You ladies look so beautiful. :yep:

I have NEVER, EVER, EVER thought of sporting a wig!:nono: I just always assumed it was for people over 50 and cancer patients, or other people who were having hair problems.

But, OMGoodness! When I saw you ladies sporting these wigs, ya'll have completely CHANGED MY MIND! I am going to get me some wigs. I mean, I was thinking it will be great for a protective styles, and also to help me keep my hands out of my hair.

Wow! Ya'll really look nice. Thank you for this thread. And, the crazy thing is that I had seen this thread before so many times and had read on here about wearing wigs, but my mind was so closed during that time. So, I just never even considered wearing a wig. I would just completely look over wig suggestions.

But, then yesterday, I don't even know why I clicked on this thread. But OMGoodness, I am so glad I did.

Thank you ladies for sharing. LHCF is truly the best.

I used to be just like you and then I decided to go natural at the home stretch it got hard for me to do anything to my hair, I could wear two strand twist because of the relaxed ends and I wasn't going to straighten it all the time, so I bough a half wig and wore it for about two months until I my hair was at a comfortable length for me. Good luck on your transition.
 
I have Bali girl....love it!!!

Hello everyone. This is my first time joining a hair forum and this one is the best.:yep: I've been transitioning for three months (12/19 was my 3 month mark) and I recently bought two wigs to wear while I go through the transition. I have a question for you all. How should I braid my hair while I wear the wig. My hair is BSL but severely damaged. Should I cornrow it straight to the back? Should I braid in plaits? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.:) Here's a photo of the wigs I bought.

Thanks for the advice. I'll try the four plaits and pin it down. I've been running around all day now I've gotten lazy and don't feel like cornrowing.
 
Yay!
I finally got some new wigs! These are my two synthetic lacefronts. I will be joining the wig challenge (hopefully). Pardon that crooked blind in the background. :lachen:

Wig 2 (I was messing around with my makeup too, so I'm looking kinda crazy, but you get the point).

I am loving wig 1 with the slight bang on the side. It is very becoming on you. Both of them look nice on you though. I love that you can play around with those without them looking fake.

Aww. Thanks so much. I'm pretty partial to the first one as well.

I am actually going to cut the second one. It's a little too long for my taste, but I wanted to just take the pictures prior to cutting it.

these are BEAUTIFUL on you! Do you mind sharing the brand/number of the first one with me? Also, how did you attach them?

Sure (and thanks for the compliment).
The first is actually the Modu Invisiwig 101 (just like Regswife I believe). I just parted it differently.

The second is also a Modu Invisiwig. That one is the 107.

I actually didn't attach them with anything. The wigs have two combs on the side by the ears, a comb in the back and two straps to make it tighter. I don't use the combs (I'm scared of breaking my hair off). I am able to make the straps so tight that I didn't need to use the tape on them. Plus I have a big head. LOL. Seriously, though.

The 107 is also great b/c even though it's synthetic it's made of that Futura fiber, so you can curl it on a certain setting.

I got both of them at a BSS in Virginia Beach. The 101 was $49.99 ($20 cheaper than I had seen it online for) and the 107 was $64.99.

I bought my first human hair half wig. I was pleasantly surprised about the price ($30). I already like it a lot better than my synthetic one BUT my HH wig is a bit longer than I would like it to be. I must have a short neck because it looked shoulder length on the mannequin but it's collarbone length on me. Should I could it? I've never cut hair though... Who should I ask? Would it be silly to ask my stylist to cut it for me? I just want 2-3 inches off

That wouldn't be silly. I have seen stylists cut and style human hair wigs. She can probably cut it into a style you really like while you have it on and you can walk out like you just got your hair done. :grin:
