The hair celebrities wear......in secret!Want to add length, volume or colour to your hair, or totally change your look? Love the glamour of weaves, lace fronts, bonding, braids and other hair extensions but don't have the time or money required? Fed up with the unruliness and high maintenance of clip-in pieces? Hate full wigs because..... they look like full wigs! Fed up with the tell-tale bump of a half, three-quarter or stocking wig? Desparate for a solution that will not destroy your hair and scalp? We could go on and on........! Then you need the 'SimiWeave™'! Heralded by Black Beauty & Hair Magazine as '...a new invention to take the hair industry by storm....', the SimiWeave™ allows you to incorporate a real and natural parting in your hairstyle. It has a small gap in the hairline at the front, through which you bring out your a tiny bit of your own hair (about the size of two fingers, that's all), part it, and brush it over the SimiWeave™. This authentic parting allows you to show off your own scalp and roots making it look like all the hair is growing out of your head - unbeatable realism! | | | | Examples of a 'left parting', 'centre parting' and 'right parting' SimiWeave™. Above: shown on minature mannequin heads (so the gaps appear bigger than they are in real life). Below: as worn by models. |

The SimiWeave™ improves on traditional weaves, lace fronts and hair extensions in many ways. (1) It only takes a few seconds to put on and take off. Check out our 'how to wear SimiWeave™ video' Watch it here, now! (2) You only pay for it once and can use it again and again. (If you've ever had a traditional weave or extensions cut into style, only to find that you couldn't reuse the same hair to achieve the same style again, you'll totally appreciate this point!). (3) The hair is not sewn or glued onto your own hair or forehead either, to avoid discomfort, headaches, or the damage to your own hair, skin or scalp. (4) You can take it off at night to let your own hair and scalp breathe! (Or, keep it on, if you prefer). And, (5) because of its unique award-winning design, there are no bumps or any of the telltale signs you get with half or three-quarter wigs. The SimiWeave™ is deliberately lightweight and low in density (i.e. no BIG hair!) so is extremely comfortable and will give you a realistic head of hair. You only have to bring out a tiny bit of your own hair at the front (about the size of two fingers, that's all) so even if your hair doesn't match the SimiWeave™ hair 100% in terms of texture or colour, you should be able to get away with it! |
The SimiWeave™ is the first product to truly combine realism with glamour, convenience with choice and affordability, while facilitating healthy hair and growth. (Watch Chris Rock's 'Good Hair' film for a hilarious overview of the other time consuming, damaging and expensive products available on the market. Then watch our 'How to wear' video (click here) or Simi Belo's crazy video response to Rock's film (click here) .....there is no comparison!) The SimiWeave™ will change your view on weaves, wigs, lace fronts and other types of hair extensions forever! This is why it is already worn by many celebrities in complete secret, and loved and recommended by trichologists everywhere!

The SimiWeave™ was created by Simi Belo (pictured right), who had always been keen to improve the products available for women. Even though plaiting and weaving hair had been a hobby of hers for many years, she still hadn’t found the ideal hair solution to address all her daily hair requirements. She needed something she could use and maintain at home herself. It had to be quick and easy to use, and not cause damage to her own hair and scalp. AND IT HAD TO LOOK REAL!
