Naomi Campbell

Celebrities don’t always get everything right, and when it comes to hair extensions, some have made a mess of their hair, either by choosing weird colors to add or simply by appearing in public with loose extensions for the world to see. Naomi Campbell and Britney Spears have both shown off their bald spots that appear underneath their faux hair recently, while other have had plaits or rainbow colored hair attached, or have gone slightly overboard with too many extensions to make for a less than pretty sight!

What Are the Best Hair Care Products for Extensions?

2012-01-31T19:11:00.000-06:00

Getting hair extensions is an investment. Although the longevity of your hair extensions also depends on the type of hair and installation method used, how you maintain the hair also plays a crucial role. If you nurture your hair extensions as if it was your own hair, expect to have those extensions looking good for a while. However, if you neglect the investment you have made, you can expect to be disappointed with your purchase.

Brushes/Combs

Because gentle care is required, you should choose quality combs and brushes to untangle and smooth the hair. Combs should be wide-spaced. Before washing your hair, brush it with a soft-bristle brush to prevent further tangles. When brushing, always start at the ends, then work upward toward the extension weft. Never yank at your hair extensions, as this can extract them and damage your own hair.

Shampoos/Conditioners

Always use a gentle shampoo to cleanse your hair extensions. The stylist who installed your hair extensions can also give you recommendations on the proper shampoo to use. As for conditioners, opt for one that is moisturizing. Deep condition your hair extensions at least every two to three days to give them optimum moisture. Ask your stylist to recommend the best conditioner. Use a light hair extensions moisturizer every two to three days so the extensions do not dry out and form ratty, split ends.

Styling Products

Hair extensions can be a costly investment; therefore, you must choose the right styling products that will not damage them. Before applying any heat, always apply a thermal protectant to shield the hair. Ceramic or ionic styling tools are better choices for hair extensions. They are designed to control heat more effectively. The less heat used on the hair, the better. Avoid using chemicals on the hair; instead take the hair extensions to a professional who can process them appropriately.

Meet Celebrity Stylist Hadiiya Barbel

2012-01-24T12:11:00.000-06:00

Hadiiya Barbel's hairstyling and expertly crafted wigs have been seen on Mya, Iman, Pepa, Ciara, Star Jones, Keri Hilson, Ashanti, Taraji Henson, Angela Bassett, and many more fashionable celebrities. She is a self-made woman of enigmatic personality, who has earned and cultivated a prestigious reputation among some of Hollywood's elite as the stylist to see. Barbel is a true rebel at heart, and her creative beginnings and deep-seated personal belief of seeing beauty in all forms allows a greater understanding that her love for what she does goes much deeper than just hair, and how it transformed this vivacious mother of three outlooks on life.

In her formative years, Barbel, a Bronx New York native, sought to achieve a career in fashion as a designer. Dutifully creative, her visions often included the full profile of her subjects, and the attraction to the detail of hairstyling gracefully began to engulf her approach to fashion design. Recognizing a burgeoning talent, her teachers and advisors at High School of Fashion Industries (HSFI) provided the young student with her first major challenge; to create all of the hairstyles for the various school shows. She embraced the opportunity to showcase her newly discovered talent, and this early taste of success convinced Barbel that her imaginative flair was best used to pursue a career in the hair industry.

She went to work at a Time Salon in Brooklyn, under the tutelage of her mentor Heather OKeefe. Barbel trained and learned O’Keefe’s high standards, and in return OKeefe provided the early foundation for Barbel to achieve a goal in her long-range vision, one which has come true to have a premier salon destination called The Glamour Suite, located in the Soho District of New York City.

A Hadiiya Barbel hairstyle is influenced by wild, soulful and hip styles of the 60s and 70s, but these iconic looks take on a completely future-forward flair with her no-holds-barred, radically different approach to cutting and styling.

A Hadiiya Barbel style is unmistakably her own, and for all the work that goes into it, she describes it as effortless beauty, where the styles are done, yet undone, she says. These styles are epitome of cool, as evidenced by her specialty in creating shapes, these are individualized visions for her clientele that are created to perfectly flatter their features, their lifestyles, their way of being. A style by Hadiiya Barbel is guaranteed to turn heads.

How she spends the private hours of her life are equally as important to her and provide the balance for her to create and maintain her personal brand. Barbel is an avid fitness buff who is an extremely health conscious person. She works out, rides her beloved bicycles and nurtures a happy home for her three children. Barbel believes that being fit, healthy and treasuring her family’s happiness is the key to her ongoing success.

Know When It Is Time To Take Your Weave Out

2012-01-24T11:51:00.000-06:00

I would like to address the 5 most important signs that it is time to take your weave out. As a woman who wears weaves I suggest leaving it in no longer than 2 months, however, everyone is different. So with that being said let me get started!

1. Is That A Wig Or Weave?

When you scratch your scalp, and the weave moves, like there is a wig on your head. This means the braids under the weave have completely grown out which is great because who doesn’t want their hair to grow…Right? With that being said though the new growth needs to be washed deep conditioned and combed. So if the weave is moving around its time ladies to take it down.

2. Your Weave Stinks!

The weave smells, you can smell it and so can those around you. This is especially true for those wearing a curly or wet weave. When wearing a weave shampooing your own hair is limited because after all it’s braided. After 1-2 months the hair will begin to have an odor.

3. Hey Girl, You Lost About 2 Ounces Of Hair While Brushing That Tired Weave This Morning.

Severe shedding is a sure sign it’s time to say good-bye to your weave. Not the shedding of your own hair that is braided but the weave hair off the track. This goes for the hair that is not the “Indian human hair” but, because all the hair nowadays says 100% human hair chances are if the pack says that, it isn’t true and that the hair I’m talking about. Now I’m not knocking that type of hair because if it all you can afford… but keep in mind it does not have a life span and once used cannot be reused. So if you’re Milky Way, Capelli, Bobby Boss, Dena Cali etc, is shedding its time to take the weave down. If you invest in Jazzy Girls Luxury Hair Collection, our hair is 100% Natural Virgin hair; it does not shed and can be reused up to 1 yr.!

4. If I Was Your Stylist I Would Charge You An Additional Fee.

I say this because it has become a project to style this kind of hair. I have seen women from time to time that just can’t say goodbye to the weave and to create a miracle out of mayonnaise to get the weave to look like it did 2 months ago with their new growth hanging out all over the place. Is this fair to you or your stylist? No, take it out now!

5. No One Not Even You Remembers When You Got Your Weave Put In.

When your hairstylist asks, “Girl when I put this weave in your hair?” If your own stylist can’t remember chances are she’s hinting that your weave has lived its life and nature has taken its new growth course. It’s time to take it down get a much needed shampoo, deep conditioning and trim.

So ladies you if you have any of these five signs TAKE OUT YOUR WEAVE!!!

SCALP SUPPORT

2012-01-23T14:53:00.000-06:00

While caring for extensions is important, you should not forget about the foundation under the weave!

Treating your scalp before you get extensions is th emost important thing. We reccomend a hot oil treatment ad cholesterol treatment to make the foundation nice and soft. You have to start with a healthy foundation before you do anything to your hair.
When you shampoo the hair once every two weeks you want to get in between the tracks and scrub your scalp very well. Just make sure to rinse the hair completely and sit under the dryer until your whole head is completely dry. If you leave the hair wet, it can develop a sour smell.
If your prone to a dry itchy scalp, try doing a scalp relief treatment every time you shampoo. There are liquid spays you can apply to the scalp in a few places. But don't use too much or your hair will become too oily.

2012-01-21T12:47:00.000-06:00

Long before she graced the faces of many of your favorite entertainers, Atlanta native, Latasha Wright paid her dues managing some of the top department store brands such as MAC and Bloomingdales. Honing her skills and giving clients cutting- edge, individualized makeovers allowed her to coin her signature “Wright Look.” Latasha then decided to build upon her brand, one that has ultimately become a familiarity within the entertainment industry.

As a young girl, Latasha began experimenting with color and makeup on her mother, an incredible beauty who undoubtedly served as her muse. Motivated by her mother, an evangelist, and father, a physician, Latasha pursued an education in business administration. However, feeling unfulfilled, Wright began to abandon her inner passion for art, makeup and hair. After realizing her hearts true desires and with encouragement and inspiration from her parents, Wright soon put aside her business education to pursue her ultimate dream, exploring the power of make up.

A makeup consultant to numerous national print outlets, her professional credits and cover work include magazines such as; Allure, Essence, Ebony and a host of other national publications. The peripatetic Wright also has television network credits, working for, Bravo, Turner Broadcasting Systems, FOX and BET. A household name in face glamour, she is frequently commissioned by legions of entertainers and private clients, who host special events such as weddings, listening parties, and fundraisers.

A licensed esthetician, Wright attended the International School of Skin Care in Atlanta, Georgia. In 2009, she joined Taylor- Ector Studios, a full-service boutique offering photography, wardrobe, makeup, and hair styling. Wright enthuses, “I am inspired to teach women that makeup is an accessory, just like your purse and shoes. When women say, “I don’t wear makeup,” oftentimes they just don’t know how. Once they have been taught the “Wright” way, they will have the “Wright” look every day.”

THE DO'S AND DON'T OF WEARING HAIR EXTENSIONS

2012-01-09T16:29:00.000-06:00

As everyone pretty much knows, a lot of women love wearing hair extensions. It can be easy to manage and it also is very helpful to your real hair because depending on what type of hairstyle you're wearing, you can go weeks and months without putting heat on your actual hair and that can help give your hair much needed rest. The downsize of wearing extensions is that if you do not take proper care of your extensions and real hair you can risk damaging your hair and having hair loss. These are some do's and don’ts of wearing hair extensions.

Do's & Don'ts of Extensions

Treat your hair well

Just like with your real hair, your hair extensions will last a long time if you treat them well. Comb and brush them gently, apply and remove them carefully, and use products to enhance e.g. hair spray, conditioners, etc. Some hair extensions can be quite expensive, so get your money’s worth by using them for as long as possible.

Choose wisely

Just because hair extensions are fake, it doesn’t mean they should look that way. Bold rainbow colors are not the way to go unless you’re going to a party. If you can, try on the extensions before purchase. Consider how well they mesh with your skin tone, height, body weight, and lifestyle. Don’t assume that the fabulous wig on the mannequin will look fabulous on you too.

Express yourself

Remember to show your personality when you wear hair extensions. Go for the extensions that reflect a part of you and/or your lifestyle. When you bring home your new extensions, style them in a unique way. This reduces the chance of you bumping into someone wearing the same hair.

DON’T

Neglect your real hair

Dressing up your hair extensions is like playing with dolls again, but, unlike Barbie, you have real hair underneath it. When you’re wearing various extensions, and applying and removing them, don’t be rough. Respecting your extensions and disrespecting your real hair will lead to baldness.

Pretend it is real

There is no shame is wearing hair extensions, but there is when you pretend that your genes produced the amazing creation on your head. Be honest. You will fool some, but not all, so there’s no point in lying. If someone asks, be upfront, and- assuming they’re good- don’t forget to recommend the hair company and shop who produced your new investment.

Let the extensions overstay their welcome

Eventually your hair extensions will be worn out. All the washing, drying, and styling will take it’s toll, leaving your hair extensions a shadow of their former selves. Don’t be the embarrassment of the town. Throw your extensions out! If you can’t afford to buy a replacement yet, wear your natural or chemically processed hair until you have saved up enough money. Yes, you will have to spend more time doing your real hair than you did with your extensions, but you will look better for it.

Glue to your scalp

Hopefully this sounds obvious to you, but I have seen it done before. This method of applying hair extensions will lead to hair loss, because the glue will take off your hair with it, and skin irritation is a possibility.

Judge others

Some women are determined to see celebrities without their hair extensions, yet these same women have hair extensions on their heads all year round. Why should Beyonce remove her lacefront when you haven’t removed yours? Focus on yourself and your head. If you interfere in others’ business, expect the same nosiness in return.

How to Take Care of Hair Extensions

2012-01-02T14:02:00.001-06:00

To Get Hair Like JLO Try Our Jazzy Girls Luxury Elite Colletion

So you've either decided to get those extensions or you're intrigued enough about them to learn more. Well, you have come to the right place. Whether synthetic or real, all hair extensions need to be cared for properly to extend the life of them. For what people pay to lengthen their locks, keeping them around for as long as possible is very much desirable. Our goal is to help you get the most bang, or bangs, for your buck.

Let's start with the basics-shampooing. Be sure to use a rather gentle shampoo and conditioner and don't skimp on the quality. Don't ruin your hair and/or extensions by trying to save a couple of dollars on the super cheap stuff. I have read in a couple of places that some of the really high priced shampoos may actually speed up the rate at which the bonder is broken down. If you do start to have extensions falling out far before their "expiration date", take a look at your shampoo and give your stylist a call. It may be as simple to fix as using a non-conditioning shampoo or simply a different brand. Now, if your extensions are sewn in, you do not need to be as concerned about this type of reaction occurring. After your shower, feel free to dry your hair the same way you would have dried your own natural hair. I would highly recommend an ionic dryer, I personally love mine and have had many people say that they won't dry their hair with anything else.

As far as coloring your hair and extensions, plan ahead. Color your natural hair the desired color before your extensions are applied. Your stylist will then color match your extensions, whether synthetic or real, to your new color to make your purchased hair look like the real thing. Highlights can even be added by adding different colored extensions in the same randomness as highlights applied to hair pulled through a cap. If your roots need a touchup before you need to change your extensions, play it safe and leave the coloring to your stylist.

When it comes to styling your hair it totally depends on the type of lengthener you have. If you have real hair, most of your styling tools can still be used in the same fashion. However, with some types of synthetic hair extensions, more care needs to be taken. As with everything else, talk to your stylist. He or she will be able to tell you all of the styling rules specific to your type of extension. Also, feel free to put your hair in ponytails, braids, buns and barrettes as you would have normally.

With summer coming you will not want to miss out in dips in the pool or ocean because of your new hair. Be sure to always wear a swim cap made of latex. Carefully comb out any tangles that may be present starting from the bottom and working your way up. Once the hair has been detangled braid the hair in two braids to ensure that all of the hair is protected and tucked neatly under the cap. Following your dip, be sure to wash your hair immediately to remove any damaging chemical that may have snuck under your cap. Use your creativity and make your cap your own. Add some sparkle or bling so your swim cap shows your personality.

Now, when it is time to remove the hair extensions you can do it in a couple of different ways. The quickest way would be to cut them out, however, that would leave with quite a short do. A more preferable method, most likely, would be to let your stylist take them out. If you have synthetic locks, the area that is bonded will be heated up slightly which will loosen the glue's hold on the hair. With natural extensions a special solvent is applied to the connection which helps to release the bond. From there the ball is in your court. If everything was done properly and your natural hair and scalp is still in good condition, you may choose to have new extensions added on the same day. If there is damage to either, it would be advisable to fix the problem before adding more hair.

I hate to sound like a broken record, or should I say a skipping CD, but talk to your stylist a lot and often to ensure a good experience with your journey into Rapunzelville. There are many things that could go wrong so do your homework and find a stylist that you know is experienced and one that you trust. I would also strongly suggest asking for references, see if you can speak to clients who have had hair extensions applied and ask to see pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words. If you look at an "after" picture and like the "before" look better-move on to another salon. Remember you are paying the salon so make them work for you!

CELEBRITY STYLIST AMOY PITTERS

2012-01-02T13:53:00.001-06:00

A New York beauty industry veteran with over sixteen years of experience, Amoy has a passion – and natural talent – for the worlds of hair, beauty and fashion since the start of her career. Following her enrollment in beauty school immediately upon high school graduation, Amoy launched her impressive career as a sought-after hair stylist in the fashion industry, Amoy booked her career-first fashion show in Paris, styling the locks of the runway models for the Christian Dior couture collection in January 1998. There, recognizing her unparalleled skill level, Amoy was asked by the show’s production team to style the house’s legendary designer John Galliano’s own hair for his final bow. Soon after, Galliano himself began requesting Amoy as his personal hairstylist. Fashion maven Donatella Versace was next in line, after taking notice of Galliano’s newly styled locks.

From there, mentored by industry icon, Odile Gilbert – and later featured in the famed work Her Style – Amoy was in-demand worldwide, styling hair for editorials and fashion shows, and transforming the looks of supermodels, Hollywood starlets, iconic fashion designers, Grammy award-wining musicians and, of course, her everyday clients who occupied the chairs Amoy rented in various salons before opening a salon of her very own for the first time in New York City’s East Village. Now, Amoy is set to open the doors of her second beauty outpost, located in the Upper East Side of Manhattan— Amoy Couture Hair. Additionally, Amoy has produced an exclusive collection of Amoy Couture Hair products, featuring a range of hair goodies— from shampoos to conditioners, hydrating silicone serums to leave-in conditioners and curly balms.

Setting herself apart from others in the industry is Amoy’s hands-on method to developing her techniques— unlike many stylists, Amoy practices her styling techniques on herself before applying them on clients. Following such an approach allows Amoy to develop and discover new cuts, shapes and colors, ensuring that her style and vision are always evolving.

Amoy’s long list of celebrity clientele includes the likes of Naomi Campbell, Iman, Sheryl Crow, Joy Bryant, Maggie Rizer, Selita Ebanks, Rihanna, The Pussycat Dolls, Jessica White and Mary J. Blige, to name a few.

CELEBRITY STYLIST KIMBERLY KIMBLE

2011-12-07T14:19:00.000-06:00

SPECIALTY: As the mane woman to Beyoncé—who changes her hair almost as often as she changes her clothes—Los Angeles–based hairstylist Kimble creates spotlight-stealing coifs: “Gorgeous hair is all about shine, texture, and lots of body.”

SECRET WEAPON: When clients such as Mary J. Blige need to ensure that not a strand is out of place, Kimble tames flyways with a dab of the wax stick from her own line. “On the red carpet, even one sticking out hair can be noticeable. This keeps the look polished.”

QUICK FIX: Whether they opt for elegant updos or straight, sleek styles, Kimble’s clients get by with a little help from clip-in hair extensions: “They add instant body to hair and require very little prep time.”

MAKING EXTENSIONS SHINE

2011-12-07T14:04:00.000-06:00

While synthetic hair extensions can be too shiny and look unnatural, real human hair extensions can look too dull and unnatural. Luckily thought, real-hair extensions can look shiny with just a few products. Because real human hair is no longer "living" hair, it can lose the luster it once had. To get that back the first thing that you need is a clarifying shampoo and conditioner. Various clarifying hair products are available at great prices. The clarifying shampoos and conditioners help to remove product buildup (if you use too much mousse or gel, your hair will look dull) and add shine to your hair. Using a light serum is also good to increase the shine in your hair. Hair serum protects the hair from harsh pollutants as well as adding a lot of shine. Although a great product, never apply too much (a dime-sized drop is all you need), it can make your hair look greasy and dirty. You can also get a hair gloss. A hair gloss is almost like dyeing your hair "clear." It adds shine, adjusts the tone of your color, it's permanent but it's not a color. There is also hair glaze that is similar but is a semi-permanent color and shine. Both hair gloss and glaze need to be done by a PROFESSIONAL stylist.

CELEBRITY STYLIST TIPPI SHORTER

2011-11-09T20:09:00.000-06:00

Who do celebrities like Alicia Keys, Rihanna, and Jennifer Hudson continuously look to when their tresses need taming? These divas call on their indispensible hairstylist, Tippi Shorter.

Tippi prides herself on her signature big sexy HEALTHY hair. She not only makes great efforts to use "green" hair products, the newest tools and styling options; Tippi gives her clients personalized hair analysis. "It's not always about using the newest products," she says, "It's about using the best products for that particular client's hair." It is one thing to have a great hairstylist. It is an even greater thing to have a hairstylist who can give you both healthy hair and a great style. That is what has made Tippi Shorter a leading hairstylist and colorist in the entertainment and beauty industries for the past 15 years.

Since her introduction into the beauty industry, Tippi's hairstyles have topped the shoulders of many beauty icons: Diahann Carol, Beyonce, Jada Pinkett-Smith and Vanessa Williams among other actresses, musicians, and supermodels. But when asked about her career as a well known celebrity hairstylist, Tippi responds, "I am not a celebrity hairstylist. I am a hairstylist who happens to have the opportunity to work with many wonderful celebrities." This fantastic hairstylist is way too modest. Her beauty transformations have graced the covers and editorial pages of trendsetting magazines like Elle, Essence, In Style, and Vanity Fair. Her beauty tips are often quoted in weekly magazines like Life & Style and OK!

Tippi found her calling for hairstyling in her hometown, Long Beach, California. But Tippi had dreams of bringing her skills and the Hollywood Glamour she knew so well to the urban metropolis. In 1995 she headed to New York City with the intent of getting people hooked on her signature big sexy healthy hair. Tippi's road to success began when, within a year of being in New York City, she was asked to participate in a beauty feature for Essence magazine.

While in New York, Tippi also opened up Luxe Studio in the city's downtown Soho district. For four years her salon was successfully known as the go-to place for unique cuts and striking hair color. But due to high demand for her work to be featured in photo shoots, music videos, and commercials, she sold Luxe in 2005. Since, Tippi has worked with renowned photographers Patrick Demarchelier, Gil Bensimon and Christian Lantry, and her effortless looks have illuminated ads for Cover Girl, Rimmel, Pantene, and Gap. She has also been a spokesperson for both Pantene and Clairol.

In addition to fulfilling her role as a renowned hairstylist, Tippi is currently actively working on her own hair extension line GET GORGEOUS HAIR. She has also played the role of beauty correspondent on webisodes, through which she has become the go-to person for everything related to beauty in the entertainment industry. It is no doubt that Tippi will not only continue providing women with healthy, stylish hair; this diva stylist will remain an important presence in the beauty and entertainment industries.

The sheer quality of this hair makes it the finest human hair on the market.

2011-10-20T21:00:00.000-05:00

Brushes/Combs

Because gentle care is required, you should choose quality combs and brushes to untangle and smooth the hair. Combs should be wide-spaced. Before washing your hair, brush it with a soft-bristle brush to prevent further tangles. When brushing, always start at the ends, then work upward toward the extension weft. Never yank at your hair extensions, as this can extract them and damage your own hair.

Shampoos/Conditioners

Always use a gentle shampoo to cleanse your hair extensions.The stylist who installed your hair extensions can also give you recommendations on the proper shampoo to use. As for conditioners, opt for one that is moisturizing. Deep condition your hair extensions at least every two to three days to give them optimum moisture. Ask your stylist to recommend the best conditioner. Use a light hair extensions moisturizer every two to three days so the extensions do not dry out and form ratty, split ends.

Styling Products

Hair extensions can be a costly investment, therefore, you must choose the right styling products that will not damage them. Before applying any heat, always apply a thermal protectant to shield the hair. Ceramic or ionic styling tools are better choices for hair extensions. They are designed to control heat more effectively. The less heat used on the hair, the better. Avoid using chemicals on the hair; instead take the hair extensions to a professional who can process them appropriately.

Celebrity Endorsed Wig Lines vs. Owners: Which Would You Buy?

2011-10-17T21:01:00.001-05:00

If it’s one thing a Black woman doesn’t play about, it’s her hair. It’s no huge secret that we have become the go-to in all things hair, including wigs, weaves and extensions. What was once a taboo subject is now explained in great detail at dinner parties, clubs and gatherings alike.
Wigs and hairpieces have become a status symbol. If we’re honest, we have all dreamed of having our favorite celebrities’ down-to-there locks.
Even more interesting, the celebrity faces that now accompany those coveted bags of human goodness. Stars like Brandy and Vivica Fox have endorsed wig, weave and extension lines. Even before it was popular, legends such as Diahann Carroll and Beverly Johnson did the same. More recently, Lisa Raye debuted her new weave line at the Bronner Brothers Hair Show in Atlanta to much acclaim.
But what about the companies that don’t have the luxury of boasting a celebrity face or name? Take Constance Petty for example. In just a little over a year, she has grown Bella Dream Hair extensively with her elite celebrity clientele, over 10,000 followers on Twitter and most importantly, quality hair and wigs in an array of textures and colors. A black-owned company selling affordable hair? We’ll gladly invest.
But back to the subject at hand.
If my guess is correct, ordinary people don’t want to be pushed by celebrities to buy a product they have probably never used. Instead, they want to actually know if the product is effective and if the brand compliments them.
Are companies wasting their money paying celebrities to be the face of their products? As a consumer who are you most influenced by?

BBW TAMI ROMAN'S HAIR DRAMA

2011-10-17T20:50:00.000-05:00

Ok, Tami Roman has recently found herself in some more drama outside of the REALITY TV CAMERAS.. This time the drama is in TWITTERVILLE and its related to her hair line. See the word on the street from “Addicted to all things Pretty” blog, Tami is pushing her own hair line and claiming that the hair in the picture to the left as hair from her line.. Well check out the blog posting from ”Addicted to all things Pretty“.

SOURCE
I’ve still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that Tami Roman sells hair extensions since her styles get a lot of not-so-nice attention when Basketball Wives airs. Nonetheless, her entrepreneurial skills have kicked in and this week she launched Crème de -la Crème Hair. Once Tami started telling followers on Twitter that she was wearing her from her hair collection the situation got ugly. Apparently, Tami requested hair fromBella Dream Hair to be sent to her via express delivery late September and never disclosed that she has her own hair company, as this would be a conflict of interest and be unethical. Once the issue was addressed on Twitter and it was said that she wasn’t wearing the hair she said she was, she decided to delete most of her tweets where she said she was and started playing the role of the victim but never addressed @BellaDreamHair or spoke directly about the situation.
We all know Tami isn’t the type to back down and likes to “keep it real”.

But I needed more proof than he said she said; detailed tracking information and pictures of the hair that was sent to Tami appeared in my in-box….
You be the judge.
But here are my questions; why were the tweets deleted? Why did she need hair from a competitor and urgently at that? Did her hair stylist make the error of installing the wrong hair or is Tami trying to pull a fast one?

JAZZY GIRLS LUXURY HAIR COLLECTION VOTED #1 BY ALLURE MAGAZINE AS THE BEST LUXURY HAIR 877.745.2999

2011-10-14T18:15:00.000-05:00

Hair extensions are quite popular with all kinds of women, from African American to Caucasian to Latina. Anyone can wear hair that doesn't grow on their heads! Fake hair is fun to experiment with if you want a new look or instantly long locks. Weaves can be made from either synthetic or human hair, but both types require washing and upkeep.
Whether your extensions are synthetic or human hair, caring for a weave properly is very important to maintain the quality of the hair.

Synthetic Hair
Synthetic hair is a weave that hasn't grown out of someone's scalp. It's much cheaper than real hair, but it has limitations. Synthetic hair usually doesn't look or feel as real as human hair. You cannot style synthetic hair with heat the same way you can with human hair. Some high quality synthetic hair can handle some heat-styling tools, but not often.
You can wash your synthetic hair just like you can with real hair, however. Carefully massage the shampoo into your scalp, being careful not to pull out the hair from its tracks. Wash out the shampoo and then add conditioner to your hair. Rinse it out after a few minutes, and let your hair air-dry.

Jazzy Girls Luxury Hair Collection 100% Natural Virgin Hair

Human Hair
Human hair is usually imported from Asian countries, where women grow their hair extra long and then sell it. The hair, once applied, can be heat-styled just like your own natural hair. You can wash it, condition it, dye it, blow dry it, curl it, and flat iron it! There are no limitations. These extensions tend to cost much more than synthetic hair, but they also last longer.

HOW TO DO THE WEFT TEST

2011-10-13T17:14:00.000-05:00

For the best results, try this quick quality check. Brush the hair; if strands fall off the weft(the seam at the top strip of hair), the quality is poor. This can happen with inexpensive hair. But if that is all you can afford, try sealing the top of the weft with a hair glue or using clear nail polish to secure the track. Either one will minimize the shedding. But to eliminate all of that invest in good quality hair it is re-usable and will lat longer.
