Last week I noticed that I had a lot of breakage and that was extremely dissapointing. I know that it is because I have been using a lot of heat since I am due for a relaxer. Ive also been lazy when it came to moisturizing my hair.
I decided to have my sister install a weave and keep it in for atleast 2 months. By the way, check out her blog and youtube videos at
http://www.hairdelacreme.com/. She has great information on growing and maintaining healthy hair.
My sister braided my hair in sort of an orange peel design.
She left out my edges in case I want to wear ponytails.
She then sewed the braids down.
This is the hair that was installed. There was a sale at my beauty supply store. I bought two packs, one is 14 inces for $59.99 and the other is 12 inches for $49.99. Duvessa is premium quality Remi hair designed to last longer. Its tangle free and easy to care for.
After installing the weave, I dyed my hair with a black rinse, blowdried and straightened. Here is my final result.
I am really loving the straight look. When I get bored I'll layer the front and curl it. I'll be sure to post those pics. Later guys!
looks great!

ReplyDeleteThank you ladies!
ReplyDeleteYour hair is really cute. I'm thinking of getting the same type of hair cause i love outre but I've never tried the duvessa. How would you rate the hair?
ReplyDeleteHi There Candace,
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great, and I too am a Duvessa hair wearer....I have one problem IDK if it was the mouse that I used to get my drop curls with the flexi rods or what, but my hair is now all tangled and it should not be. I bought the very same length and product and not understanding...is it something I did to the hair? So I washed it and flat ironed it to wear it in a wrap, which by the way was absolutely beautiful. It is going on 2 wks now and this hair tanlges really bad. So being that I experiment w/everything I am going to buy it again and try the olive oil moisturizer products to see if I can snap it back into shape, because the price I paid for this hair, it should still not tangle in this capacity. Also, I will sewn my hair in this trip so that I can wash it better. When I washed it the last time, tried not to get the scalp wet because of the gro-protect that I had on. But, I can say that it lasted muched longer and a lot better than the average store-bought hair and lays alot better too....it was like it totally framed my face and looked like it was mine. I was able to pull it up in a ponytail and DID NOT LEAVE ANY HAIR OF MINE OUT AT ALL!!
