\/ my siggy is Tammy by Outre...do any Tammy wearers thin her out, or cut her int he back? I love the front layers, b/c they're about how long my hair is when it's straight..but the back seems wayy to long for me...

i'm a die hard Tammy girl and plan to rock her as my signature look for 2010
. i considered thinning her out at first but if i wet her a bit, spray on some oil free sheen spray and put on a scarf, she flattens down nicely so there's no need.as some have mentioned her nape gets tangled so im going to go out and buy some fabric softener to soak her in tomorrow to take care of that.

She very well could be my signature as well...if I could get over the length..I'll try the scarf thing and see how she looks. Thanks

Here's a pic of me and my Tammy lol
She looks like a thicker braidout version of my real hair. Call it vanity but I only like HWs that mimick what I already got going on underneath.
With all this cold weather I haven't tried blending her yet because moisture is my 1st priority. When the weather gets warmer I'll start braiding up the front of my hair so I can blend her without the headband.

Oh wow, she really looks good on you. I feel you on wearing HWs w/ texture similar to your own. That's the path I'm trying to take. I don't straighten my hair at all in the summer, but I do a few times in the winter...that will be the only time I'd wear a straight HW, I think..unless I do the headband thing

Sis. My hair is anything but straight. Simply roll, wet, whatever the part you want to show and I'll bet you can blend 'til your heart's content.

NAPE OF WIG(s)
Whoa, whoa, whoa was JUST going to post an ask about that. Just took off my 2nd hw, just now, and the nape is 'bout to be a hot mess. Now, though I didn't pay much ($24, I think) I ain't trying to have this be a disposable wig. Shoot, I want it to last. Soo,
What's the 4-1-1 on soaking, dealing with the nappy nape situation, ladies?
Thanks in advance.

I tried another half-wig called "Oprah" but it's from a company I never heard of called R&B Collection(?). I really like it a lot. You can click here for photos. Another great choice for my fellow transitioners.
OT: *Can someone please PM me how to add pics without them coming out teh size of a monitor?

Smiley, I love those last pics that you posted it looks SO natural.
I have a few picks of "Kendis", I got her a couple of weeks ago. I took more pics than this, but my camera is on crack and these are the only one's that transferred.... but anyway here she is.
I am supposed to be getting 4 more in the mail by Wednesday so when I get them I will take pics.

Thank You !!...
I saw one similar to the one you want at the bss and it is really cute. I think I'm too "plain Jane" to pull one like that off though lol

I just put on Outre's Ciara for the first time. I LOVE her. Cute style and has enough length but not where it's rubbing on my back getting poofy.
I received 2 pieces in this order one was a $70 wig and this one was a $20 will. (sale 39 and 16). so far I like this one better. I'll have to review both again after 2 weeks of wear.

SelfStyled, thank you for the tip!
I ordered my first half wig today on sale for $14.97!!!!!!! I guess I'm gifting it to myself for Xmas.
https://www.hairsisters.com/ver2/Vi...ortName=product_sort&sortValue=desc&type=cate
HZ 7010 in color 1B. I'll be back with a follow-up on how I like it.
It came yesterday. I cut some of the length and volume, so it could look beleiveable, and dulled it out with baking powder (could not find the cornstarch in the pantry).
I am extrememly self-conscious because it is too silky for my hair type, even after I flat-ironed the first 2 inches of my hairline, for blending. I am wearing a linen headband, and so that covers my hair, but me no likey right now.
I would need freshly relaxed hair to pull this one off confidently. If I am gonna do this half-wig regimen all year, I need the more textured wigs like MizzBrit.

DO you wear Tammy often? She looks really good on you. I haven't worn her since New Year's. Maybe I need to put her on more to get used to the look..cuz I love her, but feel TOO diva in her...
*I like how we refer to wigs as 'she' and 'her'
