My Install | 2 Week

It has been two weeks since I had got my hair installed. I did not write an first impression review when I had received my hair. But to give you some details on it. My hair was purchased on Aliexpress and the vendor was Rosa Hair Products. I purchased 3 bundles of the Malaysian body wave in 14-16-18 for $136. Free shipping and it was decent. I order my hair late Thursday night and received it Tuesday. Packaging was normal. The bundles were in their individual plastic bags. The hair was very soft and there was no shedding what so ever. There was a scent to the hair, like a barbie hair smell is the best I can compare it to. Not smelly but an annoying smell.


I colored all three bundles a soft black because they were more of a brown black hair color. I then washed the bundles and the smell was still in the hair not as noticeable but it was there. I then decided to wash it again to see if the smell would completely disappear even did a ACV rinse lol. It was now a faint smell. I applied my Creme of Nature Leave In and that had did the trick.

2 Weeks later there is no smell and the hair is holding up great. I have curled the hair and it holds a curl amazing. I have very minimal shedding about one strand will come out. The hair is very low maintenance to me. All I have to do is comb through it and go. When I had first washed the hair the body wave was not noticeable it pretty much went away. So for my upcoming wash day (since I decided to wash every two weeks) I will see if it returns or if its gone. So far so good. (sorry for the bad pics)

  1. wow in the pic the bodywave appears as if you flat ironed it, not even a slight wave. the back view is lovely though keep us informed whether that wave comes back. im anxious as i too have a bodywave which i have yet to wash and install.

Umm, Hey ?!

I  have not written a post in over a few months now & I feel a little okay about it. I just was not in the mood to really write about hair. It just started to become repetitive & a little boring to me. Don't get me wrong I still plan on documenting my hair journey & I still enjoy everything hair related. It was just a moment for me that I was kind of over it. I have been enjoying my hair length & been using heat a little too much, but that's okay. I mean isn't that the point of reaching your goal length, to enjoy it in whatever way you want? Well I definitely did & now it's time to get back to my normal hair routine. I still have a long term goal I want to achieve. So let's see where I go from here. This is my small space on the internet & I don't plan on abandoning it any time soon.

Hair Length Check In

I can not believe how far my hair has come. My hair has been in a protective for half the year, which was a sew-in. I did not have a sew in for the summer I gave my hair a break. I am currently debating if I should get another sew in for the colder months that is coming but I am not sure. My hair feels fuller & thicker. I was even asked if I had a weave in lol. Here is my current length. Am I Mid-Back length ? This picture was taken in Oct/13  Here is my current length as of Oct/14

Giving Weave A Try | Update

I have been thinking about changing my hair a lot recently from the color to deciding if I want to relax it. I just been bored with my hair and I have been trying to do as many natural styles but its either I can't do it, doesn't come out right or it doesn't look right on me. I don't want to manipulate my hair anymore. I'm done with experimenting with color on my own hair and I don't want to continue putting heat on my hair just to cause damage. Soooooo I been thinking about trying out weave? I been looking into it for awhile but now I'm doing my research on it. I don't see any harm in getting weaves what so ever. I can color it and put heat on it I can also pick different textures. Only thing that's holding me back is that awkward feeling of people knowing your actual length and then the next day your hair is down your back lol. But I can get over it I think. This would be a great protective style and I'm hoping it can last for at least 3 months...
