Hey guys! How are you all doing this Quarantine period? I hope you're keeping yourself busy and entertained to avoid the stress and anxiety that this pandemic brings. I, myself, have been taking advantage of this period by ticking off one of my #QuarantineGoals and that is to look and feel healthy inside and out. I'm back in working out! It drives me crazy since I stopped working out for almost 3 years but "How will I ever achieve the body and shape that I once had before if I will not do anything?". It's really hard at first to go back and motivate myself but as I see the results coming little by little, I know I'm bound to achieve more of what I have expected if I work harder. This is an update of my 1 week workout routine. Let me update you my progress on the next coming days! 
Since I don't have a sauna jacket at home I use this jacket that I got from SHEIN. I actually didn't ordered it for workout purposes but rather to use it for styling my outfits. I love the colors in this jacket and how it instantly makes an outfit look sporty/ casually edgy or some sort of a street style. Using it for my everyday workout routine is just a plus which I'm very happy! You can get this jacket together with your other purchases from SHEIN for less than 15% when you use the code: 2Qshaira upon checkout. Coupon is valid from April 1- June 30.

Whether you wear a wig every day or just in special occasions, it eventually will get tangled or need maintenance. All wigs require special care to last longer. Curly wigs are especially difficult to take care of if you want to keep the original look of curl shape. Treat the wig like your own hair. This should be a good reminder that you should take super good care of it even if it's not attached to your head. If you are still a beginner when it comes to curly wigs, find a good routine for them.

Brushing
The first thing is to learn how to brush your curly wig correctly. Standard brushes or combs for your natural hair are something you should stay away from. Those brush bristles will cause frizz and damage your original curl pattern. And it's hard to restore your curls. You should go for wide-tooth combs for your curly wig. Or you can choose to finger comb curly hair so that the curls won't go away.

Detangling
As we said early, grab a wide-tooth comb to detangle your curly hair. Always start from the bottom and all the way to the top. If you start form the top of the hair, you'll definitely get stuck in the middle because of too many tangle knots on the bottom of the hair. And also do not pull your hair violently. You thought this would work but it will only lead to more tangled and matted hair. In worst case, you will end up cutting the tangles to save your curly hair. In that scenario, the hair curl shape will be incomplete too. If necessary, some conditioning spray will help while detangling.


Washing
Curly wigs, especially human hair wigs take a really long time to air dry, depending on the products that you use on it. How often should you wash your curly wig depends on your wearing frequency. If you do not wear it every single day, it should be fine to wash it at least once a week and not go longer than two weeks. If you are a type of person who wants it to always be tamed and curly, you might want to wash your wig maybe twice a week, maybe every two to three days. But it's not suggested to washing it every single day, because it definitely will not dry overnight.
If you want your wig to tamed and you don't want to wash it as frequently as twice a week, just get yourself a spray bottle or some type of refresher spray. Lightly spritz it on the parts that are really frizzy. And then comb through with a wide-tooth comb or just finger comb it. Do not put a whole lot of shampoo on curly hair because it will dry it out and you will have to deep conditioning. Also you'd better not put a lot of styling products or gel on the hair. If it's really dry, just spritz with water and a light leave-in again but no heavy creams, oils, or butters.

Restoring
What we love about curly Perruque Lace Wig is those bouncy curls. However, as you wear and wash it, it will lose the curl shape gradually. So once your is tangle-free, it's the best time to restore your curls. Use your fingers to twist each curl and let it bounce back into shape. If this doesn't work, try twisting the curls in the opposite way to see if the curls are back. If this fails too, you may need to turn to heat to restore your curls. But turning to heat is the final solution. After all the heat is going to damage the hair fiber to some degree.

If curly wig can be maintained correctly, it can last for a long time, which can saves a lot of money. It's not hard to take good care of your curly wig, but it requires patience and perseverance. This blog is to offer you some insights on curly wigs care. Hope you can find something useful. Comment below to share with us your curly wigs care tips.

There are two basic types of wigs that women can choose to wear: the wigs that are made from natural human hair and those that are made from synthetic fibers. Both varieties have obvious advantages human hair wigs can give you a very natural look while synthetic wigs are a lot easier on the budget.
However, it's not always that simple when you have to choose a wig for your own personal use. There are many other pros and cons to each option that you would need to consider carefully in order to end up with a hairpiece that is perfect for you.
One of the most important questions that you would need to answer is what are the benefits of human hair wigs? Some of these wigs are selling for a great deal more than synthetic wigs, sometimes even costing hundreds of dollars per piece. It is therefore natural for an interested buyer to wonder about what makes these wigs so expensive.
Well, as mentioned earlier, there is nothing better than a human hair wig if you are looking for a completely natural appearance. The hair feels soft and real because it is indeed real. You can style it any way you like and even dye it if you so choose. In other words, you can treat it just like you would your own hair. Of course, it is still not recommended that you subject a wig, whether it is made from hair or otherwise, to excessive styling and dyeing because it can sustain irreparable damage over time.


But what are the benefits of these wigs besides the natural look that you can get? For the high price, you would certainly be expecting more, and you'll definitely get more if you choose a good quality human hair wig. These wigs are generally more comfortable to wear because they have more breathability. With synthetic wigs, your scalp may tend to perspire more especially if you are in a warm climate. With proper care, human hair wigs can also last up to several years without losing its original shine and softness.
On the downside, the most obvious is the price. Although some high-end brands do cost several hundreds of dollars, there are also some that you can get for as low as $70. Still, the costlier ones usually offer a lot more in terms of quality, longevity, and durability.
If you are a person who doesn't like to spend too much time styling your hair, then a human hair wig may not be the best idea, as they need to be styled after every wash, which is not necessary with synthetic wigs. Synthetic wigs will keep their style even after you wash them. You would need to brush it though, if you want to achieve the best look.
Now that you have found the answers to the question what are the benefits of human hair wigs, you would also need to understand that not all human hair wigs are the same. If you want to enjoy the most benefits and the most natural look, you should choose the Remy lace wigs because these are the ones that still have the cuticle intact, thus preserving much more of the natural qualities of hair for a longer time.

Hello everyone! How are you all doing? It's been 3 months already since I went back from this trip but it is only now that I found the time to publish the hanging backlogs that I have. (Home quarantine plans, I'm finally ticking it one by one!!) Our last full day in Macau was a free day for us. We don't have a necessary itinerary to follow and what we actually did was buy souvenirs and anik anik that we want to take home. We also went to the places near our hotel that we weren't able to go to on the first day. :)
Typical hotel breakfast consists of cereals, unli siopao (hahaha sorry for hoarding!!!), rice cakes, noodles and bread.

Outfit. I just love how I pulled off this Femmeluxe dress on our last day. I love that it's body hugging but stretchable & comfortable because of its cotton fabric. I decided to complete the look with a pair of white shoes from Nike, red purse from Guess, my newest pair of sunnies from Sunnies Studios and my favorite waterfall coat from SHEIN
The iconic St. Dominic's Church at the middle of Senado Square
Portuguese inspired shops and buildings in Senado Square
We went on two museums during that day. The first one was in Macau Timepiece Museum...
... and the other one was in Museo de Macau.
We also dropped by Travessa da Paixao to take some outfit pictures for the blog. I love its colorful alleyways, interesting shops, cafes and art exhibits!
Ruins of St. Paul 
The iconic tourist spot and most visited casino in Macau, Grand Lisboa. We were able to explore the casino but pictures are not allowed inside. 
That sums up our last full day in Macau. Thanks for reading! Keep safe and healthy :)
