First of all, let me say that I am a professor by trade so I do a lot of research. It's a part of my nature and job. Plus, I have been wearing all types of weaves off and on for the last 12 years so I know a good job when I see it and I can always tell which stylist know what they are talking about. I met Valencia about a year ago on this board. I feel like I was meant to meet her. I have had three fusions and Valencia's performance has been the best by a landslide. Her personality matches her work -- profession and unique. This summer I desperately searched for her contact information because I had to get back to her. After missing each other all summer, I was at her location this past Saturday to get my hair done. Due to the time that I needed to get it done, Valencia referred me to her assistant. I didn't have a problem with the change because I trust Valencia. I was more than pleased!!! I can say this with confidence... as long as I wear weaves, Valencia and her assistant will probably be the only people that I allow to do my hair. As long as they are in business, I will be a faithful customer. She has grown by leaps and bounds in less than a year and surrounded herself with some very knowledgeable and competent people. Both have gained my loyalty and trust. This is from someone that has traveled to various states to get her hair done. I'm glad that I found someone that is 1 1/2 hour away.

Hi, I use to have slipping and shedding after a month, which is why I almost gave up on the strand by strand. However, I tried it with different people and found you have to work at what is right for your hair. Based on your experience, have you had problems with your bonds if you used any of the following products: Cream of Nature Shampoo Infusion conditiioner (original) Aveda products Mizani products Aphogee products Organics leave in liquid mayonnaise Surge products (woojee cream and hair revitalizer) I have found that these products help my natural thin hair grow. I hope they can be used with this weave technique.
