Weave-a-licious

So the doctors are still trying to figure out if I truly have Alopecia or if something else is going on.  In the mean time, it was getting harder and harder for me to conceal the bald/thin spots so I opted for a full weave.  I used to rock weaves when I had a relaxer, but hadn't really considered getting one once I was natural, until now.

I found a salon in the DC area that specializes in weaves for women with scalp and hair issues.  Marcella Ellis hair salon is located in Greenbelt, MD and was worth the money and the drive!  I will definitely be going back.  Her staff was gentle with my hair and put me at ease.

When I used to get weaves, I ordered my hair from Adorable Hair-Do, but I didn't have enough advance notice this time (they are located in NYC and they actually overnight the hair to you).  I'm actually glad that I didn't, because the salon had virgin Indian Remy hair that I absolutely love!  It is very good quality and I will be able to use it multiple times, just like the hair from Adorable.
