Synthetic Headband Wigs For Exercising With Hair Loss Ft. Blom Headband

Hey here queens welcome back to my channel, and i am here to talk to you about something pretty important to me. Uh. It was very important for me to find a way to comfortably work out or be active, um wearing alternative hair, and i don't want to wear my nice wig and i also don't want to wear my nice hair toppers, my nice pieces in general. Just because you know you don't want to get them sweaty and then um just get them like all like wearing their life out for working out, because it'll be like tied up and you're sweating, and all that. So i wanted to find a good alternative enter my trial of cheap, like pony wigs on amazon. So first i actually tried a regular wig um just to see how it would hold one. It didn't hold that well like a cheap, 20 one and then two it just looked really unrealistic, i'll go ahead and insert a photo here just to see what i'm talking about. Even with a headband like you could still see like that. Um, fake scalp area and just really cheap wigs with uh on amazon are like just cheap wigs in general. Their scalps are just like uh. They don't give me life so um. I started to um think about other alternatives, but originally what i was wearing is this: isn't my hair topper? This is just a hair topper. I have right um. This is actually my mom's. It'S the only one i have right now here, and so i was originally wearing like an old like one of my first hair toppers. It was very light and it was a little maybe like twice uh two times bigger than this, but i mean a wig just kind of like suctions your to your head and holds on better than a topper does because a topper, just kind of like sits on The top and it's not very supported, and it's just kind of like sitting up there and although you tied or whatever or they clip it in and the eclipse is another thing um. You know when you're being active, it might like tug or whatever. But it's just like not as secure as holding onto your whole head. So after i tried the amazon um the cheap wig i dove into pony wigs or ponytail wigs, and this is one of them. So i just got like it's synthetic hair um, which is actually kind of nice because, like when you tie up early hair or when you try, tie up human hair um like when you're working out or whatever it does tend to sometimes get a crease from. Like your um, or at least my human hair toppers did when i worked out with them a crease from the hair tie, and then you know you have it all, because you're working out, um kind of tied up or whatever and the hair gets kind of, like Messed up or like frizzy or whatever, and with like synthetic it just stays. Pin straight, so you don't have to worry about that. Um and what's amazing, about a pony uh. A ponytail wig is that it has no um, no part which, when you're purchasing a cheap piece. That is ideal because that's when it looks really fake, like i said like in the other one so with this one, you just um put it on and there is no part. So you don't have to worry about any of that and let's get this baby on. Then so i am taking off my wig. This is my milano wig. I like that you could just keep the hairstyle for later and then i'm wearing it with a wig grip, so i'm taking that off, and so i was kind of experimenting how to best wear this. So what i want to do first is put my hair up in a ponytail or like just like in just so it's out of the way. Really. I can honestly just use like bobby pins. I'Ve done that just so, i'm not like tying the hair too much, but just for this to make sure i get it out of the way i'll do like a really really small, bun. Okay and now we are going to so, has velcro it kind of it's almost like a wig grip like the structure of a wig grip, how it has like the velcro, and then you just kind of like put it on your head more like this. So it's kind of the structure: it's not a it's, not a grip, though so inside of here you can see it has two clips on the sides. I don't really use those and then a clip like on the top. Here again, i don't really use that just because it's not going to help with the little hair i have so i'm gon na go ahead and put this on pretty similar to how you would put a wig on and then you're just grabbing these uh. The velcro ends making sure it's nice and snug. Okay, then you can drag it back. So it's nice that this has like a nice big band to kind of like cover it in case you kind of want to just wear it like that. But i find i have to make sure that it's actually like more like this, because where the actual tracks are that's what is like most secure and i feel like i have to have that pretty close to my head forehead. But it doesn't matter because i'm gon na put a headband on anyways if you see like the tracks or whatever so just making sure it's like nicely snug on this is kind of what it looks like down. I feel like i could feel the little bump, but you're gon na have your hair up anyway, so it doesn't matter so. I'M gon na grab a hair tie and then just tie her up now, if you can see if you like, you can see like the velcro and like the band or whatever that grabs on um, but not to worry, because we are putting on a headband on Top of this for extra security, i do make sure it's pretty snug, though, because i'm not trying to it's not just for like working out on like the treadmill or like working out um like stationary or anything that was my dog that just like, ran over so Say: hi ping, beanie um, i do aerial silks, so that means i'm going to be. You know climbing up on the silk and inverting flipping. You know sweating, i'm going to be like 20 feet in the air, so i do not have time to worry about. Like, oh, my god is my piece going to come off or anything um. Okay. So let me show you this headband, why i love it um, so this headband is one i got from amazon from this company called blom. I think i'm pronouncing that right and i i cannot stress it, can't just be any headband like it's important to have a headband that i like ones, that one can be worn kind of like bigger, stretched out or like worn a little closer together. But most importantly, it has to be snug enough because, if you're just wearing it um like one that's kind of loose or whatever, it's not going to support or help provide more security, you know, but so this one's pretty cool. So you can wear it like this. So it's like the just like plain side, or this one has more like a little decorative um tie here. Um, i'm not too crazy about that. Personally, i might actually end up cutting it off because it's kind of separate um, but you know everybody, you know, live your truth to. However, you like um, however, you like it and what i actually saw, what was really cool? Well one. It has this like little diagram on, like all the different ways you can like wear it, which i thought was like pretty cool um and they have a ton of nice, colors um. You know, and then i saw this - that they have on the diagram, which i don't think i do, but it said how to double it up like you, can wear two headbands to make it look very secure, which i don't know i feel like. That would be a lot on our heads yeah at that point um, but another point it makes is: if you feel like it's too loose, you can throw it into the dryer to tighten it a little bit so over time. If it kind of stretches out, i can definitely do that. So, okay, i'm just going to put it on again: hi bing weenie hi, papa um - and this is just like the added like thing that you need to make it look natural or more natural, so yeah you can wear it kind of like cinched together or you Can like spread it out more and like sometimes i like, leaving out a little bit of my bio hair just to make it look a little more natural. But i like um and it's a little easier. If you do the hair pulling out before you uh, strap it all in but like bringing out some like baby hairs. So it looks like a little more natural like of your own hair. Maybe pull it back a bit but yeah that's pretty much it and i feel like i. I have done several classes where i flip and everything or like do inverted poses, and it has not budged, um and if you wanted to, you, can do other things like you could try wearing like a wig grip underneath, if you feel like it might help uh. You could try like um, adding clips if you feel like you need it so yeah and now you don't have to worry about any of the fake. Even if you wore like a thinner headband, you don't have to worry about, like the part looking fake, because it's just like um all hair, like normal people, put their hair back like that, and then also another thing you could do is um. If it looks really shiny because i noticed like it is pretty shiny, when it's new, especially like synthetic hair - is also, you can um get a dry shampoo, and i did that sprayed a little bit and that kind of like added a little more dullness, which was Perfect and i bought a second one, because i wasn't sure which one i was gon na like better uh, which this one's actually longer, but it's a similar concept that has like the band, although this one has velvet instead of the um the sleek material. This one has so let me just throw that on really quick to see. What'S up so the hair doesn't like go everywhere. I do like to tie it in this like light not too tight ponytail just so i can get it on easier and since it is, this is a cheap piece and it's synthetic. It does tangle more than like a regular um human hair. Nice piece would, and it does shed - i haven't noticed a lot of you know shedding, but like i do, try to be careful to not throw it around or anything like that yeah. It was much easier to put it on with like this. Yes, look at this look okay. Now, i'm not sure how much this velvet part helps but yeah that definitely has to wear a headband with that, because you can see like a track line or whatever okay. So this is the second one on so these, like i said these are synthetic cheap 20, something dollar pieces 26 or something so it's not the best quality. I mean it is open wefted, which is good, so it's a little more or actually this one's clothes wefted. This other one's open, wefted um, so that one's supposed to be a little cooler either way, i don't mind either um, i'm not too heat sensitive, and if you like to run your hands or fingers through it, it will shed again because they're like cheap, cheaper pieces. But it means it's not falling out everywhere um, but i have only used this one, maybe like six or five times uh, and for to really know how long it'll last and everything how it'll hold up i'll have to wear it for a while, once gyms open Back up again i'll be able to wear them consistently right now, i'm not since i'm just like at home and stuff, but um on my instagram i'll, definitely update how they're um keeping up or how they're doing how long they're lasting and how they wear. But another thing that i did to keep it a little more secure since i was like doing flips and inverting and stuff is so you. This is the very front comb. I would slip a piece of velcro into there and not even sew it or anything just slip it underneath the comb and it would hold and then kind of press it down check out my velcro video, if you haven't already it is like one of the previous Videos i use it on hair toppers and it works really well to add some security, so i definitely recommend you check that out. If you don't know what i'm talking about but yeah, this is the other one. I think this was a little longer than this. The other one than the previous one but yeah the headband it covers like that band in the back. You can also pull your hair out here. If, like you felt like it, didn't look as realistic, but i mean it's the back your head in a headband. So why wouldn't it as far as which one feels more secure, i feel like they're. Both they both feel pretty equally secure again, i'd have to like wear them and have them in action to like really know you could add bobby pins. If you want extra security like there's a lot of things, you can kind of try but yeah. This is how i go and do pretty intense workouts um, and it's worked so far, which is awesome. Um, definitely don't want it slipping off or anything while i'm like doing a flip in for the class or anything like that and like honestly they're, it's pretty comfortable, i feel like i could maybe run errands or, like you know, if i was just like hanging out At home, in and out of the house like no one would know, no one would know so um a definitely good alternative, and it doesn't always have to be this like higher pony up here. It could be like a low, a pony or something um, but yeah. I hope you guys found this helpful. I know it's kind of a struggle, sometimes to like how many will come. How am i going to work out? How am i going to be in the pool like this could be a pool option which, if you have it down like in a little pony or maybe even try a braid like this, would for sure be even more secure than like putting it kind of higher. Just like kept having it kind of on the side there. Sometimes it does get kind of bumpy from like i could feel like the fabric collecting or something but honestly, like you, can't see it, and it doesn't bother me just when, like i kind of touch the head, which it's not a big deal to me at all, I hope you, ladies found this helpful. I know. Sometimes you know you just want to live your life and not put your other more expensive, wigs like under the fire, so this is definitely a good alternative. I recommend it i'll have the links to both these uh. In the bottom, i do recommend these more than like this, the cheap amazon wigs because it doesn't have this feature, which adds like the added security with like uh the band and then also these don't have the hair part which um that's that giveaway, that it is A a wig be sure to follow me on instagram. Not just me all the wonderful ladies around the world. Are there um that are there to like kind of assist and share in the hair community and don't forget. We are fierce, knowledgeable and taking control i'll see in the next one. Ciao
