All about wigs!!!

[mellowyellowgirl]

@mellowyellowgirl it arrived and I LOVE it!!!!
As soon as I can I will try it on and take a pic for you.
The RT has taken a lot out of me but I only have 3 sessions left yay.
Today was my 17th session.
Hope you are having a lovely day

Hang in there Missy and I hope it fixes things for you!!!

Haven’t worn this for a while so taking it out for a spin

@mellowyellowgirl Good morning!
I haven't cut the lace yet but tried it on and took a couple of quick pics this morning for you
First impressions not sure if I should cut bangs or not. I have to cut the lace and see if it lies flat and looks transparent and then I will decide. This is a little lighter in color than my bio hair. My bio hair is a level 2 and this is a level 3-4. Close enough




I re parted it to a left off center as I do not love a center part on me and that is why the bobby pin is there...I dont blow dry it I let it air dry just like my bio hair. I don't even own a blow dryer lol

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

I love it!!!!!! It looks so natural on you!!!! Definitely see how the lace fits before you cut bangs. I love love love this look on you!!!! It’s “shorter” but not short at all and looks super natural! I would only vote for bangs if your lace is popping out.

Melllow, you inspired me to go through all of my alternative hair and today I’m wearing one of my first human hair purchases. The color has gotten more blonde over time (started as ashy brunette) but I still like it and no bangs on this one because I think it’s acceptable without. The lace fits snugly and is transparent enough but if you zoom in on my forehead you can see it



Anyway a big thank you because I also found a new one I had forgotten about lol. Going to cut the lace on that one tomorrow

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Looking fabulous Missy!!! Seriously any of these colours look like they could be your bio hair colour. People go to the hairdresser and get all kinds of stuff done to their bio hair after all!

I’m on the lookout for this look or just a lighter shade in general. One is out for delivery today! Will take pics if it arrives!

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

@missy !!!!!!!!!! I think we might be vaguely twinning with the latest wig!!!!! Okies I know it’s a different colour, length and quality ( bahaha mine is plastic and $17 but I digress!) but it is giving similar shorter hair vibes!!!

This length is so comfy!!!! I had a lab the other week, hehe came in with flowing curls and they made me tie my hair up. So I’m definitely sporting a shorter one next time!

I tied it up like it was my real hair without batting an eyelid. My shameless personality is great for this wig thing.



This is the more adventurous one with me trying to move towards blonde

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

I haz a new wiggy!!!! It’s cuter than this photo! I’m buying a few short ones for summer!

It’s so strange but the 18yos at uni have really taken to my wigs. They keep complimenting me and get so excited about them. I promised them lion hair next week and they’re very excited but hubby reckons I oversold and people are going to be disappointed when it doesn’t look lion enough.

 

[missy]

Love

What’s lion hair?

Look what popped up in my feed
This day in 1990
Examining my sister at West Point USMA where I was working as clinical faculty
LOL That hair. Those clothes Gotta love the 80s and 90s

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

oh my goodness!!!! So fun that you should post that photo!!!!

I went to a lab session thinking I was totally cute and they said it was too much hair and made me tie it up! But the kids want to see it next week because I don’t have labs with them.

Lion:



Have you worn your short wig out!!!????

 

[missy]

Love this too
No I have not yet worn any of the newer pieces out
It's raining so hard here and has been for weeks
I am wearing my headband wigs and my hat wigs.
They are great work horses if you kwim

 

[missy]

Yay...just snagged an alternative hair piece from a seller I have been wanting to try for a long time but her pieces go fast.. and on sale too woohoo





I didn't think i'd get it as we are on the go and am using my phone but yassss now just hope it fits

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Ooh it’s loooong!!!!! I love a super long wig! Makes me feel like a doll!

You must try and take snaps when you receive it!!!!

I’m contemplating a lighter long one! I’m branching out from what looks like my bio hair. Don’t you just love how the possibilities are endless? Yesterday I googled: Can tanned asians pull off red hair?

Cuz I wanted to try and be a redhead

 

[missy]

@mellowyellowgirl i love my hat wigs. They’re so easy to wear
This is 27” long and from the same vendor i ordered from yesterday and the hair I ordered yesterday from her is supposed to arrive today. Yay

Omg those ears!!!!! Too cute!!!!!

Hmmm time to browse the long wigs!! It is winter here after all! You’ve inspired me!!!

 

[missy]

@mellowyellowgirl it arrived and I love it
I cut the lace a minute ago and put it on still in my nightgown as it is 650AM here
But promised you a photo
And since we are cycling the next few days I won't have time to try the wigs on and take pics so did it now
I have one more coming today hopefully if USPS doesn't screw up fingers crossed
This is one of the longest I have
Density 120 which is very natural
Any higher density looks like too much hair on me

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Love love love!!!!!! So natural on you!!!! You look absolutely fabulous in it!!!!

Makes me want to break out my long hair on Tuesday!

Yay to more wig pics from you on the horizon!!!

 

[missy]

Girl. you would look stunning in long hair because you look stunning in short hair!!!
Go for it!!!
I have vendors I can recommend if you want quality human hair at decent prices
I could share with you via IG messaging if you are on IG or even loupe troupe

Anyway looking forward to seeing your new alternative hair mellow!

 

[missy]

@mellowyellowgirl it arrived yesterday and I love it. I think I am a bangs girl when it comes right down to it.
This is much lighter than my bio hair but I like the color a lot
I love that we can easily change the color of our hair just like that

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Love love love it!!!! I went and bought a bunch of short wigs for a while but you’re making me long for a new long!!!

I just ordered an almost blonde one! It is waaaaaay lighter than any of your wigs and I’m a tanned Asian girl so let’s see how this pans out!

 

[missy]

Oooh can’t wait to see your beautiful new pieces
I do have a few blonde pieces but never wear them. Too bold for me lol

White blonde




Dark blonde




And I didn’t keep this one. It made me feel I was playing dress up. Way too much hair for my frame
And the color looked awful on me

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

The dark blonde!!!!!!! Do you wear it????? It looks sensational on you!!!

Speaking of bold…..I went a little red. It looks even redder in real life.

White blonde

I LOVE this one on you, @missy ! In this photo the color really suits your skin tone. Also love the style! You could totally wear this.

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

My latest cheapie wig! I just want curly hair!!! Have a few more on order! They are so much fun.

Hehe I went and looked at higher end SYNTHETIC wigs (not human hair, didn’t even go there), just synthetic and some were thousands of dollars!

But I did pick up some awesome wig wearing tips on YouTube!

I really am shameless. In the same vein that I wear ridiculous rings and colours that may not suit me, I don’t even care if my wig is wiggy as long as I feel like a doll in it. And I do with all these curls!!! I want all the curls!!!

life is unfair, i want your naturally straight hair
you and @missy manage to look so natural (well not the green but ...)

love the stack
im really just here looking into the other topics i dont usually look at as im thinking about @Karl_K 's sub forum poll

 

[Calliecake]

@mellowyellowgirl What did you think of the wig that was a reddish color on you? I went to a wig pop up show about a month ago. The brown that had a red tint to it ended up looking best with my skin color. It was strange, the minute I put it on the woman helping me and another customer immediately said look how much it makes your eyes pop. When you find the right color you know immediately .

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

i would be afraid if i had to trim it to get a fringe (bangs) i would just keep on going like with all my barbie dolls who all ended up with Annie Lennox hair doos

Hallo!!!! Finally I have time to post! Did you get anything????? How are you going on your wig journey?????

The reddish colour is probably not the best colour on me but when have I ever let that stop me

I feel bold and a bit naughty in it so I wear it when I’m in that kind of mood. Plus there are only so many variations of brown I can go through before I think “Dammit the red is interesting”

AliExpress loves this brown and my friends and family love this brown



This feels a bit spicier

Thanks. This looks lovely on you! I think you could pull off red...maybe a cool toned red but you know I realized I was wrong about what I think I look good with...used to think I could only pull off cool colors but I think warm is OK too. Maybe you would look good in both...only way to know for sure is try it!! And have fun with it because you are a natural with alternative hair

 

[missy]

I LOVE this one on you, @missy ! In this photo the color really suits your skin tone. Also love the style! You could totally wear this.

Aww thank you! I do have a few less bold cool blondes but I sold this one since I felt it was too young for me and too much of a change compared to my bio hair which can be hard to hide at the hairline

I bought this from my friend never wore it and a year plus later sold it back to her lol. I have made a number of new friends in the alternative hair community and they are wonderful







I feel this is the lightest I can go...and I feel most comfortable in brunette for now at least. Maybe in time (if I lose hair at my hairline which is not happening at all right now) I can try again.
