Always Kinky-UnbeWEAVEable


So I have embarked on a quite interesting field trip recently. I have entered the world of weave land. It has been quite nice actually and I would definitely do it again. The stylist told me I could keep it in for 2 months but I barely lasted 1 month. While I am Always Kinky everyone does not have to know this all of the time *cheese*!

Here are my pro's and con's


 

ProsCons
It was fullIt was too long
The texture matched wellI had to maintain as if it were my own
I did not have to mess in my hairI was more self conscious
I could wash it when I wantedI don't know if my scalp was clean
It was a pleasant changeIt was tight in the beginning

 

FAQ :

What type did I use?

Bohyme Brazilian ($90 and up depending on the length)

Was it worth it?

I think so, I wanted to be able to wash and treat the hair normally so it was pretty good quality.

Would you do it again?

Absolutely, I would definitely make it shorter next time but I really enjoyed the experience J.

About that, a couple of tweeps and I have noticed that there are different types of Natural Hair DIVAs!


 

I have found all types of #natural hair in my life. A conversation on Twitter led me to this blog today. I think there are 3 types of Natural Hair sistas out there. This is only from my own personal observations.

  1. A Type- Learning a discovering natural hair, this type is asking questions and is very proud of their hair and and their own personal hair changes that have been made.
  2. B Type- Most likely been natural hair for a while and respects all forms of hair care. This person may wear their hair in all types of styles: weaves, braids, afro, straight or twists. As long as its healthy to each their own.
  3. C Type- Natural Hair Activist this type is so excited about their own hair accomplishments that they think it is the only way for someone to wear their hair. This type also looks down on hair that is different from their own hair choices.
This is not a rant or a complaint but a mere observation. There is also the under discovered issue between what is real natural hair and you can check out my You Tube channel for that episode ;-)

What type of Natural Hair Chick are you?
