I bought two wigs & a closure in the last 24 hours :look: :lol:
A kinky straight wig, an Indian curly, & a Chinese closure
Once I bleach all the knots I'll be back to wearing wigs for at least 2 months :up:

I just bought a lace wig named Karisa. She's sexy. I will post pics soon.

Her name is actually Gisselle and I paid 50 bucks for itt just to find it online in a cuter color for 28bucks... a little mad but oh well I will buy that one too! If I could find that daggone receipt I would take it back and get 2 different wigs or store credit.

Charlotte, is that a glueless lacefront and if so can you give some tips about applying i. Also can you PM me a close up pic of the front part section. I want to buy a lacefront that Africanexport recently reviewed and I am soooooo scared to pay that much money and have my hair look like these horrible lacefronts that I see. Your hair looks great.

The wig that I purchased before was out of stock. I finally found one I want to try. I hope I like it. I have purchased 2 or 3 before that I didn't like so I donated them to a cancer center.

I should get this one next week. I will wear it over the weekend to try to get used to it. If I can get used to this one then maybe I will buy another.

This is the Mia hh wig by Sleek

Hey polished07,

Looks great!

Do you know if this hair can hold curls?

This seems to be a problem for some brands of kinkier-textured lace wigs based on some YT reviews.

I'm in! My hair's been suffering from breakage lately and I think using a harder protein combined with wigging will make a big difference.

It does hold set curls ie. flexirods satin rollers but not curling iron ones that's the only con to this wig it's super soft and looks like Afro textured hair I love it!

Count me in. Wearing wigs is something new for me but I just purchased three nice wigs. One is from RPGshow and the others are from a local wig shop. I will be wigging it in 2013.



Forgive me if you have already answered this question but which wig did you purchase from RPG show?

Hello Ladies! I have a couple new wigs that I am trying but I need to know if itchiness around the perimeter of the wig, where the lace is, is normal. How do I get the lace part (I'm wearing half wigs) to not be so itchy. I tried a doo rag under and a regular stocking cap over my cornrows. Neither helps with the itchiness. Am I not wearing it right?

Here's is a pic of the one I am wearing this week. I really like it because I can braid out the front, I don't have to use any heat on my hair and the braid out lasts several days without having to rebraid and manipulate too much. But I really need to get this itchiness under control!

Ok, the elastic bands on my favorite lace front wig kept releasing ....giving me wobbly head so I stretched, cut off the hooks and sewed down each side to create a "elastic band" method that people use with full lace wigs – now my wig is secure and lays flat! :)

I am in. I just purchased 4 wigs in Feb and I have only worn one. I have been wearing wigs for the last couple of years and I really need to get back to taking care of my hair so this is a great opportunity. I will post my regimen later this week.

Just learned how to braid my hair in a circle. I need to practice a bit more though because the middle is elevated. Maybe I'll start braiding from the middle out instead of the other way around.

I used Darcy's Pumpkin condish and my hair is super moisturized right now.

just got my cece and estelle (synthetic lf) and about to throw estelle on and head out.
Does HUMAN HAIR last longer then synthetics?
I'd be willing to invest in one if it lasts atleast 10+ weeks
