Orders for this week (updated)

So i know i posted i was going to get  three different dresses but i changed my mind and got a new purse, a pair of white skinny jeans and a dress. All totaling $41.87. The skinny jeans will probably arrive at the end of this week since the seller is in the U.S. The other things are coming from China so they will be here by the 14th of next month which is when i will be going home.

Putting in a new order this week(updated)

Black Body Con skirt $6.99 each.

Dress $9.99 originally $19.99

Wig Spray $1.99 w/ $4.40 shipping

I probably won't get them till mid December since they are coming from China but oh well i am willing to wait.

Update: I had to make some changes and order different things because right before i was about to check out i found out some items i put in my cart were out of stock because someone beat me to it. Oh well.....

New Ebay Purchases

I ordered three beanie hats each 4.99 with free shipping and a yellow eye shadow. I am assuming this is a MAC knockoff but oh well i saw this eyeshadow during a make up tutorial and i just had to have it knock off or not. I really don't care about the brand, i just want a bright yellow eyeshadow. The seller of the beanie hats is topzone999 and for the eyeshadow is visa2012. All my packages should be at my home next week when i go home for thanksgiving break :-)

I knew i said i wasn't going to purchase another wig

But i will next week! I know i said i was going to get the jealousy lace wig but i have changed my mind because i saw a real honest review on how awful it was. Well just a few minutes ago i was browsing hairsisters and came across this Freetress wig called Dream Girl. I tried to find reviews on youtube and just in general and i got nothing so i guess i will be the first and be the guinea pig. What i like about this wig is that it is futura so it shouldn't be so bad if i don't make it an everyday wig. I am hoping it has a skin part at the top but it should. I will probably experiment with color and get it in a 1B/30.....maybe.

Freetress scarlett Straightened/worn as a half wig

By now you all know what scarlett looks like in it's original state. Loose curls yadaah yadaah yadaah. Well it looked horrible in its natural state so i straightened the wig and i am now wearing it as a half wig instead of a lacefront. Overall i will say i will not repurchase this wig. It sheds/tangles a lot in its natural state. The wig construction is terrible...you can see tracks at the top. Not enough parting space. The only good thing about it is that it is futura which means it can be straightened and stuff. The shedding and tangling seems to have minimized after i straightened it. It is pretty long, like mid back length. I actually trimmed it down. Hair down to my butt is not realistic on me.

Planning a new video for youtube

I just took a break from studying for a biology test which is coming up on Thursday to make a script for a new youtube video i am  going to make in a couple of weeks. I know youtube is probably over-saturated with tips on how to manage your wigs but i want to make a video with my own tips. I am now writing out some tips in my notebook, most of my youtube videos are not planned so i tend to look confused and my thoughts are so unorganized so i am actually planning out what i am going to say.

The new video will be coming in two weeks when i go home for thanksgiving break.

Wig maintenance day/other wig updates

So i came home this weekend because i haven't been home since fall break which was about 3-4 weeks away. I was itching to come home because i wanted to get my other wigs and bring it back with me. Well first off, remember Scarlett?

Well you guys won't be getting a review on her really....well at least not in her natural state. I couldn't figure out how to make her look good so since it is a futura wig meaning it is a synthetic wig that can handle some heat i straightened her and i am now going to wear her as a half wig instead of a lacefront. Lacefront wise it looks ugly and fake because the part is only like a inch.....it just looks strange. I pride myself on making my wigs look realistic to the human eye so i can't be walking around with an obvious looking wig. Anyways, I have been looking for a straight-ish half wig for a while and i guess i just made myself one now lol.

Anyways i gave HZ7065 a wash today because she was starting to lose her bounce. I also trimmed up that wig i got from wigfever months back which was a disaster and gave her a wash as well.

The number of wigs i own now stands at 8. I will be purchasing Jealousy next week. She is futura as well so if she doesn't work out i will turn her straight lol I think hz 7065 is futura as well. Not sure, on hairsisters it says so. If she goes bad she is turning straight too.

Why men love bitches

Picture Credit: http://journalism.indiana.edu/classwork/audiostorytelling1_2011/why-men-love-bitches/

So i was reading one of my favorite message boards and the recommendation of the book “Why men love bitches.” came up. I looked up the book on amazon and luckily the first chapter of the book was put up for free. I read it and felt sad when the first chapter was over.

I really need to purchase this book because i feel like i am too nice when it comes to this dating thing. I have noticed that a lot of times, us women are always overcompensating for men just to get them to make it official. I see girls going out of their way to cook meals, have sex, do laundry and showcase our domestic, “wifey” skills for men who haven’t even made it official with them. For why? to show them that we can cook, clean and whatnot so if they see us doing this stuff for them they will be ready to get on one knee and propose.

The purpose of this book is not to tell women to be bitches as in be a cold, hard to deal with women. It is telling us to be assertive, not overcompensate and not come off as desperate when dealing with men. I see it all the time, a guy loses interest in a woman and she wonders why since she supposedly did everything right. Guys do not go out of their way to overcompensate so why do we?

I have noticed on the dating websites i have guys who live more than half an hour away messaging me and then they decide i am not worth driving such a distance to see. You see, they won’t go out their way to do such nice things for a random ass girl so why do we women go out of our way to please them? If it is anything we should be giving these guys a mental challenge and have them do most of the work.

In the end it should be us women who should be making the final/ultimate decision on whether we want to be with these guys or not. None of this,”where is this relationship going?” business. If it is anything we should be hearing that sentence from men. Men always claim they want a nice gal’ who will cook for them, not a bitch etc  etc….but that doesn’t mean we should be giving them all these things when they have yet to make the commitment. It all makes sense to me now.

This is why i do not listen to these dumb articles that claim that women should pursue men and go out of their way to do so. Yeah, that works out so well. Not! I will be purchasing this book and will be reading it over winter break.

Face treatment on a Friday night

With Queen Helen's Mint Julepe Mask. I love this product. It keeps my skin looking clear and fresh=] Yes no wigs today, not going outside. It is way too cold and windy to be outside.

My face today.

At the end of the day:

Sensationnel 7065 half wig

How do i feel about this wig? I am neutral right now. I think i may have finger combed it out a bit too much. Out the pack it is pretty thin and fake looking so you do have to finger comb it out a bit. I do love big hair so i can get used to it. I prefer Gala but i can't wear Gala everyday. Blending was a bit of a problem, i know you all can't see it but i think it would be a match for someone with natural hair. I should have brought my crimper up with me for blending purposes but right now i will settle for a braid out in the front. 

It will be my everyday hair pretty much. With the specifics, this is the second Sensationnel half wig i own. It has a comb in the front and back plus adjustable straps. It fits pretty well, i can't imagine it falling off even on the windiest days. FYI i wore outre's Amber and Naomi on windy winter mornings and i have never had them fall off so this should be fine. This wig does require some big ol' earrings to make it look even more fab =]

i will be making a video when i find a proper way to blend.

Video Review on Gala

Freetress Gala

                               

Loving it so far, i brushed out the curls when i took it out. No combs but it fits well and i secured it with bobby pins for extra security. Has a skin part at the top, i was afraid it was going to look fake but i love it. Very Kim K! Haven't noticed much shedding but this is the first day so we shall see!

Package here plus other purchases.

After getting frustrated of waiting i just decided to go to the mall and get my eyebrows done plus while i was there i got some Chinese food and stopped by Sephora and bought a skin primer. I have combination skin and i need it to be under control while under foundation.

Boscia Skin perfecting primer $25 (Haven't used it yet but i will revisit this product and review later on)

Anyways here is the package, it came with two jolly ranchers. two 10% coupons for it being my first order and a sample of this Roots of Nature mango oil and sweet almond oil Thermal smoothing serum. Oh and i ordered this package off divatress.com. I highly recommend divatress.com, they don't have as much of a selection as hairsisters but it is so much better. They have cheaper prices plus very fast shipping. Within an hour of ordering it was marked shipped and i received my package 2 days later. It probably came super fast because i am in Pennsylvania and the company is based in Illinois which is about 3 states away.

Waiting on UPS

to bring my package. They are seriously taking a long time to deliver this package. After they come i am going to head to the mall to get my eyebrows thread plus get some Chinese food.
