Wigging it out!

They also give me the opportunity to sport different looks at the drop of a hat. I find that it saves time as I'm done with my hair in less than 5 minutes and its painless too. I also find it super easy to take care of my hair underneath, I just take off the wig and feel my hair if its dry I spritz and seal and that's all.  I prepare my hair for my wigs by cowashing or shampooing (depending on what my hair needs) followed by the LOC method after which  I cornrow my hair. I usually redo my cornrows every Friday or Saturday. Super easy life!! I'll like to share a few of my wigs with you: My first

I didnt have the strength to make a detangling cocktail so I decided to improvise. I went under the shower and turned the hot water on and just let it beat down on me,thoroughly saturating my hair. I was there for a long time and when I was tired I used my VO5 conditioner and did some finger detangling. It was so easy! I couldn't believe my eyes. I lost very little hair. When I was done finger detangling I used a wide tooth comb and my hair was a s
