Hi! I'm Ashley, and I'm so glad that you're here.
After years of struggling with hair loss that continued to progress, a few bad wigs that never left the house, and internet searches that left me feeling hopeless, I took the plunge and jumped into the world of alternative hair full-time in 2020, and I haven't looked back. Now I want to share what I've learned in the last decade of my struggle with you, wherever you are in your journey with alopecia.
Join me here for content related to all-things hair loss, wigs, and hair toppers and to build a community of women sharing tips and tricks. Together, we can build a community that promotes inclusion, destigmatizes hair loss, and educates everyone. Together, let's celebrate life beyond the locks - because it's a good one. 💕

I have well played. I love the wig itself, however, it's the worst face flopper I've ever owned, no matter how much heat styling I do to it. Also, it is gigantic on my 22 inch circumference and the lace does NOT lay flat even with a wig grip. Plus a ton of extra cap material in the crown area. I keep trying to make this beautiful piece work for me, but it's definitely a challenge! I have the color biscuit unrooted, and it's very stripey at the part line due to the chunky highlights, and you can see almost no scalp effect. I wouldn't say I'd ever buy this wig again, but I continue to look for solutions, because it is absolutely beautiful and I do want it to work. Thank you for the review and it looks beautiful on you!
I'm so sorry that has been your experience. I do find that some RW pieces do fit a bit large - especially for me as I have a small head. Interestingly, this pieces as been okay for me - it doesn't fit tightly, but it's definitely wearable. Have you tried wig glue or wig tape? They can make such a difference.
Also - have you used head on the hairline to keep it back? I know that the straight chopping layers make it a bit more floppy than some.
I'm sorry if you've already tried all of these methods - I don't mean to be presumptuous - but I hope that these tips might help someone reading.
Thanks for taking the time to comment.
What is your favorite synthetic wig? Brand & style? How often do you wear them?
Sorry for the late reply. Honestly, I don't wear synthetics daily as of right now, so I can't say which one is my absolute go-to in terms of longevity, but I love Haute from Jon Renau, Peerless from Belle Tress, and Well Played by Raquel Welch. Hope this helps!
I have this wig and wore it out only once, she got very matted and slipped back on my head and I looked deranged 😢 I didn’t wear a headband underneath, need to play around with that. Idk about the fibers, they seem very stiff for not wearing it much. I loved it when I first tried it which is why I kept it, but I wouldn’t call this a beginner friendly wig.
Oh no! I'm sorry that this was your experience. As smaller headed gals, we definitely need wig grips for security. Longer wigs - especially synthetics - need combing through the day, so it's definitely something to contend with!
Thank you for the review! This color is not 8/22. It's 8/12. (Just for anyone who might have been confused)
Did I say 8/22 in the video? If so, thanks for catching it.
Hi, I appreciate the emphasis put on colour first, style 2nd. I haven't bought my first one yet. I see your hair loss pattern looks almost identical to mine. Just top and temples and everything else nice and thick. Do you use toppers too and which do you prefer? Love this one, very natural looking. I cut my hair very short, as a sort of transition and have kept a bit beside me as I watch videos. This is the closest match I've seen. My gray is so evenly distributed that it looks much like this 'shading' and I've got that auburn tone. Nice, thank you! The style, though...maybe shoulder length.
Thank you so much for your kind comments.
My hair is actually quite thin all around, so that does change what I look for in a topper - I like quite heavy coverage everywhere.
Are you looking for a synthetic topper, or a human hair topper?
So pretty! I have Well Played as well and absolutely love it! I have it in iced java which is another beautiful brown 😊
Iced Java is deeeeefinitely on my list to try! Do you have a video of yours?
@@lifebeyondlocks nothing fancy like yours HAHA but I do have a little clip of it that I had taken for my review on the retailers website. I just wish I knew how to do these videos like you 😂
@melissacarignan4930 you should post it! I just hit record and away I go. Definitely not professional, but I like the real and raw vids 😊
@@lifebeyondlocks I'll try to muster up the courage 😄I do really enjoy watching other people review and I never buy without watching a few different ones so might as well try to help others do the same right?
@@melissacarignan4930me too. I only buy if there's a good review 😊
What powder did you use for your part line?
Honestly- whatever I have handy! I use eye shadow or face powder, but, as of right now, I don't have a favourite.
