You Want Me to Wear a Wig?!!

What does everyone have against wigs? Well, nothing anymore. Turns out, a lot of women, including a lot of my friends, wear wigs all the time. You just can't tell. But today's wigs are nothing like those weird, plastic-looking ones that might come to mind. These days, its all about the half wig.

Half wigs are great because they allow you to blend your own natural hair with it, which makes the look a lot more natural. And best of all, it lets you experiment with a bunch of different styles, without the long-term commitment of a relaxer, color, weave, or haircut.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm fascinated by the whole thing, and I can't wait to try one. Here are two videos I found that better illustrate the "transformation". In the first video, missdiamond3456 (check her out on YouTube) is using the Rihanna half wig by Outre, $21.99.



In the second video, muffinismylovers (also on YouTube) of Many Faces of Beauty is using the Modu Anytime TrueMatch half wig, $27.99.




WHERE'S THE BOOTY:

Some great brands are Sensationnel, Outre, FreeTress, Modu, and Motown Tress.

There are a bunch of websites that sell these half wigs, and others, like ProBeauty Supply, ClairHair, and HairSisters. But for those of you who are impatient like me, try your local hair supply store.
