Kinky Curly pics

Okay, I'm late to the game too. I saw this yesterday and loved "your" hair. Either way, it's yours because you grew or purchased it.

I've been contemplating a low maintenace weave for the rest of the year and this is just what I want.

Gorgeous!!

Yes, it's a sewin. A little bit of hair was left out in the front..about 1" on the side, and 2" at the top. I think she sewed it in a circle pattern.

Yeah I haven't seen the pictures yet(I'm at work and have to wait til I'm home) Any way when I want to achieve that very full look and that sort of "hump" at the top-having my hair braided in a circle always yields the best for that full head of hair look because of the continuous lines across the front curving perfectly versus a zig zag or straight back braiding method. This is probably part of the help for the extra va va voom in volume that the ladies are loving in your new sewin. I can't wait to see the pictures with yours done, I did see the hair site and It's gorgeous....a bit pricey for my hair allowance but it is definitely some pretty hair. :)

I just wanted to add before you get the hair, and say Ediese never warned me. It is low maintenance in that if you're natural/transitioning, you dont' have to do anything to blend it. However, this hair is kinky so it does tend to tangle. You will have to make sure that you keep it moisturized in order for it not to look dry. Other than that, it's great!

I pm'd you.

I'm natural and I don't mind putting some moisturizer on it everyday.
Did you wear wash and go's before this?

How long do you leave it in for?

No. I never did wash and go's because I still have straight ends. I did braidouts though.

I usually leave my sew-ins for 3 months.

How did your hair hold out and look when you co-washed it in relation to how the kc looked.



Where do you buy it from?

If I did a wash n go, it would coil up the same, but when my hair dries if I don't put fantasia gel, it dries really frizzy. When I cowash with the kc, I don't have that problem.
 
WOW! It blends PERFECTLY with your hair!!! Unbelievable!

I saw the first picture and was thinking, "My hair could look like this in 4 years!" LOL! Until I saw that it's a weave.

Your hair in front looks similar to my h air in front, I'm off to your fotki.
 
Ediese,


I been obsessing over your beautiful hair since the first post. :love:

I want to know.... Do you think I can achieve the same look? I want my hair to look like yours for my b-day.

Here is my hair two months ago....

I think it would blend if you brushed it out a little. If you wanted to wear it more defined, then maybe you could do a twist/braidout on the hair you leave out. That would blend.
 
dayumn!! that look good girl!! I thought I was good, but girl, you got the crown! You are officially the "fool em up queen!"
 
Ediese, your hair looks fabulous!

I'm a weave spotter and if I saw you in person, I would not think twice about that hair not being your own. It is really lovely on you girl.

I want that weave in my head.......lol! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

I have this hair and I am a 4B. It is a tad bit harder to blend but it is doable. My hair is fairly short so I just put some gell on it and brush it back. Then I tie a scarf around it until I get ready to leave the house and it blends right in. If your hair is long, you will have to get a little creative. I haven't crossed that bridge yet. I will let know.
 
Wow I just got to see the pictures and it is so gorgeous-okay I'm jealous lol! :) Very beautiful....can't wait til I can do more to my hair.
 
Thanks a million for the pics and the link. As my hair continues to thin with no end in sight and nothing I try working, I've resigned myself to hairpieces and weaves if I want to look decent and be able to wear a "style." :sad:

What I have always hated is the fact that nothing looked like MY hair. It was all this unbeweavable European silky or some supposedly "Afro" texture that looked like steel wool or carpet and nothing I've ever seen on a person's head. It is so great to see that changing. That hair looks like a dead ringer, though my last weave fooled folks too and it wasn't even that close to my hair. :perplexed
 
That is beautiful and so natural looking. I never would have guessed it was a sew in.

Ediese, does brushing the kinky curly hair cause it to frizz up? And does itact all wierd or get all tangled when you wash it? Does it come with any washing/care instructions, etc? Thanks in advance.
 
That is a great look! And I would agree with your coworkers in thinking it is yours.
 
I'm mad because I really want to try this hair but I only have about 3/4 inch of new growth and lots of relaxed ends.I wouldnt know how to blend so I'll leave it alone for now...
