WIG CHALLENGE 2014

[HairPleezeGrow]

My wigs were home when I came home from work! The one without bangs I need to figure out how to make it look less wiggy...I'm feeling the red one most. The one with blonde I like also.

Love the wigs! I've been so indecisive about what kind of wig to get! I keep going back and forth between full lace or lace front, yaki, kinky etc. I think I'm just balking at paying so much. *Sigh* I suppose I'll hold off until I make up my mind

Here are my plaits done on freshly washed hair. So happy about the length I am at right now. Longest it's ever been in my life!


OAN: I may go pick up another Creta girl wig today so I can have one I use only for buns/updos, and one I wear down. That wig is proving to be my staple. Yay! NGraceO

How do you do an updo on this wig NGraceO? I've never heard of that. Thanks.

I say, start cheap. Get a couple of synthetic units that you like first, then work your way up once you have clarity on what you prefer.

Hey HoneyBadger ! I'm not sure on which page, but I posted some pics of buns I've done on this wig somewhere in this thread. Hope that helps!

I've done synthetic wigs and I'm trying to move to human hair ones. I've only made a half wig with some human hair but I'm debating what kind of lace wig to buy since I feel it makes more sense to buy a wig as opposed to buying decent hair and then having to sew it on. Such problems to have lol

Gotcha. I just purchased my first lace wig after usually doing the same thing (buying the hair, making my own). I purchased it on eBay after seeing it on another challenger from last year. I just wish it would get here already.

Yes, I think the hardest part is finding a good vendor that will give you your moneys worth

Right. I hate the whole trial and error idea.

Ditto about trying synthetic wigs. Alternatively you could try some cheaper aliexpress hair just to try different styles and when you find what you like you could spring for a quality one in that style. Just a hint when you search on there list the findings in order where the ones that have been ordered the most are first. That way you can read the reviews from past buyers and you won't be the guinea pig

Absolutely! I'm just so wary of aliexpress. I had quite the time dealing with them last year over some things I ordered for my wedding. Some of the nonsense they tried to pass off was amazing LOL. I think I may go with mylacewigtrend.com or go with two sellers on aliexpress

Nooo i was considering ordering from aliexpress, should I cancel that idea?

I wouldn't completely rule them out, some people have had great experiences with hair vendors. I'm sure someone could PM you a decent vendor, it's just that people tend to not like to share that info publicly

Go to BHM to the wig or weave section and the newbie section and search for the texture you want and there will be reputable vendors from everywhere

Another amateur question: are the wig combs supposed to go through the wig cap (poking holes in the cap) or under the cap (directly on your edges)? This will help a lot!! TIA!

 

[Evallusion]

Just placed my first order with fridaynighthair. Can't wait till they arrive.

 

[Prettymetty]

Took out my wig braids so I could cowash my hair but dh insisted that I wore my braidout for a few days. He loves my hair more than I do lol. Heres yhe braidout pic

Fridaynighthair has some purty wigs.
I bought the GLS49 a year and a half ago and the hair is sooo soft.
I would buy from them again but I have a big head and the wig didn't fit me right so I would wear it like a half-wig but since I had highlights in mine, it didn't look quite right to me erplexed

I'm not exactly sure what you mean.
