Hey YouTube family. It's ya girl Lia back again with another video.
And today's video as you can see from the title is just another crochet hair review
video. And today's crochet hair as you also saw in the title is the Lulutress
Island Twist hair 18 inches and I have it in two different colors. I have in the
color 4 and I have it in the color 30. Now if you're not familiar with my
crochet hair review series I take my time with these hairs. This is not just
a first impressions I installed the hair I love it and I haven't tested it
out. Oh no no no I come on here and I show you my first day thoughts of
a crochet hair. Showing you how it looks the very first day that I install
it. How long it took? How long the hair actually is when you first install it?
Did I split it? How many knots I had to do with the hair and overall my first day
thoughts with the hair. Then I come on here with my first week thoughts on the
hair showing you how the hair looks in one week. Did it go south in a week? Is
there any issues that I'm seeing with the hair in one week? Did I have to
mousse it? What I had to do in terms of nighttime routine and all of that. Then I
come on here with my final week's thoughts of the hair. No matter how long I
wear it. Whether it's four weeks, five weeks, six weeks. However long I'm able to get a
wear out of the hair I show you how it looks on that very last day. Meaning the
day I'm going to take the hair out. I show you how it looks on the last day.
I also tell you what my overall thoughts are on the hair. Whether I recommend the
hair. Whether I think you should purchase it. Whether I think it's water friendly.
Activewear friendly. Whether it's high maintenance. Low maintenance. I just bring you all
the true tea on these hairs. Now if that's something that excites you just keep
watching to see my first day thoughts on this Lulutres Island twist hair. A
few moments later. So now coming on here for my first day thoughts on this Lulutress
Island twist hair. Now this is what it looks like very first day. Like I said
in the intro I have the color 4 as well as the color 30 installed. So this is kind
of what it looks like. 4 kind of that natural four-ish color. 30 is very bright.
Didn't realize it was gonna be that bright I might have not installed it but
we'll get into that in a quick second. But this is what it looks like. It was 18
inches as I said I cut a little bit of it for evenness but overall this is kind
of what it will look like if you freshly install the hair.
Now of course I'm going to cut the hair but I like to come on here on my first day
and show you how it looks so you have an overall idea of what the hair looks like
kind of in its natural state. So I'll do it 360 so you can kind of see how the
hair looks all throughout. Don't mind the back cause it will be some jankyness
going on but I have forewarned you. Now if any of you guys saw my Lulutress
deep wave hair you guys know at the time I bought deep wave I bought four other
oh no three other Lulutress hairs at the same time. I was just on a spree. I
just I was just seeing it it was on sale I got it from GenbeautyNY that's
where I bought this hair from. Where I bought all my Lulutress hairs
from. They were having like a 30% off $30 off sale so I bought three packs of the
island twist in the color 4. I bought 2 packs of it in the color 30. Now I like
the color 4. It's very much so true to life color 4 although it doesn't blend
that well with my roots. And that's a little. It's it's true to life 4. A lot
of 4's that I buy aren't true to life 4's. Sometimes they look more so a
two-ish color and I'm like ok good but this is the true to life 4. Which isn't
a bad thing. I like things to be the way they say they're gonna be. So if you have
a real 4 color this will blend well. If not I think looking back hindsight I
probably would have got this hair in a two just so it blends a little bit
better with my roots. The 30 color is also a very bright 30 color. It's also
true to life 30 ish color. I wish I had put it in a little bit more sporadically
right now it kind of looks like it's in the under part and my front is all that
4. And if you kind of do a little you know you can do a peekaboo and get that
30. Now with the install of this hair probably goes without saying all
straight backs. All straight back braids that's how my braid pattern is in
pretty much 95% of all the installs on my channel. Now this hair looking at the
model on the back I wasn't impressed. When I got this hair in the mail I was
looking at her and it looks very syntheticy. It looks very Barbie doll
Mattel everything about it just look like Uh. And I was trying to pick. I was
really probably gonna have beach curl in my hair if it wasn't for my inner
thoughts being like no see what you can do with this hair. So I never really
watched anybody's reviews tutorials of hairs but I needed to kind of have a
gauge of what to do best with this hair and I looked up Beauty Can Braid. If you
guys aren't familiar her you need to be. She does some amazing
crochet hair installs. She installed this hair. She's the only other person
that I've seen try this hair at this point as I'm reviewing this hair and she
installed this hair and what she did in it she split the hair two times in the
back four times in the front. So meaning this is the hair. This is how it comes
directly out of the pack. This is exactly how it looks. If you guys want to have
idea and of course you can see it looks a little different than it kind of looks
in my hair and that's because I split the hair. So this is what I mean by
splitting it and so you're left with these two strings right here. And so this
is how I install this hair. So as I said Beautycanbraid split the hair one time
in the back two times in the front. So you're left with four pieces in the
front and then two pieces in the back. I only split the hair one time so I had
two separate strands for each. Just because of simple laziness that I did
not split the hair more than I guess she's like she did. With that method you
kind of do use less hair. In the deep wave hair video I use all five packs I
believe of that Lulutress deep wave. And this the two packs that I showed you
that I held up are all that I have left. So I'd say I used about four packs total
because I have half of the 30 left and I have about half of the 4 left. So I
think in total use 4 packs but I say on the safe side probably be good with 5
packs. I did split this hair. So if you installed it yourself and it doesn't
look the same that's because I did go head and split the hair before I
installed it. Also in terms of knotting. Knotting this hair was probably about
three times. Three to four. I think beautycanbraid said she knotted this hair about
four to five times in her video. If you guys want to see her install just again
check it out because she does a beautiful job installing. I just recently
got hip to her channel within like four last four months. I'm just addicted to
how she installs some hair. I'm like dang girl you be braiding some hair. Also
another thing she did in her video she put some mousse through the hair. She put
a lot of mousse. I need to buy the mousse that she was talking about too cuz you
guys tell me you guys like the mousses I try but I like the mousse that she
tried because it was very much so foaming. And she just went ham and so
that's what I did yesterday. I just using boost I'm not even gonna show the
brand of this mess because I don't care about it that much it's just all I had
right now I'm gonna go out to the store today and buy whatever mousse you've had
in that video I can't remember what it is but I'm gonna go back watch that and
buy that mousse because she went ham she said that's good for taming this
hair because it can be very big so last night as soon as I saw this hair
I sprayed this on and kind of break it through and when I say I really went I
just would like just don't go all the way through and raked my hands through
it I think that also works good for you know bringing out some of the hair some
of the hair that didn't get crocheted right or getting get crocheted
incorrectly you can pull on it now I'm not pulling any hair right now because I
did this last night but if you're doing this first install just break your hand
through it and it will pull out some of the hair and also will tame it down so
she said that this is good for taming and so I was like alright girl porn out
listen let's go tame this hair overall last night all I did was pineapple to
hear and witness sleep now it was very heavy but I think it's because it was
all at the top of my head but when I tell you last night it was kind of heavy
but this is a lot of hair and I do plan on cutting it fairly soon so the next
time you guys see me with this hair it will not be at this length but overall
first day thoughts um I think it's giving me what is it giving it is giving
me a you know i'll any kind of a vibe is reminding me very much so of the
sensational island twist now i think about it oh no it was sensational island
curl wait a minute as I'm filming this successional makes
the blue tres brand it's this just island curl in a different you know what
let me not get into it but it does remind me of the island curl hair by
sensational I think Island curl was 12 inches of
course his hair is 18 inches I'm now more so an advocate for shorter hair so
of course this is very much so you can't even get in the full hair and camera
right now it's a lot of hair but I do plan on cutting this hair so next time
you guys see me in my one week's bosses here will be drastically different but
catch that when you guys watch my one week
review coming up right now one week later so now your girl is coming down
here for my first week thoughts on this Lulu tres island twist hair and I'm in
the process right now of editing my Amazon wave velvet wave by main concept
hair video right now and I'm laughing at myself because in my first week and my
first day was raving about it and then it just took that's her and that final
week's thought so I decided going forward I'll probably make my first week
thoughts very short because I've realized the first day and the last day
are pretty much the only days that really really matter the really days
that you want to see the hair and the first week I want to structure it so I
just talked about maintenance you guys let me know down below if that works
well for you if I just keep the first week very short so as to not shoot
myself in the foot and come on here you know weeks later uh-oh I might have been
wrong you guys so I will make this very brief and I will keep my first week
thoughts only to maintenance and how I feel about the Hara in a week and I say
this because I love this hair before I turn on this camera I was going to turn
and say you know I adore this hair to date probably my favorite curly style
you guys know I've tried the ultra kinky curly and the sensational island curl
hair out of those two this hair takes the cake now I'm gonna try to keep my
excitement down because again I could come back three weeks later there'd be a
whole different vibe be a whole different video so I'm gonna keep it
keep it at a minimum keep my excitement at bay but I have to say I have enjoyed
the maintenance on this here because I'm lazy I'm lazy I admit it I'm a minute
I'm lazy only because I'm so busy so the last thing I want to worry about is my
hair and this hair has allowed me to do that it has allowed me to be kind of
hands-off when I say I have literally just pineapple this hair at night so
putting it up at the top of my head put my scarf on I'm waking up in the morning
that's all I did a product has not touched my hair until last night so last
night's Friday night I was moussing this hair while watching TV and separating
because I knew I was gonna wake up this morning and film but and I wanted the
hair to be as detangle as possible but truly didn't I let a product touch this
hair in the last week other than last night and detangling it
was such a breeze it was not a hassle I didn't have like oh my god is so hard
it's so hard to get the hairs to detached no had no issues detangling it
now again everything I say has been within this first week we will see mom
going on colleges next week I'm going to the best I would say HBCU I know I
didn't go to this HBCU but I'm gonna spend the entirety of next week
college recruiting out one of the best HBCUs in this state I won't even say the
name because they're gonna be people debating it in the comments but I am
going there I'll need a hair that can last me all day they don't look good on
campus and I don't look good and be low-maintenance at night when I'm
probably just ready to ko at night then the next week I'm gonna go see some more
campuses so I have a busy couple of weeks and I'm hoping that his hair looks
good through out there but you guys will see how I feel about this hair and my
final week's thoughts coming up all right now lay down so now your girl is
back for my final thoughts on this a Lulu tres island curl hair now it has
been three weeks with this hair and I know I said in a recent video that I was
going to try to do four weeks or more with the majority of my hairs upcoming
but when you've got an itch October is right around the corner and I am ready
to try something new and I feel like three weeks is enough time for me to
kind of bring you guys my overall thoughts I think I know how I feel about
this here and I don't need to wear any longer to kind of have my overall
thoughts on this here let me get up in camera to show you guys how it doesn't
look and three weeks of wear now I had the Goldilocks syndrome with the after a
kinky curly hair that hair was too hard with the sensational Island twist hair
that hair was too soft and they're sensational is the parent company of
Lulu trust so I don't know how they got it right with the Lulu trust but the
island curl is just running it's not too soft it's not too hard it's just perfect
look at the curls like when you have a too soft hair what I've realized was too
soft hairs is that texture doesn't stay the same throughout the wear of the hair
so if it's too soft it starts to frizz a little bit and then it comes to frizzy
to the point of you don't even know what the curl is anymore it's just a ball of
friends the curls are still intact and this is three weeks of wear with is here
such a natural texture now the one thing I would say be the drawback and it's a
drawback on me it's a really fun thing the company didn't do anything wrong in
this department but for me I should have gotten a natural color I should have got
the color of mine here especially because I leave my edges
out you guys know I'm all about edge preservation so I leave my edges out a
lot of times and my edges of course are at the dark I have about a 2-1 be type
of a hair color and this hair is a 4 you may not be able to tell indoors but when
you're outside you definitely can see the brightness of the fort come through
so it kind of looks a mich match and that's the one thing I would say I would
have gotten a two so it just looks super blendable super natural and it just
looks like it's growing out of your hair I look for people's feedback and a lot
of times outside I can't see but people are looking at I'm like it looks a
beautiful curl but you should have got it to match your hair better and then it
would just be phenomenal so that's one thing I would say now if you don't leave
any other edges out like me so you just braid up everything you can't really see
any of your real hair then perfect go with any of the colors but if you're
somebody who does leave something out you're looking for a little bit more
than ability I would say go with feet ombre colors they do have good ombre
colors or just get a solid color that matches their hair color so I'd have to
say this is probably the lowest maintenance here that I have tried in
the last seven eight months and I'm so thankful for that when I say low
maintenance though I mean literally you guys ask me all the time but what did
you do specifically I can't make a video on what I did for this hair specifically
simply because it would be a one-minute video I'll be the shortest video ever
gonna be a waste of my time to record waste of your time to watch all I did
was Musa say or what so we run my fingers through it and detangle the
curls and it's usually a Friday Saturday night so while I'm watching TV or I'm
doing something monotonous I'm just really going through putting mousse
through and separating out the curls that's all you really need to do and you
only need to do that once a week when I think once a week don't do it twice you
ain't gonna do it on Monday Wednesday just do it what day of the week and it
will work phenomenally I did it four times throughout my entire day of
wearing of this year I did at that very first thing I did it right before I film
my first week sauce I did in my second week and I did it right before coming on
here fulfilling my third week your thoughts on this hair so what I'm doing
Brunning mousse through put mousse throughout you can either mousse a
section or just put mousse in and then just go through out on detangle that's
what I do when I'm extremely lazy it's just mousse the whole thing detangle and
it's super simple and the Heritage it just doesn't attach itself you don't
have a big glob of here it's preventative a lot of the times because
this hair honestly didn't have a tangle issue but if you want to be perfect if
you want to wear this hair and maximize the time that you can wear this hair
just be proactive and detangle if you see some issues coming up and maybe you
do need to detangle a little bit more than I did but again I did not have an
issue with tangles with this here because I was proactive with detangling
my hair and I really needed a little maintenance hair especially with what
I've had coming up in these last couple weeks for the last couple weeks I've
been traveling a lot for work with college recruiting college recruiting
season is here so you're on campus and all that representing the company and
all that and I needed to hear that I'm overnight at hotels I just really can't
wake up in the morning we usually have to wake up at like 7 o'clock in the
morning to be on campus at like 8 a.m. for career fair so I don't have time in
the morning just to sit there and just come up with a style I really just need
to wake up take my hair out so what I do at night is I pineapple too here so just
pull it to the top like so I have my bun and I'll put my bonnet on in the morning
all I do is take it out of the pineapple style as needed and then I just edge put
my edges down and you really are good to go and also in the last week this
previous week we had hurricane Florence and I want to take a moment to step out
and say thank you guys so much for your outcry supporting hurricane Florence you
guys came through in the comments section of my video in the comments of
my IG and my snapchat DM is in my Instagram DMS even some of the guns
emailed me which is an amazing amazing so thank you guys so much for your
support doing that I never realized how great my friends are into all the
situations like this it hit the Caroline I really never get an opportunity to
thank you guys as much as I need to but you guys are an amazing group of people
out there I have amazing group of supporters out there and you guys were
just so much so vigilant and so much so checking on me I got ups almost daily
how is everything going so thank you guys for your support throughout that
but I say that today the last week has been a very brain meet in North Carolina
very rainy Florence came through and it was like okay we're here to stay rain
rains here and all that so when when it's a hurricane light rains the wind is
hitting you and the water is hitting you the umbrella ain't
doing anything so a lot of times I would just walk outside say forget it I'm
probably because somehow rain came above the Unreal Engine attack and I didn't
feel any kind of way with this crochet here I didn't feel like okay this here
is gonna look a hot mess afterwards I will walk out proudly and drinking rain
in this year and not feel any type of way and I say that to say this here is
very water friendly in my opinion I think you can go to the beach I think
you can go vacation I don't need to pacifically dip this here in water to
know that this here is gonna react well because I really truly got drenched and
so much rain over the past couple weeks that it isn't even funny and I felt in
no ways about especially me having a dog too
my dog just kept wanting to wander off every time it seems like during the peak
of rain is when she had to use the bathroom and I'm just outside just like
hotels in here get Dotel and I didn't feel any type of way cuz this air which
is continuously get drenched but I knew this here would stand out so this air
works extremely well above sea and under this sea and also I believe is what
activewear friendly I think if you wear it short kind of short and just kind of
pull it back when you work out you should be perfectly fine I would just
think you're probably gonna have to detangle it a little bit more and I
think that because people work out a lot they probably you want to wash their
hair a lot more than then the typical person would be this hair has a very
much so natural luster to it but I can see it may be losing its luster after
maybe of repeated washes so up until like three or four washes you may see a
little bit less luster to this hair and I would say only to that bring out your
braid sheet and spray to restore some of that luster or your Hawaiian silky I
could see that restoring some Western I talked about the luster of it it's not
shiny I don't even think I'm trying to think of how I felt about this year
their very first day I don't think I had an issue with shininess of this year
like I did with the free choice water way if you're trying to compare the free
transporter wave here or this year get this hair because the shininess of the
water wave goes away after a while a wearing but you have to wear that hair
out for a while you don't have to wear this hair out and it's not shiny it's
not a hair that you're like oh is that plastic okay Barbie doll hair not
feeling it especially if you separate it out separate the hair out as you're
installing like I showed you guys in my first day thought separate it out and
definitely doesn't have that shiny effect
so overall the thoughts do I recommend this hair I think after everything I
said it should be pretty clear that I overall recommend this hair very
inexpensive I looked on so online right before filming this this
here is anywhere between 3.97 cents in about five dollars and twenty-nine cents
is the most expensive I've seen this hair so you can get it they're very
affordable you don't need a lot of pack so this year I didn't use a lot of pecks
of this here I don't believe you would need any more than five six if you're
being very you know full boom boom boom but five packs is probably what you need
with this hair I think this hair also comes in a
variety of color so you have color options out there you're not very
eliminating your options now you guys let me know have you tried this hair let
me know your thoughts down below are you thinking of trying this hair have I
convinced you to try this here or there any other movie trust hairs out there
that you wouldn't want me to try so far I'm too two-and-oh on my love for Lulu
trust I tried deep boy if I really did like that hair this hair is definitely
better than the deep wave to me it's a different curls so they're not even in
the same curl family but overall I enjoyed my experience more with us here
but I do want to try the wet curly I do want to try the beach curl there's so
many curls that I want to try from Lulu trust but if there's anything
specifically you guys let me know down below in the comment section make sure
