Miss MyMy Easy Shrinkies

Shrinkies are a strand by strand hair extension method. They are Keratin lined tubes that shrink when heat is applied. The difference between Miss MyMy Easy Shrinkies and regular shrinkies is the loop. With Easy Shrinkies the loop is attached to the tube. In the case of other companies, the shrinkie are separate and you have to purchase the looper separately. With each section of hair the looper must be relooped which takes additional time. Since our looper is attached one step can be eliminated.

How They're Used

Natural hair is pulled through the tube using the looper
Once the natural hair is through I tipped hair is inserted into the tube
Use your fusion heating tool to heat the tube which will shrinks down to protect the bond once heat is applied. If you don’t have a fusion heating tool you can use your flat iron.
Roll the tube between your fingers to ensure a solid bond without air bubbles.
Also really great for sealing micro braids.

To Remove Shrinkies
Reheat the tube which will simply slide off the natural hair.

Advantages To Easy Shrinkie
No damage to your hair
The hair is reusable
Fast installation time
No slippage

Available in 2 colors and 2 Lengths 4mm and 2mm (4mm shown below)

No Cruelty Feather Extensions

2011-10-25T17:52:00.000-04:00

Feather extensions are a very big fashion trend in hair. Unfortunately sometimes the way the feathers are harvested have been found to be cruel.

Birds are being gassed solely for their feathers and then the meat discorded.
Feather pelts are being made. For those who don’t know what a feather pelt is, the skin with feathers attached is taken and the bird discarded.
Birds are being kept in unethical conditions stacked one on top of the other in small isolated cages.
The above is also happening with some exotic birds

We at Miss MyMy think the feathers are better on the bird.

Miss MyMy is the only company that has cruelty free organic “Hair Feathers”.

Our Hair Feathers are:

Hand painted with organic hair color to create the feather look.
Available in a variety of colors
Able to be styled with heat
Applied with clips allowing you to remove them when and if you want to.
20 inches long ( you can trim them if you choose)
Available in curly textures so our curly divas are not left out from the trend

Learn The Correct Way To Take Care Of Your Lace Wig By Attending The Miss MyMy Webinar

2011-10-16T20:54:00.001-04:00

You've Made The Decision To Invest In A Lace Wig, Now Make Sure You Know How To Take Care Of It.

For those who don't know what, a webinar is, it's a way to attend a conference without leaving the comforts of your home, no matter where that home is. Using your computer and telephone, you can participate in a presentation, (like a conference call), so you can hear what the presenter is saying and also see the presenters slides and videos (watching over an internet connection). You won't be able to see the presenter, or others attending the program -- and they won't be able to see you. (so you don't have to get dressed at all, and no one will see if your hair isn't done).

Our 1-2hr webinars are intended to help both professionals and nonprofessionals learn more about the care and application of their lace wigs.

The cost of each of our webinars is between $100 and $150. A credit of $75.00 will be put towards any purchase you choose to make from Miss MyMy, making the cost of the webinar between $25.00 and $75.00
To secure your space add the webinar or webinars of your choice to your shopping cart. Your credit card will be debited for the full cost of the webinar.

Spaces are limited and cannot be guaranteed until payment is made.
Once payment has been received you will be sent a registration form with additional details and password access to the webinar of your choice.

What will be covered and included in the "How To Care For Your Lace Wig" Webinar.

The cost of this webinar is $125:

The biology of hair
The PH of products and why it causes certain things to happen to hair
Causes of "shedding", dullness, tangling and how to avoid them
The correct way to wash your lace wig to ensure you don't loose hair
Any and all tricks our instructors have found helpful.
There will be a question and answer period at the end of the webinar.

FOR THOSE WHO PREFER CLIP EXTENSIONS

2011-10-03T10:00:00.000-04:00

Ok...so not everyone wants to commit to sewn on or glued on extensions.

For those who are a little shy of permanent hair extensions, our custom clips are a great solution.

Choose the hair that most closely matches your natural hair, in this case Fijian Loose curl which matches perfectly.

Your measurements will be taken if you are in one of our stores or you can send them to us, if ordering on line.

Clips will be made that perfectly match your head size. No more sagging or bagging just a perfect fit.

ANYONE FOR TIGHT CURL!!!!!

2011-10-02T10:00:00.000-04:00

Got your tight curl here..come get it while it's hot!!!

Ok...it's always going to be hot but that sounded good.

This is the ultimate in Afrocentric natural hair.

From Blond to Redhead

2011-10-01T10:00:00.000-04:00

We think red heads have more fun.... at least that's what our red head beauties tell us.

This color required a great deal of time and expertise, since the hair had been bleached for a very long time. We wanted the end result to be very subdued.

Quite the opposite of this striking red...we LOVE IT but then again WE LOVE THEM ALL.

Have Your Unit Made With A Mold

2011-09-30T10:00:00.000-04:00

For the ultimate in customization have your unit made to the exact contour of your head.

Our regular custom units are made using measurements in order to construct units for both men and women.

Specific areas of the head are measured in order to create the unit.
This is a great value since our manufacturing technique with measurements is outstanding and is great for most people.

Units made from a mold will fit like a glove. We will be able to replicate the exact hairline of the client or create one of his/her liking. Units made with molds require several fittings in order to make the mold. The mold can be made from a few different materials depending on the clients wishes. Once the mold is made, each unit the client orders thereafter will be made from that mold. The mold will be filed at our offices for the clients convenience.

Custom units are like clothing that you can have made by a dress maker by giving your measurements or her taking your measurements.

Units made with molds are like couture clothing , not available everywhere, very customized.

Both types of units use the same outstanding Miss MyMy Organic Hair.

Below is the first fitting for a mold. This mold will be created with silicone upon its completion.

Please call our offices if you are interested in having a unit made with a bold.

What Happens When You Take Care Of Your Unit?

2011-09-29T10:00:00.000-04:00

It will last a lifetime.

The following client bought a closure from Miss MyMy in 2009...Yes I said 2009. She had it colored to her natural hair color which is a very very light ash blond.

The closure she purchased was made from Malaysian Straight hair which has a very dark natural color.

This client winters in Florida so her hair is exposed to a great deal of sunshine...damn that sunshine state...lol

Below we see the before pictures, originally taken in 2009.

She came in a week ago asking us if we could tone her hair as it was getting a bit gold...after 2 years...wow....no hair loss at all and she has worn this hair every day, all day for 2 years. It is now her hair.

When asked what she did to make it last so long without any hair loss. she said she washes often with Miss shampoo and conditioner, uses Miss MyMy serum and makes sure to treat it every 2 weeks. If your hair care regime does not look like that ,you're not doing it right.

This is a picture of the closure taken prior to coloring Sept 2011

The pictures speak for themselves.

Are You Experiencing Thinning

2011-09-25T18:35:00.000-04:00

You don't have to accept thinning.

Many Men and women experience thinning at their crown. They don't need a full wig, just something to cover the problem area.

Closures may be the solution for you. The following client uses clips to app;y her hair piece. Many of our clients will sew their piece. we have a variety of hair replacement techniques to suit every need.

Still Going Strong After 21/2 Years

2011-09-22T12:39:00.000-04:00

Miss MyMy Wigs are made to last.

Yes the following image is a Fijian Medium Curl Wig. It was made 21/2 years ago for the clients wedding in Barbados. Needless to say it saw its fair share of salt water while she was there on her honeymoon.

Since that time it has been back to Barbados as well as many other places and still looks fantastic.

The client is wearing it behind her natural hairline and has styled it with a French braid along the front.

Good for you...looks great and VERY natural.

Straight Malaysian Wig Worn Curly

2011-09-22T10:00:00.001-04:00

I think it's only fair, since I posted pics of my tight curl Fijian wig that I blow dried and flat ironed and wore straight, to also post some pics of my 26' Malaysian straight wig, worn curly. Whewww...talk about a mouthful!

First, I lightly sprayed my clean hair with some hairspray, just to give it some hold. And I mean LIGHTLY. I used a 3/4 barrel curling iron, and started with small-ish section at the back. I curled all the hair going back in long ringlets from the left side of my head, and then the same from the right; meeting at the back. To finish, I took smaller sections from the top and followed the same pattern. The bangs area, I sort of swooped into one of the curls and dropped it off into a ringlet as well. I tried to spiral curl the hair as I wound it around the curling iron barrel.

When I finished curling, I let the hair cool a minute before combing it out with my fingers, so as not to disturb the curl pattern too much. Voila! Beautiful, sexy curls on a straight hair wig!!!

Personalize Your Miss MyMy Tape Extensions

2011-09-22T10:00:00.000-04:00

Unlike most tape extensions on the market Miss MyMy tape extensions are hand tied.

This means that instead of the hair being glued onto the silicone base, each hair is hand tied into the silicone base resulting in a higher quality finished product that is completely reusable, and will not shed.

Pre taped with our blue liner you can expect a 6-8 week bond.

The hair above is our Fijian loose curl tape extensions which have been colored with organic hair color.

Congratulations to The Multicultural Beauty Group

2011-09-20T17:45:00.000-04:00

A big congratulations to The Multicultural Beauty Group on their first trade show and gala.

After much hard work it was a HUGE success.

The Gala event to honor the veterans of the trade was great. Mr Azan in particular was very inspiring. He spoke of people of color taking ownership in the business side of this industry...something we usually don't do. It was fantastic meeting him and I felt rejuvenated in my quest to own a small piece of the pie.

Gloria Mcleod, the founder was absolutely stunning in her gown, and of course MyMy hair. She was successful in doing what many others before her were unable to do.....I hope she continues to make this a yearly event with the help of Shaila and Debbie...Great work ladies you deserve a round of applause,

Cuty pie Adrian....WOW...if only...anyway your fashion show was awesome...really pulled together. Just fantastic

The MyMy ladies were looking great as usual wearing Fijian loose curl

Hannah and Sigyn

The trade show portion of the weekend was full of a variety of vendors and many patrons. The weave and barber contests were a hit. Everyone will be back next year, I know I will.

Thank you to everyone at MBG for starting this event.
