For the past five years, I have not had straight weave on my head. My hair style has varied from braids to my permed hair to braids to my permed hair to braids — you get the picture. In my defense, it’s been different types of braids: regular braids, regular twists, and kinky twists. Hey, that’s three different types! But thanks to someone, I decided to try straight weave again (after that first and only time I did it for someone’s wedding).
Two packs of 14 inch Premium Now 100% human hair later, I am one hot stunning goddess – if I do say so myself. I wore the hair to a wedding, and well, let’s just say that men and women alike were gawking – partly because they had never seen me in long hair, but mostly because I just looked too hot. *Insert cough* Actually, make that *Insert uncontrollable sneeze*
So, all was well and good at the wedding, but after the wedding, the question became: what on earth to do with 14 inches of hair?! [My own hair is about 7 to 8 inches long]. I tried to wrap it before going to bed as I do with my own hair, but 14 inches is not a joke. I was startled when I read the pack of hair, and it said “Tangle free,” but of course, it’s tangle free! It’s human hair, isn’t it? Apparently, some other brands of hair – although also “100% human” – are not tangle free. The previous owners must have not used anti-tangle shampoo as babies.
Speaking of the previous owners, after watching an episode of Hunted on ID Channel the other day where a woman bought a home and was hunted by residual demons because the previous owners were devil worshipers, let’s just say I’ve been suspicious of my human hair. Who the heck owns this hair?? And which God did they serve? What nationality is the owner? Age? Favorite color? Favorite food? Marital status? Criminal report? Kids? Reason for selling hair? Ehm… favorite quote in the bible???
Naturally, my questions have gone unanswered. Until I become pen pals with the original owner of my 14 inches of glory, I have been thinking of ways to preserve it keep the thing out of my way while maintaining its beauty.

| You’ve never seen the center of my head like this before |
 |
| Can you see the track in front? |
 |
| This was not an easy job, I tell you. |
 |
| …And this was the result |
 |
| I still don’t know if it was worth it. |
Not bad, but was it worth the stress? The following Sunday, I used a curling iron. The hair looked almost completely flat by the time I got to church – no thanks to the humidity. My hair is now in four twisted braids. How’s that for convenience, curls, style, and maintenance!
Of course, this still doesn’t answer my question: how human is human who owns this hair I’m wearing?
P.S. By the way, have you noticed my wish list? *batting eye lashes*
At the rate you are going, we are going to see ALL of you by the end of the year. Both eyes, now scalp?
There goes another Indian at the temple…
Lol @ tangle free. Doesn't all hair tangle? That makes me question the 'humanity' of this human hair. Hmmm.
But I feel you. I don't use extensions in my hair, so when I did the pick and drop thing earlier this year, I had no idea what to do with it at night.
Lol @ Anonymous. I'm just as curious to know who Vera is. Well just pray no spirits followed the hair to ur head.
Nne dat ur list lol…well they say dreams can cme true. Meanwhyl I hve dt Steve Madden bag in the greenish/bluish/turquoise color. My favorite bag so far…luv it!
ive never had any type of weave on my hair so i cant help you.
@ Anonymous-I cosign maybe we will get to see Vera's face soon!
Who owns the hair? An Indian.
Buy a hairnet and put it all inside. Shikena. BTW, I think I can recognize you now. hhehe..
lmaoooooo…too funny! best to just wear the hair and not ask too many questions! i love the curls by the way…hot rollers are definately the best way to go š
As for the spirituality conected to all them indian hair and co, i believe oh. we just have to be prayerful
lol… no comment walahi.
lol at *batting eyes lashes*… you know I saw you at church and Kardashian got nothing on you girl, at all… only thing that remains is which pumps will match the fierceness
"Apparently, some other brands of hair – although also "100% human" – are not tangle free. The previous owners must have not used anti-tangle shampoo as babies."
Vera! @ what point?! LMBO… you are something else. But I too will like to know where my hair is coming from and whose head it's from. When you find o ut about yours, let me know (hmm maybe our hair people are besties or somefin sef).
Anonymous: Hmmph! Sadly, you're right. I've gotta watch it before I blow it!
Anonymous: LOL. Very funny!!
Suzanne Brume: Oh, pick and drop! That's my next hair style, by the way, and I have never done it either. Gosh, so many styles to pick from. It's just a lotta hair! What on earth to do with it???
Miss Enigma: You have some nerve trying to find out who Vera is o! Do I need to remind you that your name is "Miss Enigma?" *Rolling eyes* LOL. No spirits dare follow this hair to my head. Lai lai. I want that bag!
Leggy: Never, really? WOW. Neat.
Shorty: Errr… maybe not. Wait till I publish a book … then I'll put a picture up š
Lucid: Hapucha ifa! The person that owns the hair is the person whose head it's dangling from: me. LOL
Myne: Ooooh. I never thought of a hair net oh. Okay, I'll get one then cause this is not funny. You think you can recognize me now? Cool.
Tin Tin: Oh, these curls are nothing compared to the ones I have recently learned to do. Yippee!! I just experimented one day, and it turned out pretty darn good. My dear, I have stopped thinking about the spirit behind the hair oh. LOL.
JobsOfNigeria: LOL. Indeed, in all situations, it's imperative that one must be prayerful.
Femi: LOl! Why now???
Anonymous: That is not fair!!! Why would you not tell me who you are?? *pout* Thanks for the compliment, by the way ***batting eyelashes again*** LOL. Reveal thyself to me
Ibitayo: LOL. Na true now! Wetin you wan make I say? Why would one human hair be tangle free and not the other? Suspicious!!! But you're right oh. Our hair people could be besties (or enemies that are out to kill each other *gasp*)
