, I am very pleased with the results.  Check out a few pics...

Natural Hair: (Not So)Mini Twists...Round Two



Last week I did another set of twists.  I was very happy with the results. 

What I did this time...

~I made the twists a lot smaller.  It took me over four hours to finish.

~I originally had cornrows in the front.  They were looking a little crazy...so I took those out a couple of days later.  =/

~I kept the twists in for around five days.

What I will do next time...

~My twistout lasted only two days.  Next time I will use some type of twisting gel/cream. 

~I am going to try to keep them in for longer that a week.

Here are a few pics....

  

With cornrows...I should have made them smaller.

Day 2 of Twistout



Natural Hair: New & Improved way to create my puffs!

For a couple of weeks now, I have been using the elastic from one of my old wig caps.  Yeah, I know this sounds a little hood...but it works.  I don't know what made me try it out to see if it would, I am just glad it did.  =)

Natural Hair: In Need of a Little Spice...(hair color)

This makes the third time I have colored my hair since I have been natural.  I am too chicken to do my entire head...so I just dye my crown.  It never seems to turn out as bright as I would like...but I am pleased with the results.

My Review

My review is based on my experiences using this hair for a wig, not a sew-in.   This is my second time using this hair.  I used only one pack.  I love it! 

The Good...
The "Bump" is lasting.
Little to no cutting needed.
Little to no shedding.

The Bad...
Uhhh....well....hmmmm....can't think of anything.  ;)

Bottom Line
This hair is great for those who are not comfortable cutting hair.  You will more than likely need only one pack...I learned this the hard way.

Side Notes: Since I did not place the weaving cap on my head to get the proper fix before starting, it ending up being too big with too much hair.  I ended up removing several rows of track.   

This is what I had to remove...






                           

Weaves: Sew-In Weave Using Sensationnel Premium Too Jerry Curl

Its time for a sew-in.  I have had my hair out for over two weeks.  During that time, I just could not seem to keep my hands out of it.  So my hair is in need of a much needed and well deserved break. 

I was in the mood for something curly and short.  I decided to get Sensationnel Premium Too Jerry Curl in 10 inches.  I love how it turned out!!!  My goal is to keep it in for at lease four weeks.
