Virgin Hair from AliExpress

From time to time, I like to get a full sew-in weave as a protective style to help my hair grow. Before I knew about virgin hair, I would purchase Goddess Remy hair, which would last 1-2 months with proper care. But when I heard of virgin hair such as Indian and Brazilian that could last up to 6 months, I decided to give it a try.

Over the past 2+ years I have tried a few different hair companies. Most of the hair I purchased lasted for about 2-3 months. When the hair starting to become tangled, I would try different techniques to bring it back to life like deep conditioning, the boil method, and trimming the hair, but after a while I would just throw it in the trash.

Ms.Lula Brazilian Virgin Body Wave

I heard through the grapevine that a lot of hair companies purchase their hair wholesale off of Aliexpress, so last month when I had leisure time, I would search on YouTube for the best virgin hair companies. Again and again, I would see hair by Ms. Lula come up as the best. When I checked out the prices and saw how low they were, I took a deep breath and made the purchase. At the time for 3 bundles (an 18 inch, 20 inch, 22 inch) and a free part lace closure, it was only…..$207 plus free shipping.

I literally got my hair in 3 days and I was excited!! The hair came in a pretty package along with hair care instructions on a postcard. I checked for any signs of lice before opening the package; coast clear. And to my surprise the hair was so very soft and there was no weird smell.

Bleaching the lace closure

When I washed the hair I used Oil of Morocco sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner by Marc Anthony. When I washed the hair it wasn’t dirty at all. When I was finished the process, I let the hair air dry. I also bleached the net on the lace closure because it helps give it a natural scalp look.

My hair was installed and curled by hair stylist Asia Bey (@abeybeyhair12 on Instagram) and I absolutely loved it. All I had to do was put on a bonnet at night and shake and go in the morning. My hair is only 2 weeks old and so far so good. I’ll give y’all an update in a few months to let y’all know how it’s going.
