Do you know of any good wig stores in MI or a good brand? There doesn't seem to be too many stores around where I live...

It shouldn't be like that after 3 days, my synthetic wigs last approx 3 months before they start to get a bit shabby looking, then they get relegated to dog -walking wigs! I would take that back immediately.The only thing I can think of is that you have let heat get near it, that is so bad for a synthetic wig, you even have to be careful when you are opening the oven door, the heat that blast out is bad for your wig!
I wear Rene of Paris Amore or Noriko, they are the best in my experience, I have wore wigs for 5 years now and I am in England so my choices aren't as great as U.S but I have had no trouble with those types.
Good luck

Some wigs I've had go frizzy sooo fast too. I've had some longer ones & they lasted me like two weeks :( The longer the wig, the sooner you will have to buy news ones. My advice is to stick with haircuts that don't touch the shoulders, they will last you A LOT longer than long wigs. I usually buy Belle Madame wigs, it's a European brand but they last like 4 months. Very good quality hair. I'd stay away from Noriko, their wigs are so expensive but the hair quality is super cheap. I can totally relate to how frustrating it gets. I feel the same way about my wigs. Another advice I can give you, try not to use bodylotion too much where the hair touches the skin, it can also damage the hair. As in not too much on your neck or shoulders, depending how long your wig is.

Having had AU for most of my life and wearing wigs for almost 30yrs, I can tell you this....buy cheap. I find a style I really like (generally Paula young) and when they have sales (and they do often), I buy several at a time. I can buy them usually for about $40-50 bucks. They may not last as long (usually about 6 months), but because they are so cheap, i can buy them more often. What i do is keep the older ones for when I know i'm going to be doing activities where i might sweat alot and that way I dont have to wash the newer ones as often. Another trick i do is also buy similar styles but that are each a bit longer than the other, that way when i change them, it simply looks like my hair has grown some and when i go back to the shorter style, i just tell people i've had a hair cut. Works great!!!
