I like to plan my hair purchases in advance.For the colder months, I like hair that is very low maintenance. I usually wear wavy hair so I do not have to curl my hair several times a week.I want naturally wavy hair that I can wear in its natural state and still love. All I want to do in the morning is wet my hair a little, apply hair serum and go.
I am still deciding between Peruvian Wavy hair since I have never tried Peruvian Hair or Mongolian Wavy Hair. I really like the quality of my Mongolian Kinky Curly and the color matched my own hair spot on so that is a huge plus for me.
There is a Youtube guru I subscribe to known as Fabulasityisme. I'm sure most of you know who she is. All her hair videos are amazing. Her tutorials are always very detailed and helpful. I love all her hair videos but there are two textures she recently wore that made my Fall/Winter wishlist. Both are wavy textures but one is Mongolian Hair and the other is Peruvian Hair.
What hair is on your Fall/Winter wishlist?
DIY : Sew-in Invisible part wig & 3/4 Wig using Virgin Mongolian Kinky Curly Hair
I was torn between making an invisible part wig or a 3/4 wig with my Virgin Mongolian Kinky Curly Hair. So I decided to make an invisible part U-part wig first, since I've never made one. I did not use any glue to make my wig, not even around the invisible part.
If I had to choose one, I would pick the full wig because it's lower maintenance. But of course the 3/4 wig looked more natural since I had a leave out. This hair is really soft and I love the color, it was a good match with my own hair. Kinky Curly hair is a must have, especially good quality kinky curly hair. Love it ! Love it ! Love it!

| First try on. I'm relaxed and my hair is not blended. |
 |
| I used combs on the inside of my wig to keep it secure. |
After about 2 weeks of wearing the invisible part wig I got tired of the blending process, so I decided to make my wig into a full wig. I actually loosened the entire wig to make my full wig from scratch.

Final Update : 100% Virgin Filipino Hair Extensions
This is my final update on my 100% Virgin Filipino Hair Extensions. See my initial review HERE
This hair gets an A++++++ for versatility. I have worn this hair in so many different ways; with my own hair left out, with my Brazilian lace closure, straight, curled, wet (because it waves up slightly when wet). The best thing about Filipino Hair is that it's low maintenance, versatile and durable.
For everyday, I wear this hair in its natural straight state or wet it .. because it waves up slightly when wet.
My absolute favorite way to wear this hair is curled with a curling iron & bendy rollers. I was skeptical it wouldn't hold curls well because it comes naturally straight but it does.When it's curled it looks very lush and glamorous. This is my go to hair for special occasions because it gives you that va-va voom look.This is the hair I get the most compliments on and I have to say out of all the "Virgin" hair I have worn till date this is hands down the best hair quality wise.
I know this is true Virgin Hair without any processing at all because of the way the hair behaves. If I could find this hair in a wavier natural state, I would say this hair comes close to perfect hair but like you all know there is no such thing as "perfect hair extensions". My only con is that when it is in its straight state, I have to straighten my hair to blend. I am not a fan of hair straighteners or applying heat to my hair so that is a con for me.

Show & Tell: Virgin Mongolian Kinky Curly Hair
I got my Virgin Mongolian Kinky Hair about a month ago but I haven't had the time to do a post.
I got 2 bundles: 16 inches and 18 inches. I did not get a closure as previously planned, since I am transitioning I will attempt to blend my hair by doing braid outs/twist outs.
I split the wefts because I did it HERE and it made the wig appear fuller so I decided to do the same for my own hair. Splitting the weft is time consuming and if you do decide to split your wefts, you have to seal your wefts afterwards.
Next thing I have to do is co-wash the hair and when the hair is fully dried, I'll seal my wefts.
This time I'm going to make my wig a little differently since I want to have very little leave out. I will be attempting to make a wig with a sew-in invisible part in front so it looks like the hair is growing out of my scalp. Then I'll sew combs onto the part area and the sides to attach the wig to my hair. Watch THIS for a better understanding of what I am talking about.

Indian Remy Kinky Curly Hair (4 month update) + My 1st Attempt at a Full Wig
She brought the wig back to me because she wanted me to bring it back to life since she was having some problems taking care of the hair and also because she found it tiresome trying to blend her hair with the wig. So I offered to help her deep condition the wig, loosen the wig and make a brand new full wig instead of a 3/4 Wig. She wants to avoid the hassle of blending because she is relaxed.

| January 19th, 2012: This was the first look at the hair before it was installed. The hair was not washed prior to installation. |
 |
| June 10th, 2012: This is what the hair looks like after it was deep conditioned and air dried. |
You can see from the pictures above that from the first look of the hair, the curls look a little stiff. Even after the first installation, the curls still look somewhat stiff. This is because the hair was not co-washed.
When the hair is co-washed, the curls look more natural.
Making My 1st Full Wig
This will be my first attempt at making a full wig. I used only the 16 inch and 18 inch bundle to make the full wig. The full wig is inspired by Teyana Taylor's hair and Peakmill, see her Youtube video HERE.
The wig has not been styled. I still have to attempt to cut bangs around her face when she tries it on. The wig is really full considering I used only 2 bundles but I split the wefts so it looks fuller.
| Styling: We cut bangs into the wig and spritz the hair with a mixture of (water +conditioner) |
The hardest thing about making a full wig without a lace closure is closing it at the top. I need more practice.
