2017 Wig Challenge

@trclemons ,
I'm confused. So on December 31st, are we showing the progress of our real hair? Or, does your note mean that we just need to come in here with any kind of update on 1 of the four dates? There's no [real] hair reveal date for our Wig Challenge, right? Thank you in advance!

Part of your note from the original post:

...Please keep this thread alive with pictures of your current wigs, wig reviews, hair regimen updates, photos of your hair's progress, etc. as often as possible, but at least on:

1. March 31st

2. June 30th

3. September 30th

4. December 31st
I just provided examples of what we can post to keep the thread alive, but none of the examples are required.
 
This wig is so gorgeous! It looks great on the model, but I wonder how it would look on me. If it looks great on me I would need multiples in different colors :laugh:

Sorry for replying late!

@PinkDiamond

Here is the link to the one I got

http://www.lavyhair.com/360-lace-fr...r-130-density-body-wave-human-hair_p1871.html

Truthfully this is my first 360 lace wig which I was excited to try but I should have just saved the money and got the lace front or went all out and got the full lace wig. I don't do any styles that utilize the 360 lace lol.

I am now looking at this site for a wig for Christmas. Thanks for sharing the website.

Gorgeous wig!!!!
 
I WANT this wig!!! It's $179 dollars. Nerp!I need me a 'wig' job: a job that I do that generates income solely for wig buying.

18 inches, 150 density and human hair. Here's the buy link.

She is right. Hairvivi is working some kind of voodoo because these wigs don't look like wigs. She cut a bit of baby hair and then all she did was put it on her head and used some gel to glue down the edges. :eek:

Is this picture of a wig or you natural hair? If it is a wig, what's the name?
 
Ladies how are you protecting your edges under the wigs.? My edges are very thin.
I drench mine in castor oil before putting the wig on. This won't work if you use got to be glue to keep the lace down, because the gel won't stick to the oil.

This blogger wears swig caps under her wig, which is on my "to try" list: http://www.primadonna-style.com/2014/08/swigcap-pure-silk-wig-cap-review.html

There are also satin ones: http://www.gmbshair.com/stonsahaca.html

Something else I would suggest is to limit the amount of time you wear your wig. I don't wear mine at home, and it's the last thing I put on before I leave the house. Also, no sleeping, coloring, etc. in the wig. Nothing where your wig would be moving around and rubbing on your hairline.
 
The WIG GRIP!!!! best thing ever. Plus I have been faithfully using Edge Entity morning and night. I wash my edges each time I was my face (morning and night) to remove any residue from styling products. And finally I massage almost daily.
Yes the wig grip is a god send!

@Chicoro I just bought this unit for my mom as a Christmas gift! They’re having a Black Friday sale for $30 off their lace front wigs and $40 the 360 lace wigs. I paid $144 for the unit. I also ordered one of their kinky curly units for myself :-3
The reviews for this company online are wonderful. I can’t wait to see my mom try on the hair! I think it will suit her well.

I spritz my hair nightly with my DIY liquid leave in and I alternate between adding creamy leave in to my hair or JBCO/HBCO to my scalp. I put on my plastic cap and bonnet and massage my scalp (with special attention to all of my perimeter) and GHE overnight.
