Had this hair in for 3 months. Obsessed. Highly recommend this color for golden-toned girlies 😮‍💨🔥 Very underutilized lol

Here is the info:

FREETRESS 3X FRENCH CURL BRAID 22" (3T1B3027)

(I would link it, but I bought mine at a beauty store, so idk which would be best)

Any tips and tricks y’all please and thank you

Loving the journey so far. I started and self maintain and think I’m doing pretty good. I’m loving the style! How’s it looking for far?

​

First few pics are 2 weeks after my install, and the last picture is Day 1. I honestly think this has become my favorite hairstyle I’ve ever had 👏🏾😩

I loved the hair when I first got it done, but I actually like it even more now. It’s gotten easier for me to work with, and every time I moisturize it, it gets bigger and fluffier, which makes it look and feel even more like natural hair to me.

I was curious about how the curls would hold up over time, but two weeks in, I really love how they’re aging. I actually prefer how full they look now compared to Day 1.

I’m excited to see how they continue to look over the next few weeks!

Probably my magnum opus. Not sure how I’m gonna top this

I’ve been wanting to try this specific style of boho for forever now, and I’m not sure which kind to purchase, and recommendations?! And it can be human or synthetic I have no preference!

This was my second attempt and it came out perfecttt 🥹 cornrows in the front to spice it up because I was going to a 🇯🇲 independence party 💃🏼

I’ve been having so much fun experimenting with hairstyles since getting hair extensions! These styles don't take much time but look super cute. I’m constantly trying out new looks,so if you have any hairstyle recommendations that you think would suit me, please let me know! It’s from Luvme!

I had struggled over the decision to get micro locs. I was afraid I'd get tired of them and regret it. But I'm so happy that I took the plunge. In the end, I went home to the Caribbean for 2 weeks and got it done (so much cheaper). I wanted to interlock from the start since I have 3 different textures of hair and I know the back would not stay at all with twists or braids. 17 hours and worth it. So happy with my progress and I've loved them from day 1. I also love the fact that my ends are still curly. I hope they stay that way.

I DO NOT WANT RELAXER OR ANYTHING OF THAT SORTS. I want to maintain my curly hair, i do not add heat often. This is probably my first time straightening in the last 4 years. I want advice for next time i want to try this style.

The photograph is titled “Hair Like Mine” taken in 2009.

While visiting the Oval Office with his dad, former National Security Council staffer Carlton Philadelphia in 2009, five-year-old Jacob Philadelphia surprised then President Barack Obama with a single question: "Is your hair like mine?"

Obama, standing by the Oval Office, responded by bowing over, so Jacob could hold his hand outstretched and feel for himself.

"Go ahead, touch it," the then-president said at the time.

I am a natural hair GIRL, but I get tired. My lace game SUCKS but this wig was $50.

i knew she needed bangs but I have no experience cutting hair. Welp, two tutorials later and I got family members telling me I look unrecognizable and ppl in cars doing double takes.

p.s WIG GRIPS WORK!!!

I went to try a new twist hairstyle and I’m absolutely in love I’m usually a silk press/braids girly but I decided to do something different this time. Safe to say I’m not disappointed ☺️it’s natural and very light weight with versatility🥰

I've tried to dye them red before but the shade wasn't bright enough on my dark brown hair. The tips only cooperated because they were already a light brown lol. And I don't want to bleach my hair! 😫 Any hair dye recommendations?
