Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Poutchi I wore crochets from 12/09 to 8/10. My hair grew but was extremely dry.
I had the Freetress water wave hair and it doesn't lend itself to getting wet. I would clean my scalp with a wash cloth. They looked like hers.
YouTube - Crochet braids
They're ok for 3 weeks maybe but I really need to get down into that scalp area w/ some conditioner and water. I'm never doing that long term again because even though my hair grew and no real damage was done, I really feel I would have had better results if I had been able to cowash one to two times a week. The crochet braids Miss Cosmic posted w/the Bob Marley hair looks like they would wash beautifully.
miss cosmic I like them. I wish I had known about this hair when I was wearing my crochets.

Thanks Ms. Mimi for answering. I saw that the lady was not actually shampoing her hair... this might work out for me since I am in canada and it is getting kinda cold anyway for me to be wetting my hair often.
Am I wrong to think that the DMM method would help me not to have dry hair when I take the crochet braids out? Since it is not going to be rinse out at all, them the DC will stay longer in my hair thus the hair will stay moist longer. But I assume you can still sprits the roost ( your hair) with a moiturizing spritz every day to combat dryness.

I was thinking keeping them in for 6 weeks at a time but maybe I will only be able to keep them for a month at a time and use 2 weeks to condition my hair back to health and put a new set. We will see.

Thanks again

Thanks NikkiQ for the recommendation. I haven't tried any of the Profective products, but I'll try to pick up the moisturizer tomorrow.

And oh- I forgot to congratulate you for making SL!! That's so exciting! I too found out last week at take down that I'm also SL, but I didn't think it was "big enough" to share on the forum lol. Anyway, congrats girl!

Can i just ask, those that wear lacefront wigs, what do you do with the lace? Do you just cut it off and wear as a normal wig? I see some nice LF but i don't want to glue them & i wonder how people are using them as regular wigs?

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

I just put my braids in last night. Tomorrow is wash day for me so I'll be using diluted shampoo & conditioner to wash. I took the combs in the back of my wig so I won't have to risk getting breakage. I'm massaging my scalp w/ jbco daily too. So far so good. I like the ease of this method.. so lovely & tomorrow I will pick up some braid spray and a wig cap. I think I'll start baggying under my wig too. So many things you can do under a wig LOL!

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

This thread reminded me to check out a short "halle" type cut or a natural hair type wig to wear on the daily. Currently all my wigs are long - Diva wigs lol

That Wig is BEAUTIFUL MS.MIMI!!!

Checking in.....I am absolutely loving this routine. It has been 6 weeks, this coming weekend will make 7 weeks and this routine is EASY!!!!!!! I love it. I only have the one instant weave. I need a full cap wig.
My next wig is London Girl by Freetress. I think they will look really cute with winter caps and hats. I'm going to purchase two and cut them both alittle. One I'm going to wear side bangs and the other straight china bangs.

Check out the ladies at the bottom of the page.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Poutchi oh gosh yes...I think the DMM will help combat the dryness but at the time I didn't know anything about it. Crochet braids didn't dry out my hair hair I was not putting enough moisture on my hair that did it. It was a sick cycle I fell in. Because I had the Freetress water wave that couldn't get wet ----->I would use very little (& I do mean VERY LITTLE) moisturizing spray or oil on my scalp or hair because I didn't want it to attract dirt or built up------>because I couldn't clean the crochet well and get the Freetress wet. I also left those thing in 6-8 weeks at a time with just washing my scalp with a washcloth damp with water and alittle conditioner. When I took them down I would hot oil, wash and braid up again. Just a tiny amount of coconut oil on my hair and scalp.

Ese88 Yes cut the lace off no matter how you are wearing it. Here are two videos that may give you some ideas.
In this one she wears a Lf w/o glue or tape. She cuts the lace prior to taping. You can start at 2:45 and go from there.

mrs.houston Thanks! I can't wait to wear her. I love the wig you selected. We have similar tastes because your wig looks like the one I'm wearing now, Arcadia Girl.

Nasdaq_Diva You have some really nice wigs selected. And those Halle cut ones...they are sharp! Watch out there Ms.Berry!


MSHoney26 You did some work didn't you? Very pretty and sexy selection. What impressed me so much with your selection is all the wigs look like it's the same wig but curled slightly different, it makes for a very realistic collection. One was loose waves and curls the next slightly curly and the last wet and wavy.

Why did they name that wig NeNe? That was wrong

Oooh that's what I like to hear! I was watching other ladies pics of her and I was like, "oh yes, she is mine!" What color do you have her in? Did you cut it?

Nasdaq_Diva You have some really nice wigs selected. And those Halle cut ones...they are sharp! Watch out there Ms.Berry!

Thanks babe! The 'halle' cut was my style from ages 15-20 (my relaxed hair days) Girl I used to R-A-W-K that cut, you hear me lol...

I like it alot on you. It's not as big as some women on BHS (blackhairspray) were talking about. It looks really good. It looks like one of those wigs where the older it gets, the better it looks.

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

^^^Yeah that's it! Pardon the spooky pics lol. And that's without blending my hair in with it or anything. The top is kinda cut into layers so some of the shorter pieces just flopped over like bangs. I love it.

I have been switching up my deep conditioner quite a bit lately and I am currently using Jason Naturals Biotin thin to thick conditioner on my hair. This left my scalp really nice and tingly. I this one but the bottle is so small.

Question: So, I dont know how to braid. I'd really like to get a beehive type braid to wear under my wigs. How much would you be willing to spend on that?

I'm on craigslist trying to finds some ideas..

Re: I am adopting LadyPanialo's reggie.. Deep Moisture Method, Wig and ALL for 12 mon

Good luck ladies..I wore a wig for about 9 months last year to early this year and my hair grew leaps and bounds..I just kept it braided and moisturized under the wig cap...

I'd say between $15-30. Depends on if they add hair to it or not. My stylists usually charges $25-30 but since I've been going to her for a while, she only charges me $15.
