I know a few folks are looking for cute natural kinky/curly wig textures, so I wanted to post a pick I took this weekend in my "Kelly" Newborn Free wig. Its waaaayyyy to long in its original length for "everyday hair" (I bought it for my anniversary cruise trip lol), so I cut it to about APL. It has a great kinky curly texture that looks like a braid or twist out.

Whenever I wanna buy a wig, I always look for youtube clips so I can see what it looks like on a real person. I've bought several wigs I never would have using this method cuz, IMO, they always look horrible on the mannequins lol.

HTH!

Thanks for the heads up !!! it's about time an online vendor capitalized on their premium hair to make half wigs/ side part wigs. Honestly why did it take these people so long. Don't they want my PJ money???


ETA: I wonder if they got the idea from the Island beauty and this is why she had to take her vids down :scratchch

I remember Halley's offered 1/2 wigs a couple of years back. When I finally decided to pony up for one, they were discontinued. Not going to miss it this time around.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Whoo Hooo!! Hello fellow Libras!!! My birthday was last Saturday. Happy Birthday Sheba1.

I'm still hanging in. Shampooed hair in braids with Eluerence Moisture Shampoo and DC with Pantene RN mixed with EVOO for 30 mins. Did my leave-in. My hair feels like butter. My braids are getting very fuzzy thought. I might have to take them out next week and re-do them. We'll see.

 

[NikkiQ]

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Oh my, Nikki she did an excellent job!

thanks! I'll keep doing this for a LONG time to see how well it goes. I'm 5 months and some change and my NG is super thick right now so I think this will most def help with the transition. Heck it has been so far.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Back with an update .. I've been rocking my half wig for 3 weeks so far. I moisturize & seal every night and put on a baggy and go to sleep. When I have to go out I remove the baggy and put on my wig .. I'm really thinking about cutting those combs out soon

This Sunday I have a wedding to attend. I am going to take down my braids and wash my hair but instead of wearing the wig I will place my hair in a bun. Come monday I will be back to wearing my wigs again.

Oh, I also picked up a razor comb to thin out my Freetress Lyon Girl wig. Now the hair is much thinner and looks more like it could be mine

Ok well I'm off to apply my MTG before bed ... good night all

That she is lol

this is a really good idea. and if I'm not mistaken you can probably still even wash and DC in the beehive braids. how much did she charge for that?

 

[VirGoViXxEn]

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

my stylist initially charged $20 for the beehive but i gave her #25 because i wanted the braids thin. Ill upload a pic later on today .

she only charged me $15 but I'm a generous tipper lol. She's fast and very professional even though she operates out of her house with a hyper 2 year old running around the house

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Dang Nikki she did do a good job.

On a side note I am going to do this for 6 months so I'm not officially in this challenge this method is too easy.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

checking in

so I am almost out of the braid spray that I made last week in my 400ml spray bottle

my braids are a fuzzy but I got at least two weeks in these bad boys! lol I might have my mama redo them when I go home next week.. she is way better braider than I am!

Other than that I am rocking my Tori lace wig by Freestress because it is raining crazy in my part of NC and I am not about to doing all the blending for nothing! Half wigs will return when the rain stops!

im in! had a crappy day so i think im gonna make me a wig...

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

I think today will be shampoo and DC day

 

[lolascurls]

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Update: Week two went well! The Polly half-wig (by Outre) was a hit at work! And it looks nice and natural. I have been spraying my braids with Aloe vera juice and adding some Africa's best Leave-in liquid mayo after nightly.
My leave out gets put in three twists at night and liberally sprayed and sealed with coconut oil or Afroveda Shea Amla butter! I need to make some more of my Shea Butter/ coconut oil mix.
Haven't needed any gel!
I plan to keep these braids in for a whole month minimum, by God's grace. I deep condition weekly with coconut oil or some protein conditioner.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Prepooed, steam DC'd and then moisturised with a mix of joico moisture recovery, alba botanica leave in and my homemade whipped shea butter and oil mix. and got my hair canerowed today at my local west African hair braiders. It cost £30/$45 but it's pretty enough for me to also rock in the evenings and weekends and hubby loves it . I plan to keep these in for 3 weeks and do a henna on takedown and then wait a week before doing a protein treatment before putting new cane rows in.

She was a little resistant at first to braid my hair damp but she soon came round to my way thinking and even exchanded her small tooth comb for my wide toothed bone comb.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

What is your PS of choice?
hmmmm im thinking wigs and or weaves

Are you natural or relaxed?
au natural

What are you using for your DC of choice for the deep moisture method?
i have too many good deep conditioners to list lol from joico to cream of nature etc

What are you using to seal before braiding?
either African Shea butter, Castor oil, Vaseline, palm butter or ghee

What are you using to wet your hair before DC is added?
im thinking of adding the following into a spray bottle- 1/3 rose water or African pride braid spray, a bit of glycerin, olive oil, Hawaii silky 14 in 1 moisturizer, infusium and a moisturizing lotion (used to do this when i had good retention, but the cost of skipping protein too its toll)

How will you moisturize and seal while PS is in? What products?
use the above spray ingredients but with added chamomile powder

How often will you wash? What method? What products?
will wash weekly, (co wash leave out hair and shampoo wash bi weekly)with cornrows in either with my abba shampoo or aveda (has protein) depends what i feel like.

What will you use for your hard protein treatment?
and how often? either Aphogee 2 reconsturcter, or one of my tonnes of pj protein treatments i have collected lol

What else might you add to reach your goals?
my scalp stimulating oil- a weird but effective concoction, i will apply this twice a week, more healthy hair growth promoting foods, good vitamins, satin pillow case, more water, more sleep!

Cowashed this morning with vo5 Strengthening conditioner followed by Aussie Moist. I left the Aussie Moist on throughout my Insanity workout and will be washing it out later but I will be putting and leaving a tiny bit in for my deep moisture method.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Wow I have been doing these things for months now not knowing it have a challenge. I will be lurking on the side.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Hey ladies! Just wanted to give an update:

This is my 2nd week in my cornrows, and so far, so good! I was a little worried about overmoisturizing, but when i take down my ends to co-wash and reseal, my ends look great and have lots of elasticity- no breakage. To be on the safe side (can you tell how type A I am? lol) I'm gonna start mixing a little bit of ORS DC in my weekly moisturizing DC mixture, since I know it's more of a protien conditioner.

I've started co-washing more often- 2-3x per week, and I also water-rinse most days during the week following my workout.

Happy growing everyone!

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Shampooed and DC'd yesterday. Braids are holding up well. Starting to become a little "moveable" but I'll just take that as a sign of growth
