Protective Style Files! Getting My Wig Game Up!

Gala wig by Freetress

I just realized that I haven't bought a wig in 2 years. I'm so behind on what's hot now. So I decided to give my hair a rest by putting it in 8 block braids that I will co-rinse (rinse with conditioner) 4x a week, and redo on Sundays (Note: I'm still using my sulfur oil too). This will allow me creative freedom, and to up my wig game.

Now, I'm picky as hell when it comes to wigs so I had to do my research before I dove head first into it. After a few days of researching websites, YouTube videos, and head shapes (no, I'm not joking.) I've narrowed it down to my top must have wigs.

The first one I placed an order for, is probably one of the biggest chances I'm taking. Why? Well. because I'm learning I look best with a bang, and although this has a bang, it's more of a Beyonce/Kim Kardashian hybrid swoop. Never done this before. I've only seen it on weaves. I'm going to take a chance though.

So The first wig I ordered was the Freetress Equal Futura Gala wig in 1B (add a 1 as backup if it's sold out/not in stock). The wig is $18.99 + $5.00 shipping at divatress.com and should arrive early next week.

Now I would not have bought this wig if it wasn't for the YouTubers GlamorouslifeofB and Xebonyeyezx because most of the people I saw with this wig on had it all sideways and stuff. Or didn't even bother to brush it. They sold it to me well though.

The next wig that I absolutely, positively, without a doubt, must get my hands on is the Junee Manhattan Style Jina wig which retails for around $28.99. I'm not going to lie, I  was in between this wig and the Miss California wig which is similar, but thicker, much longer, with a longer bang (retails for around $21.00).

Miss California

 I just feel like I would only end up cutting Miss California to get it to look like Jina. I will say that Miss California looks a little more real than Jina but I think the bottom line is how you like your bang (and length because Miss Califorina looks to be between 16-22 inches long).

The next wig I'm looking to by, particularly for the winter, is the Freetress Equal Wig Ebony. I am a little worried about buying this wig which is the only reason why I did not purchase it first and went with Gala. See, this wig has no clips, which normally is not a problem for me, however I hear people complain about the wig being a little too small. Still, I love the fact that it has a bang, is very, very soft, and retails for around $19.95. I can really see myself rocking Ebony like my winter hat when I co-rinse in colder months.

A quick note about my half wig game. I'm still in it to win it, just taking a small break. But when the break is over. These are the wigs I'm buying:

Tammy Half Wig $16.99

Runway Girl Half Wig $17.99

 Still on my hunt for the holy grail of curly wigs.
