My wig is starting to get a bit frizzy, so I Guess it's time to flat iron it.
 
WOW! That's all from a wig regimen?? Great progress!
I'm an 98% PSer.. My favorite PS is wearing wigs. I've had several ppl question me today if this is a wig or not because they can't never tell the difference loll.

You did an absolute wonderful job! I would like these in my hair now because my wigs are killing my hair line. What kind of hair did you use & how many packs? :) NGraceO

This is happening to me. I need to give my edges and nape a break. I'm getting crochet braids installed on Tuesday. I'll be taking a break from this challenge.
 
Ladies how often do you find yourself having to replace your synthetic wigs. How long are they lasting you? And what are you doing to preserve the life of your wigs?
 
Took a break from my wigs. I got a curling wand in the mail today. My sis in law blow dried my hair on high and then I used my wand. It's not as poofy as I wanted (I was going for the curly fro look so I didn't str8en it first) but I'm hoping it will get bigger. For some reason I always do my hair most of the time with my lc shirt on lol....like it's going to make a difference hahaha.

It really depends on the length and the texture. Short synthetic wigs can last 6 months or more. Kinky ones last a long time too. The kinky wigs seem to get better with time. Long straight wigs only last a few good weeks before the tangles and kinks take over

Congrats on your 2 years! Your hair looks amazing.
 
Is anyone washing their synthetic wigs...curly ones? I think there's a thread on how to do this.
 
For my 3rd year natural I'm going on a 99% PS with my homemade wigs. I'm getting a weave next week but once that's out I'll return to using wigs.

I have been out of the loop lately but still wearing my wigs. I took a small break and wore my hair in curls from curlformers. I'm back in wigs now. I moisturize and seal daily or every other day using the LOC method and seal everything with grease. I am in about ten plaits under my wig. The main thing I have noticed my ends are softer and I have less split ends.
 
I haven't been very consistent lately with wigs. I wore my hair in the beehive braid (only wear the beehive braid while wearing wigs because it looks the flattest when wearing them) from March 1st to the 25th under my wig & then took the braid out on the 25th to let my hair breath and "rest". That rest has lasted from the 25th of march until now! I think 2 weeks is enough of a rest. I will get my hair braided hopefully sometime today :/
 
I found another wig I want I feel like I have a problem lol. It's mischa by carefree. I can never post pictures right so please forgive me.

Man I am so addicted. Today I bought.

Outre Onyx
Outre Tammy
Sensationnel Shantel
Glance Tropical Spice
Bobbi Boss Tori
And a few packs of hair for Havana twists.
 
I'm trying to get my hair sewn into a wig so I can use it after I take my braids out. I did sew a u part before but for some reason I can't get it right when I try to sew the hair into a full wig. I was going to try trebella wigs but it looks like she doesn't have any dates available. I have 2 bundles of this same texture in 16" and I'm trying to get something like this done

Anybody know any wigmakers I can use?

Please tell me how you are achieving this:look: Prettymetty

Mine are worn everyday though.
 
ojemba hi! I noticed you have the new spray by aphogee in your stash, how do you like it and how do you use it?

girlonfire. I love Aphogee products I use the leave in spray after I use the other products in the curly line, the poo and deep treatment. I love it.
