I am contemplating life after the Winter Wig i.e. if/when will I break out the Phony Buns??? :yep:

And/Or How long will I stay in my Protective Hurr.:look:

I am enjoying having my whole-head covered right now and the ability to apply moisture and have everything totally 'covered'.

What do you have in now? an install?

Summertime the Buns definitely work, keeps the hair off your forehead and your hair off your neck. So for me this works, I also like the Lacefronts that are short in the back.

The one I have in my pics is the UPA Clip H14, Human Hair, Short Curl, 8" for $17.99. www.laceflair.com


Hey Doll,

Thanks for sharing the laceflair website. I ordered the UPA Clip H03, Wet & Wavy, 10inch for $29.99. I was surprised the longer hair was on the expensive side, since this will be my first attempt at a phony pony. I've decided to order from laceflair because, they had the most beautiful barrettes. I know this thread is a bit dated, but hey it never hurts to say thanks.

This is my afro kinky UPA clip.

The color didn't match exactly so I later rinsed it in some Bigen to get a better match.

Miss Tress- your post reminded me to dig out my mane clip. I put it away in the winter, but this is the perfect time to dig it back out now that the weather is getting warmer.

Wow! Thanks for all the posts. I didn't think I could find anything like this anymore. Sally's use to sell the barrettes with the hair attached (it was by Revlon) but they disappeared over 20 years ago and these drawstring pp took over.

Thanks ladies.

I keep a baggied bun 'neath a phony pony (unless I have it wrapped in a decorative scarf). Glad to see this thread. Subscribing. :yep:

I tried my first attempt at a sew-in this past weekend, needless 2 say, IT DIDNT WORK:lachen:! now I have this wefted weave that I still didnt cut, so I just may rock a pony tail like I used to back in the day. It did help with growth and my ends.

I agree, that looks really good Adora!

I've been shying away from phony pony's. Attaching them caused me trouble before my Hair Journey and I just haven't the guts to revisit them. not to mention my delicate edges that are looking so much better these days. Anyone have any brand or attachment suggestions for a fine-haired relaxed lady?

i just started wearing my phony pony I bought 2 years ago and I'm already hooked on how easy it is! I'm fine haired and relaxed and want to use it to keep my hands out of my hair. :wallbash: I have a drawstring with two combs and I don't pull it too tight and use 2 bobby pins to keep it secure. I'm on the look out for breakage though. :detective:

Hi all. It seems that I recall seeing posted somewhere (don't remember if it was here or not) that someone described a way to thin out a too dense phony pony. I have found one that matches my hair but like most have mentioned, it is too dense. I'd like to thin it out but I don't remember if the recommendation is to clip some of the hair from the tracks or just remove some of the tracks from the netting and then resew. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Just cut some tracks out, like very few layers, snip right close to the base of the pony. Keep on snipping until the density seems about right.
