As soon as upon a time (like circa early 2000s), there was little extra that I needed than hair like this.
This type is ever-so-slightly completely different than what I had envisioned, however the size is *precisely* what I used to be searching for.
Sadly, with super-fine bio hair that has no pure form, reaching a mode like this was actually a pipe dream.
I attempted, many instances, to get hair like this, again within the day.
You’d suppose in case your bio hair was fairly crappy, that having a shorter type could be simpler to work with.
I’ve at all times discovered the alternative to be true, so I’ve had longer locks for the previous 15+ years.
I don’t do a lot with my hair. Particularly my bio hair.
The truth is, proper now, I’m donning a new Softie type within the sample “Shifts” from Jon Renau to cowl up my scalp, whereas I sort. That is about as trendy as I get, usually throwing one in all these on when lounging round the home at evening or opting to put on my topper up for day-to-day.
Guess who braided my hair on this pic? The hubs. 🙂
After I noticed that the new Alison wig type from Jon Renau was out there in my customary 10H16 coloration, I assumed she’d be a enjoyable one to strive. A bit outdoors the field for me.
The truth is, right here she is:
Word: All pics on this submit function Alison proper out of the field – no tweaking or customizations in any respect.
Jon Renau Alison’s Options
Alison is a part of the SmartLace assortment, so she’s a lace-front type that enables for additional carry on the hairline…plus, you’ll be able to put on your hair off your face. Right here’s what the hairline appears like from an arm’s size away (as should you have been a traditional distance from one other individual. If anybody will get nearer to you than this, inform them to again the heck up. Private area, ).
And right here it’s up shut:
The cap is a monofilament cap, which suggests you’ll be able to see via the meshy materials on the cap of the wig right down to your individual scalp. You may at all times half your hair whichever means you’d like (though I half my hair on the correct, this one got here parted on the left).
She’s waaaay shorter than what I normally put on. This wig caps out at just below 11”.
Right here’s the factor about me and shorter hair.
First, I are likely to solely like shorter hair *on me* after I put on clothes necklines which are extra closed in. I used to be carrying a V-neck tee shirt however threw on a fall/winter vest to assist shut me all in. For some motive, I believe that appears higher.
I do know I’m nuts.
Secondly, let’s simply be sincere. I’ve gained about 25 kilos since I began this weblog (oddly, I used to be WAY thinner after having each children which is ironic, however alas, right here we’re) and you’ll undoubtedly inform in my face. Shorter types appear to intensify this, and draw extra consideration to my now-larger face.
Clearly, I’m not a fan of this.
You may’t inform as a lot when my hair isn’t tucked behind my ear (scroll down a bit to see that pic).
However when my face is front-and-center…I really feel like it’s INDEED, Entrance. And. Heart.
Simply being actual, y’all. I do know I’m my very own worst critic.
Alright, shifting on.
The Alison bob wig does have a pretty form to it. Try this piece from each side:
Such a fairly, (barely) angled form, with out wanting massively stacked (which is very out-of-date).
That type of form was precisely what I used to be searching for after I wore my bio hair shorter…however I used to be by no means capable of make it work. Limp, lifeless hair simply doesn’t appear to work with a lot, does it?
How cute is that this type??
Sometime, after I get my Dairy Queen Blizzard obsession below management, I’m completely fascinated by carrying some shorter types. Till then, this one will likely be enjoyable on the weekends throughout turtleneck season. 😊
Is anybody on the market like me, who shies away from shorter types for concern they draw consideration to chipmunk cheeks?
Yet another shot of Alison:
P.S. If you happen to haven’t but tried Dairy Queen’s Snickers Peanut Butter Pie Blizzard, you aren’t dwelling.
