I'm taking a break from the wigs for a bit. I am not retaining any length from not properly taking care of my hair underneath said wigs. I'm in Sengalese twists for now. My hair is the exact same length from last year. In aggy mode...

This bob wig I've been contemplating for months just got here and I'm underwhelmed:sad:. I don't care for the texture its indian remy yaki straight and all my units have been kinky straight (virgin Indian or Brazilian). The hair feels weird compared to a soft fluffy texture I'm used to. I washed it but didn't cut the lace, I'll see how it feels once it dries before I try to return it.

I need a shorter wig for the spring as I plan on rocking my twa this summer.

I blew my hair out to trim it two weeks ago but didn’t end up trimming because my ends were in pretty good shape. I’ve been wearing my hair slicked back in a ponytail since then :look: this is how my hair ends up suffering. I was doing good with my wig regimen for a good 3 months and then life happened. I’m going to get back on it Saturday.

I bought two new wigs that I need to dye and cut.

I've been doing a bun with braid hair but I hate how much time I have to devote daily to my hair. I will be going back to my wigs as soon as I purchase my pixie cut one.

I think I’m going through a life crisis.
At least I was smart enough to get a coupon code :lachen:


Girl, no! No you didn’t!

We got a problem. But I just moved up to my first human hair wig. I’ll never go back to synthetic. (Well, I’ll never buy one again cuz I got so many. Hehehe) Its so much lighter and the hair doesn’t lose its lustre. You have so many more styling options.

Hello all,

I have a question, I have looked at a youtube video and I still haven't figured this out. How do you get the front wig band to look not like a wig band so that the wig will look more natural? My wig has a front part and I have done the concealer thing but that band is still visible. I think I'm missing a step on something.

Are you talking about the lace? Is the wig a closure (just the one part) or a frontal (part it anywhere)? Was this something you bought at a BSS/online? If so, do you know the name of it? Or do you have pics?

@GodsPromises Since I think you're referring to just a closure I'll answer about that. The reality is that there is no one size fits all answer to that question, unfortunately, because different wigs require different tweaks. But this is a pretty good place to start:

Thank you, I brought it at the BSS but I’m not near the package. Here is a picture of me the wig. That line drives me crazy. I’ve tried concealer and nothing works. I just purchased scar away and will see if you hat helps

Ah, okay. I see what you mean. How do you secure your wig? Wig grip, got2be glue, etc? Using some got2be glue so that it lays more flush with your skin should do the trick.

Also, you have amazing skin! Gorgeous!

Awww thank you! I use a band in the back and got2be spray. I don’t have the actual glue. Could gel work or maybe a little more got2be holding spray in that spot. So I just need to get that lied down more?

Yes, I think you just need to get the parting space laid down more and then since you're already using concealer that should take care of the rest. Using some more spray should work, and pressing it down for a few seconds with a comb to really get it to hold.. The got2be "glue" is actually gel, glue is just the product name. IMO the gel and the spray work the same but I know some people prefer one or the other.
