Wigs and Weaves






Women's Hottest Accessory
Whether you are looking for added length or thickness, want to try a new look or cut, or just giving your hair a break from every day styling. Weaves and Wigs are the way to go. Today there are so many choices to choose from.
There are so many types of hair to choose from. Indian hair is the best hair available. The hair is cuticle free, which means it doesn’t tangle. This hair is definitely an investment but can be taken washed and reused. But the straightest hair is not for everybody.
Many women want to wear weaves the resemble their own hair. If you are looking for hair to blend with yours, don’t rule out the Asian hair. You just have to shop around for what is the best for you. Remy, Yaky and even Synthetic hair is made to look like natural hair and a lot more affordable.

Lace Front Wigs
Worn by stars like Beyonce and Tyra, lace front wigs are the latest Phenomenon! They allow the freedom of sporting various styles. Your hair is braided and the lace front is put on like a regular wig but secured at the hairline with a lace strip. The lace strip is glued to the forehead and covered with makeup.



Custom Made Cap Wigs
Wigs designed just for you. Combination of a wig and a weave. Created by attaching hair wefts to a custom mesh cap. Hair is attached to by bonding or sewing. The hair is then cut and styled. Great for women who want to try a short hair style without losing length or for the woman who want to add length without sewing or bonding their own hair. Great alternative for women experiencing hair loss.




Hair Fusion
This is a strand by strand method that gives a look of hair growing from the scalp. Bulk hair is attached to the individual strand by adhesive or micro rings. Time consuming but offers great flexibility. Looks very natural. Should last up to two months.





Sewn-in Weave
Your hair is braided into cornrows and hair wefts are sewn onto braids. This is the safest way to weave. Great for people trying to give their hair a break from every day styling. Should last up to two months.



Maintenance
Weaves should help your hair grow if properly maintained. So many companies are offering under wig and weave products. You have to maintain your weave as you would your own hair. Wash and condition your hair every two weeks. It is important to keep your scalp clean and nourished. Comb and wrap at night. Wigs should be kept clean and stored on a wig head to retain shape. Purchase a wig shampoo specially formulated with mild detergent then let it air dry. Spray wig styling spray that is oil free. Wigs should last up to six months if cared for properly.
