Ediese,
Is the only difference between your hair and this one is that it's Indian?,

Also I have been researching the Bobraz Brazilian, do you know if it tangles less than the Laniks kinky hair?
They're both process hair. Someone on BHM mentioned that they look the same, but the one from AAMH sheds less.
JungleJen posted this thorough review on BHM.
My official evaluation.
RHO wins cleanliness. AAMH was second. I won't even mention Lanik's. The hair is nasty.
RHO wins length...by a HUGE margin. The company is most generous with length. The hair easily meaured 21 inches gently stretched. Lanik's is second. And I'm still trying to figure out how AAMH rationalizes it's 20 inches.
RHO wins "no greys." I've not found one. AAMH is second. And Lanik's is a distant, distant third.
Easiest to brush. Lanik's is definitely third. It's a toss up between AAMH and RHO.
Color (I'm a bronzed natural brown). Lanik's was the darkest of the bunch. AAMH was the closest match for my hair. RHO was similar, by with a copper wash instead of bronze.
*Shedding. RHO is clearly the winner on this one and I've yet to seal. Lanik's still had some shedding after two rounds of sealant. It's so difficult to brush, that I just got tired. AAMH also shed a bit. Not as much as Lanik's, but again I doubled sealed.
Blend (I'm a straight ahead 4a, tight, tight, kinky coils). Hard to say until I install. But all three are matte (not glossy like my EP custom kinky), so I think they'd all get the job done. RHO has the tightest curl at the bottom of the weft, but toward the top, the hair seems almost wavy. AAMH seems a better match from top to bottom.
My strategy. I'm a length whore. So if I can get away with RHO, I will. If I can't, I'll use AAMH near the leave out and hope RHO and AAMH play nice.
*After wearing the RHO hair, my guess is that it sheds as much as the other brands, particularly if no heat is applied and it's kept in its kinky state. I personally have had minimal shedding because I primarily finger comb. But every time I've put a brush in it, hair comes out. I didn't seal the pieces in my current install, but would consider it for my next.
If you'd like to see some comparison photos let me know. I'll throw them back up for the life of this thread.
There are a lot of complaints about the shedding with the bohyme brazilian. Also wants to mention that no matter how much you pay for kinky hair, it will tangle no matter what because of the tight curls. It 'acts' like realy kinky hair.
