I have been ordering from one of the most reputable hair system makers for years. A problem I've run into is that my bio hair is very wavy and the systems I get always end up straight, creating some blending issues. You're probably thinking - just order it with some extra waviness! Yes but...
I do order with waviness, but I order a blonde system and dye it dark brown myself. By the time I am done coloring it, combing the hair color through, washing it, etc. it barely has any wave left in it. It feels like it just returns to its natural state (what I assume to be straight/processed indian hair). It feels like this is unavoidable if I want to keep coloring my own systems. I understand one of the options is to just not color my own, but I find that I can get a much more realistic outcome when I do color my own. Aside from giving up, here are my questions/hopes:
1) Does anyone out there actually sell naturally wavy Euro hair instead of straight Indian hair? I am willing to pay more. I'd rather just have the system maker source the wavy Euro hair, as it feels too complex to try to buy hair myself and send it to the hair system maker.
2) Maybe the vendor I am using just doesn't do this well. Has anyone out there gotten a curly/wavy system that has retained its curls even after coloring it themselves?
3) Perming/add curl myself is not an option I prefer, as I found it fries the hair a bit and causes all kinds of knots in it. But I guess that is a last resort.
Anyone that can help at all?
