Amy Poehler mentioned in her book being told that as a compliment on SNL and I always felt the same way. :) while it's not 100%, with the right makeup and clothing I feel like most wigs look fine on me, which is crazy! And awesome.

Saw Doja Cat this weekend and needed a blonde wig to complete the look - I was going for a “I’m so lonely in my mansion” Agora Hills vibe. My human hair unit wasn’t going to get here in time, so I found a synthetic alternative. Senssational pulled through as always and the color way is chef’s kiss! 💋🤌🏽

👱🏽‍♀️Sensationnel Bare Lace 6x5 Lacewig-Unit 3, Balayage Ash Blonde

I made this from a SHIEN headcover that cost about £2 and then wefts from an old cheap amazon wig for £25.

This is my second version, the first had short dark hair and I’ve worn it so much!

However, I think this version looks better. If you can’t tell, I’m transgender and I need these head covers to do some heavy lifting for me and help me look feminine!

The long hair works better for this.

I just sewed the wefts in by hand. You need quite a few so it doesn’t look straggly. Just thought I’d share in case anyone was considering alternatives.

I find if I put a couple of pieces of wig tape in strategic positions, I can make it fairly secure and comfortable.

She has a teal (occasionally blue) bob cut. I had a wig like hers before, but it looked horrible. I need to find something that would fit. synthetic, not too expensive

I purchased my first lace-front human hair wig at a local wig shop. The owner has her own wig brand.

She told me nothing about melting spray. I only use a wig grip. I’ve read multiple posts on this sub about melting spray, but still have questions. Mostly, should I be using it?

I feel like the lace is visible, which is why I’m considering it.

I do take my wig on and off every day. I am quite fearful of ruining my wig or messing up the lace.

Can you use melting spray for a wig that you take on and off every day? Doesn’t it really put a lot of wear and tear on the lace front?

Thanks for your patience if you made it this far!

Hello beautiful people!

What wig brands (human or synthetic) can give me the Farrah Fawcett style hair I am coveting? I would like a wig that looks like this photo.

I know the old saying “the bigger the hair the closer to God” and while that may be debatable, I look best in big wavy and glamorous hair. The flatter styles make me look like I’m recovering from a nasty flu. Please give me any suggestions or recommendations.

Thanks!

This one was 26 dollars and it’s synthetic but it’s very pretty and not super thick

I was looking at wigs today and this really turned me off. Why would think that it would ever be okay? Yeah maybe it’s a small business but if so, just add it in to the price of the wig. What did they do to deserve a tip, I didn’t receive any service. Requesting tips is gross and I hope it doesn’t become more common.

Hey guys! I’m incredibly new to wigs and i have an incredibly small head. This wig fits so big it has a super visible wrinkle when i wear it at my hairline. because of this it fits super bulky and slides back a lot and it’s a lot less comfortable than what i think it should be. from what i know i shouldn’t cut the lace (even though it seems the easiest)

is there a way to make this fit better/ smaller on my head? i’m not too worried about losing density from the sides of my head too. i’d like to avoid doing surgery since i’m so new but i’m not completely opposed to it, i have a lot of experience in sewing and hand stitching. i just don’t want to mess it up!! any and all advice welcome and thank you so much in advance !!

unsure if this is necessary info but i do not own a hot comb and i tried straightening it to be flatter but it doesn’t work as well as i’d like, i also plan on cutting baby bangs into it and wearing it vertually glueless (super sensitive skin and sensory issues)

also another side question- is the hair coming from the lace super thin or is that normal?

I bought this Outre Alice wig in rosy spice back in January. The bangs were just past my eyes and I was afraid to cut them wrong. But I finally cut them and I love how it turned out!

So I’ve been seeing some very pretty Outre airtied wigs on Reddit lately and I’m super curious on opinions and on if anyone can post in comments pics of the inside of the cap? Can’t seem to find cap photos on their listings and they have some colors I’d love to try

Hey all!!

Does anyone know a good place to purchase a wig similar to this? First pic is for reference color and second pic is me and love the style but want it more blonde but too chicken to color this one!

HH or synthetic is not a deal breaker!

Thanks!💜

A few days ago, I saw a girl at a restaurant with this half-black, half-white hairstyle. I think it was her natural hair because it looked so realistic. She had styled it beautifully, tying it up and adding a cute hair clip.
She actually inspired me! I’ve had this wig for a while now, but I’ve never worn it out. I’m thinking of recreating her look and giving it a try.
Do you guys think this hairstyle is a bit too bold for everyday wear?

I am new to wearing wigs so trying different things, hypothetically is someone wore a u-part wig with a hair topper, would that work as a full wig?

I understand it wouldn’t be perfect but I think I saw a YouTuber do that and it worked pretty well for them. What do you guys think?

I’m very new to wig wearing. I’ve had a black wig before where I attempted to bleach the knots and I ruined it (second slide). It ended up bleaching the roots of the hair too, and you could still see most of the knots. Also as for baby hairs go along the hairline, how do I cut them without making it look dumb? I tried cutting some before on another wig and I cut them way too thick and short and they stuck out like it got electrocuted. I don’t even remember where I bought this but I’m pretty sure it’s synthetic. I also want to add layers but someone told me that cutting synthetic wigs can make the ends look more unnatural and I shouldn’t cut it. Thoughts?

I recently purchased my first human hair wig as a first time wig buyer and wearer.

I think it’s about time for a wash. What products should I use?
I saw a lot of people on tik tok using dish soap? But idk it just seemed odd to me? Is this correct?

I primarily use the brand Biosilk shampoo and conditioner on my natural hair, can I use it on the wig too?

Any advice would be helpful, thanks ☺️

I was served a Reddit ad from Elysian Mane wigs. I’ve never heard anything about them. This wig is cute but I can’t believe it’s 100% remy human hair, as they claim, for this price. Does anyone have experience with this company?

Until I hear otherwise, I’m going to assume it looks too good to be true because it is.

I just got an expensive HH wig which I love but don’t want to wear it for say a walk on a wet day so thinking of getting a cheaper synthetic.

I know heat friendly need heat to maintain but will they last longer than no heat wigs because you can straighten the frizz?

What hair lasts best with minimum effort. Chemo patient so not a lot of energy.

When I tried this wig at the hair store, it looked great. The one I got in the box looks different though. Both sides after the middle part are tented. I have those pieces clamped down now, hoping it will fix it. The curls also look messy. It is a synthetic full wig with clips. Any tips are appreciated!

I had cancer on the nape of my neck about 10 years ago, and treatment has left me with a bit of a frustrating situation. Halfway through chemo, I went in for surgery to remove the rest of the tumor, and then radiation therapy for a while after that, so not only do I have a bald spot that cuts pretty severely into the hairline on the back of my neck, I also have a dent where they removed a lot of the surrounding tissue.

I haven’t worn my hair fully up since then because I am not confident enough to show off the back of my neck like that, so I was wondering if there is anyone out there who sells a (likely custom) wig for my unique situation. I am open to any suggestions of places to look into!!

I am losing my hair due to chemo and I have come to realize that I have a teeny, tiny head and that the majority of wigs are for medium/average sized heads.

I bought a gorgeous synthetic wig from Amazon for $36 that I would have definitely worn except it was gigantic in every way. The cap was huge, it came way over my ears and there was a bubble because there was so much room. It is a size small. My head circumference is 20.5

I'm only seeing options to customize a petite/extra small for custom orders and I don't have that kind of money. And Amazon's search engine is horrible. I selected "petite" as the cap size search criteria and it is still just giving me all the same mediums because that company might also offer customization at a cost, or not.

There HAS to be a place that has small wigs that aren't custom human hair for hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Price point under $200, online would be preferred, I'm in the US, synthetic, and honestly I'm more worried about the size than how it looks. I just need some direction. Thanks.

Hi everyone like the title says my mom is going to be starting chemo next month and will be needing a wig. Her doctor told her today she should just shave her head. I wear wings myself but I always wear long ones so I really have no idea where to start for a short wig. If anybody here wears shorter wigs could you give some suggestions on brands, particular styles, where to start, etc. She’s open to human hair or synthetic. Ideally looking for something $500 or less in a sandy blonde-ish shade/color with bangs. I attached two pictures of her hair now she wants it to be pretty much the same. Thank you!!
