winter for me means protective styling. I just bought 2 new wigs for the winter. I can't wait to try them.

Just for fun please post pics of recent purchases or current favs. If u have pics of yourself wearing the wig that would b even better.

Here are mine:

Is the 1st one creta girl? I'm wearing that right now! let me see if I can discreetly take a pic of myself... i'll be back!

Ok I added a pic of the Creta wig (its actually longer, I cut it) from Clairhair.com I have several others so I'll try to add more later.

I actually flat iron in the winter, though. The wigs have been getting me through the summer because I have my hair braided underneath and I workout in a scarf/baseball cap and sweat all I want then cleanse the hair while it's still braided. And when its time to leave the house, slap on a wig!

I dont wear wigs, but I entered to find out exactly when wig season is!
Winter for me means just the opposite--I can finally iron my hair and/or wear any other style in a humidity-free atmosphere- I can't wait :sigh:

I made some clip ins this weekend and am wearing them today at work. I love that they make my hair look extra full and give me longer layers in the front. :grin:
I used Outre Human Hair in Baby Soft Wave. I think it looks pretty good! I bought it and dyed it the exact same color as my own hair.

I'm still not comfortable rocking long wigs (I dunno why) so I prefer short styles.

I just ordered It's a Wig - Awa:


To go along w/my staples:

Sensationnel HZ A015 :


Motown Tress - Bori:


Motown Tress - Chi (minus the tag, LoL):


I'm ready to protect my fine strands!!

I want to wear a wig this winter but the longest I was able to stand it was about 25 days.

I know what you mean! I switch off between wigs and headwraps (tied into a back bun) and tams/berets so that I don't get tired of one. Michigan winters are way too cold to have my hair out.

@MzSwift

I am going to try headwraps, and tams/berets this season too.

Soo excited for the upcoming cooler weather!

Don't be mad if you get some PMs on how to rock them :grin:

MzSwift I think that my be my issue...i've had short hair for so long, that i feel awkward in my half wigs. I have Creta Girl, which i thinned out and cut down so much its not recognizable. I also have Tracy and Celtic Girl but don't feel comfortable wearing them.

i think i'm going to look at the shorter ones...they look really cute and natural on you. i just wish there were some with more natural textures. there's a youtube demo with Mommy and Nadia wigs--the latter looking jacked up out of the package--until it was styled.

i guess if i were wearing straighter wigs, i could get them in various lengths...a wig transition.

i cant find any wigs that i like. The top just always looks to high. How do you ladies wear the full wigs? I have a twa that is too short to put into braids. So when im at the BSS and put on the wig cap and a wig i always look tina turner-ish. I really wan to wear some wigs for the winter.... please give me some advice

Royalq if u are having trouble making your hair flat go with a curly wig. The hair is big do that it hides any lumps. I know exactly what u mean about the top being poofy. Using a foam had to hold the shape helps to get rid of the fold caused by packaging

Nubenap22 your wig is cute and ur blends isny terrible. Might I suggest that you do a twist out on the front of your hair so that it looks curly like the wig hair. Also when I wear my half wigs I only leave about an inch of hair out before my headband/wig. This way there is less hair to worry about blending. hope I dont offend you by giving my 2 cents

That looks good. Is it human hair or synthetic?
