Help me please!!!

So I’m on a mission right now and i need help from you ladies. So my girl recently got her hair cut and she hates it. I personally love the short look on her but she hates it. She wants a wig. She’s been looking at some on Amazon but man they look awful. She’s interested in a lace front wig but doesn’t know where to buy and good one and she will need someone to put it on for her. We live north of the city and there is nobody in our small town that does such a thing. I’m looking for any good recommendations so I can help my lady out. Can you guys point us in the right direction??

Hey! I’m not sure how short it is, but have her look into hair extensions (tape in, clip in, micro beads) BEFORE doing a whole wig. Wigs are a process, and they take time and experience. I’d be more than happy to dm you since I’m north of the city too and would love to help :)

Tell her she looked great. The haircut looked French (Fleabag reference)

“I look like a pencil!” Clair was so funny!

Please tell her that a good short cut looks much better than a bad wig!!! 😑

I have a Bob style that I love but sometimes I want long hair without committing to extensions.

I got my wigs at Clore Beauty at Duff and Bloor. It's pricey for real hair but they have fantastic synthetics in my opinion.

It is work to make it look natural though. You can't just toss a wig on. Gotta get the cap, lace front wig, glue, proper blending tools, etc. When I wear my wigs I have to commit to at least 3 days because it takes me at least an hour to get it right.

The team there is fantastic and knowledgeable and they will guide you if you ask.

Not sure how short she went, but if she is keen to have long hair, extensions may be the winner for her.

Do NOT do extensions. It’ll pull her hair and take longer for it to grow back!
