Why should you seal your wefts?

When buy expensive virgin hair or any expensive weave you want to protect you investment. So how might you do so? By sealing your weft. So what exactly is sealing the wefts? It's when put your choice of sealant on to the weft.

 

 

This process consist of you coating the weft with the sealant on both sides. This then create a coating on the weft.

 

 

This coating on the weft helps bind your hair to the weft. So once this is done it help the hair to stay in the weft , which equates to less shedding or none at all. Now you understand why sealing the weft is important. Some wefts are constructed very well so you will have little to no shedding. I whether not take the chance of thinking of have a good weft and my expensive virgin hair starts shedding all over the floor.

 

 

Ladies don't act like you haven't had a bad batch of hair. It's all over your bathroom, all over your bed, all in your car and you just leave a trail of hair everywhere you go. It's embarrassing. So I say just take out the time to seal your weft so you can protect your investment. Now on to the different kind of weft sealants. I have yet to try a weft sealant. When I first start looking for a sealant, it was hard to find locally. I'm the type of person that when I want to do something, I want to do it now. I didn't have the patience to order it online. So I went to my favorite place (YouTube) and saw two option that I could get from my local craft store. One was Fray Check and the other was Arlene Fabric Fusion. My first time sealing my wefts I use the Fray Check.

 

 

It work well , minimal shedding. Its a very light coating on the weft. It seems as if my weft was still protected. After time I felt as if with each wash it came off. So I finally located the Arlene Fabric Fusion.

 

 

Now this one gave more of a coverage to the weft and I felt as of the weft was more protected than with the Fray Check. The only that I didn't like ,it took away some of the flexibility of the weft.

 

 

I think that overall I still like it the best. It looks like there maybe other options in the local beauty supply so I will check them out next time there is a need for me to seal my wefts. So I hope I covered everything about sealing wefts. Feel free to ask questions. I will answer them to the best of my ability. I will also be doing a post about how to install your seal wefts and also how to seal you lace closure. Until next time, stay beautiful!!!

Nails and product review!!!

So on May 3rd I sat at my desk annoyed with lifted up gel on my nails. I knew that I was going to go get them done later on that day , so I proceeded to pull the gel off of my nails. Some broke because of the technique I use to remove them. I really didn't mind because I was due for a cut down. I was sadden to see that one of my nails had broken down to the meat and I could not get my usual gel overlay. When I got to nail shop I still question them if it could be done. Even though my nail was broken to the meat it happen prior to me taking the gel overlay off so it was already healed. I had 3 people tell me it could be done. Finally the 4th told me not to do it. He told me to get a manicure and stop getting that stuff put on my nails. He buffed my nails instead of polishing them and sent me on my way. Prior to him doing this, I had been wear gel overlay for over 3 years. It felt vey weird not having the coating of protection on my nails. Things that I use to with my nail I no longer could. No more punching holes in containers. Now being that I wore gel overlay for so long I thought my nails would've been In really bad shape. Surprisingly they were strong. So I will get another gel overlay in the future but for right now I'm going to take care of my natural nails.

 

With all that being said. I'm going to talk about 2 of the products that I tried out. The first product is the VitaSurge Growth Gel.

 

 

It promise longer healthy nails in 5 days. It's a gel that you apply daily. So to be honest, I didn't use it for 5 days straight . I would forget to put it on, it's hard for me to follow routines. What I did notice is when I applied it for a couple days in a row, My nails were stronger. If one broke it would grow back within a couple days. I don't believe that I would have receive a great deal of growth if use on a consistent basis. I would give it a 6 of 10. It has done some good for my nails but not enough to recommend you to spend $6.88.

 

I will do another review once I finish the whole bottle.

 

The second item is called Manicure Station.

 

 

I purchased it from the Dollar store and I love it. It help keep all the polish out if the creases. 

It made polishing my nails easier. You have to get use to using it but its pretty simple, just a lil awkward. Overall I would say go to you local Dollar store and see if they have it. I hope you enjoy this little nail talk.
