I know what you mean. I'm in that state right now! :lol:HairPleezeGrow

I am not working right now and I stay up all day and night. For some reason. it's at night when I get the hankering to put on makeup and try on my wigs.

Too bad there aren't any "old" people night clubs to go to where I live. :lachen::lol:

Is it in NJ? :look:
I need one close to my house! :lol: I'm in my late 50's and there really aren't any nice places to hang out that's geared to a mature crowd. There was this really nice martini bar I used to go to, but parking is damn near impossible and they don't have valet parking.

Lol no sorry it's in San Antonio, Texas
 
Going wig shopping tomorrow before work or I may order 2 wigs online tonight. I'm officially addicted. My life has been so much easier and I feel more polished and put together. Not that I didn't look polished and put together with my natural hair, I just didn't feel it. I was in a "bun rut" and we all know that when you feel your hair looks bad, nothing else looks right to you. I'll post pics later of what I'm thinking about getting.
 
How often do you wash your synthetic wigs? Almost starting to feel like Im doin laundry or somethin'!! I live in the city so theres pollution. I dont like that outside smell. I might wear a new one like three times and then I gotta wash it. Is that extreme?

I LOVE this HHJ!!
 
I ordered me some new hair last month to make me another wig since I messed up the one I had when I over processed it...this is the one

So I ordered the exact same hair and it's more coarse than the last hair and not as tight of a curl also the color is more of a 1b than the #2 i had before...this new wig I made

I like it but gotta get used to it I guess.
 
So many wigs to choose from. I can't decide. I want to try making my own but I don't have the time or patience. I have it narrowed down to like 7 :look::look:

Thanks I cowashed it with shea moisture cleansing cowash and dcd with shea moisture dcs as well. Then added some shea moisture milk and let it air dry so it looks a ton better than these pics. I'll show you tomorrow what it looks like now.
 
I found another wig I absolutely :love:. It's by Vanessa, called La Efrah. It's short and cute and perfect to use on my heavy outdoor work out days.

And here it is:

I'm going to pick this wig up and get my hair stylist to cut it. Thanks for posting!
 
So right now,
I'm still in Paris studying, so I've definitely been taking advantage of all of the wigs I brought with me (8!). This one is one of my 2 virgin human wigs, and it's been an amazing investment. I've had it since December, and besides spritzing it with water, washing it and combing it gently, I've had to do nothing to it.

I am officially bored of my two wigs. I've been wearing my hair out this week (and last week). I either need to fix up and get to making that crochet wig with supplies I bought weeks ago, or get to wig shopping.

Be careful when cutting curly synthetic hair. They don't respond well. You may have to snip it here and there but if you cut it, it very well may change the whole natural look of this wig. I snipped little pieces from the lower back side of it for a more tapered look and it was perfect.

I wear a tiny bit of my hair out in front to blend in with the wig. No one even knows it's not my own hair unless I tell them so. Just bought another one as a backup.
 
I fell in love today. She was thick and silky and I needed her in my life. Then I picked her up, ready to take her home....and she had this dumb @$$ plastic scalp attached. My heart broke instantly. Why oh why? :cry:

Welcome and very nice wig!
 
I've been bad... I splurged and ordered some glueless lace fronts from Eva Wigs -- four to be exact. The first one I ordered in February is ready to ship. They sent me pics and here is the unit. It's their Kinky Curly, light-medium density in Jet Black: image-176029934.jpg
