    THANK YOU for showing how to do heat/wave maintenance specifically on Unfiltered. Mine has been sitting in a box for at least a month while I've been looking for exactly this. My long hair fell out before the beach wave era so I never learned how to make them on real so starting to learn on a wig has been extra intimidating, especially on Unfiltered bc I love that wave pattern so much and didn't want to mess it up.

    I have alopecia with very thin baby fine hair. I bought a Milano wig cap grip and it slides off my head underneath my wig. What can I do to prevent this? I use It Stays to secure my wigs but would like to have the option of using both. Also, my lace front wig is very irritating to my forehead, is there something I can use to stop the irritation?

    • @vikkivon5222
      @vikkivon5222 Год назад

      I have the same amount of hair. I finally found that if I put my wig grip on and then brought the lace front of the wig as close as possible to the edge of the wig grip, without letting the grip show, the grip will lift the lace just enough to keep it from scratching my forehead. Also, I bought expensive wig grips and nothing stayed on. They just slid right off. I went to a cheap wig store and I mean the one that sells extensions in a six pack, bought a $3.00 beige velvet grip. It stays on perfectly. The secret to keeping it on for me is to stretch it firmly and make sure it is below those little bones that stick out at the base of your skull. Sorry this is so long but I struggled so long and finally figured this out. I hope it helps you.

    First, excellent video. I have returned so many wigs out of frustration of them not looking like the picture. Shame on these companies for highly styling their wigs and even cutting them for the pictures in their ad. That is very unfair to their customers. When you order online; it is very expensive to have to return wigs.
    You wondered what is in Windex; the ammonia is what cuts the grease and grim on our windows. It sounds like it does the same on wigs that have product build up. Great tip, by the way.

    Misty,
    I heard you say that Godiva changes the name of their wigs. Are you actually saying that they buy wigs from different manufacturers and then change the name of the wig and resell it as their own? I did hear someone else say something like that a while back and I didn't believe it.

    • @macsu2be

      Seems to me that all the wig designers do that. There are so many similar styles and colors. Like anything sold, it is a matter of personal preference which item you buy. I might want to buy a red turtleneck sweater of which there are thousands. The one I buy might be from Land End even though Eddie Baurer sells the same sweater made from the same material but at a different price or it has a different sleeve cuff I don’t like or the red is not the hue I prefer. I might also see a red turtleneck at a bargain store that hits all my desires but maybe is as soft or is too stretchy. What I will say about Godiva’s Secret Wigs is that their Cristi wig was the first wig I bought and I unboxed it, shook it out, put it on and within less than a minute it looked exactly the way it is modeled. I recently bought a similar style in a color Godiva does not carry and I have been messing with this wig for three days and I cannot get it to look even remotely decent. That Godiva wig looks perfect every time I put it on and I have been wearing it for three months and have washed it and it is every bit as beautiful.
