Are there any african-american women who wear half a wig?

Published by admin under African American Wig

Does it work well for you? How do you wear it? What kind is it?

I’m not African-American, I’m mexican-american and my cousin wears those wigs. She wears both the full and the half. Both fit well but she has to be careful with the half.

Has anyone purchased wigs either from Paula Young (big sale now) or a brand named Forever Young or Sepia. Also?

Published by admin under African American Wig

Paula Young sells African American Wigs and pieces, I had no idea. They have a process I have never heard of and I wanted to know why a white woman couldn’t wear the straight one with bangs. I suppose I could phone them but I’d like a real opinion.

Yes, quite a few people have purchased wigs from Paula Young, and the others too.

You want a real opinion, hmmm - ok, it is my firm opinion that prime rib is best served rare and slow-cooked.

Published by admin under African American Wig

So many women of color look for ways to improve our hairstyles in terms of creating trendy looks instantly! I still get questions from folks who are searching for these so called "african american wigs", but what I believe they are talking about are lace wigs? As I know its the newest hairstyle trend and a life saver for most! Even myself I have to admit. When women are asking for African American Wigs, are they really looking for lace wigs?

I found this site that provide good information about the differences: http://customlacewig.net

Rudy Ray Moore: Rude (DVD)

Published by admin under African American Wig

Rudy Ray Moore: Rude (DVD)

MOVIE DVD - Blaxploitation godfather Rudy Ray Moore performs his raunchy standup routine before a live audience in this concert film. Those who are familiar with Moore’s records and appearances in low-budget action/comedy pictures (Dolemite, The Monkey Hustle) will know what to expect: crude, gleefully vulgar jokes about the African-American experience delivered with boisterous style and funky rhythm. Moore’s comedy is not for the faint-hearted, and his subjects include pimps and prostitutes, blatant racial stereotypes, babies having sex, dogs urinating on blind men, and Santa Claus committing suicide. He also performs several classic routines from his albums, including Dolemite and Close Encounters of the Sex Kind. Also appearing as an intermission are the comedy team Leroy and Skillet, performing a pair of skits that concern whiskey, ugly babies, and the judicial system. Those who can take it blue will bust a gut at Rude, so screw your wig on tight and put your weight on it, because Rudy Ray Moore is bound to make everything down and funky. - Rudy Ray Moore: Rude (DVD)

How can african american women grow long thick healthy hair?

Published by admin under African American Wig

I used to have long hair down the middle of my back that was too thick :-) My mother was taking care of my hair then because a was around 10 years old. She did perm my hair and it was still healthy. When I was 11 I bleached my hair to turn it reddish brown. My hair became very frizzy and Fragile. It did not help that I started wearing weaves, wigs, and tight braids. Over the years My hair became like paper thin. When I perm my own hair I always get sores and hair loss. Please help

Q. How can I have longer thick healthy hair??

A. Well, having longer hair really consists of two things. The first is maximizing/promoting growth and the second is retaining length. Here are the absolute basics to growing longer stronger hair.

To maximize or promote growth, I would suggest:

1) Eat a protein rich diet and lots of fruits and veggies to ensure you are growing strong healthy hair.

2) Keep your body healthy and hydrated by drinking at least 64 oz of water a day and exercising at least 3-5 times a week.

3) Massage the scalp at night with a drop or two of essential oils to help stimulate the hair follicles. Make sure to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night.

4) Take a Hair, Skin and Nails vitamin to help supplement your diet. These vitamins are available at your local drugstore or health food store.

To retain length, I would suggest:

1) Wash and deep condition at least once a week to remove the accumulation of sebum from the scalp and hair.

2) Reduce direct heat (such as blow drying, flat ironing and hot curling). Instead, dry the hair using a low to no heat styling method (such as air drying in buns, braids or twists, roller-setting or flexi-rodding) to help reduce stress to the hair.

3) Make sure to moisturize nightly with a water based moisturizer like ORS Olive oil to help keep the ends lubricated. Trim as needed.

4) Keep the hair and ends protected during the day with loose styles like buns, twists, french rolls and twists.

The basic idea is to make sure that your body is healthy so that you are growing strong hair. After that, its just a matter of keeping it! This is why we want to reduce heat, keep the hair hydrated and protect the ends. This will help reduce unnecessary breakage and split ends, which can allow you to trim less often and retain length.
