Here's a good video explaining the differenceDo any of you know the main difference between Indian and Remy hair?
I've been buying Remy for years now spending at least $85 or more on one bag/box/bundle of hair; today I bought Indian hair-- a cute wet and wavy for the summer-- and when I checked out it was $34 for TWO!!! Is there a significant difference in quality or have I been wasting money all this time?

As my hair gets thicker and longer I find that I cant use my trusty old braid pattern any longer A stylist friend of mine told me the circular beehive pattern is best for longer hair BUT my hair is the thickest at the crown and my weave base was lumpy when I used it.
Do any ladies with long/thick hair have braid pattern suggestions?

@virtuenow thank you much. Yep a full sewin with one of my beloved lace closures lol. I self install and have been for years but just started using lace closures and figuring out how to do a good closure app.

For a full sewin I use a net and sew on that instead of my braids. I sew under the net at the perimeter to hide the braids and wefts. What part of the full sewin process are you having trouble with?

virtuenow said:irisak Thanks, I have trouble with hiding/laying the front tracks and closing everything up. I did a self-made closure. I went to the BSS and they do not have kinky-curly or yaki closures. For the pattern, I braid all my straight back and put two braids up front going down to my ears. I haven't found any good videos for doing a full sew in w/closure. How far back should the closure be? Do you lay the front tracks all the way across the front or do you leave a part? Do you lay them so you can flip your hair back? What kind of net do you use? Is it the hard, wire like net, or a soft mesh/nylon (like stocking cap). Are you able to wash your hair (effectively)? Lots of questions!

virtuenow I've been doing my own sewins for so long that I only watched youtube to learn how to do a closure app and an invisible part and that was awhile ago. I'm at work now, but I can look around when I get home and see if I can find any helpful tutorials.@irisak do you know of any good youtube tutorials?
