Hey Chicas!!!!
Weaves tend to have a certain stigma attached to them...but in all honesty their a great means to change up your look, or enhance it without to much trouble. BUT, the problem i see is not getting weaves its in their maintenance. Ladies please!!!!! It peeves me to no end to see women with atrocious ratty weaves! First of all weaves can be used to also give ones hair a break from constant styling. It can be a good thing. But it can also damage your hair and scalp. Proper maintenance is key!!!!! When washing if all t he hair is not dried properly mold can develop, damaging the scalp and hair. Not washing at all only creates an ideal environment for bacterial growth. Moisturizing your own hair beneath the weave is also something the ladies need to keep in mind. Out of site out of mind will leave you with brittle, dry and breaking hair post-weave. Using heavy greases will only allow for gross build up in the scalp. Try coconut oil, or jojoba oil in the scalp and braided hair. They are both light oils that are maximally moisturizing. Weaves are definitely fun and allow youv ersatility with your look, but don't neglect your homegrown tresses beneath!!!

It shocks me that no one left a comment in this section. I frankly, have never had a weave, but I witness all too often, what you're describing. But I have a question, to which the answer just may be an obvious one: does HOW a weave is put into the hair also influence its affect on one's hair? I would think not getting it done correctly would affect how well the hair does. Also, how long should people keep a weave in?
