NYC ladies where do you get your weaves/installs done

[Lute]

Hello ladies,

I want to get a full head weave but, after looking through out the internet, I can't seem to find one that is trust worthy or highly recommend. 4a/b natural btw

I saw 2 or 3 names that we're constantly repeated, but they were over 300+ dollar range.I forgot how expensive weaves can be.

Queen of the Wink, was one of them. But after checking out the website. and read comments about that place. I dont want use my hold day to be in there.

Do you have any stylists that you would recommend. I wanted to get an install ASAP. So far, I'm kinda of a complete noob, my first and last weave was around 2006. And the end result it thinned my hair out. and it looked like I hand a helmet head.

And I would like to wear a weave. Just to protect my hair in the mean while. Any places you can recommend would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much

4-something natural checking in!

Celina in Brooklyn is good. I was an older customer/student, so I think she had mercy on me and gave me a lower price. It was 220 including a really good tip and the style lasted 3 months. That's rare for me b/c... I rarely wrap my hair. I know, I know, bad me.

She has a website, it was weavediva or something. If you go to her, it's worth getting high quality hair you can use over and over again, otherwise the style might outlast the hair.

I have her number in my old phone.

Also, Brenda (on youtube) is in ny and travels. She did my weave once and I loved it. She has daughters and she braids like my mamma. I'm tenderheaded! My hair looked great and only costed 99! I have her number too, but it's hard to get in touch with her sometimes.

Feel free to pm me if you want their numbers. They're cells.

I haven't but I know of quite a few people who've gone to all 3. Anya will be doing my hair when I go to NYC this summer.

Reviews are always great for Anya and Poochie. Jenny Lind is fairly new to me.

I started doing them on my own. My sister used to do them and they always looked great, so i just followed her method. I practiced on mannequin heads first.

I would contact her on Facebook. You can just send a message.

I would also recommend Celena. She is amazing. Best weave I've had. I live in Canada, but anytime I'm in NY I would go see her.
Her website is www.elitestrands.com
Her pricing is very reasonable and she is super friendly!!

Cherry at "Sweet Sensations" at 4242 White Plains Rd. (2 or 5 train). She doesn't use that cheap wool/cotton thread from BSS, but she does cut the tracks. Vertical braids were done (by assistant) and not tight at all. No roughness or pain and hair is retaining length like a mug and only cost $100 too
