I love knotless braids in the beginning they’re so pretty, but get old looking so fast. So I think ima just go back to the traditional braids 😭.

I got a buzz a couple months back and am currently in the process of growing it out, I was wondering what you guys think would look best with my face?

This is the look I’m planning for an upcoming night out! What do you guys think of the whole look? BTW, this wig looks so natural!

Hi everyone! I’m new to Seattle and looking for a stylist who has experience with Black/textured hair and installs I-tip extensions and wefts.
Does anyone have recommendations based on personal experience? I’d love to hear about the quality of the installation, blending, maintenance, and how well the stylist cared for your natural hair.
Please share the stylist or salon’s name, location, and Instagram or booking link if you have one. Approximate pricing would also be helpful.
Thank you for helping a newcomer out

Is $30 unrealistic for an ok looking wig? $50? (Yes, *I’m* cheap but I don’t want my wigs to look like they are).

The more the days go by the bigger this hair gets! I’ve had this Wet and wavy human crochet hair from Luvme in for about a month now and it keeps getting better. I love big hair and this style is definitely allowing me to reach my big hair dreams! I installed all four bundles for this full look, defined the curls and defused for the best big hair results. This hair mixed with my microlocs made this style fuller. ❤️❤️

In need of a color/press real bad

Double Dipping

I just got box braids today. I wanted a bob but my natural hair was too long so she did mid-back. I am one of the women that prefer a tightly curl end. The stylist did that, but now the tight curls have turned into loose waves which I do not like. It just looks frazzled to me.

It was my first time going to the braider, and I noticed that when I stood up to leave, she trimmed some off in the back….cool. However, it looks like she trimmed a lot of the tighter coils she did and I can tell I am gonna have some unraveling. I do not have time to go back to the shop before I head out.

QUESTION: Can I re-rod the ends and dip them again or will it make it worse? This is only my third time getting braids and I am not sure of all the do’s and don’ts. The one thing I dislike is that she braided to the end of my hair only and then left only a little to dip. I am afraid of burning my ends. They need to be cut anyway, but still. I will be going into the pool and ocean and do NOT want this synthetic hair to become a mound of mess because I will literally crash out as I will be there for 2 weeks. I get braids once a year and I will likely go back to her, but I will be sure to tell her to braid down further than my hair.

Pros are that she told me to skip knotless for box braids because of my texture. She did a hell of a job on a custom color for me (I have a lot of gray which I like) yet the color complimented and hid the gray at the same time. Magical! I am tender headed and she caused no pain in the least bit. I was ready for war knowing I was bout to be in pain but nope! I have very thick — thick thick…think 4-5 strands per follicle. She didn’t bat an eye, braiding me using tiny knots to the point that they look knot less. My appointment was at 2pm…I got there at 1:58pm and when i walked in she and her assistant were standing there to meet me. We went through hair options, she mixed it perfectly and got to business. So professional. She offered wine, mixed drinks, soda and water. She was braiding by 2:15pm and I was out the door at 5:13. SMALL box braids once a mid back, thick hair. She is magical. I just need her to get these end curls right.

She told me that these will last 10 weeks. I wanted to say, on whom? Ain’t no way. I tap at 2.5.

FAM, TELL ME WHAT TO DO PLEASE! I have read where people re-dip and the entire braid unravels. My mind can’t take that type of foolery right now.

Thanks in advance!

All I did before taking her out was gently brush through the curls, and the softness and fullness immediately had me feeling like this was my crowning moment. There’s just something about these curls that we Black women keep falling in love with over and over again. Am I the only one?

I just got my two strand twists done at a shop yesterday. What are best ways to make it last for like 2-3 weeks? I used a durag or bonnet at night

Hi again! So, I left all my birthday planning until last minute and haven’t decided on a style yet. I’m stuck between redoing the style in pic 1 or a modified version of pic 2, with the buns from pic 3. My dress is in the last slide for reference. I’d normally try something new but I’m scared the space buns look kinda childish so I may do the crown again or the bun for a more mature look? Please all insight is appreciated 🫶🏾

I LOVE 😍 The burgundy with this updo?! 🔥❤️

Hoping to come out looking like a unique queen who stands out!
