Luvme Introduces First-Ever Human Hair Base Braided Wig OwnScalp™, Bringing Salon-Like Braids into Everyday Life

NEW YORK, May 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Braided hairstyles have long been more than a beauty choice; they are a powerful form of cultural expression and identity within the Black community. Honoring this cultural significance, Luvme, the world's leading human hair wig brand, introduces the OwnScalp™ Braided Wig, a first-of-its-kind solution with respect and intention, transforming traditional braiding into a modern solution that aligns with the evolving lifestyles of today's Black women.

Bringing Salon-Level Braids into Everyday Life

While salon braiding remains a popular styling choice, consumers continue to face key challenges, including lengthy installation times that can take hours, high salon costs, and limited styling flexibility once the hair is installed. In addition, traditional braiding methods may place tension on natural hair and hairlines over time.

Developed in response to these concerns, Luvme OwnScalp™ offers a more accessible and protective alternative for everyday braided beauty—without compromising on style or authenticity.

Industry-First Human Hair Base Braided Wig Innovation

Luvme is the first human hair wig brand to introduce a full lace braided wig built on a human hair base—setting a new benchmark for realism and craftsmanship in the category. This year, the design has been further elevated through refined construction and upgraded detailing.

The Luvme OwnScalp™ Braided Wig features an industry-first design that combines a human hair base with a 26-inch full lace braided structure, delivering a highly realistic scalp appearance and an exceptionally natural finish.

Unlike conventional synthetic foundations, a human hair base requires far more selective sourcing, intricate craftsmanship, and significantly higher production investment—placing it among the most advanced constructions in braided wigs. This rare foundation enhances not only the realism of the final look, but also the wearing experience itself, creating a lighter, more breathable feel that sets it apart from traditional alternatives.

At Luvme, we believe that beauty should never come at the cost of comfort. Built on this foundation, the OwnScalp™ is designed with natural parting and refined hairline detailing to deliver a seamless, scalp-like finish, offering a tension-free, heat-free experience that protects natural hair while preserving a naturally elevated aesthetic.

Designed for Real-Life Moments

Designed with real-life moments in mind—especially for hot, humid summer days—the OwnScalp™ collection features versatile styles, including braids, twists, and micro braids, making it perfect for travel, vacations, and effortless everyday wear.

Designed with ready-to-wear convenience, the pre-braided format enables a seamless "wear-and-go" experience, significantly reducing the time and effort traditionally required for braided styling. This innovation transforms salon-level braided looks into an efficient, everyday beauty solution.

With OwnScalp™, Luvme continues its mission to redefine protective styling by combining innovation, cultural respect, and everyday practicality. The launch marks a new chapter in braided beauty—where style, comfort, and protection can truly coexist.

Books Link China and Latin America, Ushering in a New Chapter of Cultural Dialogue

BEIJING, May 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On April 23, the 2026 Buenos Aires International Book Fair kicked off its 50th edition, a flagship event in the Spanish-speaking world gathering over 1,500 exhibitors from 40+ countries and regions.

Organized by China National Publications Import and Export (Group) Co., Ltd., China's leading publishers participated with engaging displays and events, becoming a standout highlight.

China Pavilion: A Cultural Gateway

Under the theme Reading China, the China pavilion sits in a prime spot, blending Eastern charm with modern design. It features 600+ titles and a special Sino-Argentine literary exhibition, drawing local readers and industry insiders. A reader from Córdoba, Argentina, told reporters at the pavilion: "China and Argentina are geographically distant, but both our literatures share profound themes of patriotism, family and friendship. I hope to read more works by Chinese writers."

Diverse Cultural and Publishing Exchanges

The delegation hosted 11 events, including the Sino-Argentine Contemporary Literary Dialogue and industry cooperation seminars. Radina Dimitrova, renowned sinologist from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, noted that books serve as a timeless path of culture and ink bridging China and Argentina, highlighting the power of literary exchange to foster mutual understanding.

Paula Pampín, Editor-in-Chief of Argentina's Ediciones Corregidor, emphasized that books should be regarded not merely as commercial commodities but as the most effective vehicle for cultural diplomacy. She stressed the value of direct Chinese-to-Latin American Spanish translation, avoiding filtered interpretations via European languages, and called for stable long-term cooperation such as joint publishing initiatives.

The events also covered university sessions, poetry sharing, copyright collaboration, co-publishing and overseas distribution. Delegates held in-depth B2B talks with representatives from CLACSO, the Peruvian cultural delegation and Argentine Book Chamber.

Heritage Demonstrations Captivate Fair-goers

An intangible cultural heritage event, showcasing paper-cutting, calligraphy and traditional performances, delighted visitors, forging warm cultural connections through interactive displays.

Growing Ties for Years to Come

Tailored for Spanish-speaking audiences, the exhibition highlighted diverse localized publications. Moving forward, Chinese publishers will deepen copyright cooperation, literary exchanges and academic ties with Latin America, strengthening cross-cultural bonds.
