Haircut Number 3

Hello folks!

So I've finally bitten the bullet and got another haircut today, this time I went with something completely different than before... and actually got a shape put into it. As you can see from the picture of the back, he kept most of the length and just went super short on the bottom right to give a half shaved look. From the front, one side is shaved, with the other side longer to give a little play where the bangs are. All in all, a really funky, easy to style haircut which makes the growout process more manageable. I will take a curly hair photo soon when I style it that way.

Variety is the spice of life - Revlon Wigs

Hello all!

I bought a new wig this week, I found that the long hair wig (while pretty for going out on weekends) is not practical for day-to-day wear. I purchased a second wig (for about $350 CDN at Trade Secrets) to wear to work every day for days that I'm not feeling my growing-out look. I will warn you though, this wig is made by Revlon, and unlike the wig I purchased the first time (see post for details on where to buy) it's VERY itchy. I'm wondering if the materials used in the Trade Secrets wigs are not as great of quality as the one I purchased previously. Price was comparable, so if I buy another one I will be going back to the store in Cambridge (Wigs and Hair Studio) to get it.

Here's a pic:






As you can see, this wig has a totally different look and feel to it, it's asymmetrical with one side of the bob being longer than the other. I have received many complements on it, and no one has been able to tell that it's not natural hair. I've had people who KNOW that my hair is short ask me how my hair grew so fast!

So the review on Revlon wigs is.... doesn't tangle, looks natural, but cap is very itchy even with a wig cap underneath.
