Model Model Invisible Part 3/4 wig

An invisible part in a weave,  when done poorly,  is the ugliest thing you'd ever see. I have watched over 20 invisible part * tutorials on You Tube  in the last few weeks. Of them all only two wearers got the look right. That's why I was so thrilled to see Model Model's Invisible Part 3/4 Synthetic Wig.
The wig looks like any other on the market but it differs at the top with a deep invisible parting that allows us to wear some of their hair out, much like a half wig.
These wigs come with adjustable straps , two clips at the back and two clips at the parting.

The parting width is flexible and wig can be worn with or without a bang. If you're going to try the Invisible Part Wig, you have to really ensure that it matches the colour and texture of your hair, or else it would be obvious to those around you are wearing a hair piece.  I love that the wig, like a weave, allows us to blend our hair in without a sew in or stick in . I also love that it is simple to do and  quick. Talk about time saving hair!  I'd definitely try it.
Leave me a comment or two if you have already tried the wig or you are about to. Here's a video about the wig for your viewing pleasure. : )
 *The invisible part is achieved by sticking one inch pieces of weave, one behind the other, along one's natural hair part.

Braided Lace Front Wigs take hassle out of plaiting Herringbone braid

The popularity of French and Herringbone braids has reached to  lace front wigs!  Brands like Model Model, Beshe Futura, and Freetress have all put out synthetic braided  lace front wigs in straight and wavy hair types.

The Herringbone or Fishtail braid is a variation of the French braid. Unlike the French braid, the Herringbone is parted into two rather than three. It looks best swept to one side, in the middle of the head and casually in loose tussled hair.

I have tried the French braid and Herringbone in my own real hair but could never get the thickness offered in these wigs. The front of the wig features tendrils and baby hair for a realistic look.

When you get tired of wearing your lace front in a braid, you could wear it loose - just as you would your own hair.

The wigs fetch from $30 US and up, depending on the brand of hair you're buying. As I always advise you, ensure that the colour hair you choose matches your skin tone for a more believable look

Brazilian Remy Clip ins - a review

Another post in six days...you guys are getting quite lucky. But seriously I had to do a post today to share a about my experience with the Beautiful Brazilian Remy Hair clip ins that I got to review yesterday If you're thinking of investing in a pack, you should find this review useful. Your feedback, questions , of course, are always welcomed.

Length - 18 inches, I was offered the 22 inches but I wasn't yet ready for that length
Colour - A number 2 that looks like number 4. It happens sometimes depending on the brand of hair that you're buying. That's why it is important for you to match the hair with yours rather than just buying based on the colour you're accustomed to.
Texture - bone straight.
Clip in pieces - 7
Pros - Hair feels awesome. I washed it before I put it on and got no tangles.  
          Clips are comfortable and easy on the scalp,

         Blended in perfectly with my natural hair colour.
Cons - Too little body in hair wefts
           Wefts too short

 When I first saw the hair in the pack I immediately knew that it wasn't enough to give me a full-body look - even though the wefts were doubled. When I started clipping the pieces in, my fears were confirmed.
Another thing I noticed was that were not enough long wefts pieces in the pack - only one piece had four clips, two had two clips, another two had two clips and there were  two once inch pieces- certainly doesn't make for a full head of hair. Still I have my ways to work things out. My own hair is neck length at the back and shorter at the front so I was also looking for body, and not just length, with this hair.
On my first attempt to install the clip ins , the back of my head had the body while the front had none. On my second attempt it was in reverse.
Finally I parted my hair horizontally just above my ears and I started my first row. Usually when I wear clip in pieces I start them at just above my neck.   I worked my way up to the top of my head until I was finally comfortable with the look in the mirror. The end result was pretty good , given the small amount of hair, at least from the front view. The back, however,was scant.
If you're going to invest in this hair I think two packs would give you a better look then one  If you can't afford two packs right away, cut the clip ins pieces to a length that is a little longer than your own hair. This would give you the thick look that you desire.  Here are some photos of me wearing the hair. I'd like to hear what you think.
