Another Tight Curl (26") Worn Straight

 A couple months ago we had some pics of Natalie's tight curl wig that we had blown out and flat ironed straight.  Since I've been wearing a 26" Fijian tight curl (weave) I decided , I too,  would like to change it up.  I blow dried my hair straight, but unlike Natalie, I used a domed iron (sort of like a semicircular flat iron) to curl my tresses.  I have to tell you, I really love the tight curl.  It is definitely my (latest) hair of choice, particularly when I am in Miami!  If I had a dime for all the "aye Mami!'s" I get. LOL  The beauty of wearing our organic hair, is the versatility GOOD hair offers.  Unlike other brands, our curls are all natural curls, not processed, permed, or otherwise artificially curled.  We don't offer cookie-cutter hair.  As such, the hair behaves beautifully, allowing you to style it to your heart's content ;-)  We've worn our curly hair bone straight, and we've done our straight hair mega curly.  The options are there for you!

Miss MyMy at the Miami Carnival

Miss MyMy wearing a 26'' tight curl weave.  Gloria in an 18'' medium curl.

I already put a tweet out there about the Miami carnival, asking if it was just me, or was the experience just...."mehhh?".  Meaning, I was really surprised by how many people were just standing around.  It's CARNIVAL people!  I was with Gloria from Analysis in Hair, and we decided if no one else felt like dancing, OH WELL!  We made our own fun.  I swear Gloria's hubby took pictures with everyone that walked in front of him LOL.  It was just one of those things that you set your mind to, and commit that you will enjoy yourself, no matter what.  And that is exactly what we did!

Get Instant Bangs Without Cutting Your Hair (or Wig!)

One of the greatest new things we carry has to be the Instant Fringe for easy bangs. No commitment in cutting your own hair. I don't know about you, but I have had the experience of cutting my hair into bangs, only to wish a week later that I hadn't.

This unit is completely hand tied on fine mono Simply pull your hair back slightly and clip the piece at the front of your hair for an instant change…No need to cut your precious hair. Whether you already have bangs and would like to add long soft layers around your face with an all one length front center part...or you don't have bangs but would like to have some without the commitment...this small piece is a perfect addition to your hair wardrobe.
This unit can be worn:

• With extensions or your own hair for an instant non-permanent change.
• Takes seconds to apply with clips.
• Does not damage your hair

Available with the following hair types from 14"-26"

• Malaysian
• Fijian
• European all lengths may not be available (special order)
• Natural Grey

To achieve the look Nicki Minaj has in these pictures, I recommend a 14' Malaysian straight Instant Fringe with 20' medium curl wig or extensions.

Styling Tips for Curly Hair

While the Miss MyMy curly hair wigs and extensions http://www.missmymy.com/wigs.html
http://www.missmymy.com/remi_cuticle.html are a truly beautiful thing, there are a few things you should know in order to keep your curl looking it's Miss MyMy best.

Clean
Curly hair tends to get very dry very quickly. It's imperative that you wash your hair at least weekly with a moisturizing shampoo. Miss MyMy's Nourishing Shampoo is formulated to clean your hair without stripping your hair. People tend to think that frequent washing will wash out all the moisture from their hair, but think of it this way: when you wash your hair, you are saturating it with water, cleaning away pollutants and build up which can cause your hair to not behave properly. Believe it or not, even your natural scalp oil if allowed to build up for weeks on end (trust me, Miss MyMy has seen it ALL!) can cause the hair on your wig to break.

Condition
Once you've cleaned your hair, you want to lock in some of that moisture with a good conditioner. Miss MyMy's Pliant Conditioner Series is specially formulated to replenish your hair with moisture. Your hair is left feeling silky and smelling great too! I like to comb my conditioner through with a wide tooth comb.



Serum
I was reading in a fashion magazine this morning about caring for curly hair (which is where I got the idea of today's blog topic) and one of the things mentioned, was serum. Well, well, well...Miss MyMy has been shouting the praises on Miss MyMy Hair Essence Hair Serum for years! This is the second article in the past couple weeks that I've seen them mention the importance of serum. In one of my previous posts, I mentioned using serum with styling to achieve the long, straight look. I've been telling you all for years, with your curly hair, whether it's a wig or hair extensions, you'll want to smooth some serum through your wet hair. Comb it through thoroughly. Allow it to air dry UNDISTURBED if you can. If you can't, then blow dry using a diffuser. SCRUNCH those curls!

Avoid Over Touching
While your hair is drying, resist the temptation to run your fingers through. All that touching creates friction. Friction creates frizz! I know, it's hard to resist touching your lovely Miss MyMy hair ;-)

Periodic Deep Treatments
At least once every 4-6 weeks, give that hair a deep treatment. If it's a removable unit, Miss MyMy Spa dip is an excellent product! (soon available online) Simply add a small amount to some warm water in a basin, and soak your (already washed) unit for at least 30 minutes. If your unit is sewn in or glued on, you can apply a deep treatment, wrap hair in a warm wet towel, and cover with a plastic cap for at least 15 minutes.

When we at Miss MyMy ask whether you'll be needing any products, bear this in mind: you've just invested in your beautiful hair, whether a unit or extensions. Using the proper products to care for your unit only enhances your original investment. With proper care and maintenance, your unit will look beautiful and behave beautifully, for a much longer time!
