2015 WIG CHALLENGE

I'm late to the party but I am loving my wigs now that I cut them in the part and wear them like a removable weave. I love that I can just snatch them off at the end of the day. I'm mad it too me so long to figure that out. I think I will wear them all year in 2016

Sorry I didn't clarify. I have a bunch of l part wigs that I bought thinking I could tweeze the part and put a little concealer like the girls on YouTube but they looked so unnatural. I forgot they say you can cut them too and since I had to cut out my weave early I had no other choice. I'm glad I did because they were just sitting in my closet.
 
I wash weekly (alternate btwn diluted shampoo and diluted conditioner vs. Cowash and condition).

I've read the direction of "moisturize your cornrows when they feel dry, at least 2-3xs a week"..

Well mine always feel dry so I:

Moisturize nightly with diluted moisturizer and then I lightly mist braid spray on them in the morning before my wig cap.

@Napp, so you're doing this with the synthetic l part wigs? Like outre, sensationnel?
 
New wig that I made over the weekend. This is the first time I made a full wig without using a closure; I was so nervous trying to figure out how to close it up at the top. :pray: Thank you Youtube, lol. I used 3 bundles of kinky curly hair from Yvonne Hair (on Aliexpress).
I have really enjoyed this wig challenge; it's given me the chance to access my hair daily while still rocking a protective style that I have full control of on my head. No more tight braids or installs. I hope we can continue this next year.

Wow you look great! I bought that hair a few months ago. It was really good but my inexperiences with weave showed when I tried to install and style it. Right now it is in a bag because I can't wear it but one day I will bring it back to life somehow. Did you use the flip over method? If so how is it holding up?

Thank you so much. No i didnt do the flip over method...i tried the checker board method by Roxxy Luv after i saw Sofreshdyamond's video on YT. When i have a chance i'll post some links.

As far as how the hair is holdong up, this is my third time with kinky curly and i it is a high maintenance hair in the sense of staying on top of your detangling. Ill see how this vendors hair holds up though.

Loving this!
 
Do you do something like this?



I love the wig you posted and might pick it up if I can make it look more natural. TIA!

Yes I did! I just didn't add extra clips. I will be modifying it a little by coloring the lace with a sharpie to make it less noticable
