So I am currently 8 months post relaxer with that said Ive been hiding my hair and for that reason I was looking into curly half wigs that way blending my hair would be easier for me and eliminate any need for head. Luckily I ran across the half wig called evony by outre on YT. It looked great on all the girls ive seen with it so you know I just HAD to get it.
So let me tell yall for whatever reason at first I just didnt like this wig at all. I couldnt mimic the style that the model had. I couldnt fluff it out just quite right (I think the layering of this wig wasnt falling just right for me and my liking). This wig hated me and I hated it in return. Had I had another option I would of tossed this wig and forget it! However being the broke college student that I am that wasnt an option! I had to work with this wig and work with it was exactly what I did.
I prepped my hair for my curly styles like I do. I placed this wig on at an angle and then I moved the hair more to the right to create a bang that looked well with my face and voila, all of a sudden I started to fall in love with this wig. Lol I knew my love was true when I did my happy dance. I strategically placed a couple bobby pins in my hair to hold the style in place and the rest is history.
The bad:
This wig started to look old and worn very fast. I typically dont fall asleep in my wigs but I did fall asleep in this one. But even then Im not a wild in my sleep. I dont move. I noticed that this wig doesnt hold its spiral curly very long. If you fluff it out too much it will begin to look more like a wave that an spiral. As with all curly hair the curls began to interlock with one another which is also annoying.
Verdit, this gets a 3 out of 5 stars because they layering may or may not be great for everyone. Cute wig thats very vesatile when it comes to styling.
Would I purchase again? Yes because now I know how to taylor it to fit me and my face however it wouldnt be my first option.
Here are some pics.

Protective styling
After my set back I needed a way to protect my hair with as little manipulation as possible. I opt'd for a curly half wig that way I could easily blend my transitioning hair with my wig. Let me tell yall. I am IN LOVE. I love this wig.
Name: La Lesly
Company: Vannessa
Color: 1B
Ive been wearing this wig for about 3 weeks now. It's finally starting to get a little matted but its still holding up well. Out of the box you're given an extremely perfect curly sue looking wig and its not cute and very wiggy. But after some serious finger combing and letting the wig hang it started to look very cute.
This wig blends easily with my hair and it holds up to everyday wear granted I take it off at night.
Heres a few pics of me wearing this wig as of two days ago.

How to moisturize your hair while in a sew in
Sew-in's are great protective styles. They are low manipulation and they hide your hair. Sew in's are great for length and thickness retention. Although sew-in's have a lot of benefits have you ever noticed how dry your hair seem's to be once you take it out? My hair used to always look and feel like a tumble weed until I began to moisturize my hair while in a sew-in. Almost instantly I began to notice a difference. I simply spray some braid moisturizer on my braids and scalp. Check out the video to see how I do this!
