Sunny's Girl Toolkit: A List of Our Fave Products for Maintaining Healthy Hair & Perfect Weaves

FHI Runway...A Miracle in the form of a Flat Iron

While we mostly sell hair & wigs, we always get requests for more information on our favorite products and tools for maintaining healthy hair and retaining Indian Hair. 

The problem is that the products we recommend run the gamut from Brazilian Keratin Treatments to Virgin Coconut Oil.  So instead of running crazy around town looking for these products, we've created an Amazon Store with links to where to buy the Sunny's Girl Toolkit on Amazon.com

Tell us what you think... Are we missing anything?

And the Emmy for Best Hair goes to.... Sofia Vergara

As a huge Modern Family Fan...we must declare that not only is Sofia Vergara part of the best comedy on tv...but arguably the best hair on television. 

To recreate Ms. Vergara's hair we'd suggest 8 ounces of Indian Hair Natural Wave in 22"  straightened with a tourmaline flat iron and curled with a 1 1/2"  curling iron. 

Hair Extension Tip: Don't cut the tracks

If you love your Indian Hair and want to keep reusing it here's one small money saving tip:  Don't cut the tracks or better yet before you sit in your stylist chair explain to them that you plan on reusing your hair extensions and you would like them to not cut the tracks.

Instead have them fold over the track when starting a new row of hair extensions. This will achieve two things:
1.  Less Shedding:  Every time when you cut the track you have shedding from the seams
2.  Easy to reuse:  When it's time to take out your hair extensions it will be much easier to wash, condition and put right back in

Change your Hair!

We all want to try the edgy new hairstyles all the celebrities are wearing, lucky for them they have their stylists on call for maintenance as well as they can easily change up their looks.

However, we've come up with a couple tips and tricks you can try to change your life without changing your own hair.

For short edgy cuts:
Use Sensationnel 27 pieces to create a custom wig, the hair is short so you won't have much cutting to do and you can add color to front like our girl Rihanna.
You could also just purchase a Fashion wig, they are really affordable; one of our favorites at Sunny's is Bobbi Boss' Vivi.

For Asymetrical Cuts/Bobs:
If you want something more long term , try sewing in more affordable hair like Bohyme Textured Smooth or Bohyme Silky Straight and have your stylist use a closure piece so that none of your hair is out- that way you can cut and use as much heat and product without any damage to your own hair.

 If you're just trying to have fun for one night try a fashion wig, they are low cost, low maintenance and really fun to just let loose in.

For Long Lengths or  Color:
Experiment with brands like Bohyme, Indi Remy, Black Diamond or Sensationel Goddess since they are slightly more affordable than Indian hair. If you are a little gun shy you can always use clip in extensions to flirt with longer hair before making the commitment.

Before you make the commitment and change your own hair permanently, try these out and if you don't like it then you can take it out and your own hair will be the way you had it! But if you do like it, preserve your hair and enjoy your new look.....

Change your life and change the hair that you paid for!!

Hair Extension Tip: Nylon Coated Thread vs. Cotton Thread

 

We love nylon coated or wax coated thread for sew in extensions.  The thread is much thinner and strong than traditional cotton thread.  This ensures that you won't have any tracks that loosen over time.   We love it love it!  Make sure to ask your stylist if she is using wax coated or cotton thread!
