But curls are beautiful and I am proud of my heritage, I just wish people would understand some things.

      In India, most married women part their hair in the middle. It actually looks pretty decent, depending on how it's styled. Then again, yes, most married Indian women also wear sindoor (that red powder thingie that signifies they are married) so the parting doesn't look as blunt. So.. You could be right.

  • @treylewis2831
    @treylewis2831 Před 5 lety +2268

    You can make it ook even more natural by soaking it in fabric softener overnight then rinsing it with cold water, it will make it softer and take away some of the shiny plastic look to it. Makes it smell really good too. You can also rub a little bit of either talc or flour through the wig then shake out the excess to make it look less shiny. This is what a lot a cosplayers do when they can't afford super fancy wigs but still want them to look as realistic as possible.

    For brushing wigs I recommend using wide tooth combs because brushing wigs with normal brushes **sometimes** ruins the wig but the wide teeth comb well it just goes with it ok 👍🏽 and it helps de-tangling tangled wigs (I’m Not good at explaining things-) and usually you would have to seperate (like when you braid hair you seperate hair) and then brush the wigs from the bottom then eventually go to the top.

      When people say the natural look, they usually mean the natural look people are born with. Unaltered.
      Like with the natural make up look, people try to apply minimal amount of make up, trying not to change their original appearance too much.
      You're just taking her comment too seriously. It was a damn light hearted joke that flew over your head :)
