This took longer then planed to post but I swear to God everything has been working against me, the grabby things in in the clip-on ponytails broke like two times. Anyway, this is the most MacGyver of the different hime wigs since I use a bunch of extensions from several different brands to make the no doubt biggest most outrageous one. The first thing you'll want to do is to put the clip-in extensions on top of the ponytails and brush them into eachother.
With that we are redy to start putting it together.
My thoughts:
I do like the result of this one, I think it's cute but it's really heavy because of all the hair that goes in to it so pin that wig like there is no tomorrow. It's also so ridicilously huge that I don't really know when you would wear it except maybe photoshoots, outrageous parties or cosplay but that's for the individual to deside.
Putting it on:
Once you got the wig on nice and tigh, do a sort of three way part. Save a big chunk of hair on the top of your head and do two tiny ponytails on the side, as high as you possibly can.
Put the big chunk out of the way with a bobby pin and get your big clip-on ponytails out. Fold the ponytail of the wig and clip-on the extensions.
Do this on both sides, put them as high up as you can with as little space between the two clip-ons as possible, if necessary secure it with more bobby pins.
Now tease/backcomb the middle section of hair on the wig untill it's about the same hight as the clips. Smooth it over by combing over it gently with a soft brush, without killing the volume, secure any stray hairs with a big cute bow or a flower! Brush the different hairs into eachother for a more natural blend.
Plus & minus:
+ Huge and so cute!
+ Pretty cheap
+ One of a kind
- Heavy and rather unpractical
- Tricky styling
Overall score: 3/5
Right for you if you're: Looking for something eyecathing and one of a kind for an extravagant occasion.
A half wig is fastened by two long, flexible combs that you secure into your own hair. You can either put it over a high ponytail for more volyme or just slip it into your hair as it is. If you have thin hair like me I recomend teasing your roots so the combs won't slide out, once it's on you won't even feel it. Since it's a half wig it doesn't cover your entire scalp so your skin can brethe wich prevents it from getting too hot and it doesn't itch.
My thoughts: The quality of this one is okay for the price, the hair is a bit on the shiny/silky side but since it's a half wig it's easier to blend with your real hair. I feel the wavy style is easier to care for as far as washing and brushing goes, making for a more durable wig. Half wigs, for me, have a slightly more secure feeling when doing activeties such as clubbing or anything else with alot of movement. The fit feels secure and I don't worry about it comming off, becauce if it does, atleast I'm not left standing in my wig cap.
Putting it on: Comb a piece of your hair forward before you put on the hairpiece and comb your real hair back over and into the fake hair, this will make it harder to see a clear line where the piece starts and make the look more natural. You can also help cover up the transition area with a cute hair accessory!
