Ok so I put in crochet braids, but I couldn't find freetress hair, so I used this cheapo beverly johnson hair. The hair feels supergross when I touch it :/ and has a tendency to fly away in the wind all over the place, and I feel as if everyone who looks at me is thinking "lol is that a wig" or "wow she looks crazy" but are just too polite to say it, so I'm here on lhcf to find out. :look: Flat out opinions please, no 'lets make her feel better'. I'm like 2 steps away from taking this mess out :perplexed I feel like my self esteem is taking a bit of a beater here. Idk if its the hair or if I just don't look good with this kind of 3b-ish hair, but honest opinions? even if they're "LOL U LOOK FUG WITH THAT IN" would be appreciated

I'm not a big weave expert, so if you hadn't said anything I would've thought it was a twist out. :dork: It looks good to me! Definitely not stupid.
 
It looks pretty natural to me.
 
Huh??? This is a perfect example of how no matter what anyone thinks....what you see is what will take over in your mind. the style looks nice on you. In fact I thought the first pic was a before shot, so I couldn't even tell it wasn't yours.

BUT if YOU don't like it, then take it out. It won't matter what we say, but I think it looks good on you.
 
I think it looks nice! Before I read your post I thought it was your hair!
 
Very.







I'm just playing, i think it's cute. I can't tell the quality of it honestly, because of the quality of the pics, but it looks like a twistout from small twists....
But, if the hair is literally flying out in the wind and i saw you in person I'd wonder why you're shedding like a golden retriever.
 
Also OP if you're not used to wearing fake hair it might be a shocker at first. Have you worn weaves/wigs before?
 
I agree. It looks like a twist out to me too. I would just make sure to fluff it everyday, but I don't see anything wrong with it.
 
Wait, I didn't read the whole thing...

That's a weave???It looks like a natural twist out.
 
Wow! I thought it was a braid out too! Looks great!
 
Girl cut it out, you look good. I also would have thought it was a braidout/twistout. Looks natural. Since you want honest, your probably just being paranoid because YOU feel self conscious about it. Don't worry, I do the same thing, but you look nice.

Matter fact how did you do that?
 
In my experience, you're better off changing things if your look makes you feel uncomfortable. I bet most people don't even notice your hair, good or ill. But if you don't feel fly, that's the reason to change it.

I put on wigs, phony ponies etc. all the time then self-conscious the whole time. It's not worth it.
 
Looks great i thought it was your hair.
 
i didn't know it was a weave until i read the responses!! I think it's ultra cute! like another poster said... i'd just fluff it out. rock it girl!
 
I didn't even read the words first, I looked at the picture and it looks really natural and good! Seriously!
 
i echo what others have said...it looks just like a twistout. i understand being self conscious though...this is the first time i have succeeded in leaving braid extensions in longer than 2-3 weeks and i feel like they are so raggedy, although multiple people have told me they look great.

lookin' good, girl!
 
I honestly think that it looks cute:)

But I understand the way you feel.. whenever I try a new hairstyle I think I look stupid and that everyone is just staring at me lol but I usually end up liking it after a week :yep:
 
Okay, I went through your pics twice and the only thing that stood out to me is that you look like you're thoroughly disgusted with your hair. Other than that I think you did a great job and that it looks really cute on you. And that, is the truth right there.:yep::yep:
 
it looks really, really natural and cute-can't even tell those are tree braids!
 
Goes to show I should read the post first before oogling the pictures. I thought that was your hair until I read your thread. I kept wondering why you weren't smiling with a fluffy twistout that awesome. I like it but I had a gosh awful crochet experience so if you don't dig it then find a way to let it last a bit then take it out asap.

I love it though.
 
I like it! It actually looks like your hair.
 
Yah, I thought looks natural too, but that could just be because the pic quality isn't great. Looks good to me! :)
 
I actually like it. Maybe you could add more tracks to the bottom to give it a little more bulk and make it "fly away" less but I think it looks fine.
 
We are our worst critic; I think it looks really cute!
