CocoBunny that's so unfortunate! You can always cut it right? If you're ever looking to get rid of it just take a picture of it and I might buy it from ya :look:
 
CocoBunny could you post a pic of what you got.?

even though im not a wig wearer IF I were to ever to get a wig, the Ombre boho is something I would go for. So it looks nothing like the pic they have on the website?

Cutting it removes the 'ombre' . Which is ok, I guess. I will play a round with it a bit and see if I can get it ready for pictures

It's too long and just not kinky curly. It's wavy and very pretty just not the look I am going for. It looks nothing like the hair in any of the videos. I was looking for coarse, kinky, curly hair and this isn't it.

I am hoping that if I cut a few inches off it will be better. Without the weight of the length the curls might shrink up a but more.
 
CocoBunny That's so unfortunate! I heard Bohyme hair is usually hit or miss though :(.
I found a review of the 12-14inch boho wig that someone else bought and they said they did a twist out on it, and used plexi rods (I think that's what she called them, hell I forgot) on her hair that she left out to blend. She posted some pics of it and it came out gorgeous. There's a link to the blog.

I think you should contact them to get a replacement if it looks nothing like the picture. I know they have a return policy, so send them pictures of it in comparison with what they have on their site. And you can even ask for a shorter length with it coming ombred so you don't have to worry about that.
HTH!

....2 more pics I cut the wig to the style I normally wear and blended my hair.

I should note that I have a lot of new growth and did not flat iron my new growth. If I had it probably would blend even better but I do not plan on flat ironing as I do not use direct heat.

very natural!!!
 
I got my bobby wig. So far I like it better than the other one. I ordered it in a middle U-Shape.

Fresh out of the package so its curled a bit funky. I blended but need to cut my hair a bit in the front to make sure it blends seamlessly. My hair is braided underneath it, which you can see a teeny bit in the front as well. But I like it! I'd show a pic of my scalp but I need to wash that ish lol.

I must say my wig looks a lot like her out of the pack picture. I would never call it kinky hair and it's not as "coarse" looking as the wig shown on the website. I was expecting :

I've been rocking the Bobby wig with a headband so I don't have to leave any hair out. It is such a realistic wig. I haven't washed it yet and it's still holding up with virtually no shedding. I may have experienced shedding 1 or 2 days (and not in a row) which is not bad at all!!!

And when I say shedding I mean 3-4 strands came out here and there while combing.

I have zero tangling problems. So far so good. I'll wash it this weekend for the first time.
 
The Boho is my favorite. I didn't realize it was made with BoBraz. I have some BoBraz, I wish I could find somebody to sew it into a wig for me
 
Wow those wigs look great! I want something more of a relaxed texture. I'm wondering if the Jessica wig is good for blending with relaxed hair? Or maybe the Zoe? I've been thinking about wearing wigs again, but I definitely want something of better quality than a synthetic bss wig.
 
Thanks for the info Layluh and Lymegreen. I can't deal with this set back nonsense any more and am ready to give this relaxer a BREAK. :cry2: :fistshake: The wig I want is currently out of stock, but hopefully, more will be available soon! :grin:
 
Still rocking my 10 inch wig. I haven't worn the Jessica lately cause I like the Bobby more. I think U-part is the way to go too...I need to find a way to make the Jessica a u-part. The owner of the company I work for knows about my wig obsession and asked me if it was a wig (lol he aint got NO shame). I told him yeah and he replied with "Wow, I can't even tell. But thats the point, right?"

On her blog, it said she's revamping the website, coming out with more wigs and a clothing line in February. So things may be out of stock for a while.
 
I started to get slight shedding after the 1st wash but nothing to kick and scream about.

I lose some hair while i comb to style it but not anymore than I would if I combed my own hair AND I am not leaving a trail of hair every where I go.

It's very minimal but I thought I'd mention it. No problems with tangling as of yet.

I've been wearing it pretty much everyday since I got it.
 
Got mine yesterday. I'm still evaluating and experimenting so I'll post a big review later, as well as on my blog. This picture was taken after some extreme reversion. I left out way too much hair, so I need to try again. Need to work on my blending too. This is the Jessica, 14 inches

Any updates and what color is this wig... I think it matches my hair color. KCcurly
 
I like the boho but I want something a bit more cottony in texture. Do you ladies think doing a braidout on Jessica would look similar to a 4a braidout on stretched/blowdried hair?
