Hey YouTube! It's ya girl Lia back again with another video. Today's video if you
cannot tell from the title is a video about why I'm so passionate about
crochet hair over sew-ins. Now this is going to be a quick impromptu video cause I
get a lot of questions about people wondering why I prefer crochet hair
over sew-ins for beachwear, cruise wear, vacation wear and all that. So this video is going
to be very quickly telling you why me in my experiences with swimming with sew ins
versus me swimming with crochet hair. How I see the benefits of the crochet hair
over the sew-ins. Now first let me address the little elephant in the room. I was in
a car accident recently so I'm okay everything is okay with me body function
wise but I do have some bruising and I do have some scars on my body. So if you
guys see that. I didn't want to not. You guys are part of my family and my
YouTube family is very important to me. And so I still wanted to film because it
keeps my mind off of it. It was kind of traumatic for me and I did kind of get a
little bit of anxiety surrounding it but I still wanted to come on here and
film for you guys to distract me. You guys know I use YouTube as my outlet and
talking to you guys and talking through things with you guys really helps me
out. So yes just ignore this right now I don't also want to conceal or put makeup
over this because it is very fresh. So I do want these things to heal and I'm
just going to wear these like a badge of you know I'm still here type of a thing.
But yes so just addressing this really quickly before I get questions about
girl what happened. So now why I prefer crochet hair over sew-ins. If you guys have
been following me from the beginning I would have never known about crochet
hair. Never even thought to take a look at it if it were not for a beach trip I
took the last year. Before I had my channel. This was like June 2016. Early
June 2016 or mid June 2016 I went to the beach with my friends. We all went. My 4
good college friends. I was a sew-in Queen at this time. Like I would use my
Peruvian body wave hair and go everywhere with my Peruvian body wave.
That was it. I would have sew-in for upwards of you know seven eight months
out of the year and thought nothing of it. Because it was like you know its a sew-in.
It looks beautiful. I love my hair. I liked my straight
long hair because I am protecting my real hair being braided up. I just thought
this was the what it was. This is everything. I would do partial sew-in too. I
didn't. I've never been a fan of like full closure types sew-ins or anything
like that. I really liked the partial. So some of my hair being left out in the parting
space area and in the back so I can pull it up and stuff like that. So I've been
very much so a fan of that. And so we went to the beach. Imma put insert a
picture of me right now before I was you know I was stunting on my beach with my
long hair all of this. I was loving it. I was like yes honey. And then we were all
in the pool and I was like yeah I can get in the pool. I'm going to look fabulous. I'm going to look
amazing, I got in that pool and it was over for
my hair. I don't know why what made me think I was going to last the rest of
trip stepping in a pool. Because yea I went up to the room and I used the hair blow
dryer that they have in the room and I washed my hair and I thought I was gonna
be stunting. I'm gonna insert a picture of me standing beside my best friend who
had crochet hair in at the time. I had a sew-in in.
She had crochet hair in. She had the crochet FreeTress bohemian braid hair in. She
went swimming too. Probably more active than I was in the pool cause she's a
better swimmer than I am. So she was swimming. I was swimming. All of that. One
of our hair still look on point. And one of our hairs look tragic.
Can you guess whose hair is tragic. I didn't even want to take the picture. I
was done with photography after that. But they were like let's get a group shot
in. I was like okay . But my hair has been ruined for the remainder of the
trip. There was no coming back from it. And if I had I would've needed like 5
hours to come and get a whole look together.We went back to the room and we
were like okay we're going to get ready we're gonna get dressed and then we're
going to go to Broadway at the beach. We were at Myrtle Beach, And I was like okay
but I'm gonna need like 4 hours to get. They were like no you only got like 30. We only got
30 minutes times span. We got to get things together. So I only had a few
minutes to go from stepping out with the sew-in in and my hair soaking wet to washing
it. Blow drying it. Trying to Flatiron it as fast as I could. And that's one of the
things that really made me say okay well Sasha was in the bathroom for five
minutes. She went like. She rinsed her hair off. Fluffed it up. And was out the
door. So why why do I need a five hour routine when I'm at the beach. It's about
having fun when you're on a vacation. You don't want to worry about your hair.
That's the last thing you want to worry about. You want to have at
least the least amount of time worrying about your hair than anything. And I was
more concerned with my hair. I didn't take any more pictures. So having a sew-in
really ruined my beach trip. And having crochet hair in for my best friend was easy
peasy for her. Was no sweat off her back. She could role on and do what she needs
to do. And that's why I feel like crochet hair is much better option for swimming
than sew-ins are. You can easily easily make the transition from pool to
whatever you have to do next in a matter of 30 minutes. Where as is the sew-in. I
don't know if you guys use a curly-er sew-in . If you use a lace closure sew-in.
Then maybe maybe. I can only speak to somebody who has a partial and loves
partial sew- ins. But for me. Sew-in was just was not hitting it for me. And
especially when I went on my cruise. How my crochet hair came in handy for my
cruise and that's what happened. I went to the beach maybe a month before I
went on my cruise. And I saw my friend and I was like okay so what hair do you
have in. Okay so you have crochet hair in. Okay so that's what I need for my cruise.
And so I got my hair for my cruise and the thing about it why I really
recommend crochet hair for cruises. Is because when you're on a cruise and you
do your excursions or you have your days your port day. So whenever you go. For us
we went to Nassau Bahamas and Freeport Bahamas. We when we get off that ship we're
off the ship for maybe eight you know six to eight hours. And we're in of
course beachy town. So I'm going to of course want to swim. I want to be near
water. But say you step off that boat you get in water at 8 a.m.. You're not going
to see your room again until maybe you know 6 p.m. 7 p.m. at night. So you're
going to. You have a long window of time for your hair to be a hot mess if
you don't get crochet hair. That's what I. The way I look at it. So when I went to
Nassau we went to Atlantis. I was in the pool. You guys saw my photo of that I'll
insert it again. I was in the pool I was doing all this activewear stuff. Which I
feel like if I had some kind of like straight sew-in style wouldn't have
looked as good. Now I was able to get out the pool and still live my life in
Atlantis. Ride the slide to do everything that they have there at Atlantis and
then get back on the ship and be like okay so we're ready for dinner. Instead
of having to get back on the ship and doing all this maintenance to a hair. Of
course when I got back to the ship of course I rinsed the hair off and all
that. When you're on vacation you're on vacation.
It's about relaxation. It's about taking time for yourself and all that. The last
thing you need to worry about is your hair. Crochet hair for me like I say
and like I suggest to all of you guys. It is worth it a hundred percent for
trips. It's like I. You guys can tell I've had an experience with water
with a sew-in with straight hair. Doing my straight hair thing. And I've
had experience with my crochet hair and doing my crochet hair thing. Enjoyed the
crochet hair trip a lot more because I had a lot less worries about my hair. I
could do everything I wanted and didn't impede on me taking pictures after the
fact. I still went through the rest of the trip. My pictures still turned out
phenomenally. My was the same as it was when I stepped in the water as I
when I got out the water. Clearly that it was not the case with the sew-in. Hair
was on a different level. Never took a picture again
other than the group shot that everybody wanted. Because why wouldn't everybody
else want it. Their hairs were still on point. It was only my hair that looked a hot
tragic mess. So yeah I think that was the turning point for me.
And what really pretty much launched my channel pretty much. I think you know
having a phenomenal crochet hair that lasted and did some amazing things
really put me on point like okay this crochet hair thing is A1. This crochet
hair thing is legit. Let me let me see what this crochet hair game is about. So
yeah that was my mini storytime. My mini rant. My mini like answering you guys's
questions. Why I'm so crazily passionate about crochet hair.l It's because I had a
crappy sew-in hair experience at a beach. And I said never again and that's pretty
much it. If you guys have any questions. If you guys still love sew-ins tell me
what sew-in you guys wear to the beach. Hair you guys use if you use sew ins
and go to the beach and how your hair looks. Cause I'm coming from a place where
I love my straight Peruvian body wave was my sew-in hair of choice. That was it.
I love Peruvian body wave. Couldn't get me to try any other hair. I wasn't so
much into those Malaysian kind of really curly styles. I wasn't into those type
looks. I was really into my straight hair and clearly that was an epic fail for
beachwear. But yeah like I said make sure you comment. Make sure you like. Make sure
you follow me on instagram at lialavon9. Make sure you follow me on snapchat at
misstalia89. And i will see you in my next video. Thank you so much for
watching!
