I’m looking for something different, but FreeTress Bohemian Curl will forever me my favorite curl pattern. It’s so natural looking. I personally like when curly crochet hair gets a few weeks old. It looks more natural to me.
I purchased the dream romance curl hair back in May in the colors 1b/30 and 1b/33 and the amount of compliments I've received is insane! The hair did come to the middle of my back (i'm 5'5") so I had to do some cutting but I love how low maintenance this hair is. It looks so natural that I don't want to take it out
The Crochet and travel Queen!! I feel like we’re friends, lol I’m an attorney new to my husbands town and I keep thinking, if only we could do our hairs together! 😂 thanks for keeping the Sista’s informed! 🙌🏾😊
I’ve tried Marley Jeri Curl hair from Amazon. And it last at least 2 to 3 months. You will have to keep the maintenance up in order to last and look realistic.
Thank you so much for sharing these! I don’t usually wear longer than a month but I’m happy to know that there are long lasting crochet hair that exist.
Awesome videos & info, I’m new to your channel this week. Have watched several of your videos in the last two days. As mentioned in my previous comment, I have relaxed hair and getting Free Tress Water Wave installed this week on short bob hair, after not having any braids in 7 years. Looking for low maintenance styles to give my relaxed hair a break from daily manipulation and more length so that I can relearn how to install myself for more variety. Thanks you so very much, keep up the good work, love your energy. Stay blessed & well.❤
Honestly you took a minute to grow on me (you don't want to know why. It's not you it's me 🤣🤗) and now I'm addicted to your content. You are so thorough and amazing. Your energy is the best. I really HAVE to subscribe. I have been watching you for over a year. It's time to make this commitment solid lol🤣🤣 love your vids.
I like those colors on you. I have the bohemian hair. The Soft Dread hair is my favorite. It was easiest to install and I got the most compliments wirh that hair. That Romance hair is looking like kinky curly bundles.
A video like this is greatly appreciated. I have a client who will leave her crochet in for months! For example, I installed toyotress twists 2/23, she just came back to get her hair done on 6/12 & STILL had them twists in. But her hair has went from 2 inches long to mid back length, so I don't give her much fuss.
Lia, thanks so much for your review of the different types of hair. I've found that any of the curly hair, I can never keep in longer than 4 weeks. I don't like the frizz and the matting up. Although, people are constantly telling how good it looks, but when I look in the mirror I see nothing that says pretty. Thanks for sharing with us.
Me too. Usually 3-4 weeks is my limit. I work with the matted hair by using Herbal Essence mousse which helps but to me it doesnt look good but I get compliments on it all the time so I guess it looks good on me. I guess the matting is underneath and people dont really see that.
@@LiaLavon Freetress Bohemian Braid did not do it for me. It became so tangly and matty afterwhile. It was beautiful though. Model Model Water Wave was IT though; lasted FOREVER. Like MONTHS. My new growth was crazy but I was so lazy that I just threw on a handband and it still looked good
Lulutress island twist is bomb if you know how to maintain it. Trim the frizz and it's perfect! I swam and snorkeled and kept it in for weeks afterwards.
Freetress’s Island Twist is a true ‘twist out’ look to me. It’s wild how these different brands interpret words. I find Lulutress’s version was too curly less ‘twisty’
Lia giving summer vibes with this look 👌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 You know my OG is freetress beach curl but I only wear crochet for a MAX of 3 wks usually 2, so I can care for my natural hair. I'm sure it could last for 3 months being no maintenance ☺️
Thanks for your videos which are very well done. I need too have my croquet in for three months. no longer, no earlier. So far, I have had not issues , I only wash it three times. I don't put too much oil on my scalp so my scalp doesn't smell. However, most times it's in a crunchy, and occasionally wear it following. I also, twice a week rake my fingers through it ☺️
3/28/23 I have watched ur videos but never subscribed but I am sorry foe the late join. I joined bcuz u did what I have always searched for..... someone who shows proof of time wear effect with synthetic hair. Thank u 🇯🇲
Good day, I LOVE LOVE your channel. I want to re-try this protective style, but I was always put-off by the weight of the hair on my head. Any suggestions on a light weight hair? Thanks in advance.
I was watching your video about crochet hair that is long wearing. You said something about curl refinery, can you show me that video? I would like to see the package
I have been wanting to try this hair since I saw your 1st post it 2 years ago ❤.. but couldn't bring myself to spend that much money on the hair. But girl this week Amazon released a knockoff of this hair. Calling it (pre-twisted yanky twists crochet). So excited to try the cheap alternative.🎉
Hi Lia! Have you or will you try the Ez Crochet hair by Spectra? I’ve been spoiled by the quality of your reviews so reviews from other UA-camr just aren’t cutting it for me lol. I was going to buy some of the Freetress hair for my first install but I discovered that it has a chemical warning. The Ez Crotchet hair fibers are supposed to be safer but the hair looks like it is not the best quality. Also I love the blonde ombré on you! I have such a hard time finding a shade of blond that works with my skin tone and I just might have to give this color combination a try before giving up completely on blond.
Freetress Bohemian Braid did not do it for me. It became so tangly and matty afterwhile. And it was super hard to split. It was beautiful though. Model Model Water Wave was IT though; lasted FOREVER.
I decided to go with the Harlem 125 Kemah soft dread but it’s not available in my color which is silver so I’m going to die the hair with acrylic ink. Do you have experience dying hair? If so can you make a quick video about the same?
Thanks for this video! I’m gonna make a crochet wig, tired of all the work it takes to install & uninstall. I cut my own hair once and it still hunts me to this day 😭 From my experience the model model brand is lower quality, the hair is usually coarser, rougher, duller & tangles more. Wouldn’t recommend at all. I avoid it at all costs 😂
Loved your channel for years 💕 will definitely be doing one of these for vacation soon 😊 Since your videos are typically on the longer side, it'd be great if you could put those time markers within the video so that we can see ahead and jump around.
I'm liking this color on you for the summer and your makeup is flawless.
My favorite is Freetress Bohemian Crochet Braids. Mines lasted for 8 weeks plus and still look good. Yes ma'am
I have this hairstyle right now in. So far it’s been a week since I have it in. But the brand is different.
I have been binging on this channel since last night

I totally needed this, I struggle with maintaining crochet hair. No matter what I do it’s tangles on tangles

I absolutely love this hair. It’s my #1 top choice for when going on vacation. It’s so low maintenance and so gorgeous at the same time. 💕

That’s so great to hear ❤️❤️
Where did you get it? I'm looking for it to wear, it is so pretty
@@lisapierce737 It's called trendz beauty! They all different colors too :))
I'm wearing it now. Only reason I'm taking it down on week 3 is because I did the braid pattern to far apart. Aside from that, it's great.

And yes, it looked horrible, but she had 6 inches of new growth... so idc. My goal with my clients is healthy hair, sometimes it doesn't look cute.
Wow my hair would be matted after 2 months. 6 maybe 7wks at that 8 wks I notice a few sections in the kitchen mats, not at the roots or ends 😫
Thanks Lia, I'm saving this one for a later reference!
Yesss! This was so helpful Lia. Thank ya! ❤️
Thank you so much for watching girl ❤️❤️
A year late but love, love, LOVVVVEE that color hairvon you! Beautiful!
Okay the color you have on now is bomb I love how light the ends are

Which crochet hair is the longest lasting(3 months) according to you?❤
Thanks Lia this was great! I believe 8 weeks is long enough too as long as you get it tightened!

new to the channel do you wash your crotchet hair? if not how do you deal itchy scalp coming from the chemicals in crotchet hair
I don’t wash it and I don’t have a sensitive scalp so it never feels itchy
I'm interested in Human Crochet Hair have you tried this type of hair before?
Yes, search “Lia Lavon Human Hair Crochet” on UA-cam
Thanks
I love the bohemian hair but it just gets too big.
I tried Fretress Gogo Curl based on your review and it was straight garbage. I put that hair in a ponytail and it got so tangled it was a hot mess.
It’s unfortunate that was your experience
It was straight garbage for me too. I only had it in for one day and decided to take it down because it was tangle and matted.
Do u think u will ever go back and update us on hairs u have worn earlier in ur crochet journey. Now that u know more I’d love to see what’s different
I don’t think so. Just because I only try black owned or black supported at this point.
@@LiaLavon ✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊
