Outre Narissa

Hello lovely ladies! Happy New Year to you all! I hope that you all had a blessed and safe holiday season! I finally took out my sew in after almost a month of having it in but you can find out more about that in my previous blog post. I mentioned that I would be doing protective styles until August and I've been sticking with that. I started this challenge at the very start of December and I've been really enjoying all of the styles that I've been able to do and get.

Now from the title some of you may have guessed that this has to do with some type of hair and if you're big on wigs then you know that Narissa is a beautiful half wig. Now this is my very first half wig or wig period and I must say it's nothing like I thought it would be. For some reason I thought it would be very uncomfortable and that it wouldn't look right on me but I was mistaken on both parts. I love this wig it's very cute, sexy, and fun. I've been wearing this wig for a couple of days trying to figure out how to rock it before I go back to class and I've finally got it.

Initially I lightly flat ironed my hair and used Beeswax and soft rollers but that didn't work because my hair didn't curl. So my next option was to use the hard rollers and maybe that would work, but that was a also a fail and so uncomfortable to sleep on . The last attempt, which should have been my first attempt, was using flexi rod sets (3/4") and that was perfect. So after a couple of tries I finally figured it out and I love it even more. Since I am transitioning and my new growth is a bit wild I use a headband over night to lay down my edges and that works perfectly for me.

I'm loving the curls in this wig and I hope to wear it for at least two weeks, hopefully longer if it holds up. When I was looking through some of the reviews I saw that some people said that after a couple of wears it was a mess and what not but mine is holding up just fine, so far at least. If you haven't figure it out already, I LOVE THIS WIG! I'm so anxious to try on other wigs. This is a great protective style for me and I hope that it helps me to retain my length.

This was one of my practice runs before I actually got the hang of it, hence the reason you can see my new growth and it isn't blended.

Getting a little better with it!

Finally got it. You can still see my new growth but it looks much better compared to the first picture.

Hope you all enjoyed =)
