It's cute and natural looking

I'm glad you came in here!For the Bohyme does is get any flatter than that or it pretty much stays puffy like that?For the virgin indian curly hair do you remember what brand and how much?Did you leave any of your hair out for the last sew in?

sorry for the late reply...i forgot to subscribe to this thread

the bohyme doen't get much flatter than that in its curly state. if you want a more controlled look just condition wash it and don't rinse out all of the condish. it can be flat ironed too. it is probably easiest right out of the pack. i get my indian hair from sunny's hair (www.sunnyshair.com)...it's virgin indian hair...no brand name. i wear 18" and 22" so it's like 3-hundred something for oz. i didn't leave any hair out for my last sew in...i would have had to straighten my own hair too much for it to blend w/ the indian hair.

These are all lovely!You have to give info on the first pic.Is that a full sew in no hair left out?Is the hair already curled like that or did you do it,if so how?I really like the first pic

That is not hair left out going, cut in layers and barrell(sp?) curled. Three bundles because I like big hair. I roll it at night to keep from curling it every day.

I have lots of styles but these are some of my favs. Check out my fotki for more.


Cheap $9.99 synthetic hair I think it was 1 pack of "Ebony Star" brand



cheap $5.99 hair bought two seperate colors and mixed used 1/2 of each color. (don't know the name)

(Velvet Remi Yaki Straight 10 inches) Best hair in the game!

I'm pround to say I cut and styled all styles myself

 

[trendsetta25]

i live in weaves so i have tons of pics...but cant find most
these are some of the pics i found on my myspace page....oooollllddd pics.
i dont use the expensive stuff because i usually keep them in for a week...but tomorrow i'm taking a trip to Lugo's because i noticed that the $20 i spend every two weeks on hair is too much. i can just buy really good hair and re-use it ;-)
Taken in early 2008
Taken in 2005 (College Bash)
Taken in fall 08...that's Jon B by the way




ok no more

 

[bermudabeauty]

This is so cute. I can't wait for the last layer of my hair to grow longer. This is exactly the style I want to cut my hair in.

I LOVE this one. What weave is it and how did you get it like that my dear?

 

[cocoagirl]

I LOVE MODEL MODEL!!!!! I do my own weaves (and others). Here are some of my installs with MODEL MODEL!

All of these pics are Model/Model installs!

I know they may look like alot of hair but I wear I lot of hair. I like my hair BIG! So I wear 3 bundles. Model/Model is really good because you can wash it and it snaps right back. BUT it will only last you about one month/month and a half. If you wear it I suggest washing with Nexxus or Pantene products. Does the hair some wonderful miracles I tell you. Now Mode/Model is your best choice for non-expensive hair. Once you get into the expensive hair categories, I can't help you. What I can say is for a more NATURAL texture either go Italian Mink Perm or wash the REMI PRIOR to the install.

Hey, does the Model Model hold curling iron curls well? I am looking to buy this brand this week for a sew in but am looking for a hair that holds curls..also will I need a spritz or something to aid in the curl holding?

bumping for more weave inspirations ............cuz transitioning aint easy

 

[BGT]

Black Diamond Remi, 12", color #2. The top and perimeter were left out.

 

[dontspeakdefeat]

I can't say which one is my fave but the easiest would be the last one.

Curly weave with Indique Curly, 12 and 14 inches.

Halley's Curls Creoly wavy, 12 inches. It was hard keeping this one blended while on the island but I loved it.

Halley's Curls Gentle wave, 16 inches.

Here are some of mine!

 

[Caychica]

& my absolute favorite!!

 

[Chriselle83]

Caychica... I LOVE your weaves! I couldn't bear to buy the halleys creole curly(my dh forbid me) so I bought some goddess remi french refined...
How do you blend the front? Are you natural? Do you have to straighten everyday? What brand did you buy?

Thank you =]
I nvr tried creole curly hair before but I'm trying the BrazBohyme this month. I'm transitioning so if I'm wearing straight hair I'll flat iron my hair to blend. But not everyday. Maybe once/twice a week unless I wash. If i have in curly hair i just use gel to get the waves. I always leave out the front/edges/nape.

My memory is so bad cause i experiment a lot lol but i'm gonna try to remember...here goes (in order of pictures)::

-Its a loose wave by a brazilian brand, i have no idea what it's called. i stumbled across it in a store. doesnt matter, i'll nvr buy it again *thumbs down*

-Goddess remi french refined. LOVED it. curls go away too easy tho.

-Sensationnel Premium Now

-Goddess remi french wave.

-I'm not positive. I know it was wet & wavy but idk which brand. Didnt like it tho, tangled waaay too much!!

-Sensationnel Premium Now Wet & Wavy. It tangled a bit, but i loved it!! i usually wet it and used gel/mousse when it started to get overwhelming. I even got it blow dried. The curls were looser but it looked very natural. here are some pics: gel, straightened, reverting.

*plz ignore me tryin to be a model lmao

Here are some of mine!

I'm loving the curly pics. I'm actually hating on the curly pics.

 

[jwhitley6]

Caychica, I love your weaves. I just bought some hair today to do my first one (got Sensational Premium Now Wet & Curly).

I see that a lot of people leave the top and edges out, but what about the sides? Are those completely braided or left out for ponytails and up do's?

 

[PPGbubbles]

My Absolute fave Curly sew in with 12' Model Model Indi Afro hair

and a recent straight install with Sensational Godess Remi hair 12'
I wont buy this again simply because I dont like bonestraight styles personally

To answer the bolded you can leave the sides out if you like if you plan on doing high ponys and updos....You just run the risk of breakage due to heat styling or manipulation

How much hair you leave out solely depends on how much versatility of style you want out of your sew in

The top and edges are out in all of them. I like to wear my hair in ponytails.

I just got another install saturday with just the top & nape out, no sides. I'll post pics later tonight.

I'm transitioning so I have to straighten when I have in straight weaves but not everyday. I just wrap at night & as long as my hair doesnt get wet it wont revert.

For the french refined I dyed my hair black, straightened the left out & put some hair polish on it. but i got lazy after a while and just gel my edges (in the pic)

My Absolute fave Curly sew in with 12' Model Model Indi Afro hair

I love, love this style. How were you able to blend so well?? I've heard how curly styles tangle easily. Did you experience tangling with this hair. How long did you keep it in. Lot's of questions I know, just gearing up to find a cute summer look as I transition. Thanks!

I used flat twist to blend... I got my technique from a YTber im suscribed too.

There is some tangling which is too be expected with any curly hair. If wasnt enough to deter me... I would put the hair in 4 or 6 lrg twist at night and it eliminated the problem

 

[CoutureGirl]

Thanks! I'll definetly be trying this come summer time!

 

[honeybuni84]

this is my current install.. it is 18 inches of Laniks Virigin Curly, and Nature Girl 3b.. custom colored

 

[jwhitley6]
