Capri was officially a HIT for Derby weekend! I had all the fellas fooled!

She is extremely easy to blend (I put a rinse in my hair to match the 1B---I wanted to go dark and sexy ), long and glamorous. I sooo want to wear her daily but I think it would be a bit too much for day-to-day

^^^AH gorgeous! Barbie how often do you wear half wigs?

Thanks lady! I'd say about once or twice a week now. I used to wear them a lot more often, but I'm so active right now getting ready for summer that I'm sweating and co-washing a LOT, so I have issues with blending (don't wanna pull out the flat iron everyday). So I usually save them for the weekends when i go out or maybe one day during the workweek if I get sick of wet bunning and twistouts.

Yasmine! I'm n love. I will take more pics with my regular camera after work. I'll probably buy 2 more.

 

[taz007]

^^^ Ohhhhhh. I love the Yasmin. It looks really beautiful on you!

Off to get me one or two ...

 

[Vintageglam]

Ladies do you have any Half-wig rec's for 4a/b natural hair.... I want to avoid heat damage also so will most likely roller-set/ braid out to blend.....

TIA

@ Chelley I knew you'd love Yasmine! You look gorge

 

[SelfStyled]

Look at you Chelley- that Yasmine was made for you. You look gorgeous. What color did you end up going with?

 

[havilland]

Here is Coconut Girl by Freetress. I got her in a 1b... I think I should have done a 2 but I am still getting the hang of this color thing, because in some brands a 2 is too light but 1b is too dark I'll figure it out though.


I was a little apprehensive when she first came in the mail, but with a little tweaking and some encouragement from Latoya28 I went ahead and tried her out today and actually really liked her

I took some tips from Muffinismylovers (April) on Youtube and used the small perm rods in the front of my hair last night so that I could blend the hair together better and that worked out really well. You can see the texture pretty well in pic # 3

I would like to know what you ladies think, did I pull her off ?

i think that looks great on you...very natural

 

[Duchesse]

Chelly, you look so pretty! Yasmine looks better on other people to me. I have it, but I always feel like I have to wear a hat.

 

[chelleypie810]

Look at you Chelley- that Yasmine was made for you. You look gorgeous. What color did you end up going with?

I got the 2.

 

[bellesocialite]

Chelley-Yasmine looks great on you. I'm convinced I need her now. I like how you have your bang out.

 

[Smiley79]

Chelley that half wig looks so beautiful on you girl!!!!

 

[gabulldawg]

Barbie your hair looks GREAT! That's a good looking half wig. I'm tryin not to buy anymore hair, but I may have to get this!

 

[Smiley79]

Needed to blend it a bit better, but overall I liked this one...Manhattan Style "Goodwill"

 

[gabulldawg]

^^^ Looks good, smiley!!! You're gonna make me spend too much money on half wigs!!!!

 

[Supergirl]

fun thread!

 

[ronalisa]

I am doing protective styles for now while I'm babying my edges. I got these wigs from a local store, the last is a full wig.

 

[Belle Du Jour]

Jessica is my staple these days. However, it only lasts about a month with daily wear. I also have a fresh Jewelry that I have to break out soon.

i would try Chandra from Outre, Lyon Girl from Freetress, TAmmy from Outre (if you like big long hair)....those are all half wigs you can braid or twist your leave out with and be fine.

or you can always just wear a headband and not worry about blending.

 

[naturalmanenyc]

I ordered Celtic Girl and Nia Girl, patiently waiting for my shipping confirmation from blackhairspray.com

Celtic Girl

Nia Girl

Try Polly by Outre.

 

[Smiley79]

I love Nia Girl and can't wait to order it in color...I plan on doing a raffle/giveaway on my blog for all subscribers and I'm torn between offering Nia Girl, Jessica or the Oprah wig. lol, go figure, I love that wig a lot.

 

[chelleypie810]

I need some type of shaping cream or gel for my edges that don't make them too stiff. Any suggestions?

 

[Smiley79]

I've used the Elast QP glaze (don't use too much, can get a bit shiny) and I tried Ateyaa's recommendation, Designer Touch, I really like it.

Please let us know if you do! I would definitely be interested!

 

[chelleypie810]

contemplating on buying another yasmine. I love her so so much! I would get a 4 this time b/c the 2 is a little dark..I'm thinking about buying a rinse so that it will blend a little better...

ETA: In my bathroom where the lighting is bad..the color looks so off but in the car which is in the sunlight my hair looks fine..I'm not really sure what to do.
