Greetings to all of my BHM refugees, and all of the divas around the way. I got some hair crack for you!!!!!!!!! I got 2 new lfs around the end of February. One was a loose wave, and the other was a loose curl 1.8 cm. I immediately appleid the loose wave and loved it. Last night I finally broke down and applied the loose curl one after bleaching the knots, washing, conditioning, etc. I really like it alot. I reminds me of one of my wavy ones that I have. Here are the specs: Indian remy Loose curl 1.8 cm 18" #3 reverse ventilated wavy baby hairs
extra light to light medium density. I used percentages to specify what I wanted for each section. lace front cap with adjustable straps at the nape brown swiss lace I went got my hair cut today by the same chick that has been cutting my lfs. She did an excellent job as always, but I think it is still just a little long. What do you all think. Anyways here's the link to my fotki. http://public.fotki.com/brehanne/lace-fronts/my-first-curly-unit/ - http://public.fotki.com/brehanne/lace-fronts/my-first-curly-unit/ pw: firstcurly |

| Thanks Nola, its a #3, so I guess that would be a medium dark brown since a #2 is dark brown, and a #4 is medium brown. |

You're welcome.
Reverse ventilated baby hairs are ventilated so that they naturally fall forward. When you don't specify they will just ventilate the baby hairs in the same manner that they do the rest of the lf. Sometimes it can be difficult to get the baby hairs to lay down since they are not ventilated to lay in that direction. That's why I always get the reverse ventilated. It just looks more natural. I sorry, but can't really tell who the vendor was for this lf. A girl has got tot have some secrets, but I can make some recommendations. I used Jacksun many times and he is great for curlys/wavy. Also I have seen Rex's work, and he is good too.
Thanks
You're welcome. I had to bring the hair crack. You know you lf crackheads can't go that too without a hit.
Thanks girl.
Thanks flawless.
I love the #3 color. I don't think I look good with dark hair, and #2 is too dark for me so this is my signature color. I order all of my lfs in this color and it makes it easy to change up styles and not have anyone question me.
Thanks Asia.
QUOTE=Asia35]Breh who's the vendor and what percentages did you use for each for each section.
thanks...I love it[/QUOTE] I am all for sharing, but I really can't tell who the vendor is this time. I can recommend Jacksun. I have used him in the past and he does and will do a great job.
This is the specs I used when I ordered from Jacksun previously.
Extra light to light medium density

Yeah, Sexi I'm cheating!! I got a new boo!!! You can have Jacksun to yourself.
I really do apologize ladies. I love sharing, I really do, but I just can't tell this time. It would be like Zara or Rotesha from All About My Hair telling their secret vendor.

Thanks ladies. I have a spray bottle mixed with water, glycerine, and Biolage Detangling Soulition. The mixture is probably 70% water, with the rest being a whole bottle of glycerine and a little of the detangling solution. Shake well to make sure it is mixed thoroughly. I was just using water and glycerine until today when I went to get my hair cut. The girl that cuts my hair always sprays it with a solution and I asked her finally what it was because my hair would always be so soft, and silky after it dried and she told me it was a mixture of water with a little of the Biolage Detangling soultion. I really love the results. My curls are defined, seperated, soft and silky. Too keep your curls from poofing make sure you are not messing with the hair while it drys. Once you style it, and scrunch leave it alone. Take the hands away from the hair. Once the hair is dry, then you can finger comb or pull apart the curls. HTH

Thanks Ms.Liberty. I really love the #3 color, that is my signature color. I may change it up a bit one day. I think the length is a little too long. I usually cut mine about 2 inches shorter, but I left it longer this time. I like it, but at the same time it is longer than any of my other lfs. |

| That looks really good Breh. I loved how the long hair looked on you. You could have just told people you had a high class weave with special tracks or something if they asked about the longer length. They wouldn't have a clue - especially since your units are the same color. The shoulder length hair looks good as well and she did a good job with your cut. Did she straighten it before cutting it? Did she use scissors or a razor? |

Thanks for the compliments ladies. Curlygirl, I went there with my hair partially damp for her to cut it and she sprayed a little of her water and conditioner solution on it also. She just cut it with scissors and just smoothed the hair with her hand to straighten it. That's it. She is really good and the best part is the hair cut always cost $8.00 not including my tip. I'm still thinking of cutting this one maybe an inch or two shorter. The one in my avi is not really shoulder length, it just looks like that. It is longer than that probably 3 inches or so, but this one is a little longer than bra strap length in the back and comes past my arm pits in the front. I like it though, I really do. I just don't want to be obvious since all of my others aren't this long. |

ooohhh! I love it. Thanks for posting the curl size, because I've been looking for something that texture, but couldnt describe whether it was a curly or a wavy...duh. It looks great on you. I guess you've found a great summer look. |
Posted By: Breh
Date Posted: March 17 2008 at 4:04pm
| Thanks ladies. I belive it is 1.8 cm loose curl. I like it because it is not too much to handle like a lot of curlies can be. |

| how long of a hold does the HD white bonding adhesive give you? |
Posted By: Breh
Date Posted: March 19 2008 at 7:16am
|
It holds for 6 days, and that is good enough for me since I take it off once a week to do my hair treatments. It probably could last longer if you layer it with something else, but I don't. |

Date Posted: March 19 2008 at 7:27am
ok i remember you saying this about this adhesive this morning but what's it called again..

Posted By: Breh
Date Posted: March 19 2008 at 9:08am
HD White Bonding Adhesive you can get it from http://www.hairdirect.com - www.hairdirect.com I like it because it is easy to clean up and it holds good enough for me because ORGW didn't hold a day.
