   Topic: Wig/nape straps??
Posted: 06 Nov 2009 at 2:29am |
I always have difficulties with keep my nape down after a few days, so i was thinking of getting a thin skin in the back. But before i venture to that, i'm wondering about the adjustable straps that some have in thier wigs. I've never had them. Do they work? did you like them? And feedback is appreciated.
Thanks.

Never buy anything from www.dreamlacewig.com. Jim Yao is a liar and a cheater! Dreamlacewig is a nightmare! He messed up my order and refused to exchange it or reimburse me. I want to kick his azz.

I love them! I always get my wigs with the strap in the back. I never wear my hair up so it is very convenient for me. I also work out a lot and the adhesives never seem to last through my work outs so I switched to the lace front with the straps in the back a couple of years ago. It is perfect because it gives me a snug fit even when I don't want to tape the front down. I think you should try it, you may like it. It's not for if you wear your hair up in a high ponytail but I do sometimes wear a low ponytail and it looks great. I just ordered one from mike&mary and it should be here sometime next week. Good luck if you do try it.

I love straps in the back. I do bobby pin apps and the strap in the back makes it so much easier and faster to do.

I do not glue down the back anymore. It never works for me. I just leave it as is or use bobby pins.

I order all my units with straps in the back. Works great for me. I just apply (glue/ tape combo)the front and the straps in the back give me a snug fit..

Straps are a head ache and a half.the straps ride up your head in the back and they never stay strap.I would say get a thin skin unit,every one says it works best.The unit I had that had straps in the back,I cut them out.Trust me you would not like it.

this is a custom unit I had done which gives me the option of nape straps & lace at the same time. I loved this unit but unfortunately my dog thought it was her favorite toy.......needless to say it DIED.........my unit.......not my dog

I have ordered my first unit with straps in the back, unfortuantely, although I love it, it keeps riding up. In other words it won't stay in place without me constantly pulling it down. The material is a bit stretchy. Could it be that my measurement was a bit too small that is why I am experiencing this problem? Any feedback or help will be much appreciated.
