Freetress Equal Whole Lace Wig "Sapphire "

Long time, no see.  I know.  I've been busy with life and what not.  I should actually be studying right now but I'm here writing a wig review for you beautiful people.  So, I wanted to give my hair a break from all the styling I've been doing.  I haven't protective styles since my faux locs back in July.  I decided to get a wig so I could still get to my hair for weekly washes and moisturizing.  It's just way easier to do with a wig rather than a sew-in. 

After perusing the interwebs and looking at reviews  I decided on the Freetress Equal whole lace wig "Sapphire". I ordered the unit from www. HairWigHarlem.com. She (Sapphire that is)  is a whole lace wig meaning the entire cap is  a breathable lace like material, and still has the traditional lace frontal material in the front to blend with the hair line. She has baby hair around the perimeter (it doesn't look super natural but it doesn't look super fake either).  It's good enough to fool the untrained eye. When I received Sapphire and took her out of the box she was super soft and bouncy. The hair had a medium luster. It wasn't too much shine, but I still added baby powder to dull it a tad bit more.  I also cut and thinned her out some.  It's a very, VERY full wig and was just too much for my little self to pull off so I had to cut her down to size in a sense.  I also flat ironed her to get some of the deep waves out because it looked really weird.

The hair is synthetic made of Futura hair which can stand up to 400 degrees.....supposedly.  I only used 300-340 and some times styling a piece worked and others it didn't.  When I used 340 it all went limp and lifeless and wouldn't really take a curl after that. So,  I would recommend staying closer to 300 degrees.  I'm not used to synthetic hair I usually get remy or virgin hair. This wig cost me a little over $60 (it was on sale)  and has lasted me about a month.  I didn't expect much and I didn't get much.  It was a nice wig while it lasted, but now the ends are beginning to get tangled and matted. I am  wearing her in a low bun now until the Virgin Brazilian Curly hair I ordered from www.Hairaddictsonline.com comes in.  I'll be back with an initial review for that as soon as I can.
Final thoughts Sapphire... She is a great looking wig straight out if the box.  She needs a bit of styling to make her look natural, but not too much.  She didn't last as long as I hope, but it was a great run while it lasted.  If push came to shove, I would purchase her again.

The ends got super matted and gross

EDIT: After I made this post I ended up making this wig last about 2 months longer. How you ask? I CUT IT. First in to a bomb ass bob and once that started to get mated I made her into a bomb ass pixie cut wig. The wig always had body so no styling after the cuts were required 

After cut #1 into a bob

Cut #2 made her a pixie
