2016 Wig Challenge

I'm going to come back to wigging it. The wig is just too easy. I bought 2 silk top wigs from freetress and so far they look great. I think I will buy one more. I am going to try just leaving the edges out to see if I can grow the rest of my hair a bit.

Now I only have one wig I will be wearing right now. I straightened and did this fire cut on one wig but I could not curl the hair. Not even a weak bump on the ends. I tried to work with the tangly wavy texture but it was just a waste of time. Terrible wig. My other wig is perfect. I just wish it was a bit shorter so it could be an everyday wig but now I need to step my game up and try wearing a glamorous look day to day. Beauty is my profession so I need to look the part too.
 
  • Pre-poo'd overnight with AVJ spritz.
  • DC'd with ORS & Texture My Natural for a little over an hour under the heat cap.
  • CW'd with HE The Sleeker The Butter, used CC's Natural Scalp Scrub, Garnier Reconstructor & 80% rinse out of ACV & Tressemme Moisture Rich.
  • LCOB'd with L = LRC Shake 'n Go; C = Mop Top Curling Custard & KJ Natural's Green Mango Stretch & Curl; O = Keravada Alter Ego on scalp & Buttercream on length; B = SSI Kiwi Kiss on ends.
I am still keeping my hair in twists, but I haven't returned to my wigs. I will probably only wear wigs in the Fall & Winter.
 
Anyone still going to wear wigs through the summer? I"ve been wigging it all this time my hair grew to bsl and then after yesterday's set back i'm back to just a few inches below bsb.

I plan on wigging it through the summer and co washing more. currently at work trying to see which wigs i'm going to order next

I don't plan on wigging it this summer, but I plan on keeping my hair in twists and sticking with my current regimen of co-washing twice a week.

Yay! I finally wear wigs now so can join the challenge. Most of mine are Bobbi Boss wigs. The short ones are human hair and I have a few long ones that are synthetic. Do any of you play w/ temporary color spray?

I'm back to my Chocolate wig with the wet and wavy hair. I really hate the bangs, but the color and texture are gorgeous.
