I am not a weave person nor am I an aliexpress.com fanatic but I was a bit fed up with dealing with my hair. I was in need in such a break so I decided "what the heck! why not a weave?" Counting this time its the 2nd time I have put in a weave in my 21 years of life. I didnt want to go for those well known vendors like Princesshairshop or Magic Hair Company (After my last experience I would never again) because it would be too expensive for me because I get paid in XCD dollar with a conversion rate of 2.7169=1 USD.
Since I seen aliexpress around already I decided to do more research on deciding what vendor I would choose. I spent hours on youtube looking at hair reviews and blog post to get feedback from other ladies. Eventually I settled on this vendor : 7a Queen Store Store Here. The reviews looked good, its rated 3 diamonds with 96.8 positive feedback rating, and was affordable compared to other vendors. Sounds good right? Well I was completely wrong. Just sit back and let me to tell u about my exprience.
7A QUEEN HAIR
Let me continue to say I paid $58USD for this hair so thats like $158 converted to my currency then paid $50 to clear at customs and still paid $80 to install. I got the discounted price because I knew the girl. So that $288 .. May not seem a lot to you but it is to me for someone who, doesn't work for much, has bills to pay and keep saving to pay for the exorbitant college fees I have to bare soon enough. Direct Link to hairThe Good:
Hair didn't take long to arrive, it was pretty at first sight, and when washed it didn't run and it bounced back. It had a few red and green strands in it. It had little shedding, no tangling at first.How it looked like day 2. I had curled it with my Remmington curling wand. I have to admit it hold a curl beautifully
The Bad:
By mid week 2 then the hair started shedding ridiculously but I didn't pay it any attention. Week 3 now was when I just angry because the hair was just out of control. It was matting up, very tangled, even more shedding. If I combed, sometimes when the comb would manage to actually go through the hair, the hair not only would there chunk of hair in the comb or brushed but behind of me there were several strands of hair on the floor. This is how the hair looked
All Matted |
Knots and tangles for days |
Another knot..Sigh |
After this I thought maybe a cowash would help. I took to my trusty ORS Replenishing Conditioner. That lasted about a day because it went back to the pictures above. Then I thought of the idea of flat ironing because it being curly- its natural state- was doing no good. Imagine that eh?
Well it worked the hair behaved, no overwhelming shedding and tangles although they were some. That lasted about 6-7 days though.. After that all hell of this hair broke loose.
The Extremely Bad:
I couldn't take it any longer and decided to take it to the seller. I took pictures and sent them to the seller. I was in contact with someone called Obama lee . This is a screen grab of our conversation
Everything was going well until it was actually time to give me my refund. Now they are basically trying to bribe me. Saying if to give rating to get my refund. Are these people serious? I would never buy from thus vendor again and neither should you. Please be CAUTION.
We have been communicating since March 17th and no refund and its now the 28th. Don't buy from this vendor! I wouldn't ever again and you shouldn't either. I don't honestly believe that all the vendors on Aliexpress are like this but this is how they were with me. I am just sharing my experience and it was awful. The wanted a 5 star rating well they got a rating but just not 5 star.
