I'm wondering does it have a bad smell after being in the ocean and do you need to wash it after? I'm always spraying hair refresher in mine because it seems to get that "outside" smell, even after being out for a few minutes.
Freetress Beach Curl is my favorite vacation hair…because of you❤. I’ve worn it to Florida, Mexico, Dubai and the Maldives. It always looks fabulous…very water friendly,
Hello Lia! I’ve been watching your channel for years. You are truly the G.O.A.T. of crochet braids😊. I just returned from Cancun rocking this Beach Curl and it was the best thing ever! Oh btw they do still make it in 18 inches. ❤
I absolutely love your "hair" reviews. You have transformed me into a crochet vixen. 😅 I used to love my sew-ins, but honey, I am a 0 maintenance girl. These videos are so helpful. Thank you from this 0 maintenance girl!❤❤
LOVE YOU LIA, if anybody asks me about good crochet hair I send them to your channel, I have been following you for years I have seen all of your videos and you are the G.O.A.T. for me, continue being GREAT
Hi Lia! I learned about the Harlem 125 Soft Dread from you a few months ago. It is the truth! I just returned from one week of scuba diving twice a day every day. The hair looks the same as when I installed it. Thank you for the great recommendations!
Hi Lia, thank you for this updated video. I’ll be going to Puerto Vallarta and plan to wear crotchet hair for the first time. Your videos are very informative. Your planner is AMAZING and got me to get my entire life.
Yes came at a great time. I have a wedding at the end of a vacation in Mexico. I'm in the wedding party and I need this hair to still look bomb after 6 days of water
I was looking for this video for vacation in July. You never disappoint. Thank you for your service. 😅😊❤. Seriously because of you, my last 4 vacations have been crochet braids and I always get compliments. Always! I refer them back to you.
Everything thing Lia is speaking is straight facts... I've been following her since 2019 and she hasn't steered me wrong! I live in the USVI and hair that I can swim in is a very big thing..
So glad I wash your video! I was going to try a half sew in but I couldn’t deny how fast crochet hair dries compare to human hair. Thank you ❤❤ for the hair recommendations
Thanks Lia! I'm gonna step out on faith and try this Beach Curl! I trust you and your Beach Curl looks so good and not too big..I'm not a real big hair girl so thanks. You look fabulous😊
Hi Lia, I got the Harlem Kima soft dreadlocks. I hope it’s a good install and not matting! Only got it because of your recommendation! Fingers crossed.. Thank you!
I tried that hair about 6 years ago myself but it was by freetress I didn't care to much for it ,I'm going to try it again I really love that hair and color on you thanks for the review🥰❤❤❤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hi Lia! This may be a silly question but after swimming in whatever kind of swimmable water wearing the beach curl, did you wash your hair with product after and did you have to detangle it?
Hi Lia. Great video. I’m about to get these install. What has been your maintenance? How often do you detangle? What do you use daily, weekly? How have you maintained it? Thanks in advance.
I've been looking for a good protective hairstyle in addition to my box braids I workout alot so needs to allow my scalp to breathe and be cleansed this looks perfect the only problem is I can't cornrow or braid to scalp will have to find other alternative to secure my hair down you're hair always looks so pretty Lia.
Hey Lia my friend does hair and she is doing my hair this way. My 1st time ever having my hair done any kind of way.... I just usually just have my hair highlighted or cut or whatever but the woman I had cut my hair. She messed it up and chopped it and I didn't want it like that. I was Just wanting it trimmed and layered and she mess it up. So my best friend is going to put this in my head to make my hair longer and I'm so excited for my first time ever having anything like this done and I love your videos and you're very beautiful woman
Hello Lia, I'm so happy to learn from your video. I'm a Hispanic, and my hair is thinning. I'm going to Bahamas cruise with my girlfriend. Girl, look, I'm doing no blow drying or anything. Going with the Amazon box braid, wish me luck so excited 😊 going to swim. 😂 keep doing what you do. Love it! Thank you!
How would u put it on natural locs hair. What style should I put my locs for this hairstyle. My hair little pass my shoulders but the back is not that long barely makes a ponytail
I love your content. I also loved seeing/recognizing you on an American Airlines flight I worked. You are just as beautiful in person. Thanks for the pic❤😊
Lia I stumbled across you in a sad search to find my usual hair like 3 or 4yrs ago. I absolutely love you!! Thank you so much❤ your reviews have saved me from bad purchases ❤❤❤
QQ - just watched your video on how to wash and maintain crochet hair. The products used were full size. Do you bring these with you on vacation? I ask because of tsa size rules or is this done once you’re home. Do you do a quick wash while on vacation with travel sizes?
Hi Lia I’m new to your channel and I really don’t like crochet hair but your rocking it and I’m going to start wearing it as a protective style. How many packs of hair did you buy?
Hi Lia! I love the look and texture of the freetress beach curl but I find that it gets tangled after a few days. What is your regimen for maintaining that particular hair? Also what products do you use for maintaining your hair underneath and edges?
hello Lia thank you for the vacation insight I needed this, but are you saying that these different hair styles will not tangled in the pool or beach water? I’m about to do several pool parties and vacations and really didn’t want to do braids because it takes so long and I feel like they’re braiding my brains if you know what I mean (tightness and my edges). please help
Thanks for your videos. You always mention on your install videos that you take the hair straight from the pack. Have you considered re-reviewing some of your favorite hairs but with a pre-soak/vinegar wash?
No, simply because there are so many hair I haven’t tried yet that I don’t think I’m in the re-try phase of my journey yet. I think deep twist and this hair are the only two I’ve retried in these last 7 years.
Are these hair human hair? Or mixed ? Or other. Just wondering. I’m new to crochet but its about to be my staple as I plan to take care of my hair , I believe this will work well for me and my daughter to as a protective hair style with no damage to our hair. I Look forward to watching more of your videos. This being the first one. Be well. ❤ here’s to healthy hair with minimal maintenance. Lol
Im trying not to retry hair I’ve already tried, especially if I liked it the first time around, just because there are no many hair I haven’t tried for a 1st time yet 😩😂

Hi there! I love your videos! Really like this review. Question, when you get the hair wet in pool, sea, etc. do you wash with shampoo or rinse under shower or let it air dry as is?
In another reply she said that she rinses her real hair after going in any type of water, shampoos the crochet hair, and blow dries it. Also, in each hair review she tells us how she maintained that specific hair and which product worked best for preventing tangles (usually Hawaiian Silky 14-in-1, etc)

@@LiaLavon thank you so much for replying. Gonna give the OG freetress bohemian braid a try. Thank you again. Wishing you nothing but continued success.

These are all water friendly FACTS. She hasn't ever steered me wrong. Fresh water, chlorine pool, nor salty ocean have anything in these .

3 1/2… I have a install video too th-cam.com/video/e6rWWmUeIwk/w-d-xo.html

I don’t really condition the crochet hair since it isn’t hair but I do rinse out my own hair after it comes in contact with water
Not about the hair, but you look beautiful. Glowing
