Review – YMHPRIDE Stretch Jersey Turban

September 18, 2022

Filed Under : Grooming

Today, I’m back with a new product review from the YMHPRIDE store on Amazon. Haven’t heard of them? You check out all their products here!I decided to review one of their hot sellers, the stretch jersey turban! When you get a chance, check out the full review below:

Product

These high-quality turbans are ideal for many different haircuts and may be used as a turban, scarf, or shawl. They can be dressed in a variety of ways! For example, check out my t-shirt and jogger combo. The pink headwrap adds the finishing touches to this casual outfit.

Packaging

The headwraps arrived folded in a plastic bag. Depending on your order, you can pay for four or six headwraps per package.

Value

A pack of turbans are sold anywhere from $21 to $29.

Review

These high-quality turbans are constructed from stretchable, super-soft polyester fabric. The jersey material is  perfect for covering long hair or locks.

Since I had no previous experience, YouTube was a big help. I spent a lot of time familiarizing myself with the turban wrapping process.

Feeling overwhelmed? Don’t get discouraged! Remember, practice makes perfect.

The Good: If you’re looking to build your headwrap collection, look no further! YMHPRIDE has all colors of the rainbow. Plus, they’re washer friendly. The colors don’t fade or bleed.

The Bad: The turbans aren’t pre-tied. So, you have to figure out what turban style works best for you.

Overall

I give this product a 5 out 5. I have almost every color now!

Review – You Go Natural (YGN) Halo T-Shirt Turban (Ash)

March 29, 2022

Filed Under : Grooming

Hey everyone! I’m back this week to announce my latest collaboration with You Go Natural (YGN). In a previous blog post, I reviewed their open shirt jersey turban found here. Today, I’m trying on the highly anticipated, halo t-shirt turban from YGN’s spring/summer collection.

When you get a chance, check out the full review below:

Product

YGN’s latest collection features the latest hues and colors (With an updated design) created specifically for men. It’s tight fit is ideal for keeping all your natural hairstyles in place. Since I’m manipulating my hair a lot this season, the lightweight turban is the perfect option. Bonus – The infinity loop is lightweight, comfortable, and adds for a stunning finish.

Packaging

Similar to the previous YGN product I reviewed, the turban arrived in clear bag with the YGN logo printed across the front. The bag has a zipper top closing, which prevents the turban from falling out. 

Value

This turban is being sold for $35 (The average price as most of their products). If you have a few bucks to spare, its worth the purchase.

Review

YGN’s headwraps and turbans and headwraps are pre-tied (That’s their selling points). Since I’m always in a rush, I don’t necessarily have two to three minutes to sit down and tie a turban. The pre-tied options usually accommodate my lifestyle better. Plus, there are many colors to choose from. If you’re like me and love a few options, you won’t be disappointed.

The Good: I love supporting black owned businesses in general. That in itself is a great selling point for me. Plus, I love the turban’s lightweight jersey material. Plus, it absorbs the moisture from all my hair products as well (Like a t-shirt). Don’t get me wrong, you’ll see the stains, but they will dry up eventually.
The Bad: Sometimes, it’s a little hard to get the infinity loop to how I want it to look, especially after wrapping it a couple of times (It could be me being critical). Other than that, it’s perfect!

Overall

I give this product a 5 out 5. I can’t wait to try on a new product!

Review – You Go Natural (YGN) Open Shirt Turban

December 21, 2021

Filed Under : Grooming


Question of the day: do you like wearing headwraps? If so, this post is for you!

Today, I’m honored to announce my recent collaboration with You Go Natural, aka YGN. Haven’t heard of them? No problem! I’m here to catch you up to speed.

With the tagline, “Protective styling made easy,” YGN is a  black owned business that specializes in protecting natural hairstyles with high quality, pre-tied head coverings (For both women and men). Best of all: Their products are really great for people with waves, locs, kinks, and curls (People of African decent).

So, before we get too carried away, lets check out the full review below:

Product

Since I have all this hair, its been a task to keep my fro protected, especially during bedtime. I’m known to toss and turn throughout the evening, causing many split ends. In the past, I’ve tried satin pillow cases, bonnets, and other hair accessories with little to no luck. Luckily, the team over at YGN gifted me one of their best sellers, the cognac open t-shirt turban to try out!

Packaging

Words can’t describe how excited I was to receive this package. Why? For one, I feel honored that YGN even collaborated with me in the first place. Mo and I accidently discovered their website a few months ago (We were shopping around for some new bedtime head coverings). Of course, we were super impressed. Plus, I appreciate all the colors, neutrals and skintones included (Those are had to come by these days).

Before the package arrived, I had little to no expectations. I envisioned the usual packaging situation from other companies (No shade), a shipping bag with a turban balled up inside. Luckily, YGN exceeded my expectations! The turban arrived in clear bag within the mailing package, with the YGN logo printed across the front. The bag itself was very easy to open, making the turban completely accessible (No wrapping paper, packaging air bags, or styrofoam found here).

Value

YGN is selling this particular turban for $35. That’s not a bad price considering the turban is pre-tied, which is a great selling point for their products.

Product

As mentioned above, YGN’s headwraps and turbans are pre-tied. They’re perfect, especially if you haven’t learned how to wrap a turban yet. It’s elastic design makes it easy to fit any head shape, including mine (Remember, I have a big head, and a lot of hair). Plus, it didn’t pull out any of my hair, which is usually a major concern.

The Good: Loved the style including the color and material. Easy to wrap around head. Looks great when hair is worn up (Pineapple hairstyle preferred)
The Bad: Nothing at all!

Overall

I give this product a 5 out 5. This was my first pre-tied turban, and I love it! The packaging was very chic, and easy to open. Plus, the turban is easy to wear. It takes no time to slip it on, and go to sleep. I can’t wait to make a few more purchases.
