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

Some ppl have their human hair wigs for years. I think 2yrs maybe more if you take of it properly. I have synthetic wigs lasting more than a year.

depends on the type of human hair you buy too. there are brands sold in the beauty supply store that won't last long no matter how well you take care of it, and there are "virgin" hair suppliers whose bundles are hit or miss as well. Check youtube reviews of whatever brand your interested in before you buy.

Been wigging it for 2 months. This is soooo much easier than braids as a PS. I'll probably do a length check somewhere around May or June

Jobwright I like the coarser textures because it matches my hair better so I don't order from China/aliexpress since its hit or miss but Senghori shells natural rhythms is good if I blow dry but don't flat iron my hair, relaxed rhythms is good if I straighten. Both don't hold curls well tho but I just bump my ends so good for me.

I have my eyes on kinkycurlyyaki but the hair keeps getting backordered so I haven't ordered yet.

There's hair on hisandhers.com that I've been eyeing, it's not virgin but the reviews I've seen so far look promising.

These are all for wefts since I know how to make u part wigs. I don't have any virgin hair vendors because I wear Futura fiber regular wigs. HTH

^^^^sounds like Hebrew or some other foreign language. Thanks for the insight but I'm still lost. I guess I'll go to the wig shop and try not to get duped. Oh and start back at the beginning of this thread and educate myself. Thanks BLESSED1

I got my hair flat ironed and trimmed last week. I am enjoying my real hair for a little bit. Will probably go back to wigs mid-April. I want to make a kinky curly u-part. Sorry if the pic looks crazy. I wore a ponytail to work and just took it down to snap pic.

@ojemba, No tips needed, the wig is perfect and you look beautiful in this wig! Which one is this one? Did you do any cutting on the wig, because it frames your face so nicely.

Thank you!

The only thing I did was Clip a lill stringy ends, u left the bangs as it came because I like them long. This unit is the ps000-s

I curled her today- I love her
I'm thinking that's doing wigs for the rest of the year will be a Breeze

ojemba, thank you! I like the curls too! Looks like you made a good choice in this wig, nothing but cuteness going on! I can see how wearing this one will be a breeze! I really like it, but I'm afraid to take the plunge, the cost...argh!

I need to make this wig last one more week before replacing, so I soaked it last night in warm water with only clarifying shampoo - no conditioner - and let air dry. No products....

it looks beautiful today with tons of body!

Ok, so i've been eyeing this challenge for a long time and am finally joining. I just made a short curly u-part wig, I will have a crochet braid closure so I don't have any hair out. As RATCHET as that sounds, it looks cool and I will post a picture. I really love it and hope it will make it easier to take care of my hair. I plan to re-do my cornrows underneath every 2-3 weeks :)

Please share when you do get this style I can't picture it would to see how it turns out!

Great wigs ladies! I've been twisting my hair underneath my wigs so far so good! Somebody asked about smell I wash or cowash my wig every 7-10 days if I wear it to the gym I normally don't but if I can't go home before my workout I put it up in a pony w a scarf. I cowash more than anything bc the hair I have is like AA hair and requires moisture hth

Keep it up! You'll be there in no time.
I missed my journey from APL to BSB because I was so busy rocking wigs. In July, I was APL and by OCT/NOV I was BSB.

Will do! If I remember, :lol:!
I'm taking a break before wigging it and just wearing my own hair for a bit.
