Synthetic or Human Hair????

[ms_kenesha]

I plan on getting medium sized individuals in the upcoming weeks and I want to ask the frequent braid wearers on the board should I go for synthetic or human hair. I think I'm going to go for the wet & wavy hair. Could you please break down the pros & cons of both types(synthetic vs human).

Thanks in Advance,

Wet and Wavy human hair is all I ever wear. Human is lighter (IMO)feels better, and holds moisture better. Diamond brand is the best.

I have never heard of the Diamond brand, I'll look for it. I would HH as well.

I mainly use synthetic.
I find it easier to braid, it has less flyways and I re-braid every 4-6 weeks so it's more economical.
And I read this thing about where some of the hair comes from, which made me leary.

Nina,
I plan on getting my rebraided in about that same time, I've never kept my braids in longer than 6 weeks, which is why I've thought about synthetic.

Stormy,
How much does the Diamond brand humand hair cost a pack?
