Gogo Curl Fretless Crochet braids |
I installed this set on Jan 5. I took out my last set due to the braids being loose underneath. I really liked how it looked, but due to the bad foundation, the style had to be taken down prematurely.

Me cutting the braids out. |
I got Lola to braid my hair. She is African so you know she did a good job!
|
It hurt! I'm joking, It did not hurt...that much. |
|
Finished braids. I like to have my "baby hair" left out to prevent hairline breakage. |

Next I installed the hair. It is called GoGo Curl by Freetress.

Day 1 |
|
Day 3 |
I have very mixed feelings about this hair. I think it is beautiful. On the other hand I had some serious problems with it. One problem I had was the knots at the bas of my hair coming loose.
|
Loose knots. |
I tried to double and triple knot, tie it down, I tried several methods. The hair is too loose to knot effectively. I saw online that some people used spritz or glue to keep the knots in place. Maybe I will try that next time. Everyday I had to tighten up loosed knots. Eventually the hair became so tangled that I did not even need to tighten the knots anymore.
Which leads to my second issue with the hair. It tangles to easily. Now, I am a get up and go type person. I did not sleep with a satin scarf over this. I did not brush it or comb it, or even wash it. It is a weave so I feel it should be low maintence. After the third week I had to cut off chunks of the hair.

Week One |
|
Week Two |
As you can see by week two the hair looked less fuller because some of it was matted and knotted. Week Three it looked a total hot mess and I took it down.
Would I buy Gogo Curl again? Nope. But, it was cute while it lasted.
so pretty. it looks nice on you.

Could the tangling be due tothe knots coming out.
