WHY I WEAR WEAVE!!!!

So initially I had a post already written and ready to go. Then I look at my notes and I decided that I should stick to my original timeline. That post will be coming so though. My weave wearing is a personal choice. Every woman that wear weave is not a bald headed nor have short hair. I know so many women that wear weave that have long hair. Some people do not wear weave for length. There are a variety of reasons why some people wear weave, some being for: • Volume • Versatility • Convenience • Protective styling and many other reasons. My reasoning behind wearing weave for the most part would be protecting styling. I have really thick hair and it is a lot of work to getting it into a straighten hair style. I love my hair, don’t get me wrong. I love it in its natural state. I whether wear my hair in natural hair styles when I do wear it. There are many different protective styles out there but I just love the looks that I can achieve with weave. It also helps me to avoid heat damage on my own hair. The second reason I choose to wear hair weave would be versatility. I can go from curly to straight. Big voluptuous curls to bone straight hair. I can have waves or a long pony tail. I can change my hair color without damaging my hair. I am the type of person that likes to change my hair a lot. Weave give me that option. The third reason I wear weave is because it is convenient. With wearing your own hair you have to go to the salon to get it done once a week or every other week. Or you spend hours on end doing your own hair. Once your hair is done you have to worry about when you are going to have to do it or get it done again. With weave it seem as though curls last longer, when you curl it. You can sleep on it without wrapping it up it pretty much looks the same. You can put as much heat on it without worrying about it burning out. A lot of time depending on the style I have, I can get up and run a comb or brush through my hair and head out the door. It’s that simple. It takes so much time out of me getting ready. So with all this being said I hope this gives you insight on why I personally wear weave. I know that weave may not be everybody’s thing but maybe this will help somebody. I may help to give you an understanding of why others may wear weave or even why you yourself wear weave. Always remember the choice is yours!!! Ms. Esh

Overview!!!

I decided that I wanted to create a blog to share my knowledge on hair. I love hair! Hair is such an important aspect to women, as well as some men. I'm not a professional stylist and nor do I want to be. Hair is just a passion of mines that I enjoy. I spend a lot of time researching hair techniques as well as new trends that are in occurrence. I like to experiment with my hair a lot. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So my main focus for this blog is to share as much information as I know about hair. I also have interests in other thing that maybe be shared on here at a later date. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So let's talk about my hair. So as of right now I am a hundred percent natural. Which in my terms meaning that my hair is in no way shape or form chemical processed. I have not had a relaxer in 8 years and I haven’t had hair color in about for or 5 years. Although I am 100% natural I do not wear my natural hair. So this is not going to be a natural hair blog but I will talk about my natural hair from time to time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So how do I wear my hair? I wear a 24 inch virgin Russian hair weave. This weave is sewed on to a u-part and I have a 14 inch lace closure connected to it. So some of the terminology may be foreign to some people. My plans with this blog are to educate people on what these things are, but that will come in another entry. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So some people may wonder why I choose to wear weave over my own hair. It simple it’s my hair, it’s my life, it’s my choice. LOL!!! I plan to go into deeper detail with that in a later post. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think that this is a nice snippet of what’s to come and I'm going to stop here. I don't want my blogs to be so long that people will not want to read them. So I hope this caught your attention and will bring you back to see what's in store. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aspire For Greatness, XOXO Ms.Esh
