Pics of My Lacefront (added pics of hair curled)
I've already shared pics of my lacefront, but wanted to share these new ones. I stopped wearing my lacefront last year because I just got tired of applying the adhesives. I'm too lazy for all of that. I ran across the thread where some of our members had the brilliant idea to sew wig clips or use bobby pins as an alternative to adhesives. I sewed the wig clips only to the front of my hair. The back isn't secure. lol Also, I sewed a strip of nude knee high to where the part is so that it makes it look more realistic, and I don't have to wear a stocking/knee high under the wig.
Since I decided to not use heat AT ALL this year and I can't afford my sew-ins at the moment, I'll be wearing my LF as my primary protective style. I'm planning on braiding my hair once a week and wigging it to work. I'll alternate that with wearing buns since my SO loves them so much. By wearing my lacefront, I can take it off whenever I get home. I have the option of wearing it straight/loose curls, or just taking it off and wearing my natural hair. This makes styling versatile for me.
Here are the pics. I'll be going to Super Cuts to have some long layers cut into it. I'll post more pics when I get that done, and curl it.
Please note that I do have a big forehead, and my hairline is that far back. lol
Lacefront Specs: It's a stock wig
Chinese Vendor - Holly
Light Yaki 1b 18" - had to cut it this morning was down to MBL -- too long

Pics of it curled - I curled it on a styrofoam head that I bought at Sallys for $3.

My natural hair. Failed attempt at shingling.
PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE PICS SHOWING MY FACE
