I have a real love for TikTok. I have found so much on this app to enjoy. This tiktoker is so cool – find her on all social channels with the handle @AmandaUpNext.
I’ve learned a lot about wigs from this lady. She is so stylish and so entertaining. She also started the overnight “evaporated” Got2B gel trend – the one where people are setting the hairspray for a thicker consistency when applying lace wigs – that one. That SUPER viral trend, see her recipe here. The overnight consistency of the spray aids in wig adhesion for up to a week or two. I do not use this method much, myself, as I prefer glueless wigs, however, I do like it for my edges. I personally think that the end consistency of the product is somewhat similar to the SheBOMB lace putty – but easier to work with. Amandaupnext is super dope – she is also how I found out about SZC hair – where I found my beloved.
Even if you’re not into wigs, I think that she is worth checking out for the laughs and styling.
P.S. – I’ll have some BAE updates soon. Stay tuned.
During the height of the Curlsqueen craze a year or two ago, I bought several curlsqueen products (just for your knowledge – 2c/3a curly half wigs, clipins and some straight halfwigs) When the products arrive, and you pull them out of the packaging, the hair is sooooo gorgeous! Stunning even. I thought to myself – trying to grow my hair back to waist length would be so easy!
Curlsqueen is my first true foray into hair extensions. If I can remodel my home, I can surely learn how to attach hair to my head, and make it seamless.
I was, however, very badly disappointed. After a few months of wear, the hair tangles, it no longer has body or flow, and just does not reflect the amount of money spent. Human hair lasts for forever. I know that there are not many people that feel this way online about Curlsqueen, but I do. What a waste of money. After attempting to coordinate returns or new products with the company, one gets fed up (they did attempt to rectify things a bit by sending me a free halfwig for the points status I possessed, but that one quickly tangled up as well). Is there a brand with curls just as beautiful that does not tangle? I have yet to find them. Most companies charge an arm and a leg for the length I need and the quality. I’m thinking that I’m going to have to go with a no name brand to get my new wigs made – and they will be to my specifications.
Curlsqueen is a big no for me.
Take a look at some of the others online experiencing similar issues with them. Why is this happening only to the looser textures? Very strange. As it is human hair, the hair should not tangle. Let’s be honest, if this is Cambodian/Indian hair, it would tangle on the heads of those selling the hair just as badly. Hair being attached to a weft does not mean that the hair should now tangle.

As Curlsqueen is China based, it is hard to get returns made without it costing as much as the product did! ah! I do think that the straight textures are nice – they do not tangle or shed. It is really important for products to be and perform at the level advertised and promised.
What did I do with the tangled weave? I’ve chosen to cut the hair off the weft and use the very expensive hair as bulk hair. It will be used in my twists and braids. It has been so costly.
Can you believe that those are the only negative reviews that I can find this AM?Wow. I do not think that the 2c is as popular as the coarser textures and that might be the reason that there are few updates on the loose textures online.
