Aw..thanks! =) I do love my short hair too, and I keep going back and fourth because sometimes I miss having long hair, but then the short hair is so comfy. But your info is VERY helpful because my main concern was the long hair getting knotted and whether or not I'd be able to put it in a pony tail. So, thanks SO MUCH for all your help!!! =)
Did you get my last message?? I got an email that it was rejected because your email address doesn't exist. I was like, what?! It had an attachment to it, so maybe it was just a clever virus. So just let me know that you got my last message OK. It was in response to your latest ww result.
I haven't ordered it yet. I'm getting information sent to me, and then I'll make my first appointment. I want to get a long one too, but all the long wigs i've had have made me really hot and they get so knotted in the back...I have to constantly be brushing it. And when I try to put them in a pony tail, it just looks so unnatural. So, my short one has been the best for me, and I love it, so I wouldn't mind getting a short one again, but I'd rather have a long one. Have u run into any of those problems??
Hi Lee,
I noticed you have a wig from Freedom Wigs and it really looks great!! I'm looking into getting one right now, and I just wanted to see what your experience has been with it. I want to get a long hair wig, but I have a short one right now because it's so much more comfortable...but I've only had sythetice wigs.
Hey Lee I am a fellow New Yorker/ Alopecian, So I figured say hi and get to know you a little. Its always good to know that your not alone. Talk to you soon.
Also, do you draw your eyebrows on or are they permanent. Since my AU I have had a tough time with my eyebrows and was thinking about getting them permanently tattooed on. Your's look so natural!
lee,
No it does not hurt or burn. I have no problems at all. Just apply it and leave it. My head itches sometimes but that is normally around the time I need to wash it.
its a little hard to explain. It is similar to a weave but because I dont have the hair to bond it to I have to take an additional step. I buy hair that is on a track and then it is a little process. It does hold for about 2 months depends on how much curling and tugging I do. If I swim then I just put a cap on it. Hopes that answers your questions.
they do it at some salons and charge god awful amounts of money like 1200.00 and it last 6 months. I do it at home for free.... I learned to do it some years ago before it was popular and have been doing it every since. It keeps me from dealing with the hot wig situation and have to worry about it coming if in the wind.
Well Lee I am not going out in public bald either. I dont have the hot hair issues because I dont wear wigs. Wigs are so hot in the summer. I have hair bonded to my head so it gets done every two months and that is about the only time I am bald .
I liked the comment you made on the post. Wearing a wig is not hiding who you are. We all have a right to do what most makes us comfortable. As long as they sell hair i am going to wear it. I do not like a bald head for myself and dont think I will ever.
Great, Lee -- tell me how you like the book! Did you get past PayPal? Just ignore it and don't sign in -- click "continue." Lots of people have trouble with that so don't feel like the Lone Stranger.
Hi Lee,
Yes, I have lots of makeup tips in the book and teach you how to make your eyes look like you have eyelashes, info about eyebrows and also talk about permanent makeup. I wear bottom lashes sometimes but because it's a hassle, I usually just use makeup on the bottom. I had permanent eyeliner and eyebrows, but it was excruciatingly painful, and it faded rather quickly -- and I didn't like the looks of the eyebrows. Not real looking. Also I have scarring in my eyebrow area from the needles, and -- the technician actually got the needle in my eye. There's an ink spot there, my eye doctor noticed it! Talk about PAIN!

Thanks for the info on the vacuum wig and eyebrows. I hate drawing mine on and your look awesome so I am really considering getting them tattooed on.

I'll say it again, your new hair looks amazing. It's so shiny and a fab colour.
