WIG CHALLENGE 2014

Random note: I no longer wear anything between my wig and my hair. First I wore a stocking cap, then a satin bonnet, now nothing. Lol
 
I like the very thin knit hats from Claire's Accessories. They keep your hair out of your face and let your scalp breathe. I used to be a daily work wig wearer, and I couldn't imagine wearing my short work wig in the gym, sweating and stinking it up

Thanks I will try claire's for knit hats to work out in
 
Heven't been on in awhile...just made my first wig with a closure...can't wait to make another one...here are the pics.

I love love this wig. The ombre on the ends looks great too. How would u rate the quality of the hair you used. Any tangling or shedding?
 
Honestly y'all my mom is my hairspiration.. Her hair is to die for. <3 check out those natural tendrils tho ! Ughh *sigh*

How often do you let your hair breathe? I feel like I always have something ob my head: wig cap, wig, bonnet or baggie. Right now its just me and the celie braids :)
 
Finally my new wig will be here later today. Ordered 1.31, not sure if order from April Lace Wigs again. They took an entire month to celebrate the Chinese New Year delaying my delivery more than 5 weeks. Had they told me "no deliveries in the month of February" online, I would've either understood or not ordered. They didn't tell me anything until I write them multiple times via email. I am not pleased even though the quality & price is right.

For me daily this week because I'm on Vacation. On days when I have to work it's off from Morning- Afternoon and then I snatch it off as soon as I get home
 
I just washed my wig last night and razored off the frizzies and it looks fabulous! Brought it back to life! :up: I like how synthetic wigs look more "real" as you wash it.

I take mine off when I get home and I usually don't wear it on the weekends
 
Been meaning to cone in here with my review:

Attached is a pic of GLS 50 from friday night Hair .

Shipping: super fast!

Packaging: horrible. I ordered two wigs and both were in a simple plastic wig bag with no box! The were squished into the same tiny cardboard express mail envelope. One of the wigs smelled like a dank, moldy basement amd made my forehead red and itchy...and I never break out from anything.

GLS 50: The hair feels phenomenal. It feels and looks like human hair. It responds very well to a flat iron. It doesnt have that plasticky synthetic look. The hair itself is friggin awesome. On to the hair line...all of these wigs have that unrealistic moon shaped hairline thing going on. Ugh!!! But im making it work. Everyone seems to like it on me. Its pretty. The cap is a decent size but hen again I have a small head. There is a comb in the back that tends to flip upward and annoys me. Overall, i like the wig but will not repurchase. I have it in a #2 by the way. Dark hair looks witchy to me....but I digress...

I will review GLS 49 when I actually wear it.

Very cute!
 
I usually take my wig off as soon as I get home and let my hair get air, but this past week I have been so lazy that I have been sleeping in it, no more of that...this weekend I will be giving my hair a good washing and conditioning and then rebraid it. I might also bleach the knots on my wig because I really can't stand seeing the knots anymore.
Hope everyone is well.
 
My wig is here, and I gotta say, It's absolutely beautiful. I have it straight out the box. But I need to wash it in order for it to lay right. Pics coming up soon.
 
I ordered these two new wig and they arrived in 24 HOURS!

Both are from the Janet Collection - Deep Part Lace Front line – color 4/30. The straight one (Bisa) is my favorite because the parting is wider and looks super realistic. The curled one (Fresh) is also pretty, but I need to tweak the part. The Deep Part on these synthetic wigs are about 5 inches long, plus the hair is super long 24-26". I'm 5'11" and these wig reach my waist.

and of course I ordered 12 inches (even shorter than last time) and still got 5 extra inches of hair. What do I have to do to get medium length hair lol golly gee whiz
 
Ok so here is the wig, I cowashed it so it's wet in these pics:




Paid for 12 inches, but got 22'?


and another view:


I'll edit this when the hair is dry with pics of the texture.

Here are the specs of this wig in case you'd like to order. I did have an annoying experience 1x, but over all I like this company the best. I will order from them again. This wig is gorgeous.

PinkSunshine77 thanks for the pics. What color is your silk top?

I have italian yaki and love it but I would like a straighter coarse wig that I don't have to flat iron. Thanks

Anytime! I know I did pic overload. On this unit I got the dark brown lace. Tbh though the silk top is the same color it seems as the light brown lace combo. I'm dark skinned but my scalp is darn near white so it works either way.

I love pics! It gives us a good story. Thanks. I'll get the dark brown silk top then. I want it cut in a bob for the summer. So I will try 10 inches. Hope they don't give me 15!
