WIG CHALLENGE 2010

[Cheekychica]

They have charged my card but a week later there is not even a note on my account that I made a purchase, much less a tracking number or delivery estimate date.



Now they are going and planting fake reviews in there, and deleting unfavorable reviews. SMFH. Without objectivity, that section is worthless



Thank you ma'am! Yeah, the secret is to cornrow your hair like you were doing a sew-in. Beehive works best for me, some folks like straight back with a horizontal braid or two at the nape.

I spent $50 on a synthetic lacefront last year, and there was no way in this world I was getting it to fit on my dome. I still have it, sitting in a damm box. I just can't do those wigs.

For big headed/thick haired ladies, I find the Sensationnel has the most generous cap size.

Which wig is it?

 

[aa9746]

Ladies who cornrow under your wigs, how long do you keep the cornrows in?

Did you ladies experience a lot of growth/retention so far with wigs? I am starting my wig reggie on March 1st.

All my growth comes from wigs because i keep my hair braided up for 4+ weeks. Low manipulation

 

[LadyPaniolo]

Which wig is it?

It was a Motown Tress, Lycra. The color I think is 1b? Or maybe a 2. Sigh. I cut the combs out of it right after I opened the package, I was so excited to get my little lacefront.

 

[LadyPaniolo]

Here are pics of the lacefront that never fit me I tried that sucker on and nearly cried. It just was not going to fit.

ETA: It's not nearly as long as it looks in the picture... my hair is actually longer than the wig.

 

[Sweet_Tea31]

I really wanted to join this challenge but I guess it is too late. But, I will follow along with you all.

Its soooo hard for me to keep my hands out of my hair. But I am going to be a good girl and keep my cornrows in for at least 4 weeks. I have been making my own wig and will be making my next one first tomorrow. I will be sure to post pics!

 

[BellaLunie]

has anyone ordered from gobunnys.com? I love those 2 wigs but in light of recent scandals with wig companies I'm scared to order

 

[SelfStyled]

Bella- I have ordered from gobunnys before with no problems at all. They have nice inventory.

 

[Lady S]

Did you guys know you can buy wigs from Amazon? I had never even thought to look there.

 

[Queen_Earth]

I debuted JoJo today!! She is a cutie! So I am 3 for 3 on the wigs I purchased from Hairsisters!! Cleopatra, JoJo, and BaliGirl were all winners!!!

 

[Aggie]

Ooooh, thanks for adding me in for 2010 CD. I had taken a short break and I have been wearing my wigs for the entire 2 months.

 

[Lanea87]

^^^ Synthetic wigs tangle. It happens. If you comb her out and then dip her a fabric softener/water mixture, she should be less tangly for a while at least. Don't know if you want to go through all that for Bali girl, though, as that wig sucks!

Heck I dont wanna go through that with ANY wig LOL....

 

[Bnster]

checking in!

 

[MochaEyeCandy]

Where did you get her from?

You can get La Jay here for $27.99

 

[mezzogirl]

i love this thread!!! You ladies taught me about Tammy and many others. Now, I have quite a few wigs and the only wig that looks good on me is Tammy. After reading thousands of reviews on Bali girl I took the plunge and ordered her and she gives me a cone head! She looks horrible - really horrible... I just dont understand why... I think I am going to stick with Tammy for the next few years.

I was thinking about your statement and realized that everyone's head and face shapes are different. I was just in the wig shop earlier this week and tried on a wig that the girl next to me loved. It looked good on me, did nothing for her. I have a round face she had a heart shaped face.

 

[Aggie]

I was going to post this as a seperate thread, but it's probably best if I stick it in here. What do you guys think of this wig. I have fat, round, pumpkin face if that means anything.

Hi LadyS, what is the name of this wig and where can I find it? This is gorgeous and I can certainly see myself wearing it.

 

[Bluetopia]

[Queen_Earth]

^^^^^ I know!! I been looking for her for the past hour....

Tori by Bobbi Boss. Golden Mart Beauty Supply has it for $34.99 http://store.goldenmartbeautysupply.com/bobom4to.html Mountain Beauty Supply has it for $31.99 http://www.mountainbeautysupply.com/_e/Short_Wigs/product/DCTORI/Bobbi_Boss_Synthetic_Wig_TORI_M447_.htm I've never bought from them so I can't vouch.

If you buy it, by the laws of the Wig Challenge 2010 thread, you have to send me a pic. And yes, I just made that law up.

 

[Ebonybunny]

This is the half wig which I have been wearing.

I have had it for over 3 months now! The hair is still very very soft on the top and in the middle, but the ends started looking raggedy so I braided, and dipped it in very hot (pretty much boiling) water, then I put white rain ($1 @ walmart) mousse on it, and let it dry over night.... and voila!

same here....bali girl have alot of layers that get on my nerves... but it doesnt make my head look funny... i have a big apple head, almost all th wigs fit on my dome.

 

[BellaLunie]

I never got around to posting my pics of the wigs I got.

New Born Free MLP 06 1B/30 Comes to MBL on me (I'm 5'1). I can't really part it but I love the curls

New Born Free ML 55 1B/30 comes to BSL on me

yes I know I have a wonky eye

Outre Tia 1B comes to APL. It reminds me of a braidout. I usually wear this clipped up. You can part it anywhere in the front

 

[LadyPaniolo]

I'm just gonna stick with the wigs I got... I can't be bothered to have to go through a federal case to get some more. (after the hairsisters drama SMDH)

I guess I fail this challenge, as I am currently braiding my hair up for a weave right now. Having access to it is making me fuss with my hair too much. Plus I have some hectic life circumstances that just popped up this week, and I will not have the time to mess with my head at all. I'm hoping a sew-in will let me keep my hair off my mind for a while.

Thanks! I guess you can part it but it's a little thin and you can see the tracks. I'll try and take a pic for you
