Ah, the mighty sew-in is one of the go-to styles for natural and women that like minimal stress in their daily morning routine. I, for one do not appreciate spending like an hour on my hair even after prepping at night. Struggling and battling with your hair day in and day out. The stress-free solution: Sew-In. I know it is just amazing how far we have come from ironing our hair with ( real clothing  irons) and your mother/grandmother putting the hot comb on the stove and burning the mess out of your scalp. It just brings back so many memories.  F.Y.I  I’m only 21 but, my mother and aunt have told me all kinds of horror stories about hair, ick!

Sew-in’s come in the forms of tracks, lace front wigs, whole lace wigs, and even wigs with baby hair/natural hairline. I was looking up different brands such as Outre, Milkyway, Freetress, Sensationnel, and Pro 10. On the models they look so realistic and very versatile to withstand heat up to 400 degrees. You can curl, flip and twirl your way to the ideal hairstyle.

The ideal time to wear sew-in’s are in the winter if you have natural hair because the harsh winds are very drying. I can attest to the midwestern winters are just downright brutal. I am talking swirling snow, snow drifts, blizzards, and black ice. I will be getting a lace wig sew-in this winter to save my beautiful coif.

It is also very important that you take care of your sew-in. If you use a lot of hair spray that can ruin the hair. It clogs up the hair and makes it become clumpy. There are special washes for weaves (synthetic and human).

Here a few sew in’s I found:

Freetress Lace Front Natural Hairline (Style:Pace)

Freetress Natural Hairline Whole Lace (Style: Sapphire)

Freetress Lace Front Equal (Style: Showgirl)

Question: Would you ever consider getting a sew-in?
