Just for fun please post pics of recent purchases or current favs. If u have pics of yourself wearing the wig that would b even better.

Is the 1st one creta girl? I'm wearing that right now! let me see if I can discreetly take a pic of myself... i'll be back!

Ok I added a pic of the Creta wig (its actually longer, I cut it) from Clairhair.com I have several others so I'll try to add more later.

I actually flat iron in the winter, though. The wigs have been getting me through the summer because I have my hair braided underneath and I workout in a scarf/baseball cap and sweat all I want then cleanse the hair while it's still braided. And when its time to leave the house, slap on a wig!

I dont wear wigs, but I entered to find out exactly when wig season is!
Winter for me means just the opposite--I can finally iron my hair and/or wear any other style in a humidity-free atmosphere- I can't wait :sigh:

I made some clip ins this weekend and am wearing them today at work. I love that they make my hair look extra full and give me longer layers in the front.
I used Outre Human Hair in Baby Soft Wave. I think it looks pretty good! I bought it and dyed it the exact same color as my own hair.

I will be wearing Yasmine (Outre)

...and my beloved Tammy (also Outre)!

chasturner84, how did u get Tammy to look like that? It almost looks like bobraz. I have Tammy but it looks silky.

I wear Model Model Malibu Twist with individual plaits in the front (this is last year):

angelgrl135 I love this wig...i would've never thought it looked like this based on the pic. besides cut it, did you do anything else?

Only side note is I havent 100% perfected my blending....dont stone me!!!

 

[Ariana4000]

I'm going to wear a straight bob wig. Everytime I buy a curly one they mat up.

 

[dyh080]

I want to wear a wig this winter but the longest I was able to stand it was about 25 days.

 

[BreeNique]

ohmy! so excited to get wiggy! nothing to add here, but it's a wig until November, and after thanksgiving a sew-in until xmas/ new years!!

 

[LadyRaider]

I haven't found a wig that's as pretty as my own curls.

 

[yaya24]

Get wiggy!! lol

I'll be pulling out my kinky curly stock wig from my stash that I purchased last fall.

Its from an online random vendor.

 

[kupenda]

I wanna wear a pretty half wig. I bought clips to make clip in pieces and I have hair thats already put in a bun for my phony buns (I have 3!). I'm doing some serious PSing this winter

I'm still not comfortable rocking long wigs (I dunno why) so I prefer short styles.

I just ordered It's a Wig - Awa:

To go along w/my staples:

Sensationnel HZ A015 :

Motown Tress - Bori:

Motown Tress - Chi (minus the tag, LoL):

I'm ready to protect my fine strands!!

I know what you mean! I switch off between wigs and headwraps (tied into a back bun) and tams/berets so that I don't get tired of one. Michigan winters are way too cold to have my hair out.

 

[yaya24]

@MzSwift

I am going to try headwraps, and tams/berets this season too.

Soo excited for the upcoming cooler weather!

Don't be mad if you get some PMs on how to rock them

 

[MzSwift]

yaya24,
I gotcha girl

 

[nisemac]

MzSwift I think that my be my issue...i've had short hair for so long, that i feel awkward in my half wigs. I have Creta Girl, which i thinned out and cut down so much its not recognizable. I also have Tracy and Celtic Girl but don't feel comfortable wearing them.

i think i'm going to look at the shorter ones...they look really cute and natural on you. i just wish there were some with more natural textures. there's a youtube demo with Mommy and Nadia wigs--the latter looking jacked up out of the package--until it was styled.

i guess if i were wearing straighter wigs, i could get them in various lengths...a wig transition.

 

[Royalq]

i cant find any wigs that i like. The top just always looks to high. How do you ladies wear the full wigs? I have a twa that is too short to put into braids. So when im at the BSS and put on the wig cap and a wig i always look tina turner-ish. I really wan to wear some wigs for the winter.... please give me some advice

 

[transitioning?]

MzSwift I have that sensational wig but its toooo itchy lol. I think its cuz its so flat to my head. You look good in the bori btw

Heres a pic of my bobos from its a wig collection. Today is the first time Ive ever wore a wig. I think this is going to be my new winter protective style along with crochet micro braids.

 

[transitioning?]

Royalq if u are having trouble making your hair flat go with a curly wig. The hair is big do that it hides any lumps. I know exactly what u mean about the top being poofy. Using a foam had to hold the shape helps to get rid of the fold caused by packaging

Nubenap22 your wig is cute and ur blends isny terrible. Might I suggest that you do a twist out on the front of your hair so that it looks curly like the wig hair. Also when I wear my half wigs I only leave about an inch of hair out before my headband/wig. This way there is less hair to worry about blending. hope I dont offend you by giving my 2 cents

That looks good. Is it human hair or synthetic?
