NO. I just threw it in the trash..I looked like someone out of the caveman era:perplexed

I'm going to try 1/2wigs named polly or malibu twist..if i keep looking crazy I will just stick to weaves:sad:
 
It depends on personal preference. All the ladies on here have different methods. I alternate between doing a baggy and a netted wig cap (I am in search for a satin one or a satin beanie if any ladies know where I can find one). I take out the combs on my wigs because they hurt my head. Then I just smooth back my edges, pin my hair back and then put on the wig cap. I then slide the wig in place, use a couple of pins on the sides to hold it in place and then put on a headband. That's it! I haven't really gotten blending down to a science yet and I am not using any heat to straighten as of yet so that's why I use the headband. HTH!

How do you install these? I'd like to switch my PS from phony pony (i baggy my own pony underneath the phony one) to a new half wig I bought today (Sensationnel HZ 7004) and I have some questions as this is my first time.

Do you cornrow, baggy or wear a wig cap on your hair under the half wig?
What about the piece you leave out? I have 2" BKT'd roots and texlaxed ends - trying to not use any heat styling.

Thanks in advance for helping out this half wig newbie!

does anyone know where to find half wigs online in lighter colors? my hair is like a strawberry blonde color...maybe even copper lookin thanks :D
 
This is "Peach" by Newborn Free. I like this wig a lot. I had to put some cornstarch on it to take away a little bit of the shine and it's still pretty shiny, but I love it.

This is "Doris" by Carefree. I fell in love with this wig when I saw it online and I happened to see it in the BSS today. It is a little pricier than the wigs I usually buy, but it is well worth it. It's very natural looking.

Ok ladies I'm trying it again. :lol: This one was 14.99 at a local BSS so I threw it on while playing with my make-up. Excuse the make-up, Im not good yet. So I will practice getting this wig placed correctly. And then I'll update again with one I paid 24.99:spinning: I just love it too:look: in the package.

I've got to go back and see, but I highly doubt it. Girl you are to phyne. But, speaking of lookin' stupid in a HW, what choo know about I threw away (yeah, I said it, "threw away") my Mono Pam. And the real funny thing is it is the main wig folk say is "just like" my hair. :eatme: That thang looks like a rug, a way heapa thick rug. Humph. Easy Ida here I come.

MMmm, mmm, mm, this is just a sexy *&^)_ wig! And yeah, I love the shine too! I wonder, can any woman look bad in this one??? Doubt it! Work it, girl. Can't wait to get settled and unpacked so I can work mine too. Baby girl asked how I am going to wear these HW's I'm buying in the FL heat but 1) It's cold as a witches tit right now; and 2) I'll handle it :grin:.

Girl thank you so much! You coulda slid Mono Pam my way- you looked so good in that one too. Did you throw it away because it was umanageable or did you just not like the way you looked in it?
 
Dang girl, SelfStyled, you know you are correct. I would have LOVED to send it to you, shoot. I only wore it twice too.

I felt like a big-headed thang in that wig. You see though it may be my texture, my hair is no waaaayy that thick. It was so, so, BIG, you feel me? Dang I wish I was thinking. But, you know what, I was embroiled in the middle of relocating to Florida a couple of weeks ago and all I could think was, "If ya don't like it; don't take it". I wasn't on line much during the packing or else you prolly would have told me to send it. Shoot. :spinning:
 
I saw Sensationnel T004 on a few people (youtube) and decided to buy it finally. I have not yet worn it outside though since i'm in two strand twists until April (crochet braids).

That is one of my favs too - Maya II
It's labeled "human hair" but I do still think it's a synthetic blend.

I like T008 a lot too - although the color is off. It was to be a #2 (per my order & the packaging) but it looks more like #4 to me.
