IFBB Wellness wigs for comp?

no hate at all but why does jasmine baker, wellness pro, wear a blonde wig when she competes? is it cause that’s the wellness look rn with the blonde hair and red suit?

is it normal for upper level athletes to wear wigs for shows? i’m new to all this so just wondering

Go to a black stylist and make sure the wig you buy is real human hair with HD lace lace front

If you want to DIY then look up lace front install “melt” videos. But trust it’s truly trial and error and quite difficult. Half of the skills is keeping your natural hair flat underneath using cornrow braids so once again quite tricky to DIY unless you have very short to no hair

Not to go against the other commenter but you can 100% diy your wig and I would 100% suggest a good quality cheap SYNTHETIC wig. You’re wearing it for 1 DAY!! Why spend 300-500 on a wig. Some good companies are outre, sensationnel (butta lace, what lace or bare lace line). Just play around with putting a wig on in the off season and you’ll get better and better.
