EDGY ANGULAR BOB
EAST CLEVELAND, OH
Skevah Gustave, of Beauty & More in Brooklyn, NY, created a hip asymmetric snip using sew-in hair extensions.
Be bold and try a fierce style like this short mane that shows off gorgeous layers curved slightly under around the asymmetric perimeter. After extensions are sewn-in, a razor comb crafts the cut’s delicate shape. Then shears are used to form amazing angles, eye-catching layers and wispy bangs. Sheen spray is applied to tresses before styling with a wire brush.

i have grey hair-since age 15.now i am in my early sixties and want a weave strand by strand and color,plus style.i am worried about damage to my hair and how to prevent that and have healthy haie and get it growing again.
that was a mouth full—thank you
I need advice fast!I’m going on a cruise & I love the water. I wear weaves, but the longer style seems to be high maintenance. I love the curly-kinky look.What kind of hairstyle looks modern & low-maintenance for a week aboard ship?
I love wearing wigs and weaves. I want to get a strand by strand weave, but the only problem I believe exists is that my hair is natural.Is it even possible to get this technique done and what type of hair would you suggest? I do not want to get a relaxer at all
I will like to know where i find the weave fire & water.
Hi corine: The Fire & Water Indian Human Hair weave is made by Sensationnel. Check your local beauty supply store or visit Sensationnel’s Web site.
How do one look after the wigs such as pony tail and have wigs
Hey Marcia Mbona: When wearing wigs on a regular basis, it’s always good to invest in a wig head/stand to help keep your style investment in good shape. Remove the wig nightly, prep it for wear for the following day then place it on the wig stand so the wig retains its shape. As for ponytail hair pieces, the main thing is to keep it smooth and tangle free. Remove it at night, brush through lengths then lay it flat.
I would like to get a straight sew in weave but clueless on what brand hair is the best because I would like to wear the hairstyle for at least 2 months with it napping up. Any suggestions?? I am also on a budget…
Hey Monaka…hope you don’t mind me replying to your comment. But if you want an in-expensive weave that’s Good and reliable I would suggest “Premium Too”…it’s a good quality of hair and always works best for me with good care and if you want more of a true reliable weave you can also try any brand of “Remy Saga” it’s more expensive than the Premium Too and also a better quality. Hope this Helps :)
and also Monaka you can also try the brand “Outre” it’s pretty good
Hi Monaka : If you’re most concerned about the lasting power of your weave, you need to consider investing in Remy human hair. Remy hair has all the hair cuticles facing the same direction. This is why your hair won’t tangle or break unless it is chemically treated, which disrupts the natural cuticle. Hair extensions in Remy form are of the highest quality and will last longer than a synthetic weave.
I will be the most Fierce! Fabulous 40 year old black woman in my or my husband’s family come October 20th of this year! This also happens to be our 9yr wedding anniversary and I would like some mature yet slammin sexy ideas for hairstyles, befitting a lady of my,..ahem…experience…
I’ve always relaxed and/or weaved my hair…Braiding damaged the hairline a while back and I’ve been trying to come up with styles that would camouflage that as well. Oh yeah!…I love long or shoulder length hair,..My yummy, hubby likes the curly afro look, on me that is,…;-/ I know kinda nutty,…
We know you’ve got it goin’ on Leslie! Choose a hairstyle that gives your hairline the least amount of stress. Try a soft, tousled ponytail. That style is hot right now. Keep your hair in its Natural state and give the hairline a chance to recuperate. Wrap your hair in a silk scarf at night to minimize movement, oil the scalp periodically and remember to condition. Once you see an improvement, you can get another weave. However, make sure the hairline is loose and the braiding is not too tight. Also, do not incorporate synthetic hair into the hairline braids.
thank youy…
