I'm Wearing the Silky Touch Irresistible Me Hair Extensions!

Hey bloggers,

Here is the post that you have all been waiting for. 

"Drum roll please!"

This was my first time wearing hair extensions. To begin with, I washed and conditioned the hair extensions and I straightened my transition hair which was very difficult as I have a lot of natural hair growth and it was very difficult to get my hair straight as it reverted back to its natural state. In the picture below you will clearly see major difference of my hair textures as my ends tend to be straighter.

I would be intrigued to try these hair extensions again with my hair permed straight as I believe it would it would blend perfectly.

These hair extensions were so easy to apply. They were also silky soft and really transformed my look. I looked as though I was going out somewhere fancy just by applying these extensions.

I decided to do a half up and half down hairstyle because my hair would not lay flat once it reverted back. It is impossible for my hair to get straight without perming it. However considering the texture difference-I still think I did well with trying to blend the hair extensions.

I had fun clipping these clip-ins onto my hair. For the first few seconds it felt heavy but afterwards I did not feel the clips on my hair.

View the pictures below of my mini photoshoot. I took so many selfies as I loved how the silky touch hair extensions looked on me.

I am so addicted to taking pictures on snapchat. View the pictures below:

What do you think of my hairstyle with clip in extensions?

I hope you enjoyed reading this post.

Hair Challenge- Grow Back Edges.

Hi everyone,

  This post is a little different to the posts that I usually do. In my posts I usually try to focus on perfection, such as make-up pictures or fashion pictures. I am always focusing on looking my best on my blog.

However this post is showing the thinning of my hair. It has took me a lot of courage to post this as I have been ignoring the problem for years. I do think my hair looks rather thicker on camera but in person, I do have really thin edges.

A lot of black women suffer with this problem. Mainly those that do not keep their hair natural but damage it by bleaching, perming or dying their hair.

However, I started a Edges hair challenge in February 2014. I would religiously oil my edges day and night with 'Profective Mega Growth n Healing Anti-Thinning Stimulant'. I was not expecting a drastic change but I was hoping it would help the hair to grow in the bald spots.

I was not going to do a post about my challenge but I thought it would be a good idea to share with you all the results. It is now the 18th of May 2014. If you scroll down, you will see the before and after photos of my edges and you can tell me what you think of the results.

Now

It is still quite thin at the front but not as thin as before.

Now (The Left Side)

A lot of hairs have grown back since using this product but my edges are still thin. I am slowly getting my hair line back.

On this side, a lot of hair has grown back but I still have a long way to go. I will continue to keep moisturising my edges and hope they will eventually get thicker.

Do you have problems with your edges too?

What do you use on your edges?

Do you have any tips for me that can help my edges to grow?

Thank you for reading :)
