STYLE ME: My Favourite HairStyle

in hive-120823 •  4 days ago 

INTRODUCTION

Hello everyone, greetings from me @destinedhanik from Nigeria to you all. It's a pleasure to be here and I'm contesting on my favorite hairstyle by @nsijoro. One of the things that makes one stand out and get noticed immediately is the hairstyle. Our hairstyle is part of our dressing and it can make people either come close to us or go far away from us. Just like we dress neat, our hairstyle, whether in braids or low cut should be neat. Everyone has a haircut which is their favourite so I will be talking about mine. Stay tuned.

MY CURRENT HAIRSTYLE

I am carrying a virgin hair, what this means is that I have not added any foreign product like relaxer to my hair and this also means that it's not all hairstyles I can do. Currently, I'm carrying natural twisting with my virgin hair. This particular hair doesn't really have a name but if one goes to the hairstylist and wants to identify the style, the person will just say virgin hair twisting.

PRICE OF MY CURRENT HAIRSTYLE

The price of making hair in my country, Nigeria differs. It depends on the type of hairstyle and the place one makes it. If you are adding any attachment like wool, thread, wevon etc, the least price you can pay is 5,000 naira that is equivalent to 16 steems. This is aside paying for the attachment you bought, this is only the price for the handwork.

Another style of hair is the virgin hairstyle. There is a difference between a relaxed hair and a virgin hair. Naturally, the African hair is very strong and stands, it doesn't falling like the American or European's own, so Africans add relaxer to make it fall, longer, softer and smooth. But the virgin hair is one that nothing has been added to it, so it stands, it's an afro and strong. Now, making this hair without any attachment added to it has its own price. The least that can be charged is 1,000 naira that is equivalent to the price of 3 steems.

The last hairstyle is the low haircut. For this one, it still is about a thousand naira, that is equivalent to the price of 3 steems, but after cutting it, one can spray it, maybe with gold colour. Everything after being done can go for about 5,000 naira, that is equivalent to the price of 16 steems.

This hair was made by my hairdresser. I have always had a particular hairdresser who makes my hair, I hate changing hair stylist so as to avoid things like my hair cutting, picking dandruff or lice in hair salon, etc. My hairdresser came to my house and made this hair for me. It didn't take up to 2 hours. This hairstyle makes me look my age. If I weave all back,I look younger and I look like my students but this hairstyle makes me look like the lady I am. The reason I like this hair so much is that
• It lasts. Even though it's my natural hair, I can carry it at least 3 weeks.

• It doesn't cut my hair at all, rather, this is one hairstyle that grows the hair very well and fast.

• One can change it inti different styles after one has made it.

• Finally, the older it gets, the finer it is.

HOW I CARE FOR MY HAIR

I care for my hair very well. Virgin hair cuts a lot if not we'll taken care of. So I try my best to wash my hair weekly, I also do protective hairstyles, that is hairstyles that doesn't cut the hair, with these hairstyles, I can still wash my hair with the hairstyle on, I apply hair creams a lot and I also use natural products on my hair like shea butter, clove water, rice water, etc. I try not to carry one hairstyle for two long and not to make Stylez that pull my hair too much.

PEOPLE'S VIEW ABOUT MY HAIRSTYLE

People comment on my hair a lot after making it. They always think I have added an attachment to my hair not knowing it is my natural hair. They always think it is kinky I added because of how full my hair is. My students always tell me they love my hair even my colleagues. Tho my hair is elastic, it shrinks when it comes in contact with air and water, but even with that, it still stands out as it is a full hair.

I'll like to call on @ninapenda

You try to maintain your virgin hair. Virgin hair caring carries a lot of trouble like the cutting, coming and so on. Making it just as you do will help the hair to grow well, giving you the natural good looking.

@bela90, yes, you are correct. Virgin hair isn't easy to carry
