How To Tame Those Wavy Waves


Ladies ladies Ladies,
Okay summer is coming and how many of us love wet and wavy hair. BUT we cannot stand it when the what’s supposed to be luscious waves turns into a frizz disaster. Fret no further! Check out the following tips below on how to maintain those beautiful waves.
Your biggest mistake is using products that are not made for curly textures. If you want soft curls
– I recommend Soft Sheen Carson curl activator/moisturizer (yellow and red bottle),
Pantene Pro V Frizz Controller and Tresemme Long lasting Curl spray
- Use products made for curly hair
- If you want soft curls don’t use gel, spritz, or
mousse (avoid products with alcohol)
- Try to keep the hair hydrated
- Use cold water in your spray bottle as opposed
to warm water ( I learned that cold water decreases the amount of frizz on the Tyra show!)
- Some days you do not have to put water on it =
just apply a curl activator
- When wet scrunch the hair= don’t brush, don’t comb
SCRUNCH from the bottom up
If you are going to brush – brush ONLY when dry- This will make hair fuller.
Want a very voluminous look? Then try blow drying with a diffuser.
- Use a minimum amount of product or the hair will start to weigh down and you will get greasy!
- If your human hair weave is loosing its curl straighten it out if
then try to curl it again or try setting it on rods, flexi rods, or straw curls
for a different pattern.
- Remember curls are meant to be fun, so have fun

Do Lace Wig Makers Receive Too Little Credit?

I have been collecting hair magazines and researching the hair industry for quite awhile and I feel that us lace wig makers or wig makers in general often go unnoticed.

For example, I often glimpse at pages with beautiful styles where celebrities or average people are wearing lace wigs or a wig and the only people noticed are: the photographers, the person in the photo, and the hair stylist that applied the wig. What about the wig maker? The person that ultimately created that piece or the person that spent tedious hours designing the piece. Don't they deserve to get some credit too? I mean if it weren't for the wig designer then there simply wouldn't be a style to show off.

Lace wigs are not new to the industry necessarily. They are just now trendy and more available to regular people. For this reason my question arises: When are the lace wig makers going to get credit? Lace wigs have literally revamped the hair industry. Hair styling is no longer the same. It has changed for the better; we now have the opportunity to wear long realistic locks. However, it bothers me that the true people behind the scenes aren't getting the credit and publicity that they deserve. Without lace wig makers there wouldn't be lace wigs. Yes, I know there are machines, but most people opt to have their wigs hand made because they simply last longer.

Additionally, shouldn't we receive some type of acknowledgment? For example, in most beauty stores licensed hair stylist receive a discount with proof that they are licensed. Why doesn't this apply to wig maker? We have to buy the hair to create the wigs for our clients as well. Too add to this, several hair shows only admit licensed stylist. That list does not include a wig maker if you are not a licensed stylist. I feel we deserve a similar privilege. No, I didn't go to hair school and will NEVER impose to be a hair dresser, but I am a wig designer that requires great skill and would love to enhance my skills, by attending these events.

I feel that we are equally as important and we should get more credit. We should appear in the hair magazines too. We should receive discounts, support, and be able to attend all hair shows. The hair industry has changed for the better, so now its time to make some changes for making all stylist feel somewhat equal.

Happy Wig Rocking,
