I have found her!

[Supergirl]

I want her! (the wig)

This one is from gmbshair.com & seems to only be offered in this color. Also, it's a lace front and I don't know wigs too well, so don't want the hassle of trying to do a lace front.

If anyone knows where I can find a wig that looks like this one (long bob, side part, no bangs) and is offered in a wider color range, please let me know.

By the way, this one is by Zury and available @ gmbshair.com

ETA:

Here's a similar one. This one is by Outre and @ blackhairspray.com (in case anyone is searching in the future and is interested)

I have no idea where to find it, but it's a cute cut and the color is nice too.

I saw that wig somewhere in Oak Cliff!

International Wig has such a wide selection with so many colors that I'm sure if you just browsed the site, you'd find what you wanted: http://www.internationalwig.com/Wigs_s/3.htm

Where chica?

 

[PearlyCurly]

i like the color!

 

[Supergirl]

^^I'm not daring enough!

You can always get a longer wig and cut style it to this one or have a beautician style it that way. It is a cute bob in any case.

OT but @ Pearly Curly where did you get that feather flower? I so love it.

You know you're BOUT IT! I'm gone wait till you get desperate to get that wig then I'm gonna lure you to Oak Cliff!

 

[HealthyHair2007]

Check www.especiallyyours.com . They have a good selection of styles to choose from.

Maybe something like this would work.

^^I actually looked at that one earlier today and it did catch my attention. It's close, but not quite. But thanks

Oh I am cool with coming to the Cliff, no luring necessary. I don't live too terribly far from there anyway. And most of my aunties live in the Cliff.

 

[longhairlover]

i'm no wig expert, but can you dye the wig?

 

[Supergirl]

Okay, duh! After all of that, I realized that the box I thought was for selecting the quantity was actually the box for selecting the color. So I've got one on the way! Yay

i'm glad it worked out

 

[Supergirl]

me too, thanks! I've been reading that I don't necessarily have to use adhesive with a lace front wig, so looks like I'm good to go with this one.

Just doing a little update:

I received this wig and it is so gorgeous, but the front part looks fake. So this will be a "running to the store" wig. Sorry, I don't have a pic of me with this one.

Elise is cute. (I had a thread about Elise shortly after this one)The cap is way too small, so I got smart and used it as a half-wig. I like it, but I'm not in love with it. The sides hang too far from the face IMO. I wore this one to work on Friday and it was a fun/funny day! My workplace is 98% white and also has children. I didn't mind telling the adults who believed I'd cut my hair that I was "pretending" because I knew the first thing they'd want to holler is that I'd been wearing a weave all this time, especially since Oprah's show with Chris Rock aired and he's going to have the world thinking that all long-haired black women are wearing weaves. Here were a couple of comments that I enjoyed that day:

kindergarten child: Your hair looks better that way.

first grader: You look cute today.

black bus driver: I know good and d*** well you didn't cut your hair!

Here's me in Elise.

This is Mina. She's really pretty. She's my fave. Out of the three, she also looks the most real. It looks longer on the model to me, but it's cool. The quality is great too.

Here's me in Mina.

So after all that, I am still in search of the "perfect" bob wig. I decided that maybe the best way to go about this is to just have a wig cut and styled into a bob for me. Ateyaa has a video where she does this and it comes out gorgeous. So today, I purchased a human hair wig online and I plan to have it cut and styled. But part of me is saying "you know you've been admiring some long layered cuts too, but haven't wanted to cut your hair so..."

Maybe in time, I'll be able to have both, but those human hair wig prices make you go slow on purchasing another one!

 

[sqzbly1908]

They are both cute on you but I am really feeling that "Mina" - it really flatters your pretty cheekbones!!!

Maybe I missed it but where did you purchase the wigs?

 

[Supergirl]

^Thanks!

Mina came from hairsisters.com
I don't really recommend them though. I'd recommend blackhairspray.com, which is where I got Elise or beautyshoppers.com or gmbshair.com, which is where I got the very first wig (the one that I don't have a pic of me in).

 

[leona2025]

SG how do you put the wig on? Can you just slide it on and it stay in place?

 

[Supergirl]

^^most of them have combs, but I try not to use them

Most have adjustable caps, so if you adjust it well for your head-size, it will stay pretty secure. You can also use bobby pins.

There used to be a huge wig shop in wynnwood (sp?) village that had tons of super cute wigs. I don't know the name of it though. There is also Jenny's in Fort Worth.

 

[SilentRuby]

Do you braid your hair or wrap it, supergirl?

I went to a wig shop in Wynnewood after our meetup! There were tons of wigs, but I didn't stay long, too overwhelming!

I cross-wrap.
