I loved my wig regi! Low manipulation and lots of moisture.

Saturday: I cornrow my hair, M&S the cornrows and then cover with my satin cap
Sunday: Wash and DC the cornrows (protein and moisture), cover with my satin cap
Mon-Thurs: M&S the cornrows in the morning and before bed; then cover with my satin cap. I also water rinse or cowash whenever I feel like it.
Fri: Rock a big braidout for Friday date night, finger detangle and then start all over again on Saturday.

I rock a satin skull cap instead of wig caps. If I took off my wig at home I kept on the satin skull cap to prevent me from molesting my hair.

I used a scalp growth aid but I later learned that my hair grew the same without the aid and maintaining the same regi. My scalp mix was MT+sulfur+peppermint/EVOO/orange oil. No internal vitamins at the time.

Picture proof:

Every now and then I would rock mini braids for about 2 weeks and then go back to my wig regimen. HTH!
 
is it too late to join?

I was mostly wigging it from November last year. I had a sew in for the last 3.5 weeks. I took it down on Tuesday and now I'm back in a new full lace wig. I like this wig a lot. I think I may sew it down.. just don't have the time yet.
 
4th week in my wig. I think I will wear my kinky curly wig starting next week.

I took my beehive down earlier than expected because I wanted to wear my own hair to an outing on Friday. On Saturday I did my own braid up which turned out good and my wig is actually laying flatter. I might just continue to do my own braids and save my money. I hope braids last 4 weeks.

I usually do 5 cornrows all back when wearing my wigs. The last 2 weeks I've been lazy though.. I just part my hair down the middle and do 2 flat cornrows on each side. My wig lays flat.
 
I'm on board with the wig challenge. I bought a few that I plan to wear for the next year.....or until the wigs are no longer good.

FemmeCreole I do the same exact thing with the two cornrows on the side. My hair doesn't lay as flat with anything more than 3 corn rows
 
This is my current wig.

It's full lace, but it's not human hair. It's a mix that I can still straighten or curl if I want to.

I have this one at the moment. Its really cute and I got a lot of compliments on Saturday. Only problem is they didn't have the mixed colour I like 1B/30.

I may make this my staple wig lol. I don't switch around, I usually find the style I like and stick to it.
 
Very cute wig...what's her name Vanthie

Sidenote: I love the top half of that dress the model is wearing.

I'm so happy to see a thread about wigs! I just got Freetress Makeover and Outre Barbie. Synthetic hair has improved a little since I last wore wigs.

I'll be cheering on from the sidelines.

ETA: Freetress Make Over tangles like crazy.:nono:

And I got a tip to dip a straight wig in boiling water to get rid of the shine. :nono::nono:

I'm in! My edges are currently playing catch-up to the rest of my hair, in part because of the way it was cut and then a bad reaction to hair dye. So, I'm going to have to use braid hair for a couple of my braids, but eh, progress, right? I have a GLW split wig I've yet to wear out. I'll post pics sometime later.
 
This may be a dumb question but does anyone has concerns about the wig pulling hair from the hairline and neck line? The wig feels tight and I am concerned. Do I just need to loosen the elastic strap on the inside or am I dong something wrong?

I make sure my hairline and nape are moisturized and a little coconut oil and yes loosen the wig if it's too tight. It should fit to where it feels secure but not too snug or putting pressure on you head.

MzSwift, what does M & S mean?
 
I'm starting to feel self-conscious with my LFs :look:

I feel when I'm really close to someone, their eyes drift up towards my hairline or part. Am I imagining things? I try to pick wigs with natural hairlines and parts.

My black girlfriends tell me they look natural. One Asian friend always compliments me on my "hair." :look: Does this happen to anyone else wearing LFs? Maybe they are just trying to see if it's mine?
