First of all, can we just give a round of applause because I know I am not the only one that smells hair when they arrive in the post and wow! The smell of the hair was soo nice I actually could not believe it. The hair was soft and is still soft. After giving it a test run for the week in the busy streets of London doing errands and even small house girl duties (hair sleeked back, giving them edges on fleek) I can definitely say it did it's thing. I received soo much nice comments from people too. It does not shed or matte either like most curls do especially at the back, once you come through it once it's like brand new. 10/10 for me, Houston! We have a winner.
