Hey Amy

I'm not overly knowledgeable about wigs that mix synthetic hair with human hair. I am assuming the human hair is processed...so there can and will be varying results with this type of hair. I think fly always etc. may occur.

This is what I know about curly unprocessed virgin human hair. It will react like people's curly hair. It can have fly always with humidity. The straighter hair choices should not have this type of issue, they are often smoother. You know Amy, when people come and chat with me about having curls (especially) if they originally had straight hair - I always warn that you need to know how to look after curls. It's funny but when people have had curly hair originally they invariably ask for straighter hair...possibly they know that curls do what curls do. :)

I love curly hair as my daughters growing hair when she had it, was curly... I really liked it. Last year we got her a new wig 'light curl, 10 inches long... I love it but I really understand curls and what they do...pop into my page and you will see Libby in that wig. See what you think and if it is similar to what you are wearing. If you do get curls, brushing and over combing would not be something I would recommend to achieve the best look with curls.

Hope this helps Amy good luck with your possible new look!

I think human/synthetic blends are a bad idea in my opinion. I had to send mine back and stick to all human hair. You kind of get the worst of both worlds. You can't really style it like you would human hair, yet it doesn't stay in place as a synthetic would. Plus, I got the "heat-resistant" fibers and I had serious static electricity going on, ugh!

I like wavy human hair wigs and systems, and have not noticed any excessive frizz.

I have curly hair and it does take some knowledge on how to tame it. My hair isn't a tight curl, but I still never brush it or it frizzes. I comb it with a wide tooth comb in the shower and then I try not to touch it much or it tends to frizz. Deep conditioning is a must and I can only use certain products. My daughter has AU and I think I would steer her away from curly wigs. You just have a lot more flexibility with straight hair. I am assuming since it is human hair it would react the same as mine does. If you do go with the curly wig, check out some of the natural curly hair websites. They have a lot of good advice on taming the curls. Good luck!
