I PURCHASED THIS WIG FROM WIGTYPES.COM
PRICE: 70.00
COLOR: 1B
LENGTH: 24IN
Hey guys, so I have a nothing wig review for you today and yes, this is a week that I'm wearing on my head and it is by assist sister wigs. It is the lace braid box. I guess that's what it's called least read box, and this is what the picture looks like and I had this wig in a one, big, okay, you guys so, let's just hop straight into this week, because I don't want this to be a long video. So I they purchased this week from Wiig types, calm and I paid $ 70, but this week this week has a comb on this side. It has a comb on this side and it does. It has a comb in the back with the adjustable straps. This dent come with the lace one straight across from ear to ear, and I just cut the lace off, and this is what it looks like there isn't much part in space. They give you like about this much of a part of space. So basically it's just like from. Let me see, I don't know if you guys can see that, but it's not basically any part of space at all on this unit. So yes, you don't have to worry about shedding or tangling, because it is a Brady unit. Okay, you guys, so I absolutely hate this wig. I think it was a waste of my seventy dollars because it just was not what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be more natural-looking, but I didn't get that wig just looks really unnatural on me. I just don't like it. I will never wear this wig out, so I just feel like I wasted seventy dollars, but I feel like it is worth the $ 70. If you have a nice week company that you like, I just don't like this seen a lot of people, review, box, breeze and the box break weeks, and it looks really good on them. Let me tell you about the things that I don't like, because you guys are probably looking like. Well, it's really nothing wrong with this week, but I tried to fix this wig a lot and then I just gave up because I felt like with synthetic units and especially like a braided unit. You don't really have to do anything, but I found myself like taking the hair out and braiding it over, and I just wasn't for any of that, because I felt like I was basically putting too much work into something that should already you know be. I don't even know the words that I'm trying to say, but it was just basically too much work that I was putting in when I really didn't have to so. Firstly, let me say: let me start by saying that the picture is how the we came. So it looks unnatural to me because when we came it didn't you know how, when you have box braids, it's like the fake hair. Like the part, it's like a fake hair on a root, and then you know it's like. I can't explain this. These braids look like as if you braided your own hair and they're really loose, and it just looks really fake. So what I did was, let me take this down okay, so this is the hair down and before I get into showing you guys the construction of the wig and how they planted this hair, let me stand up, so I can show you guys how long this Wig is so the wig is pretty long. The straggly piece is like right here. That'S really long was me braiding, the hair myself. So that's why it's pieces. That'S long already up close to the wig. You can see that I braided this. I braided everything in the front. You can tell the difference between my braids and the braids that already came in the wig, which they are more tighter, and these are looser. Now you see this like this is just all loose right here and you see how this really looks like because I took fake hair and I braided it to this because that's how a box braids look. It doesn't look like this, so I did all of these braids up here and I did just basically the front row and then I did the second row in the back, but I didn't do them on the side. So it's basically like the first. The second row up here and then on the sides just the first row so yeah. This is what it looks like. This is the hairline. When I do pull it back, the lace does come up. So that's something I don't like as well, but I just feel like after a while of me Bradon the unit I just gave up because I'm like this would literally take me all day and if I was just want to braid this whole wig, I could have Just braid my own hair get me wrong. It is a very gorgeous unit, but I just don't want to put in any more work to make it look how I want it to look so yeah, I'm not gon na wear this unit anymore. I just feel like it looks really really faint. I'M just really disappointed, because the way I look at it is, I spent $ 70 and a $ 70 could have got me like three or four extra. You know three or four weeks that I could have been rocking right now, so I'm just gon na chuck it up and just take this one as a loss. But I mean if you are interested in the wig and you want to put in the work to make it look more realistic, like like real box braids, then by all means you can purchase this week, because I think this is like the cheapest wig that I Found full box braided like a box braided wig, because I think the other wigs by like sensational and I'll trade, what about a hundred dollars? So if you want to spend that kind of money, I think that it's worth it, it's definitely worth it. If you find a wig that it's constructed well, but this just looks really thick to me: you, okay, you guys, so I'm done with this video, I'm just gon na end it right here! So if you have any questions about this unit or just anything in general, feel free to leave it in a comment section down below
Comments
TheHeartsandCake90: Great and Honest review :)
Khalisha Iman: I literally just spit out my iced tea laughing so hard girl @ I hate this wig! I love your videos and they are always so real and on point. Your honesty is truly appreciated bc I was really thinking about ordering this unit. You definitely helped me save my coins and you still look fabulous boo despite the poor construction of this wig! ;-)
Stephanie Currie: They must've revamped this unit. I have it in 1B and love it. It's 30 inches, though and has no filler hairs. It's also braided all the way down. People think my hair is really braided
Adrienne Hall: I braid a row across the front of my hair and the braids blend in amazing.
angel blasio: Girl you did a great job trying to remake what they ruined. You re-created the look to your best ability and yours look much better than what they had. I agree with you girl! 70 bucks can go a long way when purchasing wigs. If the hair texture is good you could possibly undo the braids and wear it in a wavy style. If I bought something that expensive I'd be pissed though I'd look for ways to reconstruct it into something new altogether. I love the way you did the front. It looks SO WELL. The braids in the back look like your homie was playing with your hair during storytime or something.
deana diedrich: This wig looks beautiful on you! You look amazing in your units. Only you will know the problem and defects you experience with this unit. I love it! When I braid my on hair using pack of synthetic hair it takes me 11 days just to create this beautiful style in micro braids! So I might purchase this unit, be patient and work with it.... I really love this!
- 𝗦𝗮𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 -: Thank goodness I had went to my beauty supply store and checked one out. I was like oh heck no. Great review love
Crafting with Angie: First off let me say that you look absolutely gorgeous in this wig. Second, I do agree with you about the construction of this wig, they could have done a better job getting the braids to look more realistic by tightening them like box braids are suppose to be. The style accentuates your beautiful face and maybe if you give it time (lol) you could tighten up the braids and wear it. It really looks beautiful on you, but I agree with you because paying $70.00 I would expect better quality in the workmanship. :)
Shamoka.Molene: Great review....I agree with you about this wig....I have seen ones that look more like real box braids...but more pricey as well.
DeeDee: I agree, for a $70 synthetic unit, you shouldn't have to do all that to the unit!!!! It looks cute on you though!!!!! But I get where you coming from!!!!!!! Tfs Girl!!!!!!!!!!!
MsSugarNSpyce: I am sooo glad you posted this video! I was debating on purchasing it but i figured it looked just like this. Totally unnatural. You made it look much better in the front though.
Rachel Chappell: I bought the same one and I thought it was me just being inexperienced. I'm also very upset that I spend so much money on a let down like this.
mzbrazell: At first glance that wig looks very nice, but when you showed us the back and all through it I felt bad for you wasting your money like that! Thanks for this review! ❤️
Zury Hollywood: Sorry it seems like it was huge disappointment to you. We will take your honest review and try our best to improve the product! :) Thank you for your review,
A Melendez: The wig looks great on you.... and you can save it for winter and throw a cute cap on.... thanks for a great review
LovelyLady Carter: I appreciate your honesty ppl always lying for companies, and that I hate! I understood fully what you meant about not wanting to perform more maintenance on a wig, I mean what a waste of time, but you made it look really nice :-)
ashowers86: All your wigs are always on point!! Your so beautiful
Lovely Sharolyn: Looks very nice on you and actually natural, rock it for fun don't give up on it :)
2ys2bafool: I always watch your reviews....Thank you for your honesty...
Dee West: thanks for that review. At first I was shocked that you said you didn't like it because I said it looks so good though. but when you compared what you did to how it came, I saw what looked good was your work.
Noire7781: Honest review gets you a new subbie! :-)
latasha85: i died when she said "i absolutely....hate this wig" lol
curlsbygrace: Lol haha! I laughed when you said I hate this wig! Lol it does look cute on you though! I have been wanting to buy the outre one you could probable rock it with a hat really nicely
asia.dolll: Thanks for the review, i almost got that wig you saved me some bucks.
Saychic Boutique: I see these wigs are becoming popular. I purchased the one by sensational. I hope I don't hate it if so ima only rock it with head wraps. Thanks for the great review.
honeytantv: Great review!!! This is wayyyyyy too much maintenance for me (not a fan of doing hair) so I appreciate your honesty.
2UMSRN: Appreciate the honesty
A VIEW IS A VIEW: Wow...I see what you are saying. The braid pattern that you did is better than how the wig looked. Your braids look perfect. But all in all. You look gorgeous in that style.
Retsukopanda: love your honesty :)
BlackHairandSkinCare: And I was just about to buy too. No thank you... Thanks for the review hun
Lisa Hardy: I started to agree with your disgust referring to the wig, but as you got closer to the camera...it really didn't look so bad. I think I want it lol
NaturalJoy: New subbie! In the winter time maybe rock it with a beanie or a hat!
Roshawnda Walker: Thanks for your honest review.
Sung Mook: Yeah the hairline is terrible. Thank you for your honest review!
Jennifer J. Davis: I subscribed too you because your honest on every review
Raven Meyers: Thanks for informing us! Very overpriced for the quality! Scratched off my list.
Kim Correa: I don’t think they should sell the box braids unless it is throughout the whole head. I am with you it is disappointing. I have been looking around and unless you wanna pay almost 200.00 then all of them suck in my opinion. These companies should know better
Lonnie X: Thank you for the review but could you PLEASE do a makeup tutorial? please
sandrine achoundong: Hey I found this wig on ebay. they have different lenght and different still.. I love it!!!! I will do Video shortly. The name of the seller is "majolwig". The name of the wig that I bought is "Women's Lace Front Handmade Single Braid Wigs"
Breana Williams: you have to get the braided wigs from sensationnel those are the ones that look the most realistic
Somebody LovesYou: Oh no you have to check out the sensationnel senegalese lace front wig. AMAZING! I reviewed it on my channel.
K O: Thanks for this. you shouldn't have to do all of that!
Kat Smith: it looks so good on camera
MakeupBae Lici: Girl I thought you were buggin when you said you didn't like it until you went in depth. For $70 it better braid itself ! lolx
2ys2bafool: Great job...Keep them coming...
MsAppleJacks: thank you for being honest!!
jamie pickens: I love that lacefront
Monica B.: i dont think it looked that bad.. and you can also put on a nice knitted beanie...i can see u in a cream colored one for the winter... cute
Waffles: How long did shipping last? Did baby hair come with it
five10queen: I think you look gorgeous: the unit. I literally just bought this wig and my braids don't look like that in the back. maybe they re vamped it.
mstcherie13: wow i see where u were coming from. u really put the work in though. i would be disappointed buying a wig and having to do all that rebraiding nah.however the style does suit you and i like the concept of these braided/twisted wigs. ive watched a few reviews and most people end up rebraiding the front, but the ones i have seen made well look sooo good! But the cost is a bit much.i think i will try making my own DIY braided wig with an old wig as it saves money.
Patricia May: It looks beautiful on you on the video
Lindasuella: Thanks so much for your honesty...
The Matrix: I bought a sis lacefront wig ( small braids) $185.00 it has a scalp with parts and its braided beatifully. I got lucky. I boggt it from a beauty supply. The one your wearing is $159.00 and i didnt like it.
Michelle McGriff: The one I ordered from SIS... a number 4 was awful. It had NO hair at all on it. I didn't send it back (more trouble than worth) so I just have been adding hair to it over the months. Maybe by summer I'll be finished (smile). I've used as much hair as I used to put on my own head when i had hair and still it's not as full as I would like.. thinking of switching to a number for rasta hair just to make it thicker and more filled in... but yours looks great on you.
TwinGodesses: Love this!!!!
camille espy: It's on wig types for 40 bucks and so are the oute xpression wigs
1stlady2u: I think it's cute, maybe try taking the braids loose for a braid-out look and see if you like that!
Sherie: the original braids that come with it are too loose, waste of $70 but now you know better. I agree with you %100
April Hayes-Jones: It's looks really cute on u
Daquana Boyd: The sensationnel/outre braided lace wigs look way better and natural...i had wondered why this one was in particular was less pricy and now i see why
Shhmoney Bunny TV: did you try taking all the braids down before you got rid of it? you can blow dry synthetic hair on low and it makes it prettier and smoother on the ends sometimes
Lindasuella: Appreciate your honesty..
Butterscotchchick: I see what you mean, and you are right, you shouldn't have to do all that customization after spending all that money for a synthetic wig. Here's an idea......dip it in hot water and let it dry, then loose out the plaits and see what it looks like then, maybe you might like it that way as a braid out.
Lotus 1979: Can you do a make up tutorial? And we need to know the lipstick color. It's Gorge!
Gerwanna Moore-Allen: I have the Outre Small Box Braid lace front unit. So many people ask me where I get my braids done at! The unit has a lot of parting space, and skin color lace. Its sold out online, but its WORTH the $99 or $ 89, depending on the site you get it from. If you can find it in the store, its WORTH the money!
Kate Abraham: I think it is the brand that sucks. I have seen quite a few reviews on the SIS braided units and while they look good, they look too wiggy. The ones from sensationnel and outre look way more realistic and the sensationnel box braid has a realistic part in the front. One thing though is all the box braids don't start from the roots cos the looser it is, the less hair they need to cover the tracks or lace underneath. The little senegalese twists don't seem to have that problem cos it has more hair I believe.
Technicolor-mom: I know your feelings but honestly it looks great I wouldn't say 70 dollars lost completely
Mikki Ray: The best braided wig ever
kpickett80: You should sell it :)
MountainsOfBeauty: It looks great on you , I didn't notice the part issues until u said so but thx for the review I was thinking of this one, well I'll guess I'll check another one
Monique Conrad: OMG I'm in trouble bc I ordered this particular wig yesterday. I hope that I have better results. I wish that I would've ran across your video sooner
angelique simmons: thanks for your honesty
Lisa: I got this wig and want to know if yours came all sewed together towards the back and did you had to cut that so the braids become loose?
Jessica Morris: What is on your lips? Love that color on you!
Lovely Lasean: Girl why you didn't get the sensationnel one? It's a lot better, we appreciate your honesty! :)
Jae's Cleaning: Girl, I feel ur frustration thru the screen. Lol, u hooked it up tho
Atyia Lavan: Suggestion: i would take all the braids out and where the wig crinkle....
stephshe100: I understand what you mean about the wig but it looks much better with what you did to it. You should try to resell it at a lower price so you can recoup some of your money back, someone might want it.
Cocoa Goddess: Wow all tha fuss and nothing wrong with the wig...
One & Done: Yeah, They're dead wrong for that unit.
Niesyj1: It's really pretty on you
Fatimah H: wow, too bad you cut the lace off...you could have returned that crap!!!...I had to return one,,,great job on review and re-braiding the front...thanks for showing the back otherwise someone would think the entire unit looks as good as what you fixed in the front...
Asia Tyree show: Hello . First of all I have to say that the unit looks good on u second I'm sorry that you had to put work in to it. 3rd these companies r full of shit. It's so sad that China make 10 billions of dollars off of selling us this bs. But won't give us what we pay for. And it's said that they take the art of braiding. Any type of style we do they come up with a short cut to get it done faster. Smfh. It's like they rewriting history. What does this tell the next generation that come after us. That you don't have to bread it or bun it or dread it or go natural or relax it. Or grow it when you can buy it
Maresha G: Take the braids out n just wear it as a regular wig so u won't feel like u wasted 70$ by not wearing it
OhSo805: Why they try it like that!!! I'm pissed for u! however, I looks great from the front! I would put it up into different styles like a high bun and put a wrap on or something on. thanks for sharing! =)
Jessica Merritt: were did u get the wig from it so pretty?
Jiamesha Cavers: It's a nice wig but it was too much hair showing in the back made it look very unreal
Darby Farr: What lipstick are you wearing? It's so pretty
Fck Y’all: Yeah this wig is bad for the price. They are cheaper and nicer ones by X-pression. They are soo realistic.
Micheala: The part that you did looked great from a distance, but the back looked like it couldn't be rescued..
Love LaTanya: Thank you for letting us know the real on this wig. But cant you turn it into some things else? I mean I only say this because you did spend $70 on it... Do you think it could work as another type of wig. Take the braids out, maybe?
Cyrious: mosdef looks good on you but I feel you on the back if it had more part space.. but looks cute
Nephy V: thank u for ur honesty. Not many ppl like to post up the negative about the hair they buy. And yes, it definitely does look cute on u, but what made it cute is all the wrk u put in on that unit...smh. I hope u found a better one.
shiloh kosh: do they actually all pull up like that?
Gille87: U should have gotten Sensationnel or Outre. Much better and they look real. People can't tell.
Camila Cristina Costa de Almeida Cristina: Damn amazing
Sharee Minor: I can't remember which one, but sensationnel or zury is better.
kenocrazylady: Girl I understand what you saying about the wig but the wig still looks good on you and yeah it does look like a fake look like you braided your own hair but to me you can pull it off because you look BIRACIAL native and black NO offense or anything :-)
Mochahontas: I thought it looked good from this distance
