Hi Ladies,
*Update: How the heck do I keep it looking like it does below??? When it dried it got poofy and looks suspect around the part. I was thinking of trying seb. wet. I know it's a product issue cause it looks great wet. I read the thread about the curly products, but I don't want to buy them all. I need to keep it weighed down.
Here are some pics of me in the bodywave that I dyed yesteday. The hair is chinese hair and it is as soft as butter. A warning though...I have on absolutely no makeup, a huge sweatshirt, and the hair is wet! I love the reverse vent. babyhairs...THANKS BREH!!!!
Any critiques are welcomed!

That's really pretty and I am LOVING that baby hair. It looks really fine and thin like real baby hair.
I also like the density of the unit. It's perfect  Did you thin it out or did it come like that ?

Thanks CG!
You know Breh is a guru, so it came just like this. The only thing I did was darken it cause I'm scared of anything lighter than a 2. It is a lace front, so it was easy to apply.

Thanks P&B!
I used proflex tape tabs cut into threes up to my temples and invisbond glue on the top. The back had adj. straps. It was easy and I realized that all of the other lfs I've had weren't the right size!

Hey Griff,
Girl you look great. I'm glad you like the lfs. I wasn't wearing them. They were just laying around so I might as well send them to a new mommie.
Hey Curlygirl, I thinned the unit out a long time ago. It was light to medium, density but was still too thick.

Thanks. It was just too thick and I cut a new hairline in that one too and created the baby hairs. That one came to me with no temple so I just got to work basically.

Different people prefer different products but I personally don't believe in putting too many products on my curly units. It just makes them tangle faster and can start to make them look poofy. All you need to do is use a spray bottle to re-wet the hair all over then rub a small amount of Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine through it. You can buy it at the grocery store. By little I mean just 1 pump for your whole head and concentrate on the ends or wherever you got the poof factor going on. That's it. Then just leave it alone and let it air dry. The hair will be very sleek soft and manageable once it's dry. It won't look greasy or get hard like some products can do. It will just look natural and healthy.

WOW !! Your work is flawless. I already know how to create my own baby hairs thanks to you but I've never cut a new hairline. I might have to try that on one of my old units. I'll be glad when you get your business up and running cuz I can't wait to buy from you. I LOVE to see a sista doing her thang and doing it well. You put your foot into Griff's unit.

Thanks Curlygirl. I just love experimenting and perfecting things. Griff, I love my mixture of the glycerin, water, and Biolage Detangling solution. It works great and doesn't cause the hair to be poofy, keeps it most and doesn't cause a lot of build up or tangles either.

beautiful unit... what is reverse vent? whatever it is I think I want me some!

Reverse ventilated baby hairs are ventilated so that they naturally fall forward. Basically they are ventilated in the opposite direction of the rest of the hair. You won't have to worry about having to make the lie down since they are ventilated to do so.

I guess I should have known that but it's never to late to learn something new and helpful. This is noted in my LF book thanks
