Reg's Wife, I'm looking in your wig albums and you really wear those wigs well.

 

[naturalmanenyc]

Thank you

DH had a thing against wigs so I never wore them but this transition gave us both an eye opener. Wig have come such a long way!

Hey Hotness, I mean Kandi, lol. I am loving Sabina. That headband is cute, where did you cop that at? Tishee is right beautiful smile and nice brows.

You're so silly. LOL. Thanks for the compliments!!

I got the headband from Target. It came in a pack of three.

Reg, did you buy it from hairsisters? I saw this one on there but it looks much shorter.

 

[Belle Du Jour]

Here is one of my wigs...

It is by Motown Tress Item: FM-104 Fine Mono

OK, I've seen like 5 people with that wig and it looks GREAT on all of y'all. I might take a chance. I'm looking for a full wig.

You sure did a great job with that blending. I think I will do that the next time I wear my half wig. It looked authentic.

 

[naturalmanenyc]

No, I have never ordered from hairsisters.com. The shipping is too high for the 1 item I usually want.

I got Polly at the local BSS for $19.50. (Holiday sale)

My Favorite Half Wig!!!!! Sorry the picture is so small erplexed

 

[TrendySocialite]

If you go to a Beauty Supply they usually let you play around with the wigs...sometimes seeing it on a mannequin or on the package isn't enuff and sometimes the newness and over fakeness can throw u off too....thats why I like the Motown Tress brand...usually they have more natural looking wigs....however I still like to have them worn looking vs new so I mess em up a bit

I pull out my own hair in the front....I like the natural ones because I don't have to str8n my hair out to wear them

Original Wig...Motown Tress

Me playing around with different ways to wear it

Original Wig...The picture makes it look really fake to me....

My different versions

Original wig...this is my favorite

My style either pinned up, or a curly bang

Random 3/4 wigs...all with my hair blended in

The blond one...I didn't dye my hair..I used the brown color spray....to blend it more than my darker natural roots.....if one is going to use the spray be careful with it....use it after u style your hair....don't comb or put heat on it with the spray in it...I think it will really tear ur hair up....and when removing wet and wash out/condition before combing or detangling it

LOVE THESE!!!! How did you pin it up without the tracks in the wig showing? I want to do this with mine.

The picture isn't small at all when you click on it. Cute wig. Thanks for sharing.

That's what I do also. I just do two regular braids at the back and cross them around to the opposite side, then throw on my wig cap. I got my hair cownrowed once but I like this better because I can't cornrow and it saves me money, and this way I can easily take each braid down daily to spritz and moisturize and then easily put it back up.

I love the first updo pic in your siggy....how did you do it!

I love all of the above wig styles. They look so natural. Are all of these wigs by Motown Tress? Would you mind sharing the style names or numbers if you have them? Especially this one.

Hey ladies!!!

Hi Keedah! I think the one I am wearing now is the one you have on in the very last pic! Very cute. I loved it so much I bought one in jet black and one with brownish highlights! I am very self concious but I have gotten so many compliments on my "hair"...LOL...and the more I start to look around (church, work, school) I am noticing that quite a few ladies are rocking wigs...I never really noticed it before.

Work it ladies!!!

One of my favorites is in my siggy and avatar. That's a full wig. I attached some other favorites! Love this thread. Always great to get more wig ideas.

First pic is my newest short full wig. I'm really starting to like those!
Second pic is my favorite half wig (actually wearing it today!)
Last pic is my human hair full wig. That one's actually pretty old.

I have plenty other wig pics in my fotkis.

I like you half wig; looks cute on you.

Tiara, you look fab in your pics...just gorgeous. Oh, yeah, the wigs look great on you too.

I'll have to try these because I can't stand wigs that looks obviously fake. And these look convincing.

Are you model? Who took your pics? They're obviously professional.

Thanks for sharing. I will be trying these wigs!

Hi there,

This is really, really cute. Thanks for sharing the link.

 

[TCatt86]

WOW you look so good!! Cute wig!

Thanks I've only worn it once but what I liked is I looked different without looking like someone else.

^^^ I love it! I am like you.....getting a wig/fall with every pay period.

I really like the versatiltiy of wigs. I love my hair, but the wigs allow me to take a break for a week with twist underneath and the next week wear a rocking twistout.

Hello everyone. This is my first time joining a hair forum and this one is the best. I've been transitioning for three months (12/19 was my 3 month mark) and I recently bought two wigs to wear while I go through the transition. I have a question for you all. How should I braid my hair while I wear the wig. My hair is BSL but severely damaged. Should I cornrow it straight to the back? Should I braid in plaits? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Here's a photo of the wigs I bought.

 

[Moisture2608]

You ladies look so beautiful.

I have NEVER, EVER, EVER thought of sporting a wig! I just always assumed it was for people over 50 and cancer patients, or other people who were having hair problems.

But, OMGoodness! When I saw you ladies sporting these wigs, ya'll have completely CHANGED MY MIND! I am going to get me some wigs. I mean, I was thinking it will be great for a protective styles, and also to help me keep my hands out of my hair.

Wow! Ya'll really look nice. Thank you for this thread. And, the crazy thing is that I had seen this thread before so many times and had read on here about wearing wigs, but my mind was so closed during that time. So, I just never even considered wearing a wig. I would just completely look over wig suggestions.

But, then yesterday, I don't even know why I clicked on this thread. But OMGoodness, I am so glad I did.

Thank you ladies for sharing. LHCF is truly the best.

When I wear my wig I normally flat twist back since I can't cornrow but when I'm feeling lazy I just put it in four plaits and pin it down, then put a sating scarf on, then the wave cap. HTH
