Big Hair Wig Review: Venessa Half Wig La Jay

This half wig is loved by so many who want to achieve big curly hair and for good reason!  It's inexpensive and perfect for naturals who want to give their hair a break and for transitioning naturals that are still waiting for a little more growth.

Personally, I have purchased this wig twice and both times we did not get along.  To me, the shape and texture of the actual wig is completely different from the pictures posted on the sites that sell it. The web pics give the impression that the wig is more of a round shape and that the texture is kinky when it's really more silky and you would have to give the piece some serious scissor times to achieve a round shape.  Either way, I LOVE it so much on others and I would definitely recommend it to someone looking for a new big hair wig.

Superbeautydepot.com is the only online store that has pictures of the actual wig on a mannequin.  So this pic will give you a more accurate impression of the piece.  $25.99

Big Hair Wig Review

First up to bat is Motown Tress SK Polo Wig Simple Cap! I purchased this wig from my local hair store after seeing it on the mannequin.  It cost me $29.99 but there are a few websites that offer it for less online. The link above directs you to a site that sells it for $21.99. 

The picture that comes on the packaging does this wig no justice whatsoever!  This is a gorgeous piece that is easy to blend with my natural hair.  I used a little of my homemade spritz on a very small section of hair, combed it thru, separated the section in two and then rolled each portion with a 1/2 inch hard roller.  If you have a talent for straw curls, that would probably work better but I have yet to perfect that technique.  For those with permed or straight hair, you could also use a very thin curling iron. 

I give this wig 4.5/5!  My only slight complaint is that the layering is a little off but not so much that i had to take some scissors to it.  Also, the back comb is pretty small but the front comb is about 4-5 inches. On the plus side it comes in about 14 different color options.  Gotta love variety! 

Picture on the packaging.

I purchased the 27/30/2 Mix

Please excuse my Barney eye shadow, I was doing some experimenting with color. I should probably remove the date stamp from my camera as well.  I'll get better at this, you just wait and see...
