Everyday Wigs Lace Front Review

Hello fellow internet bloggers!  I hope you all have been having lovely holidays this year.  Now that I've got my laptop back and figured out how to balance this blog and the rest of my life, I have another review.  This review is over Everyday Wigs lace front wig.  I got this wig because their Instagram was hosting a giveaway for a $50 gift card in which I entered and won.  As a college student I'm tight on money which means this was the perfect opportunity to get my first ever lace front wig.  It is safe to say that getting this wig was defiantly a good choice.  Now, on to the review!

Everyday Wigs website is easy to navigate.  At the top of the site there are a few drop down bars to help you find the wig you are looking for from color, length, and hair style.  With these features help narrow down what you're looking for without over whelming the customer with several choices.  Personally, I like this because if there are over 100 items per section I tend to not even look at all the products.  Like I said this is just my personal opinion when it comes to wig shopping.

The wig I ended up choosing was a grey ombre shoulder length wig.  I wasn't able to find the exact wig I purchased but I found one similar which you can find here.  I've been wanting to get my hands on a silver wig because when I first started college, I wanted to dye my hair either a wine red or a silver/grey color.  So this was the perfect opportunity for me to get my first lace front and a nice silver wig!

To be honest I don't quite remember how long it took for the wig to arrive once it was purchased.  Upon arrival the wig came in a plastic envelope to protect the package itself.  Opening it it came in a cute box which then contained a wig brush, the wig itself, my receipt, a wig cap, and wig care instruction.  The wig was in plastic zip lock type bag and wrapped in a hairnet.

Taking the wig out of it's wrapping, I was incredibly pleased.  The wig felt so soft and was true to color.  There was a generous amount of lace on the front of the wig.  After trimming it close to the line hair, I tried it on.  To be honest, I was a bit on edge because of the some what blunt hair line.  Upon this I turned to YouTube and Instagram to look at some of my favorite people and their lace front wigs.  It seemed like this was more on the normal side unless you get a wig that specifically have baby hairs in it.  Like any other wig there are adjustable straps in the back of the wig to help shape it to fit your head.  There are also tooth combs in the wig to add further security to the fit of the wig.

The following day going to university I decided to wear the wig.  I noticed how "flappy" the lace parts were and remembered that some people used eyelash glue to keep the lace bit down.  There are better ways to go about this but lash glue was what I had on hand.  I glued where my widow's peak was, each side of the lace that is near the ears, and a bit in between each bit of glue.  This sounds like I used a lot but in reality I didn't.  I used little dots that I spread out thin for more coverage that isn't a mess.  Waiting until it was tacky I pressed firmly on the lace for it to secure where it was placed.  For those wondering how I get the glue out of my own baby hairs I use a makeup remover wipe.  I gently wipe the hairs and slowly start to pull the glue off.  Just like that, easy peasy!  The same removal happens to the glue that is on my wig to get it off.

I know it looks gross but I left the glue on to show where I glue my wig when I am wearing it.
Wearing the wig out and about in public I didn't feel self conscious at all.  I pinned the front bits back so they wouldn't keep getting in my eyes which was the only problematic thing.  In class, I had my friends feel the wig and asked them if they thought it was my hair or an actual wig.  The only way they knew it was a wig was because this wig is thicker than my actual hair.  While walking around campus I got several compliments on my "dye" job.  It would appear that they didn't suspect anything at all.  If this doesn't convince you it looks like your actual hair, I don't know what will!

Overall,  I recommend this wig.  It is incredibly soft with a lovely color.  I personally think that it is a good wig for newbies to lace front wigs.  If I was able to not do a horrendous job in cutting the lace and taking care of the wig anyone can.  The wig is easy to care for and is overall wonderful.  It looks and feels natural and isn't scratchy.  If you want to take a look at EveryDay Wigs selection of wigs click here to take a look!

Survive until next time my fellow internet bloggers.
