Model Model Yumi 3/4 Invisible Part Wig













This unit came from Blackhairspray.com I received this unit in a color #2. This unit is approx 12-14" of long straight layers, with a slight bump to the ends. 100% curling iron safe up to 400 degrees. This unit can be worn and styled 2 different ways giving the wearer the opportunity to pull as little, or as much hair out as desired. You have the option of wearing this unit with a side bang, or cut the small attached piece off and being able to add a deep part within the u shaped opened area.

So far I have only worn this piece one time, so it remains in great condition.

*Will Update*

Pros: Lightweight, soft, multiple styles can be achieved, can be curled and straightened, has drawstring for easy fit and alteration.

Cons: Has a synthetic shine, thin, sheds, very silky texture can be difficult to blend natural hair textures into, weft clips can snag hairs if not properly installed.

Freetress Fullcap Drawstring Creta Girl



I picked up this beauty at HairWigHarlem! She has a fluffy, afro type of feel to her. About 16" in length if fully stretched, however sits right against my collar bone. The color I have my unit is in 1b which is pretty standard to any synthetic 1b. It is versatile which can be styled as a ponytail if desired. The fibers are 100% synthetic so it can not be curled. It has the standard long comb in the front and smaller comb in the back.

So as of September 4, 2012 I am still wearing this unit! HOWEVER.....it no longer resembles Kelly Rowland's gorgeous style! It now resembles more of a Tracy Ella Ross, Erykah Badu, Teyana Taylor look. If you do not like big hair, or if you are afraid of big hair, do not consider this! This hair gets HUGE with manipulation! It also last for a long time simply because it seems to look more natural with wear and manipulation! No Lie, I've gotten LOTS of compliments! This hair is also very easy to blend!
This hair will last as long as you like! Its all up to you and your preference! If you like the neat, Kelly Rowland look, it may last you a week or 2 with little to no manipulation, Anything after that will have you wearing an Afro!

PROS: Pretty style, drawstring, natural looking, inexpensive, no synthetic shine, last for a decent amount of time, has lots of body and volume, easy to blend with natural hair, fits nice and snug.

CONS: Tangles a lot, sheds, hair will mat in the nape area, gets really big, frizzes up, drawstring can become tangled with the hair.

Rating: 9

Will I purchase again?
Yes, I already did! I cut out 2 of the tracks in different areas so it doesn't get as huge as it did. I am looking to achieve a more natural look as if I grew it out myself!

Vivica A. Fox Lace Front Wig MASHA












This unit was purchased from MiMiBeauty.com I received this unit in a color #2. This lace front wig is approx 16-19" of layered loose curls, with a swoop bang. This unit is a part of the Vivica Fox DEEEP Collection, which gives you about 2 1/2" of parting space, and hand stiched lace from ear to ear, that gives you a more natural appearance to the hairline.. This unit contains 100% futura fibers, that can easily be curled and flat ironed for endless styles.
So, Its been about a month of wear with this unit, on and off. We have a Love/Hate relationship! This wig has a gorgeous style, however, the curls became very frizzy and stringy very quickly! This is definitely one of those pieces that should only be worn for a special occasion! If you plan on wearing this unit as a everyday wig, I wouldn't recommend it! Not only is it very glamorous, but the curls will drop with manipulation and become very frizzy and stringy :-(

PROS: Pretty style, nice fit, bio cap so wig wont start smelling like sweat, stretch paneling for a secure fit, pretty length, decent amount of parting space (2.5")

CONS: Becomes tangle, mattes badly at nape, curls will drop, becomes very frizzy, starts to look stringy, lace hard and itchy, may be too much luster for everyone's liking.

Rating: 7

Will I purchase again: Yes, I love the style, however, I will only wear it for special occasions!

Chocolate Black Remi Virgin Yaky

This hair can be purchased from your local beauty supply store, or purchased online at hairhoneys.com This hair is in a color #1b, and is 14" in the black remy yaky straight texture. I constructed yet another U Part wig using almost all of 3 packs of hair. Ive only gotten a chance to wear this hair a few times, but the quality of it has got me excited to see how long I can go with religously wearing this hair!

This hair has not been pre-washed prior to me installing it, and is pretty much good to go! The cuticle are all attached and facing the same direction, which asures proper quality and rules out chemical maintainance which asures that this hair is truly virgin remy.
**UPDATE**
So far I have been wearing this hair the past 2 weeks now, like most hair, its not gonna last forever! I'll give this hair about 2 more weeks of wear before I retire her. Shes still looks nice and is aging beautifully! Shes more of a yaki texture, more so then silky now. Still no wash.

Pros: Lightweight, natural healthy look, minimal shedding upon cutting the wefts, light natural sheen, soft, tangle free, free flowing, no stiffness.

Cons: Found some colored strings throughout the hair, runs a little lighter in color (which was a advantage for me), hair becomes a bit dry looking with flat ironing.

Model Model 3/4 Invisible Part Wig/U-Part Wig Yunessa













Purchased this beauty from one of my favorite online wig shops DivaTress.com!
This unit is a 3/4 wig with a U shape area and/or closed 0 area so you can achieve a natural invisible part or closure if you want a bang. This wig is in the color 1b, around 16" long, natural loose curl/tight wave, has 3 clips and 1 long comb, 100% futura fibers so it can be curled or flat ironed at 400 degrees. Coupon Code: NewDiva10 for new shoppers!

So, of course Ive been been rocking this unit sense I got it and I must say......It doesn't last long AT ALL!!! Wore it for about 1 1/2 weeks straight up and it tangled and became very frizzy! I wouldn't say its a bad wig simply because it never became "ragedy" looking! I just prefer the define look over the natural fluffy look. This wig may last the average wig wearer no more than 2 weeks!

PROS: Gorgeous style, U-Part wig style, gorgeous natural curls, true to color, very soft, drawstring for secure fit, snug fit on head, lightweight, confortable, full, nice density, easy to blend.

CONS: Tangles, Frizzes a lot, mattes at nape, mattes to drawstring, my hair gets caught in back combs, sheds, wig starts to detach from cap.

Rating: 7.5

Will I purchase again? Yes simply because it resembles a weave instead of a wig!

MyLaceWigTrend.com DeepWave Indian Remy Human Hair Lace Front Wig

This unit was sent to me to review from MyLaceWigTrend.com! All opinions and suggestions are 100% honest! If you feel an misunderstanding, please contact me! If you are interested in this or any other unit from their website, please use my coupon code to save $20 "ALICIA" (without quotation marks) Expires June 30, 2012.
I was sent their lace front unit in the color #2, 22" long, deepwave, 100% Indian Remy Human Hair, 130% density, baby hairs around the perimeter, adjustable straps in the back, no combs, light brown swiss lace, natural hairline.

So, Ive been wearing this unit for a little over 3 weeks now! Still going strong! However tangling and shedding is a little over whelming...However, conditioning it made the hair not as tangly so definitely incorporate that into your wig care routine! This wig is still in wearable condition. Will update again once hair is no longer wearable.

PROS: Very soft, gorgeous deep waves, decent fit, soft lace, okay amount of parting space, pretty style, gorgeous #2, great value.
