I am definitely in for 2015. I will probably take a break every now and then. Right now I am only wearing wigs on the weekends and wear my TWA during the week.
1.How long do you plan on wigging it (3months, the entire year, between other protective styles, etc.): Winter, Spring and Fall... I'll take a break once the weather gets hot. Right now I plan on wigging indefinitely. I will probably announce when I am ready for a break.
2.Purpose of joining challenge (protective styling, low manipulation, hair retention, etc.): Low manipulation The purpose of me joining is for protective styling.
3.Whether you are: natural, relaxed [texlaxed, bonelaxed, texturized, etc.], transitioning: Natural I am newly natural, rocking the TWA.
4.Current hair length: TWA
5.Styling choice of hidden hair (ie. Beehive, plaits, cornrows, etc.): Plaits, twists, or cornrows. Right now it's just loose under my wigs. Hopefully I will be able to braid my hair down soon!

7.Photo of any wigs you are currently wearing and/or hope to wear: pics posted
My new thing for this year's challenge will be to take my wigs to get thinned. No matter what my wigs always are too thick and wiggy for my tastes. Taking my wigs to a professional stylist has really done wonders! Thinning my wigs make them look more like a sew in rather than a wig.
@gabulldawg where did you get your wig from ?
You did a great job making your wig, @cherishlove. How did you make it?
Great job!I made this wig.
Hey, if I have to I carefully stitch it or if you have the extra piece of lace from when you cut it off the front hairline you can sew that as an anchor underneath the torn partIs there a way to repair ripped lace?
I'm annoyed considering I've only worn it once. I recently purchased this wig from a BSS while out of town.
I can't find contact info for FreeTress Equal nowhere on the web!
I'm not sure how it's torn but I'd consider going to the fabric store and finding a soft, fine mesh or other substitute. And dying the replacement fabric if necessary. Also using fabric glue.Is there a way to repair ripped lace?

If anyone is looking for a cute bob wig try new born free mlc156. I've been wearing it for maybe 4 months now and I get compliments everywhere I go. The parting is good (but still needs to be cut) and it really lasts. I highly recommend it
New addition to my collection. This is a Bob style that is 16" and I have a short neck so it has to be cut to fit me. I should have ordered this in a 12" or 14."
I'll post when it's styled.

Hi @mshoneyfly@januarynoir
This is really cute!
I am the opposite. I have a long neck so it would prob be just right for me. Is that human hair?
Please include the specs on this wig when you post. I would like to get one.
@SuchaLady@january noir What are the details on this? Beautiful texture for the summer.
@SuchaLady
This is another custom wig from Eva Wigs. I ordered this in low density (70%).
Brandy Enchanting Medium Curly Custom Full Lace Human Hair Wig
It arrived looking one way, but after I washed and conditioned it, It looks completely different than the original style. I still like it though. Here's the link
