Chocolate Brides: Hair Question

[MsSmithtobe]

So I wanna wear my hair like this or like this  the problem is I don't want to get a sew in weave, my hair is layered and past my shoulders, but if I was to curl it it wouldn't have the same effect.  Has anyone tried clip-ins?  Would they work?  I can't do sew in's because not being able to touch MY hair gives me anxiety lol. I know I'm a wierdo.  I need to add length and volume, I'm leaning towards clip-ins but do they have those for black hair?

I love the look......i'm interested on what people think and know about clip-ins

It's been awhile since I've made any post to this thread but my wedding is over and my split cap weave was a success....I got married in Mexico at Azul Sensatori hotel ....I took a chance and allowed them to do my hair and makeup and I was so glad I did, they did an AMAzzzZING job....I had to help the stylist out with straigtening my top a little but she did everything else and it was gorgeous...my photographer has really great shots of my hair and as soon as I get them I will post but for now this is all I have good luck and don't stress too much about the hair thing just make sure you have a good flat iron

Hey girls...I'm still working with my sew-in. Trying to get as used to it as I can so I can be prepared for Turks & Caicos...Anyway, here's a pic. I styled it myself..unbelievably..

I have worn my hair like this before.  I use long curly half wigs, and just pull it to the side into a ponytail!  It's really easy to accomplish this look, and you don't have to pay a bunch of money for a sew-in!  I have used Outre half wigs (the names of the wigs are Sabina or Rihanna).  I am going to do my hair like this again for the holiday, so I will post a pic up when I am done.  Can you imagine that for under $20 you can have your perfect wedding hairstyle!

Still looks good, Misti!

Big fan of the half wig. I wear one now by Freetress called vanilla girl. Still undecided if I'm going that route or a sew in but you make a good point. The money I save could go to the tons of other wedding stuff we have to spend on.

I'm getting married there on Sept 9, 2011. I was considering using their salon. Did you hear something differ about it?

I contacted Debra and hope that it can all work out with her. I am getting married at the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites in MoBay on June 23, 2011. Is anyone else getting married there? If so, has anyone considered their salon? Is anyone using the Salon at their resort?

 

Thanks again!
