Wig Review

Long black wig review

by Kelly Leem

Ever since I cut my hair to donate it (again), I’ve regretted doing it (again). As a result, I really miss how long hair used to look on me. So, I decided to purchase a good quality wig from ebay from a seller named cdmnwx (if you were wondering). I got it about 2 weeks later in the estimated date time and I was so excited to open it!

Packaging: *****

-It was in a hairnet to prevent the hairs from going all over the place, a free wig cap was provided, and the packaging was pretty secure.

Quality: ****

-The hair didn’t look too shiny and artificial. It actually looked pretty natural in outside and inside lighting. The hair was soft to the touch and when brushing it out, not a lot of hair was pulled out; which means the hairs are secure in the wig cap. It does become tangled, so you need to make sure that you brush it thoroughly. The wig itself doesn’t really shed (few hairs have fallen out) but since it isn’t real hair, it does become staticy when you brush it with a regular hair brush. You can wet it down a bit just to get rid of it, as well as using dryer sheets. Don’t forget to use a steel comb which you can also get on ebay for really really cheap (.89 cents).

It isn’t too thin, or too thick. It has enough hair to cover my entire head and it fits my head perfectly! You can adjust it to your head size if you’d like, but I didn’t have too. You have the option to choose your color, and I chose black because it seemed like a more natural color  (though it looks like a dark dark brown under indoor lighting)

Price: ****

-I don’t really like spending a lot of money. Since this was the first wig that’s ever worked out pretty well for me, the $36.69 is worth it. Just remember, in most cases, cheaper prices mean cheaper made wigs that don’t work well (I know from experience). Keep in mind, long haired wigs usually cost more than shorter wigs

Note: Since this is a long wig, it’s a little harder to handle because of all the hair, but you can tie the wig into different styles as you would with your real hair :)

Seasonal Hair Transition

Going Lighter to Darker

by Yura shin

As the weather is changing from warm to cold, people tend to change their hair color to match the season. People go lighter during the spring and summer, and go dark during the fall and winter.

Since few years ago, the ombre trend has been becoming more and more popular. The ombre effect is when the top of your hair (towards the scalp) is dark, and as your hair goes down, it gets lighter and lighter.

With the ombre hair, people have been turning their ombre lighter where the tips of their hair are almost blonde. However, during the colder season, people have been dying their hair in a darker ombre effect where the tips are now a medium brown color.

But not all people have the ombre hair style. Some people just have regular hair dye, but are still going darker for the fall time. For example, I had light golden brown hair, but for the fall time, I dyed it completely black. Now, since the dye washed out a little bit, the black dye isn’t too harsh and is now just dark brown.

Dark Ash Brown, Dark Mahogany Brown, Dark Auburn, and Dark Golden Brown are all dark beautiful colors for this season.
