It's Not The Wig Its The Application!

 
There has been an elephant in the room of the lace wig niche that's overstayed its welcome and I feel the need to address it. I have kept my mouth shut for far too long. This post is dedicated to the lace wig haters out there. I am not trying to bash anyone because that's not my style. Its all about professionalism.


So let me get straight to the point.


To my understanding many people have a negative connotation about lace wigs. To the point where when doing a twitter search alone people openly express that they hate lace wigs, lace fronts, people that wear lace fronts. I have even read overtly harsh tweets of people saying ludicrous things like people who wear lace fronts should die or the inventor of lace fronts should be dead and rumors about lace fronts causing cancer.


Okay I feel that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. If that's how you truly feel than so be it. That's how you feel I cannot change the opinions of others and I am not going to try to. 


However I will address this. I am a lace wig designer and I strongly feel that the inventor of lace wigs is brilliant. Not alone for money making purposes and dipping into the African American hair market which is part of a 9 billion dollar industry, but more importantly for giving cancer patients that ability to wear a realistic hair piece after losing their hair as a result of treatments.


Can you imagine how devastating it would be to lose ALL of your hair not by choice?


Additionally, lace fronts help those that suffer from Alopecia. They give people that suffer from trichotillomania hair confidence and the ability to wear a hair piece without being bullied. Plus they help burn patients and others that have medically related hair ailments.


Plus, many females rock lace fronts for cosmetic reasons and convenience purposes and nothing is wrong with that.


Lace front wigs are about making women look and feel beautiful. Giving her the ability to have a style that she desired and a more realistic hairline.


So I applaud the inventor of lace fronts and I applaud lace wig consultants and lace wig designers who dare to take the challenge to make lace wigs or sell them and don't stop or be discouraged because what you do is great.


Now for those of you that despise lace fronts. I honestly don't think you despise the wig itself you don't care for the way they are applied when applied incorrectly that is. Many people do not know how to apply lace front wigs correctly and how to achieve an undetectable hairline. That's where my job comes in - not to hate on them, but to help through teaching them proper application techniques.


Just like someone can be a beautiful person but had a bad make up job. Its not necessarily the make-up that was bad it was an incorrect application,wrong choice of shade, or overdone makeup. The same thing with lace front wigs. Its not the wig its the application people. Its an unrealistic hairline, too much glue, or simply put a wig that doesn't fit.


Just like this can be solved with make-up you learn to apply better by being taught or practicing over and over again. The same applies to a bad weave. The same applies to applying  a lace front or full lace unit. You are taught or you have to practice over and over again to get it right. Or you can seek a professional and have it applied correctly.


With that being said, I love lace fronts and full lace wigs. They have changed the lives of others drastically for the better. So if you rock them - rock on and wear them with pride!

Sick and tired of Unruly Hair?

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired when it comes to your hair?
Image of a tangled weave!



 I am talking to those who have suffered far too long from sitting under the dryer for far too long, suffering from burns, dry and itchy scalp. Tired of spending money over and over and over again on hair. If you are tired of anything listed below then you need to pay attention!

Are you Tired of: 

  • Hard to comb hair 
  • Tight braids 
  • Bad Weaves 
  • Overtly Expensive Weaves 
  • Damaging bonds 
  • Burns that are a result of relaxers 
  • Hair Damage 
  • Not having time in the morning for your hair 
Then this post is dedicated to you. I don't know which one I hate more waiting forever and a day in the hair salon for my hair to get done or sitting under the hot as day dryer - forever feeling ignored. I just cannot be bothered. Don't have the patience or the time. I am sure you feel the same way too. The only good outcome of this is obviously looking and feeling good. 

But you too can look and feel good without all the sacrifices. This will cause you to spend less time in the salon under the hot dryer and more time with your family and friends. Plus save money. 



 Its time for you to beat this hair frustration NOW!
My solution to you is trying a wig. I am not saying ignore your hair problems. I want you to deal with them, embrace them, but still look flawless without suffering.

With a lace front wig and correct application you will get a realistic looking hairline. No one will know its a wig. You can even get a wig that matches the texture of your real hair for a natural look.To top that off lace front wigs can be styled however you want with no additional chemicals. They do not look wiggy.

We help you to take care of them and apply them. Contact us today for a free consultation so you can be one step closer to looking great and no longer being frustrated about your hair.

Celebrating Black Hair: Going Short

Recently I was browsing through a blog about a week ago and they gave a timeline on hair. There were nice hairstyles through the decades in there but NOT one black hairstyle was in place. Well that's where the saying "when you want something done do it yourself" falls into play. For black history month - I want to focus on black hair. Today's post is about chopping it off!

How many of you can reflect back on when you got a haircut and when the hairdresser asked you how you wanted your cut? You referred to Chrisette, Rihanna, Mary, T-boz, Toni, Monica, and of course we cannot forget trend-setter Halle Berry.

Everyone around me is cutting their hair and I am JEALOUS.

Many people are cutting their hair for various reasons: wanting a new look, hair damage, etc.

Are you considering cutting you hair?  Don't be scared. It's a new, yet wonderful feeling. Even better it's liberating. You shouldn't dwell on whether or not you want to cut your hair - you just have to do it!

I say go for it. Cutting you hair is not just about a new look or being bold and different. It's about making a statement for yourself. There is no greater feeling than cutting your hair knowing that you now have healthy hair. Short hair is unique and sexy. I've cut my hair several times for a new look and new beginning. My favorite was when I shaved one side of me head like Cassie and put designs in the side.
  
                                                                

 Helpful Tips if your going to go for the big chop:

  • Go with a few different images of what you want
  • Once you cut OWN it
  • Always try to keep your brows done 
  • Use this as an opportunity to play around with make up 
  • Play around w/ accessories too!
  • Have fun Your hair will not be short forever!
  • Save money by going to the barber for shape ups


Too scared to cut then you can always try a wig, or a really short weave.

A Simple Solution for Transitioning Easily from Relaxers to Dreads:

Are you considering giving up relaxers to eventually go dread?

It’s no secret that the transitioning process is not smooth. Going and being natural is a lifestyle. Though it may not be a smooth transition this article is going to make it a bit easier for you.

A lot of females have decided to get rid of the creamy crack and go natural. However, one of the biggest decisions you will have to make is whether you are going to cut off your hair and start from scratch or try to transition out.

Either way to some the bold statement of cutting off your hair can be scary or transitioning from a mixture of straight ends and natural roots can be frustrating and daunting.

Going natural is a beautiful thing and not all women are bold enough to do it. So just the fact that you are going to do it, you should give yourself credit. Look at Rochelle Ritchie for example, a Florida news reporter who was in the public eye and took the huge jump to go natural for the sake of herself, and future news reporters.
The first thing that is advised is that you talk to a loctician. They can help guide you the right way.

Also, of course you want to look to www.mydreadlocks.com for tips, tricks, and advice when it comes to maintaining and styling our dreads. 

The next thing is if you are transitioning and do not have the time or money to necessarily maintain your natural do. Its highly suggested that you wig it. While wearing a lace front wig you can achieve a natural hairline and manageable look while prepping your natural hair for its biggest stages.

A lace front wig is the closest thing that you are going to get to having relaxed hair without processing your real hair. It is also a safe and effective way to promote healthy hair growth. A lace front wig is not permanent; Therefore, you can put it on and take it off when you want.

Why you should get a lace wig when first starting to transition to natural hair to eventually transition to locs?
·      
  • It    It will help save you time in the morning


  • ·       It will keep you less frustrated with your real hair and AWAY from the creamy crack


  • ·       It allows you the ability to freely take care of your hair


  • ·        It will save you money


  • ·       You will be able to still follow the instructions of your loctician.


  • ·       It can be helpful if you work in a position where head wraps and hats are not allowed within their dress code.


A lace front wig is something that you should definitely consider. For those of you that want more info on lace front wigs. Please visit us at www.queenslace.com.
