Long Lasting Crochet Braids | Water Wave Review

[@MuvaLo]

I've been wearing this hair for over 9 years, it's super easy to take care of. Once it tangles, I just snip of the tangly pieces. I wash it and add mousse after a while and it keeps the style looking better. The older it is, the better it looks. Very pretty on you. 😊

[@AmberSymone]

Thank you so much love and I'm glad to hear your feedback

How do you keep it from frizzing? I have had this hair for a week or so and it almost matted. I wear a bonnet at night. What ma I doing wrong? Lol!

[@MuvaLo]

T.B. Lewis hey love, a little water and mousse can help. Not too much tho, if all else fails clip off the fuzzies. I don't use a bonnet, my head itches too much at night lol, I put mine in a pineapple and wrap a scarf around my perimeter so my edges are laid in the am. Hope this helps 😘

[@tonyab.l.7101]

Thank you so much, Lauren!!! :-)

[@naturalcandigirl]

Water wave was my first experience with crochet braida 6 years ago. It is still my fave go-to curl pattern. I really LOVE it! I never had any problens. It looks great on you!

[@AmberSymone]

Thank you love!

[@lavsmal9372]

Love that hair. .... also the model model crochet is a awesome brand..... I can wash it in the shower. ... and the hair looks the same. .... I keep mine in for 3 months

[@vivveene]

@Lav Smal: are you serious, wow.

[@cococookie8015]

it looks so natural..i have the same here also 4 packs. I'm going to do it exactly like this ...looks perfect...

[@AmberSymone]

thank you, I hope it works out for you

[@catrinahuffman2951]

I wear this hair very often. When it gets frizzy i cut off the ends. I have washed it and added styling mousse which kept the curl pattern. Also a little sheen. I too keep mind short.

[@AmberSymone]

thank you for the suggestion

Nooooo! I thought you were going to talk about whether you can swim in this hair or not. I'm trying to figure out the best crotchet hair to wear for next summer when I go to the beach. Do you think you could do a review on the best crotchet for summer and swimming?

[@AmberSymone]

This hair is amazing for swimming due to its kinkier texture, I have only tried about 3-4 different types of crochet braids and I have gotten all of them wet, but I do recommend this one when going swimming

[@mynameisv5034]

Perfect, thanks a bunch beautiful!

[@vanessastart07]

me too

[@tiffy9213]

This or Bohemian curl pattern, you can swim with. I've also went swimming in the free tress deep twist. It was fine afterwards but it's tangles a lot.

[@keonnaburns6025]

I'm wearing that hair now and doesn't tangle at all ! btw love the video 😘

[@mzmocha520]

Water Wave, specifically Free Tress brand, is my go-to crochet style. Even when its time to take it down I still get compliments on it. I start off longer for a couple weeks then start cutting it down to a bob style for the remainder of the style.

[@Shadow-runner939]

Lol...I say that all the time. “I bought it so it is my Hair!” Nice review! ❤️

[@HarmonyNae]

Well done💖 Waters wave is the best ..My first hair purchased years ago and still my favorite.

[@AmberSymone]

thank you

[@moureenmfite5979]

Harmony Nae Any suggestions for where to buy the hair online?

[@kebac3941]

I bought this hair and I was very scared to use it, so thanks for the review. Looks great!

[@moureenmfite5979]

Natasha C Any suggestions on where to buy it online?

[@AmberSymone]

Im glad I could help

[@chakeshajones4127]

Doing this to my hair tomorrow, I can't wait to see how it rurns out....

[@AmberSymone]

Awesome, Im sure you will love it

[@MegaReese10]

Love it, I always wanted to try this, but I wasn't sure of the pattern... but I love this!!!

[@AmberSymone]

thank you:)

[@moore2015]

Great review Amber! I am also wearing this hair and I agree it holds up very well!!

[@sweetk5184]

Which one you like better Freetress water wave or Bahamas curl?

[@shunemitchell1462]

so funny about the hair balls in the trash. I constantly do that at work.

[@moniquemzmodudek6923]

That hair I boom I use it for my single braids never tangled lasted months and it not expensive girl yes love this hair

[@curlyisconfident]

Did you cut the hair before it was installed? Or cut after the instillation? How did you get that shape? Very cute

[@AmberSymone]

I cut the hair after the installation

[@lswilson3429]

I have this hair in now....can't remember by who though. This hair has been a nightmare, it started getting tangled several hours after being installed. Everyday I'm cutting....you know the amount of dead hair you have when you take down your braids after 6-8 weeks. I imagine that every morning. It's a mess. I've tried water and mouse. Nothing is working. I'm thinking about taking it DOWN....it'll be one week tomorrow since It got it done.

[@schenellesingh2427]

I'm loving your eye makeup!

[@salgreene3103]

Great job Amber. I will try it. You look great.

[@nikkib6172]

Wow, I can't believe you posted this video today, and I just happened to stumble across it! I'm glad I did though. I love how this hair looks on you. Do you have a video of when you initially got it installed? I've had this hair a couple of times and I don't think mine looked as natural.

[@AmberSymone]

Hi, unfortunately I did not make an initial review, but thank you:)

[@andre0909able]

Hi Amber, First I want to say this style and hair looks very pretty on you! Second I just purchased some of this hair and I want to achieve a style like yours did you cut it any once you put it in and what braiding pattern did you use?

[@AmberSymone]

Thank you and my braiding pattern consisted of braids going straight back on the top of my head then criss cross in the back. Also, I cut the hair after I installed it, I hope it helped

[@glw5166]

Absolutely gorgeous Amber!

[@AmberSymone]

thank you love!

[@Oz-vt8ot]

Hey! Did you pull the hair strands a part or just leave it as it came in the pack?

[@AmberSymone]

I pulled the hair strands a part as the hair was installed!

[@keshagavin7224]

Amber Symone how many times did you separate the strands during install

[@mzmocha520]

I do 3-4 times per strand bundle. Any less than that is too thick and may slip out. .

[@MegaReese10]

I love it, so you cut the hair in half or did you just install it the length it was and then cut it?

[@AmberSymone]

I cut the hair after the installation

[@sashairoberts425]

Can i go in the pool with this hair? will i be able to get it wet, or you don't recommend it?

[@AmberSymone]

Yes, definitely! Just make sure to rinse your hair afterwards

[@Oceanpurples]

Your hair looks great

[@dangelageason941]

you are to pretty😍😄 I'm getting my hair done with this hair as well. what's the best brand of mousse to use. i heard you say the longer it is the more tangled i was like 😣 because i love 18 to 24inch hair maybe i should do 16inch. OH if i want to be versatile and switch up my part should i get my braid pattern straight back🤔

[@cococookie8015]

it worked out perfectly. I did it myself; with a side part ..Love it :-)

[@AmberSymone]

Im glad to hear this!

[@Maker4Life144]

face is gorgeous! Good make-up too!

[@cristle4688]

IS IT OK IF I GO IN THE POOL WITH THIS HAIR? I'M LEARNING TO SWIM BUT I REALLY WANT TO GET THIS CROCHET

[@katishachancy9713]

I get this hair tomorrow I got it also and 1B and it's 12 inches so it'll be about the same style yours would be I would like a side part and I just want to know how to keep the frizz from coming and showing so so much yours doesn't show a lot which is great and I want to know if I got a bonnet to wrap it up at night would that keep the curls tight

[@AmberSymone]

Hey love, you can definitely use a bonnet but mostly at night i just put my hair in a pineapple. Also, I would often cut the frizz or lay it down with conditioner

[@cierra15beckett]

Does this hair have a high shine? Also is the 1b closer to black or brown. Is it a natural color

[@AmberSymone]

the 1b is closer to black, and it definitely is a natural color... the shine is not too much

[@nkikokey-osullivan8615]

This looks amazing. Did you separate the curls when it was installed?

[@MsSandounga]

What brand you prefer xpression or freetress or model model. I'm having a hard time picking a brand

[@AmberSymone]

I honestly can't choose because I've only tried xpression braiding hair, freetress crochet hair, and model model wigs, sorry. I hope to try other hair to help you in the future

[@sylviaonthego9549]

You look gorgeous

[@tiawilliams8625]

Hi Amber. What brand of hair is that you used?

[@shadr1138]

Tia Williams freetress in the water wave syle :)

[@clownshoes1100]

I'm going on a cruise. can I get this hair wet, ocean or pool.

[@PWells23]

this is my favorite hair . if the ends frizz just snip them .easy !

[@AmberSymone]

thank you love!

[@harlemmocha5796]

Do you mind if I ask the type of braid pattern she used?

[@AmberSymone]

She braided the top of my hair straight back, and then did criss cross braids in the back. I hope this helped

[@tcrawford379]

Can you do a video of how to cut and shape it?

[@AmberSymone]

Hi, the next time I get crochet braids I will try to make a video on this process

[@moonlesslamb]

thanks for your honest review...

[@AmberSymone]

No problem, I'm glad you enjoyed

[@LaLa31089]

You actually look like Rachel true with that hair texture

[@AmberSymone]

She's gorgeous as well, thank you

[@beautifuldayqueen9057]

please please try beach curl!.by freetress

[@ebonniekins]

I have been rocking the freetress water wave and bobbi boss dual wave since May. ( Three installs as I change it out each month) It is my favorite and the colors I rock are 30 and 27 (in both freetress and bobbi boss) I use bobbi boss for a small portion of my blond as it is not shiny as the freetresss. I love this hair as it really is very manageable. I have gotten it wet (in the ocean) washed it, I work out 6 days a week and it has held up quite nicely. (Check out my instagram page nikkita713 for pictures. I am about to take it out next week to get ready for my next install ( #4) I just got complimented on it today and it will officially be a month old tomorrow. Everyone thinks it is my hair and like you said, it is because I paid for it! Go for it and rock some color! You may be surprised at how much you like it!

[@AmberSymone]

thank you for the wonderful recommendations and I am glad it worked for you also!

[@vuvusikwentu5469]

The next time I have crochet braids I will, thank you for the suggestion

[@CraftingWithTopaz]

Amber Symone Okay cool, thank you

[@90andrejn]

How many inches is the hair?

[@amberdelivered06]

Jennifer Andre 22' but she cut it.

[@msolivette]

Can you swim with this hairstyle?

[@AmberSymone]

You definitely can swim with this hairstyle

[@chandlerdunham8122]

What inch do you have in?

[@TheCutiepie2004]

I think the 22 inch, but it was trimmed for her

[@MorningSong8]

What lip color are you wearing?

[@AmberSymone]

I am wearing oyster girl lipglass by MAC

[@MorningSong8]

Thanks! It's very pretty on you.

[@exzondaross1569]

[@crdikee]

[@AmberSymone]

I believe I was wearing "oyster girl" lipglass by mac in this video

[@crdikee]

Amber Symone thank you!

[@Uniquaization]

+Amber Symone How come yours look sooooo much better than everyone else's lol

[@AmberSymone]

You'll have to ask my stylist 😭 I definitely will say I was hesitant on getting the hair installed due to the packaging, however I recommend separating the crochet hair as much as you can and cutting it to your desired shape

[@Uniquaization]

did your stylist separate the hair? @@AmberSymone

[@yirmeyahumea73]

is this 100% human hair??

[@TheCutiepie2004]

No I think it's synthetic
