WIG CHALLENGE 2010

[karolmel]

I bought a synthetic lace front today. I am nervous about wearing it! It's kinda big/thick. I have never worn a lace front before. I bought a straight one about a year or so ago but never got the nerve to wear it out of the house! We will see what happens with this wig. I'd hate for it to be a waste of money.

Listen, I know exactly how that feels! People at church were staring at my knots on my lace front! I know they were. I then cut it after watching a couple of Youtube vids and styled it. It looks so much better know. Speaking of which, I better wash it today....

I love some of the new BSS's in Philly, they will style/cut and apply your lace front right in the wig shop. I LOVE that! But, I don't glue down, 'cause I have too treat my hair every night with the Jheri Juice.

Still wearing my wigs. I've been wearing Tammy for the past week because I can avoid using the flat-iron to blend. With keeping my hair braided under my wigs, I greatly underestimated the extent to which my hair was underprocessed.

Lady S - How about this one?

The bigger the hair, the closer to God. That is, I like it.

 

[BellaLunie]

I'm still wiggin it! I love it and can't wait for Dec for the big reveals. I also have a new discount code for blackhairspray it's for 20% off. I saw Bev's thread so I'm going to post the link from the vendor's forum so only paying members can get it.

Have any of you ladies purchased from clairhair? If so what has been experience with customer service and shipping?

I lot of people have had problems with hairsisters.com & clairhair. I haven't had a problem yet, but if I can get it anywhere else at the same price, I'm ordering there. I've started feeling like I'm taking a gamble anytime I order and I really don't like that feeling.

It sounds crazy, but there are a lot of cool wig sellers on ebay. Pretty much like going to your neighborhood wig store. New, in packaging, and the major brands like Outre, Sensationnel, Freetress, It's a Wig, etc. Make sure you check the ratings & feedback first, thou.

Back in the game took a break now I just order 2 new lace fronts one I already have in black just wanted to get one with highlights for the summer

I ordered OUTRe because their hair is SO soft I love the quality and the feel of the hair. I can't keep my paws out of it. LOL

I ordered Sindy and yet another Mohisha (Sindy in 1b/30 and Mohisha in 1b/33)

I will be rocking my lacefronts 3 weeks to four weeks a month a week break; to DEEP protein and Deep conditioner then slap another braid circle back up in it to rock the lace fronts.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Yeah, I went wig-scoping yesterday, to see if I could find something light enough and 'airy' enough to help me wig-it throughout the Summer Months.

I'll be Wigging it until 2011.

I hear you I kinda want to do this too, take it down in October though for my next relaxer. I'd have to wait for 1 month after to get my hair braided again to do it again

 

[BellaLunie]

JJamiah your hair is ! How do you fit all that under a wig?! I cant wait to be where you are

 

[Aggie]

I need a new natural looking human wig like yesterday. I have to go on a serious hunt for a beautiful one. Anyone has any ideas where I can get a nice human kinky wig online (not too expensive) please? TIA.

Thanks so much Bellalunie
My cousin braided it in a circle braid (as if weaving) but I just slap my lace front on it. Flat like a pancake

I'm still wiggin' it and loving it!!!

 

[chelleypie810]

Is this challenge still open?? I really really need some motivation to keep wigging over the summer. I have a half wig right now and I really want to wig thru june. Take a day or 3 break in July then back to wigging..but these wigs start to get so tangly over time. its irritating!

 

[lwilliams1922]

It's getting HOT. I'm starting to work out more.

gonna have to stop wigging while I work out (2-3days a week). I'll do a twist out when I'm working out then cowash and wig it up the next day.

I had been wearing wigs that were just passing their prime when I work out but it's just getting too hot for that and the 2 wigs I've been using are not happy either.

The only issue is that I tranisitoned to much highlights in my wigs recently. I'll now be alternating from dark brown #2 hair to light hair every other day.

 

[cinnespice]

I would like to join the challenge.
I have been using wigs since Feb.
Its time for a new one..one thats airy and will not make me feel like im fire.
I usually just braid up my hair underneath and put on a wig cap.
I also wash my hair 1-2x a week and dc every week. So far my hair has been growing a lot.

anyone knows if blackhairspray.com has a coupon code for memorial day?

Get some Fantasia Wig Cleaner - follow the directions, don't comb the piece until dry hang up in the bathroom and it should look better and feel better!

Checking in: Still wearing my wigs everyday.

That 20SALE expired May 26th. I was looking for one as well

 

[IDareT'sHair]

btw: I did get the 'netted' wig cap and that has helped out tremendously. Hopefully, I will have no problems wigging this summer.

I have been keeping my Moisture Levels at an all time High alternating between KBB Hair Milk and Dudley's PCA Moisture Retainer!

 

[bellesocialite]

I haven't been consistently wearing wigs for about 2 weeks now because I've been enjoying my just-relaxed hair. Back under wigs I go for next week

 

[Duchesse]

I've still be wearing wigs, and just took a break last week. I realized that I was wearing wigs for 2 months straight. My hair is getting thick and my newgrowth!

I need to get over my anxiety over people staring at the back of my head while I'm on a bus though. I could feel the burns, or maybe I'm paranoid.

 

[chelleypie810]

I'm still wigging it. I have 2 wigs coming on monday. I had 3 but one was out of stock..and I'm ordering 4 more thur..Don't judge me!

I get paranoid when I feel someone coming up behind me.

 

[soldierforhair]

Okay everyone so I have been wearing the same wig for the past 4 months and I love it. Really missing my hair but I know that my hair is growing and I also know that I love rinsing my scalp in my braids almost every day which is really wonderful...

 

[Belle Du Jour]

Here it is, my precious lol. I this wig. It looks way better on me than in the picture, of course! People really think it's my hair.

ETA: hey, where is there to get good wigs/half wigs anymore? Since hairsisters is a no-go, and GMBS is acting a fool, clairhair is out (front for hairsisters) and ebonyline charges too farking much! I need Sabina in my life :lovedrool: and I never got the famous Tammy!

Is this the one you're wearing in your siggy? Looks WAY better on you than the model

 

[sithembile]

For those of you who cornrow your hair under the wig, what do you do when you work out at the gym? Do you work out with the wig on your heads?
