random thoughts weave style

This thread inspires to do the instal myself...kudos

If you do a full bang with closure can you change up the styling at all??  I want a bang but not the one that Beyonce has been rocking.  I need to be able to change up my install-- 2 months is a long time with a bang.

I'm trying out wigs and using my extensions to make them!

I recently made one and also ordered from RPG show, will try and have pictures up soon.

My experience with making a wig:

From my personal experience, I was so tired of sewing my extensions in and out of my hair, and the clips kept coming off of the extension when I used clip-in.

The good wigs are also really expensive so I just made a U-part wig and it did not take very long and turned out really nice.

I used 100% virgin remy by hollywood

It was my first time using this hair but I got very nice quality without spending fortune. Everyone swears it's real. There was also 3 bundles inside instead of 1.

I also watch this really good Youtube video

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pDYJs3EkRc)

on making the Upart wig with a hot glue gun. It took me about an hour or more but the wig has held up nicely and is very convenient.

Will update with my experience on Rpgshow wig soon.

Has anyone else tried this? My main goal is to protect my hair from heat and have faster hair styling in the morning.

Weave takedown complete!!  I did the track takedown last night and the braid takedown this morning.  I was soooo sick of my install (9.5 weeks is too long for me) even though it still looked good.  I missed my natural curls.  Trying a twistout to see if my natural styling has improved.  Easy to hide the twistout under a hat in the winter.
