LuvMe Hair- Wet & Wavy Headband Wig…Yay or Nay?

LuvMe Hair Wet and Wavy Headband Wig, 20″ , $219

So the summer is officially here and I know we’re trying to live our best lives out in these streets! With more sun and longer days, comes vacations, new outfits and of course hair! LuvMe hair reached out to me to review their wet and wavy headband wig and I definitely had to jump on the bandwagon to see what the trend is all about. Whether you’re on YouTube, Pinterest or TikTok, headband wigs are talked about due to their versatility and how convenient they are all while protecting your hair.

I wore this headband wig for some time now and think I have a good idea of this unit and my overall thoughts.

Construction:

LuvMe hair describes their headband wigs as “beginner and lazy girl friendly”. The unit is comfortable, requires no glue, and can be installed in just seconds. The wig has 4 clips in total (3 at the top and one larger clip at the bottom) to secure the wig in place. In addition to the clips, the headband has a velcro closure to ensure the wig is going NOWHERE. You don’t have to worry about your unit lifting or shifting. To jazz it up a bit, LuvMe hair includes 5 different headbands in the box which makes it super easy to switch it up with different outfits.

In terms of color and texture, this wig came in a natural black color (close to 1B). This hair is human hair and can be straightened or worn curly. If you do straighten this hair, it does go back to it’s wavy texture which is perfect for the person who likes to switch it up. I noticed that the cap was extremely breathable and felt comfortable to wear daily. The density of this unit is perfect. It’s not too full and not too thin, which made it even more realistic. The hair wasn’t heavy at all, which I appreciated. The curls can easily be revived with water or if you want them to look super luscious, use conditioner and water. The curls on this unit were very hydrated and had a natural luster.

Maintenance:

I have 4C hair so maintenance wasn’t too bad with this unit, but you do have to lay your hair down in the very front when wearing this wig. My hair texture is on the coarse side, so it takes a bit more than brushing and using one edge control product. So I definitely won’t say you can plop on this unit and leave the house if you have similar hair texture like mine. Other than laying my hair down, I did revive the curls with water and conditioner every other day to keep the curls looking fresh. When wetting the hair, I did notice some shedding daily, but it wasn’t too crazy.

Pro’s:

  1. I love the texture of this hair. The hair on this unit isn’t cheap and it doesn’t tangle easily.
  2. The versatility is what I love. You can serve a ponytail one day, leave it down or wear some up and leave the rest down. It’s giving looks, okay!
  3. The maintenance is not time consuming, which is always a plus if you have a hectic schedule like mine.
  4. If you don’t like sleeping with hair or wigs, this unit is perfect. You can take it off each night and won’t feel restricted.

Cons:

  1. The only con I have is that I have to lay the front of my hair down. I would probably wear it for 2 weeks tops and then change it up to not over manipulate my hair.

Yay or Nay?

This unit is a yay for me. I love the texture (especially for summer) and the versatility. I would definitely recommend this hair due to the quality of the hair. If you try it, please let me know how you like it!

Until next time!

Later <3

Hey y’all 💕💐! It’s May…also Mental Hea Hey y’all 💕💐! It’s May…also Mental Health Awareness Month!

It has definitely taken some time for me to find out what "self care" truly means to me. While wellness is a trend on social media, I really hope that we are really taking care of ourselves when needed. I love to see black women taking care of themselves and moving with ease. 

- * Healthy Habits in my Routine -
1. Journaling: Journaling can be so freeing. I use my journals to stamp things during therapy, during Bible study or just to mind dump. 
2. Eating Balanced Meals: I feel like there isn't enough importance on how vital eating nutritious foods are. Trust, I love my feel good foods, but at my big age I know food plays a part in so many ways. It’s about balance. 
3. Movement: The positive effects of moving my body has made my healing journey so much more intimate with myself. Movement is truly my second form of therapy.
4. Rest: I used to feel guilty resting from anything, but sometimes it’s totally needed. Step away to prioritize the important things: relationship with god, making those appointments (so important), having those conversations, feeling your emotions (still working on this) and just diving into real community vs. social media. Our work/productivity is not our worth. It’s okay to step away.
5. Unlearning and Learning: Whether it’s gods pruning process or realizations, unlearning and learning is important. It’s truly the only way to grow beyond what you’ve learned/know. Address the uncomfortable habits, feel the uncomfortable feelings, educate yourself on the things that matter. It will be life changing for you and your lineage.

As I get older, I become more intentional about my As I get older, I become more intentional about my choices and what to prioritize. One being, my health. Consistency is important, but for the right reasons. Here’s what helps me be consistent:

💪🏾 I no longer have a specific body goal. I focus on strength (physical and mental). I always say the gym is my second form of therapy lol. 

💪🏾 All movement counts. All workouts don’t have to be super high impact, but enjoyable.

💪🏾 Involving my husband. We’ve both been in the gym and I love that we can both share things about our journey. Helps us bond.

💪🏾 Showing myself grace. All days won’t be perfect, but showing up matters 

💪🏾 Don’t use the scale as a monitor. I don’t monitor my weight at all because getting stronger also leads to muscle gain. The scale may go up, but you appear more toned. This may trigger you and lead to you giving up. Don’t pay any mind to it.

So this first impressions video was taken over a m So this first impressions video was taken over a month ago, but I’ve been loving the @cosrx Snail Essence. I’m usually hesitant when trying new skincare products, but after doing research I wanted to try it! 

First off, what is a Essence?
An Essence is a water-based skin care product that contains a high content of active ingredients. These actives hydrate, protect, and boost the overall health of skin.

An Essence should be applied to damp skin. When essence is applied to clean skin after using a cleanser and toner, it helps restore hydration to the skin cells. When it’s applied before serums and moisturizers, it helps the skin better absorb these products.

Either way is fine. I love this Essence because it has helped with hydration, skin texture and hyperpigmentation. I love it! Have you tried this product?

Even though I don’t believe pain is a prerequisite for growth, there are times where God uses struggles and hardships to correct us. Brings us out of something we don’t have no business in 😂. And, there are times when we're simply being given an opportunity for growth—being "trained" into a deeper faith.

It sucks sometime, but it’s all about perspective.
A little vitamin sea and D does the body good. 🌊☀️🌱
in my fitness girl era - saying no, setting bounda in my fitness girl era - saying no, setting boundaries, prioritizing my goals etc.
Things that have helped me be consistent:

✨Being okay with missing out: Honestly, no fomo here. At all.
✨ Recognizing Distractions: Putting your head down and worrying about your journey is the most peaceful thing. Build that awareness of controllable things that has your time + attention. 
✨ Set realistic and sustainable goals: If you cannot make it to workout 5 days a week, do 2. Work your way up. 
✨ Showing myself GRACE: progress over perfection. Showing up to do things that will evolve me physically and mentally is enough. Progress.
✨ Celebrating yourself: Self validation is very important. Get good with celebrating your wins. Value yourself over the outside accolades. 
✨Getting good with systems: My therapist always says, if something goes wrong don’t criticize yourself. Always check your systems. Making lifestyle changes is all about systems (taking vitamins, fitness, meal prepping, grocery list, etc). How do you seamlessly make that apart of your lifestyle and cut out the barriers?
✨ Balanced Living: Still doing/eating things that I enjoy, but having balance is key.

I’m definitely a balanced eater which means sometimes I eat for nourishment and sometimes I strictly eat what taste amazing(the foodie in me). Having a balanced diet def. helps me feel my best.
