who wears weaves during the winter ?? I need some inspiration

[Teja]

Hi ladies,

Its been a year since my last install and I just ordered some hair that I'm very excited about...I usually only install in the winter because its too cold to co-wash as often as I do.
.Is anyone installing for xmas? If so what styles ? I could really use some pic heavy inspiration!!!

subscribing. im wiggin and weavin it this winter. this humid/rainy weather keeps messing up my wash n sets

 

[growinghealthyhair]

I'm wearing a relaxed texture with bangs. It's not a sew-in though, i made a wig with a closure. I've been making the u-part wigs more often than getting sew-ins lately.

I think Im weaving for the winter. How do you ladies keep your hair nice under the weave

 

[ProfectivGirl]

Yes indeed I am weaving it up!! I normally do a quick weave/invisible part or a sew in/invisible part. I keep them in 2-3 weeks at a time and I always always focus on my hair underneath. Here's a few pics, i.normally rock a long style or a shoulder bob

You make them. Don't know if it's made in stores.

im doin weaves all winter long !!!!!!! I have to take mine down every 4-5 weeks. Wash, deep condition, & protein, then re-install , to keep hair from tangles & matting up. ( I will give hair a 1-2 week rest, in between)

I made my own, but i'm having someone make one for me as well. I get lazy sometimes So you can get them made if you purchase from a cv.

I've actually made quite a few adjustments to it, so it looks even better. I love it. It's lasting much longer than any install because i'm able to either sew it on to wear it long term (usually a week or two), or clip it on so that i can remove it daily. I love it!

Actually there are a few vendors who make them. I plan on purchasing very soon.

Very nice. I just dont have the time to make me one so I am buying one from a CV

Hehe. Looks like you're already in the "know". Yup. I was estatic when I found out CV make them too. I still would have made this one myself though, since i used very expensive hair (Extensions Plus) that I couldn't find any where else. I love it though.(Yes, I'm going to keep saying that lol)

And it actually doesn't take very long to make one. I made mine over twice. It was nothing. And i'm super slow at sewing.

 

[RegaLady]

Sigh, I want a sew in, badly...

 

[WhippedButterCreme]

I'm going to get a weave, but I'm kind of worried...Like how do you care for your hair underneath? Some people say they dilute shampoo w/ water...but how do you moisturize your hair underneath?

Also some ladies say it's the same as taking care of braid extensions, but I can actually spray my hair with product...

Any help here for a weave soon-to be newbie??

Its been a minute since I've worn weaves but I remember
using an applicator bottle to place the moisturizer on my braids trying hard not to get anything on my scalp.

Thank you! Applicator bottle...So basically you're spraying the moisture/oils on the fake hair, and it'll osmosis down into your braided hair? Do I have that right? lol

 

[Daeuiel]

lol @ osmosis

I'm hair lazy so I only did a curly weave once to see if I could pull it off, and to moisturize I also used the applicator bottle to squirt the moisturizer under the weave onto my braids, no osmosis required

pics are from Christmas 2010, I was REALLY happy to get that video game
