It's Been Six Months! Equal Brazilian Bundle Wave Update

If you read my blogs regularly or subscribe to my YouTube channel, then you know a few months ago I decided to give the Equal Brazilian Bundle Wave hair a try. If you're not familiar with the hair, it is a synthetic fiber hair that is made to mimic the appearance of remy hair. The hair is heat resistant and can be curled with a curling iron/rod or flat iron. The hair comes with it's own wave pattern and can be straightened out. I realized last weekend that it had been six months since I made my first U-part wig (you can see the video on my U-part wig tutorial by going here: http://www.sheloveshair.blogspot.com/2015/02/how-to-make-u-part-wig.html ) using the Brazilian bundle wave hair and decided to put in on and review it. I must say this hair has help up well; especially for a synthetic hair. Granted, I do not wear this wig on a regular basis. I wore it a lot during the first 1-2 months. I'm sure that if a person gets the hair sewn in to their own hair it may not last as long due to daily wear and tear. Check out my video update on the hair after having it 6 months below :-)

How to do Senegalese Twists

Okay, so it's summer summer summertime...summertime! Lol. It's summertime and I didn't want to be bothered with trying to fight of the humidity,so I thought this would be a good time to try out some Senegalese twists. I like how they looked on me...they were far longer than I wanted them to be. I really wanted them mid back length, so if I get them again that's the length I will get. Many people are able to do their own hair and some may just want to learn how to do them on someone else's; therefore, I have provided you with video footage from me getting my done to guide you as a tutorial. Please excuse the first 29 seconds of the video. Something went wrong in rendering and the audio got out of sync. Not to worry; the part of the video where I actually start the demonstration works perfectly! Check it out below and let me know how your experience with Senegalese twists went.

Maybelline FIT Me Foundation Review

Omgoodness! I can't believe I forgot to post this review to my blog; what was I thinking?!! Ok, so I have never been a fan of liquid makeup on myself. I just didn't like the way it looked on me. I've had Mac and Fashion Fair, but I just was not feeling it. I had been using some Cover Girl creme to powder from the Queen Collection and I really liked how well the color blended. Still, I didn't feel like I was getting as great of coverage as I should. After seeing so many makeup tutorials on YouTube and they all seemed to be using this FIT Me Foundation, I decided to give it a try since I was running low on my current foundation. It was less than $6 at Walmart so I thought, "Why not?!" It was the best investment I've ever made in makeup....like ever! I absolutely loved it! It doesn't take much at all to give you a nice even, smooth look. A little bit really goes a long way with this makeup. I will say this, let it set before you make up your mind. When I first apply mine it can look a little too yellow, but after it's been on ten minutes or so it looks just fine. It is summer time and who has time for runny makeup. Another reason why I didn't typically like liquid makeup. Yes, I had primer underneath, but if you get too hot that makeup can still start to not look too hot. Well, for under $6 you can also get the FIT Me setting powder! Put a little of this on after your apply the foundation to set your makeup. It definitely makes a difference. I have posted a video below so you can see the steps I take when applying. This is not a tutorial, but just a review I did. Let me know what your favorite makeup is and if you've tried FIT Me, what do you/don't you like about it. Thanks for checking out my blog ;-)

Until next time....XO!
