Braidout on a wig???

[MsAminta]

Hi everyone! This is my first time posting (although I am a platinum status lurker lol!). Since I've followed the boards, this is my 2nd time going natural...chopped in July, after transitioning for almost 9 months.

Anywho, I wanted to know if anyone has done a braidout on a wig to make it look like a braidout on natural hair?

there were some tutorials on youtube for the Beshe "Prada" wig.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qg6Dn45pdM8 this just shows styling of the wig, but you can tell from the texture that you could do a twist/braid out.

hope that helps a bit.

Is it possible to get a kinkier texture?

i'm still a wig novice, but i've only seen kinkier textures in weave hair...but one could always make their own 'quick weave' wig with the tracks. There's lots of tutorials on youtube.

La Jay Express Weave half wig reminds me of a braidout.

It was longer. I cut it.

And cut it more.

just got a human hair wig from hairwigharlem.com Euro Collections Afro curl wig matches my hair texture after a twist out perfectly.

its a full wig, but i just twisted the front of my hair while damp and then took loose and twirled my hair with the wig to blend.

straight out ofthe package...still have to fluff.

nisemac That is so pretty and clever^^. Thanks for enlarging the pic. I'd just gone to fetch my magnifying glass when I returned to find the pic had grown to a visible size. Thanks!

Nonie thanks! i'm just tickled it matches....i've bought about 6 wigs/half wigs and this is the first one that i don't feel weird about.
