Half wig review...love it!

All right so it is product review time.  This week I ordered a half wig from Samsbeauty.com I ordered the Sensationnel style HZ 7038 in a color 1b.  With shipping and everything, my total came to 25.39.   I am an impatient person so shipping time was pretty good compared to some other sites I won’t mention.  I ordered on a Friday and received the package that following Wednesday.  They sent me emails the whole step of the way and I wasn’t wondering when my package would be shipped.


The wig has a normal cap construction inside, it has two combs, one in the front and one in the back, plus the "bra straps".  When I first tried to prep the front of my hair for the wig, I braided my hair into small individual braids.  I hoped when I took the braids down that my own hair would blend in with the wig but unfortunately, it did not.  So I then preceded to put my hair in perm rods but I got impatient and took them out too soon but I am pretty sure that method may have blended nicely.  Since we were headed out of town to GA the same day, I had to think of a fast solution.  I took some kenkalon hair out from my hair stash and braided in the hair into my hair, making one big braid across my hairline.  After that, I put the wig right behind the braid and wala….instant or in my case, not so instant hair.   I am a horrible braider so my braid looks okay.  If you are a good braider, you can make this a very beautiful style.

 To make this a true review, I will come back in a couple of weeks and let you guys know the lifespan of this hair and how it held up. So far I absolutely love the look of this hair.  If you are a frequent half wig wearer, that has natural hair, let me know how you deal with blending issues. 
If you would like to purchase this style, you should first check your local BSS, because it may cost less there.
I have never ordered from this website, but this is the cheapest I can find online:

OMG I CANT BELIEVE SHE WORE THAT!




Okay so I was talking to a friend about how I didn’t feel like the task of getting ready and picking out clothes to go to an upcoming event. Long story short, we got into a long drawn out conversation about how I HAVE to go dress this way because everyone in attendance will be up on their fashion game. I am no fashionista, while I like shopping and picking out clothes, I don’t always care about latest fashion as much as some around me do.  I don’t know what is in season, nor do I care to be honest.  I am the type of person where if a girl is rocking an outfit that doesn’t match, I could care less.  Why can’t she wear a pink shirt, purple jeans, and blue shoes?  Who are these quote unquote fashion police and why do they have the authority to criticize the way someone dresses?

I at one point was guilty of criticizing outfits people picked out when going out to a club or bar, but one day I had an epiphany and I thought who the hell cares?  There is nothing wrong with keeping up with the latest fashion and trying to look good, but if it’s not that important to you, like in my case, don’t stress yourself. Do you and when someone comes up to you and says “Those shoes were so last season” you tell them that individuality is in this season.  Do you think we judge each others appearances too much?? Tell me what you think.
