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!!!

Should you seal your wefts more than once during the life time of your hair? Thanks!
