I will be honest and say I should have written this post a few hours ago but I couldn’t get past the “Why would someone do that to themselves?” or the “Is it really that serious, can a person not appreciate their own hair that much?”
Those are all judgmental statements and while we live in a judgmental world we aren’t called to judge all the time and today I wasn’t here for my own thoughts on this situation!
Let me get off my issues and tell the story, here is a lady that literally allowed her weave to remain in her hair for 2 years straight, no exaggeration.
Her picture was shared by her stylist at Elite Strands a salon in Brooklyn. The salon shared pictures and Instagram videos across social media platforms about their client how they tackled the removal of the 2 year old weave.
The question I had, was what happened as the hair grew out because as most of us know your hair never stops growing.
The answer was pretty easy to find, the client would have new tracks glued close to the top of her head which means the stylist was faced with old glue, old tracks and tangled hair from 2 years worth of neglect.
The only way out of this mess would be to big chop and that is exactly what the salon confirmed happened:
One thing is for sure the stylist is dedicated to what she does. She saw this as a challenge and quite frankly it definitely benefited her on business level.
Many of the commentors on Instagram were pretty mean, calling the lady ‘nasty’ but like I mentioned before that is just the world we live in.
It is very difficult not to look at a 2 year old weave and not wonder if the hair was ever washed? How was the state of her scalp? Is this even real?
But again I will refrain from over thinking it, I will leave that to you guys! Comment below and let us know what you think about this story.
I saw this that s**t start to mold after awhile
Ratchet Gross!
That’s dumb
Oh my.
What the hell was she thinking
Now that is nasty
Just so nasty. The dirt and filth and matting, trifling. Would you wait two years to wash your rear end? Your head needs cleansing too.
I’m curious to know how much that stylist charged her to fix this….
Personally if she ended up just chopping it all off I can’t imagine much
The process took 7 hours… To remove, cut, and give her a new look!
I would have charged her more than $300 for that service. That’s sweat, blood & tears trying to come up with a solution for the old weave, then more work to come up with a solution on putting a NEW weave on some big chopped hair…ain’t no $100 solution!
$300?! Shoooooot! I’m not a hair stylist, but TRUST me…….GROUPON would not have been able to help her had it been ME taking that utter funkness off her head!

Why the fuck would she leave it in for that damn long. Knowing that you could literally fuck up your real hair underneath. You have to allow your hair to air out or else this will happen. How dumb can she be. Now you have no other choice but to shave it all off. It’s no way of saving that shit. Her real hair look like brunt carpet.
smh, why 2 years though ??
I’ve seen someone do this, it ain’t no telling what’s in that hair. ..smh
Ok soooo, i need to know who she buy her hair from tho.. She left it in for 2yrs in it look that good… #GoodBundles #GoodHair #INeedAnswers
I really wanna know. Cause I’m thinking something
I don’t think she left that actually weave in there is no way possible I think that for the past two years she has been installing and removing tracks without removing the glue… a friend of mine did the same thing for months…. to lazy to actually remove all traces of glue just pulled out bought new weave and glued on top off old glue when I cut her hair it was so freaking disgusting rotten smelling… I actually threw up… TWICE
The second pic is the after pic from the first pic. I think the hair was reused..
I was actually thinking same….Great hair !
Disgusting and lazy behaviour!!!
Ugh
Whyyyyyy
Right on god
Beyond Nasty
This is a first for me. Wow
Ok wait. Who leaves weave in for 2 years? It looks like they put the weave on top of her matted hair. I’m so confused
She did a big chop…
No girl it was that glue I hate glue to me in my personal opinion I feel chew with glued in hair instead of sew in.
Yes they used glue to put new tracks on the new growth thats just nasty
It says in the article that she put glue on top of glue. Wow! That’s crazy!
Gotta read the article to understand the article.
Crazy…bc glue is not going to stay for 2 years or 2 months. Thts strange to but o ok
No they had to cut that nasty hair off
It had to smell like death!
Lol!!! Not death!?!?!?!!!
You know it did!
ROTFL! Lol
Lmaoo
Gross
I don’t believe that nobody dose that
I guess she got her money’s worth.
I’m sorry….that is just pure laziness. I am so upset I have nothing else to say, and it’s not even relevant to me.
Thats nasty, lazy, and she should be ashamed. Vomit
That’s just not right, nasty /lazy
Gross..
Leaves a weave in for 2 years… only to leave this new weave in for 2 years
Guess we’ll read about her again in another 2 years!
was tryna touch the like button n it cldn’t work.m so exhausted of laughing…who does that?
Lol
Oh my! Funny
Funny
Wow. Idk. Why in heavens name. Smh.
2 years what the heck.
Oh hell no that some nasty s**t tho
Everyone judging but no one knows why she left it in that long. And some of yall leave yall weave in for two months or more and it’s only supposed to be in for 4 to 5 weeks.
You can keep a sew in for 8 weeks at the most actually
Mental illness is real.
Even if you go to jail. They make sure you have your weave removed. There’s no excuse for this type of bull s**t.
Don’t cover ur face now, let’s see who done this dumb shit…:/
i’m never surprised. as the salon director for RESH for the past 5 years, i’ve seen more than you can imagine. all claim that they are “protecting” their hair…from who…from what? may i suggest that you stay off youtube, find products that actually work and consult a licensed professional. that is all
I once left a weave in for 3 months, biggest mistake ever, never doing that again!! The big chop is her only option. If that were me (godforbid) I would have choped it off myself, why pay someone to do it and have my business posted on social media for everyone to see and criticize?
I’ve kept a sew-in for three months before, but it was professionally installed as well as washed every 2-3 weeks. Maintenance is key…
Ya’ll just pray for her,you got to have spiritual minded issues to do something like that.I know I was sick in the head when I was wearing wigs,weaves,relaxers,fake this fake that etc….My uncle wanted to whoop me for putting that stuff on my hair (lol) I miss hearing him say “YOU GONNA WAKE UP ONE MORNING LOOKING LIKE MISS ALOPECIA IF YOU DON’T STOP MESSING WITH GODS WORK”!! Thank God I have gotten over that.I am proud of my kinky curly hair.God makes no mistakes.
I decided to go natural almost a year ago. I still do braids but no more yaki for me and it feels good. My boyfriend loves it too
I stopped covering my natural hair over 6 years ago.Chemicals,weave and all damaged my hair and skin,but today you can never tell.I had a so called man that told me if I ever went natural he would leave me and I said you know what I live for God and not man so here’s two choices your old blank blank can do,you can either jump out the window or leave the same way you came in my home.My health is more important than anything besides God and my children.I love wearing natural hair,I learned how to grow my own hair by finding out what my grandparents used back in the old days.Onion juice,aged garlic,black strap molasses will make your hair grow,especially bee pollen so my hair is very long,My sons are so proud of me,I didn’t know I was truly embarrassing them when I wore wigs,relaxers…Thank God I am done with it all.I proudly wear my hair in big jumbo bantu knots or a twist out Afro and I feel good.God is good!!
I’m with you! About that “man” who threatened to leave you if you went natural, I’m glad you left that turkey. LOL And I commend your sons for loving & respecting you for who you are. I’m also glad your health is improving. God IS good! Be blessed!
What hair I have is natural but I do wear wigs. What she did was serious imbalance, maybe what you did was “sick” as you said not me, I don’t know you. But not everyone who wears hair is sick or mentally ill. I like the convenience and freedom of taking it off. Sow ins sound like a head hair prison. yikes ! I started wearing hair after serious illness and working in the corp world, and I actually liked it. Wigs are fun. Stay blessed. Glad you are now doing something that suits you best. 🙂
Putting relaxers (chemicals) and white weave etc… and all that stuff on my hair to me was a sickness in my opinion.My uncle would sit down and say you got to be foolish to put something in your hair that can unclog a drain and can burn your scalp and hair that ain’t even yours……..But you know whatever works for you,great,but what works for me is being natural and being healthy.Stay blessed
I had a physical illness that took my hair away. Though my health has greatly improved my hair never recovered. So I braid what little I have, its just enough to pin a wig to. No one needs a reminder that they physically went thru somethin on everyones face everyday. By the grace of God, I’m good. But I do miss my hair. So yeah, I enjoy putting on some hair when I’m out and about. Personally, I don’t do human hair. Synthetic is fine, heat styled is an option. Also gives me variety that don’t break my bank. I can see what you say about it being a sickness to some, because the obsession can get extreme like the 2 yr lady, and people who spend thousands and thousands for sow ins. Some people, like me who is trying to find a natural way to restore my hair and need some normalcy and actually find it wearing hair.
Tried some of the things you did. Not the onion or garlicjuice tho. Bee Pollen, got it, mollasses and I take mollasses powder to that’s a huge help in restoring my health. Raw honey and coconut oil improved my scalp but no growth. I went natural with what I put in my body. It’s still a journey back to good health.
I am going to pray for you,I know God is able to do anything,but fail……I believe it will grow,Over 6 yrs ago I lost all mine twice due to chemicals,wigs and all…if you was on Pinterest I would be glad to show you my hair and how long and thick my hair is since leaving chemicals etc…alone and treating my hair with old remedies.I don’t use commercial brand hair or skin products because of the ingredients in it.I don’t even use deodorant,it can have bad effects on your health.I spray my underarms with apple cider vinegar,rub it in to keep any odor away,the vinegar smell dissipates after 2 minutes.And yes,blackstrap molasses is great,it’s just about the only thing I shampoo my hair with or use as a healthy drink.I also use it on my puppy,then I oil her down with peanut oil or castor oil.Please let me know if you need me.
Would love to connect. I need people who are into natural remedies and Jesus as much as me!
Jacey Nivar,i would love to know where I could get these products because I too am tired of covering my natural hair with braids and weaves… ONLY because my own hair refuses to grow. Would love to go natural
N i cant even leave it for two months :/ #weird_isht
Stupid
It’s easy for me to post a negative comment about this, but I won’t simply because it won’t help me to understand what she was thinking! Obviously something is going on with her mentally, this is not normal behavior on any level.
Just think, her hair could have probably been long and healthy had she not added the other tracks with glue..
Thts the highest level of laziness. She need help
Disgusting.
I’m stuck ! So she just kept gluing in tracks cuz they would have slipped if it was glued n if it was sewn it that had to b loose as ever n hanging by braids. I’m done
That’s just plain nasty!!!! She deserve for all her damn hair to fall out & snakes to start growing in it.
Way too harsh of a comment.
Lol!!! The best comment for today.
How long are u suppose to leave a weave in ur hair I normally would get the hair clips I find it to be so much easier
With glue it will let you know when the weft hair (tracks) start slipping that’s when you take them down and wash. With sew in you could leave it in for 2 and a half months If you wanted to. Like I do with mines gives my natural time to grow. Also with sew in you can wash your hair if the braids are tight enough and the sew in was done correct. Wash very gently that will keep your hair clean.
Yea that just sounds like to much lol I’ll stick to my braids and clip in wen I want a weave …but thank u
I know her weave was stanky. It doesn’t take much to take your hair down wash then reinstall
N nasty…wid that stench that’s comin from under it….ewww
Who kept adding those tracks to the top of her head?
Nasty
I believe I was just install take out and reinstall weave to fresh to be two yrs old ijs…. I see stuff like this all the time just not two yrs worth
That is the new weave to the right and the death trap on the left
The hair on top wasn’t two years old. She glued new weave over the old weave periodically. So the crown looks fresh but I bet the base weave looked as messed up as her natural hair.
I dont want to judge but My God 2 years….did she have any pain because i know there had to be mold and sores in her head. And i can only imagine the smell. I pray everything works out for her
My natural hair smells after 2 wks . I dnt wear weaves but I have helped take them dwn before and the hair smells bad. Ijs no judgement
Oh my!
That must have been hella expensive LOL
I meant that weave must have been hella expensive
This has to be Fake!!
Yes it could be fake, maybe she wants this kind of attention, a mental thing or if you had a family member with this issue what kind of family does she have that just doesn’t care! Where is FAMILY?
She’s probably not mentally ill. Some women are just lazy when it comes to their hair. They go natural thinking its less work and when they find out its not they just stop doing anything to their hair at all. Maybe it was her finances and that was all she could afford. I really don’t know but my scalp wouldn’t let me do it. It’s sad she had to chop it all off.
Nasty heffa!
……….
Was she adding new hair to this or regluing ? I get paranoid after a month that my hair is going to nap
how to grow one big moldy dred 101. smh…
This is just not normal …
I know there were plenty of bugs and eggs.
Yuck
Wow… poo child. At least she taking it out now
Fake.
If I was her I be covering up my face too because that is just nasty and embarrassing
Is that her hair or scalp?? A scab? What is that?
that’s her hair and her scalp…i’m pretty sure she lost a lot of hair too
She has no choice but to completely shave her hair off and start over.
How is that possible
totally gross!!!
Wow and here I thought eight weeks was 2 long
I have so many unanswered questions…. Zumba TJ, Jaquel Johnson
S**t is foul. After two months im already like enough… 2 years …yikes
I’m having a hard time understanding the title. SMH I see some prayer and education in her near future.
A cheap she cheap to get it done often
NASTY ! I’m sure poor hygiene as well.
Like wtf posses you to leave weave in your hair that long
Disgusting your hair is stink…. omg unbelievable wow
Trifling
Just pure nastiness
Hmm
They said that she put NEW WEAVE on top of old WEAVE. That’s why it looked good. As we all know her hair must of stunk.
Wouldnt that get heavy after a while too? lol
Yes it would. I used to wear weave but never kept it in no more then one month.
I’m horrified & fascinated at the same time. Who DOES this to themselves & more importantly, WHY?!?!?!
Just dumb!!
What’s wrong with having short hair?
I get yelled at for taking braids in weaves down two or three weeks after getting them done. I can’t imagine not washing my hair for 2 years.
Ewwww!!! Just plain nasty!!!
I would have chopped it all off, no negotiations. Her hair couldn’t have been healthy anyway
That’s the most dumbest thing I have ever seen. Then she have the nerve to cover her facr
Nasty but leaving it in for months is still bad
How’s that possible????
I also wonder what was the deciding factor to do something about it now…I can only imagine how itchy…
Like seriously??! That’s madness if u ask me lol
That’s nasty but her hair dresser violate di woman confidential by blasting her nastiness on social media
she should be ashamed of herself, that’s straight up nasty!
Yuk
Sad to be so vain and LAZY!!!!!!
I would seriously like to know WHY. And then also, what finally made her go in AFTER the two years.
Y even wear that crap period
I have no words! I can just imagine the stench.
Damn nasty
Did she have a man because that was one stink ass bedroom!
Ewwww mine stay in 3 months tops and that’s rarely… You have to take care of your own hair underneath or when you take that weave off you won’t have none…
I would not have touched that
Eww.
I Can’t. I Can’t. I just Can’t Understand It. A sister at that. There had to be something going on with her mind to do this.
Not sure I even believe this….hopefully it’s satire
Disgusting!!!!
MAYBE…. she was in city,county,or state… or in a rehab… those are the only excuse…
Yuck….
My head itches just thinking about it.
I can’t make it 4 weeks
But whyyyy? Whoever glued the hair over batted hair needs not to EVER do hair again. Smh what happened to PROTECTING your clients hair? That was the work of someone looking to make a quick buck smh
I highly doubt this!! Her hair would’ve fell out long ago
ewww 2 years tho. trife life
She was putting new glue on top of old glue, she wasn’t washing it at all. I’ve only worn weave once in my life and that was 16 years ago. I tagged my sister because they wear it so I wanted to know why would somebody do this to their hair. From what I could see, mold or some sort of bacteria started to form…
And this is why there are websites like this one to educate women in their hair journey. We can’t judge what she thought the definition of what she thought beauty was. As you can see from the article, she even tried to save her matted hair before the hairdresser told her it had to be cut off. so what does it say about the pressure of being beautiful? It says to me that she wants to be beautiful no matter the cost and that’s scary to me because there has to be a better way to teach women everywhere to be their own kind of beautiful.
OMG!!…. that is such poor hygiene.
Nastyy…. 3 months tops for me.. She should be ashamed of herself
It had to itch!
She nasty
So, she was pulling the weave up and re-gluing it? You know I am losing my hair and I am also cheap, so I need to have options here. Clark Howard might give me a free T-shirt for this money-saving tip…
Two years tho???
The hair still looking good after two years… I want the name of the seller ahahaha
Black culture is so hard to understand! When there is a little crazy involved, it does seem to help. Crazy is universal…
eeeuuuwwww ooohh God no …. 😮
Nasty how it smelled. I’m sorry some women’s hair smells stink even if they kept there weave in for a month.
Gt my head on st8 itch mode…ew.
It may have been wrong for the stylist to put the woman on social media, but I think she was just show casing her talent. She did blur her face and hopefully she had permission before doing so.
No No no just because the hair last for two years doesn’t mean you leave it in for Two years
Yuck that’s nasty as hell one month or two is long enough. .
Her poor scalp
MY QUESTION IS: HOW much$$ did that appt cost for them to spend 4+ hours trying, deciding it won’t work, chopping, washing, disinfecting, reinstalling… Exhausted thinking about it. You couldn’t pay me!
Just nasty come lady.
i say this article must be a hoax this is imposseble their is no way you can leave a weave 2 years in common people let’s we all be real here your natural hair will start to break off at least a year remember the weave is stich on your hair that will start to grow out and then your hair will start to crack and break even if there is some hair left when they start to mess with the natural hair everything will fall apart it like touching a mummy if you are not carefull enough it will fall apart so this story is imposseble there is no way she can stich another weave on her head again she will be bold that red hair on the pic that most be wig common people think about it
No hoax I saw the video
“imposible” no it isn’t. Uncombed hair will mat once it mats it will not shed and fall out. It stays on her head like locs. The condition of her scalp most likely kept growth to a minimum so she was able to just glue on new tracks as the old ones broke down (thinned out). She had to have been going through some real issues. I hope she got help.
And I ragged on a friend for keeping hers for 5 months. I’ve heard it all now.
Her weave wasn’t sewn in, it was glue, and for two years she only added more hair to her crown where you could see the new growth. Like Tina said, the hair underneath eventually matted together, which is why this was even possible. Basically she had old weave glued to matted hair for two years. Absolutely possible.
I think it was a sew in & as it grew out she would add glued in tracks on top to make it look new … NASTY ASS
Sewn glue common now both will break the natural hair I guess non of y’all knows how much work needs to be done when you have dreadlocks!! You need to take care of it washing spin it put any special lotion in it so it will not break now imagine 2 years no kind of treatment at all what you will think will happen? Before you all go by you mind think go and try it your selfs or aks a rasta men what could happen if he don’t take care off his hair for 2 years
Christina Albertus I have locs. I’ve had them since 2007. I started them myself and I maintain them myself. I know exactly how much “work” they need. There is no special lotion they only require washing and moisture. I use natural hair care products but I could use relaxed hair care products and get the same results.
Whether you have cultivated locs or like some men of the Rastafarian faith just leave them to mat however they choose, hair WILL mat together.
The video shows her original sew-in tracks and the matted grown attached to it. It doesn’t really matter if you believe it or not, I was just telling you that it is very possible and how.
some rasta men don’t take care of their lock agree special lotion that;s exactly what i mean with moisture some use aloe vera the conclusion is the same they take care off it anyway like all of you i need to see that video that i will shut up women hair is diffrent from men
I seen the video it is real just like some ppl start they dreads with very small braids if you leave them alone they will mat & come together if you leave them alone you don’t need nothing … It depends on the person when they grow out you can use a re-locking gel but most ppl just let them grow as is especially rastafarians because they gotta let them grow natural as is nothing like she did so she had one big ass dread …
No it’s not I saw the video. It’s real
*Impossible*
Hair doesn’t have a sex. Hair is the same no matter whose head its growing on. The video is there for anyone to see. Two years is a long time but if you Google it you will see a lot of videos where women left their weaves in for more than a year. I saw one where a white lady didn’t comb hers for years. They ended up cutting hers out too. I don’t know what psychological issues these people have and I can’t and wont judge them. I can only pray they get the help they need.
Christina Albertus rastafarians uses nothing for they dreads it’s against the religion the do everything natural … REAL RASTAFARIANS & you don’t have to be dread fi bi a rasta … Ain’t no special lotion now it’s things you can use just for dreads but it’s a rip of just for you to buy it … Cause you can use any gel to retwist or anything to moisturize it , its hair aint no different from men & women hair you sound crazy
Ewww. .you couldn’t smell that? !?!
Wtf
that’s madness right there
I know ppl that do that clue on top of old clue yes it don’t surprise me my head itch when dirty n if I ignore my head it get really sore but that’s my head can’t speak 4 other’s
That is so nasty!
So she aint wash her head in two yearssss???????!
Y’all obviously didn’t read the article… She was in a very depressed state and didn’t care about anything. Her finally taking her weave out and cutting all the matted hair off was her starting a new beginning for her life.
What in the hell is going on here?? I’m not trying judge but dammit that’s not even an option!! I bet her hair was stinking too.
whyyy
Just downright horrific who in their right mind helped her take it out???
She has to shave all her hair off and start back over.
A mess is all I know
Thats nasty!! I dont care how good u take care of your hair thats triflin
That’s just crazy. I would have started with the clippers. There’s no way you can untangle two years of matted hair. Hours of wasted time. Grab those clippers and shave. An hour tops.
I can’t imagine what issues the client had that she could keep a two year old weave and just keep gluing over it. I hope she got help.
If she took care of her hair from day 1 her hair would be as long as the weave by now. ..but look at her, all that effort, now she bald
Hair denial #lovetopretend
This can’t be real.
Sad
I will never understand the whole weave crap.
Why are black women conditioned to do this? Breaks my Heart. Leave your hair alone. Just love it the way it is.
my heart gets broken when i see cruelty happens to people’
Gross!
Eww see that’s why I don’t get weaves if I know I’m not going to wash it regularly just because u got a weave doesn’t mean u don’t wash ur hair
Is her hair peeling off her head after two years of retaining that sew in? That’s way too disgusting and over the top
That’s disgusting
Maybe she thought she’d have almost two years’ worth of growth? Perhaps slowly transitioning? ☺
Aww she needs help!
Thats nasty. End of story.
She just plain nasty
God forbid!
After about 3 week, 4 tops I am ready to take it out. Money wasted, i guess that explains why I don’t get weaves.
I commend the hair stylist, she took on the challenge and had such a positive approach.
Her stylist was not a good one if she kept putting weave on top of weave. Nasty just nasty.
Plain nastiness
GROSS‼️‼️ MOLDY HAIR..
Ewwwww…. Yuck
You better hide your face!!!
What I want to know is what reputable stylist would continually glue tracts in her hair.
Why? ??
That is just lazy & trifling…. And if I was the stylish I would not have touch that mess…. I am sure it was some living things inside that mess….She should be to damn shame to show up at the beauty shop trying to get that mess corrected…..smh
Is she alrizzle? wtf 😀
That’s just nasty!
That’s triflin as hell. Bet she got none
I’d cover my face up too
D picture sef looks irritating
leave her alone, would you? ! It’s her weave, her money, her life. let her be. Get out of her hair, and yes pun intended
I left mine in for 2 months and felt bad about that, i washed it though
Datz mad nasty!!!!!!!
Wow, this is making me so itchy. I’m about to wash my hair.I’ve been natural for three years. How did she endure this. I know that she had to smell it.SMH! 🙁
hahahahahahahahaha 😀 we shall pray for her
No way
Eeeww…..
Omg thats nasty
This just nasty !!!! no excuses !!!
You know that can mold js lol ew
Who cares??? Lolol
Lol comment made me laugh so hard
Does that mean she has to have all hair cut off because of sever matted?
OMG
And I thought I was lazy when it came to my hair..smh
Wow!
ewww thats disgusting
most definitely i will be judgemental because there is no reason to leave that crap in your hair for a quarter of that time let alone 2 years. its very unsanitary which is UNhealthy. i could go on and on but i wont.
Mine has been in for 6 weeks, I’ve washed it 3 times and I’m still dying to take it out this week.
Dutty gal!!!
You got me idk who in there rt mind
Omg what the hell did I just read
We ask ourselves the question, how can one let certain things happen, or I couldn’t see myself in that situation. Yes its heart breaking, first thing let’s not judge ,you never know what one is through or how deep it is. Depression is real and it can have you spinning out of control until one decides to stop the madness.FB family Let’s pray not only for her but for anyone who might be going through something so deep that it can have you in serious limbo. Let pray for their healing. Peace
Is she crazy or stupid
Unbelievable
I’m sure there are a few things living in there – disgusting and lazy!
Point is who was her hairdresser? I don’t think she fixed those weaves herself for those two years she had them.
That head looked like a rats nest .
Well… she loved her bundles!
O helll noooo
Seems impossible considering it would’ve gotten looser by the day.
Nasty!
Let’s hear it for pixie cuts 🙂
Yikes!
I don’t believe it
Poor child, who knows her state of mind. Low self-esteem and depression can make you do some messed up things. God bless her.
I can nearly leave my weave in for a MONTH.. the itching be crazy at times.. and I LOVE washing my hair every WEEK so even when I have my weave in a MONTH I be bugging sometimes… so for her to do it 2 yrs, ants roaches dirt and dust had to come out of that mess… Dear Lord.. I hope this is FAKE!
But who does tht unless she like a old friend of mines tk off put the same weave after a hair rinse which is now a dirty wig. Add more glue and keep it moving. O well by the looks new short cut. NATURAL
that’s so bad :/
Nasty ewww.
I cant deal with a trifling customer that want every penny out of their hair do.
She learned from this experience; as well as taught others that are wearing weaves some valuable information and insight.
Whaaaaaat. Liberties myaaaan
Ok, if this is real, it’s gross. I don’t wear weaves, and my scalp gets a little uncomfortable if I wait too long to shampoo it, her scalp had to be unhealthy under all that. The stylist is to be commended for rehabilitating what was left of her hair, and initially trying to work through it; when I was a stylist I would have apologetically told her from the beginning I was going to have to cut it all the way up to where it wasn’t matted, and I was not a scissors-happy stylist. As for her state of mind, I feel like she may have been living a lie, it got good, and she continued. She started getting compliments on how nice her hair looked, and rather than changing it when she was supposed to, she decided to let it “grow” out, like it was her own long, healthy hair. Definitely some form of mental illness going on here, as well as possible self esteem issues. Glad she got it out, kind of disappointed she apparently got more weave though instead of letting her own hair and scalp rest. Let’s hope she keeps it up this time, instead of disappearing for another 2 years, or takes it out on her own when it grows out some. My question is, did she have any real friends or family members who cared? I don’t think so, because a real friend would have taken her aside at some point and let her know it was starting to look a little bad, maybe even offered to fix it for her. And family, while they might not be as nice, would likely get straight to the point and tell her, “hey your hair is looking a little ragged, maybe it’s time to get it fixed”.
I’m surprised this lady has ANY hair at all. And she could have gotten a serious scalp infection from leaving that weave in for 2 years. WHAT WAS SHE THINKING????
