Sew-in Extensions
We all know what the hottest trend in hair is right now. Well, if you’re a male I don’t really expect you to know. If you know, then you know most of us on this campus are wearing it, but if you don’t know, it’s the method of a Sew-in weave. In todays time it’s the hottest thing around, everybody’s wearing it!
