Lunch , punch and Hairdo extensions

The diners at TGIF must have been wondering about my mental state as I sat at the corner table of the restaurant trying on hair.
Between bites of my piping hot buffalo wings and sips of my fruit punch I spent 2 hours talking to the owners of Vanc marketing Charlene and Navin about the packs of hair laid out on the table before us.
The packages were cute see through palstic cases that buttoned shut. Contained in them were extensions that were long, straight,short, curly and at least one was a ponytail.
Honestly I spent the time feeling, ooohing and ahhing at the beauty of these extensions.
In all my years I have NEVER encountered synthetic hair that was heat resistant.
The synthetic hair most are accustomed to crinkle up and lose its shine and texture at the slightest exposure to heat agents like curling and flat irons.
You know those Kankelon braid fibers? That's exactly what those glossy synthetic pieces transform to when exposed to heat.
The synethic hair pieces they sell in T&T are made out of plastic-like fiber, hence the no heat warning.
The Hairdo braid, however, is made up of its own brand of fibers called True2Life.
To the touch, the hair is soft yet not doll-like and thank goodness it doesn't pack the shine as most synthetic hair tend to do.
The hairpieces are also clip-ons which means no needles, no thread, no cornrows, no glue.
The clips were so small I didn't see them at first. They are made of a metal and clamp shut to keep them in place on the head.
The Raquel Welch line features memory caps on its wig line so that you never have to fuss about scoring the same look with each wear of the wig.
As a wig wearer I know that there are days when you can get the perfect wig fit (the part in the right place, the sideburns properly lined up to flatter your face) and the days when you have to spin that wig all over your head just to get the same look you got the last time you put the wig on.
The memory cap wigs are sold with head forms to ensure that the shape is kept. For we all know, well most of us anyway, that a wig can stretch a size up if it isn't placed on a proper form between wear.
How many of you have had to knot your wig band to prevent it from stretching? (My two hands are up). For my non wig wearers, the wig band is much like your bra strap with the same features. And you know how often you have to adjust a bra strap!
At TGIF I also tried on a clip-on bang, which I actually walked out of the restaurant wearing, as a parting gift from Vanc.
They also gifted me with a ponytail which is secured with velcro.
I like that the bangs are full and healthy looking and I didn't have to cut my hair to achieve it.
The Hairdo line is the brainchild of Ken Paves, only one of the most noted celebrity hair stylists.
Among Hairdo's wearers are Eva Longoria, Beyonce and Jessica Simpson (who inspired the line).
I couldn't take my eyes of a short curly honey and brown clip-in wig.
I think this little baby should be my Mother's Day gift. I'm working on gifting myself with it but I must shift around things in my budget to achieve such. Wish me lots of luck.
