It's All A Bit Hairaising

I'd been wearing my last u-part for near on a year and had decided it was time to give that hair a rest and invest in some new. I still was not ready to give up my current style. As a self confessed big hair girl this style is here to stay for a while.


 I was however ready to try a different brand of hair and go a grade up. Enter Brazilian deep wave. After a lot of shopping around I decided to go with a company by the name of Hairaisers that amongst other things offers multi bundled packages in pre-set lengths. I opted for their unprocessed Brazilian virgin remy pack which I purchased via Pak Cosmetics for £109.99 +  P&P. I ordered the hair on a Monday and it had arrived on the Friday by 1st class signed delivery.

Hairaisers Unprocessed Brazilian Virgin Remy in Deep Wave Natural
I chose a pack with lengths 14" 16" and 18". the pack contained 2 bundles of each but in my opinion1 bundle is only half the size of most regular bundles so my six were more like the equivalent of 3. Also included was a small closure unit.


on unpacking the hair it was super soft to the touch but for unprocessed hair the curls clumps were a little too perfect for my liking. None the less this was still beautiful hair that I could not wait to install. There was no odd smell to the hair nor was there any evidence of lice or other bugs. I washed and conditioned the hair and then literally hung it up to dry.


Once dry I sealed the weft to prevent any excess shredding and then proceeded to construct my new U-part




I really was not keen on the closure that came in the pack so I went and purchased lace front closure also from Pak. I chose one of their own brand Brazilian Virgin curly in natural.

As you can see I sew my wefts extremely closely together and never sew through the wefts.

This was the end result.



And here it is freshly installed.


This hair is gorgeous but how does it fair with every day life. Well even after sealing the wefts I have experienced so much shredding with this hair. Not to mention the tangling. I have had to do a major detangling of this hair every evening since installing, so definitely not recommended for those looking for a low maintenance option. Curly hair is always going to be hard work but this is more so than I was expecting. Would I purchase this hair again? Probably not, purely based on the amount of work it takes to keep it in good condition. Is this hair absolutely gorgeous? Oh that goes without saying. Even though I've had mixed reviews I thinkI may give aliexpress a try as they have a whole shoot load of vendors so I will let you know how I get on.


Thank you
