This look is giving locs and I’m feeling it, omg you would look amazing with locs!!!
Love the Glam family, how's everyone, I know the girls are big now, how are things? How's your Mom? Give your wife love& thanks
It's the low maintenance for me. Trust and believe, if I had $1K to spend on the best wigs and someone to professionally install them, I'd wig out often too!
I feel you! Lol
@@GetGlamFam LOL!!!
Even the wigs for us regular folks have come a looooooong way from my granny’s wigs back in the day. The wigs now don’t look so artificial like in the 70s and 80s and more people know how to do natural looking installs and how to care for their wigs than did back then.
There's no way I would spend 1000 dollars on a wig.
Personally when I see celebrities like Zendaya having heat damage I feel I would spend that 1k to the best natural hair stylists like Issa Rae or Lupita did. They got the best styles in the game with little damage.
From my perspective wigs and weaves are a form of artistic expression it gives you an opportunity to try new hairstyles and colors. Plus it saves you tons of time, energy and money. Soft wavy locks makes me feel like a beautiful princess.
It’s definitely a great way to be able to express yourself with little to no damage to the hair 😊
I have several different styles of wigs. I love to change my hair and styles. Ways I can't get my real hair to go. In the summer, I like my short blunt styles, and that's when I bring out my natural hair and get it cut.😊
I think it must be said that many black women feel this way: “loose waves make me feel like a princess.” The fact that people don’t recognize the colonialism and Eurocentricity in that comment is part of why the black community is progressing back to a state of self love much, much, slower than it could be 😢
Ironically, I feel like a princess when I pick out my Afro, I literally admire that my shrinkage protects my strands naturally, it’s a reflection of the strongest yet most feminine matriarchs in my family, and our beautiful black hair is something very unique and regal about us that’s still not getting the appreciation it deserves.
😂😂😂
@@MiVidaBellisima Thank you! I agree with everything you wrote 👍🏽.
As a Stylist this makes perfect sense, but you explained it so well for the rest of your audience!! Hair units can be protective, valuable and versatile when applied correctly!!! You are a true Instructor, always dropping gems!!!🧡
Thanks so very much! I truly appreciate you fam!
This is very insightful , Kerry Washington also mentioned that when she started her natural hair journey to teach her kids to embrace their natural beauty as well as their natural hair texture, she mentioned that she had to sometimes wear wigs going from shows to red carpet events back to back--she mentioned that she would wear wigs that are similar to her hair texture, because she still wanted to keep her natural appearance, but protect her natural hair also from heat damage not just from styling but from stage lights and cameras, she said “ people don’t realize when you’re on stage under billions of lights it can get really hot under there. But when I’m off camera I wear my natural curls freely and my kids love it!” I love that woman! Lol ❤
I wear wigs now after damaging my hair with too much heat and poor diet. I can’t afford real hair but there are synthetic wigs out there that are affordable and still look real! Thanks for the video.
Beyonce was smart by weaving up her own hair.
Absolutely
And she has the most natural looking weaves I've ever seen. Have u seen her performances? Wind blowing and sweat and still looks completely natural
Her mother is a hairdresser and was doing her styles. That is a bonus. Not sure if she still does it.
She used to wear braids a lot before that too.
You look amazing, as always. I hope you are okay psychologically, and I hope you are dating and having fun!
No one looks twice if you're wearing a hat, a wig is just a hairy hat. They've been worn since the dawn of time and, as long as you make sure it's as well maintained as your real hair, and the style/ colour, suits you, there should never be a problem when you put one on.
Hi Linwood, On the wearing of wigs and not taking care of our hair can be a horrifying experience. My friend has worn wigs and extensions so long until her real hair has bald spots and edge damage. It is now where she doesn’t know what to do, I feel so sorry for her. By the way, I love your hairstyle on this video.
As somebody who constantly loves different colors and cuts, I’m not finna keep frying my natural hair to achieve a new color every month. I’d rather just wear wigs or sew ins or extensions
Took me 10 yrs to learn this but I finally did. Wanna go red. Wig it! Wanna go blonde. Wig it (or extensions).
Eons ago when I did runway I allowed the stylists to do whatever they wanted to my own hair. In two years my hair was gone and she was not coming back. For a casting I was required to have long straight hair and the weaving game was on. I did weaves, extensions, wigs, clip-ins, pieces whatever the clients wanted and very seldom over 15 years, wore my own hair. To the point that when I stopped few people knew the difference but by then I had a healthy head of hair! I still have my "girls" but I wear them more for weather issues or emergencies!
This makes sense because there’s a lot of give and take, a lot of conformity involved. A lot of women blame wearing wigs on convenience but more often just don’t have appreciation for black hair textures. This is proven by the selected styles and exclusion of others time and time again.
@@MiVidaBellisima, Everyone wears wigs for their own reasons. Assuming why people choose certain textures over others is silly. I own wigs with all types of textures and curl patterns, except bone straight/ silky. Constant manipulation, coloring, detangling, and adding tension to your natural hair will damage it. Black hair grows better when it's well moisturized and left alone.
Every black model has said this going way back. I always wonder who Naomi Campbell has as her personal stylist because it looks like traction alopecia.
I would do like Brandi always did in the 90's and get it braided.
It is too hot where I live to be wearing a wig like that.
I had a church member literally take her wig off in church, in the middle of service because it was too hot😂
The struggle is real.
Lol! I live in the south so I’ve definitely seen that on more than one occasion 😂😂
I tried wearing wigs when I was living on the Gulf Coast. Walking around outside in July and August will make a wig unappealing really quickly.
I love the crochet unit because it is a lighter feel to the head and it doesn't feel heavy. To me it's the best of both worlds between a braid and a weave.
Brandy’s braids were braided wigs
I had a friend who waa a backup singer, and she explained to me that the lights can be hard on natural hair. She said that the wigs can keep curl, don't frizz etc. When performing under those harsh hot lights.
I wear wigs exactly for that reason. I love changing up colors, styles and textures without putting my natural hair thru hell
Wigs and hair is a fashion statement for me since I was born. I used to sit there and have my mom braid my hair and put barrettes in different bows in my hair when I was little and couldn't wait to look in the mirror when she was done
I’ve got 5 frizzy grey hairs on my head from years of torture. I have always been a fan of wigs and I change my hair all the time. Everyday wigs are looking more and more realistic. Also there isn’t such a stigma about wearing them like there used to be ❤️
Not the Golden Girls🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thanks I love to have different hairstyles ❤
Lol literally one of my all time fave shows!
I really hope people just stop being so concerned about what people do or don't do with their hair-- wigged, natural, weaved, colored, or chemically treated. I wish I still had hair to have all these choices, but Lupus took my hair and for over a decade now I've been forced to wear wigs. What I'm really happy to see is the rise of natural afro textured wigs in the last couple of years. Before I lost my hair, I wore my hair in afros or twists, and it was a struggle at first to find good wigs that mimic those styles in my kinky/coily texture. As more people demand wigs, the more styles and textures we get. I'm here for it.
Don't exaggerate. No one really cares.
Dolly parton always wore wigs 👍👍👍🌹
Reba did too for the longest!
Great video!! I love the explanation - it's also a beauty standard we've come to expect from celebrities without realizing our expectations of these people have made wearing wigs/weaves almost necessary. Wouldn't mind the celebrity money, but I would probably find it exhausting to keep up with a perfect look every time I stepped out of my house (famous role or not) - no wonder celebs live in gated communities or overseas to avoid the judging paparazzi!
I can’t even imagine dealing with the paparazzi like that! It has to be beyond exhausting, especially when you just want to enjoy your day like a normal person would.
You're right. I have notice the celebrities over the years grabbing for the
"front" lines.
I have always looked at wigs, weaves, braids, etc as ways to change my look while protecting my natural hair and giving it a rest. Even as a teen, I experimented with different colors, textures and lengths.
Your skin is glowing Lin!!!!!
Aww thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
I understand 100% why they do this. Heat broke my mid back tresses to chin length within two yrs. When I accepted the frizz I saw the most progress. I even got longer hair than before. I've never been fond of weaves so I had to accept some frizzy days.
Yes! I love frizz! Accepting frizz leads to a lot less over manipulation of the hair.
I embrace the frizz & go on about my business! 😂😂😂
Very interesting! I have locs, so I’m always watching Chlöe and Halle. I think they add hair and wrap their locs for that same versatility.
I love my wigs , so breezing & easy
They definitely are an easy style option!
I've been wanting to use wigs as part of a protective regimen. Just like head band wigs for the weekend
I feel you! They can be great when done correctly!
Hey Boo! You are loved ❤
Thanks so much fam! I appreciate you!
I have locs so don't have to deal with heat damage, But when I did wear wigs, weaves etc, It cost me me time, money and energy. like you said if its done properly you are good.
I tell my family if Linwood tells you no, then honey, it ain’t it!
Lol thanks so much for that fam!
thank you so much for adding subs, makes your videos easier to follow for us who have auditory problems ❤❤
You are a wealth of knowledge and articulate the information with a delivery that’s so very professional and simple. I look forward to your videos and the smiles you give us! God bless your business, channel and family
Yes, I've heard that about celebs and hair protection with wigs and hair pieces since for years
Absolutely! Especially when they are on yours or doing movies
Love how informative your videos are! Thank you
Such a pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!!
Thank you for posting this …as a professional also I have tried to educate my clients and answer people who I’ve met who aren’t clients… their questions about celebrities and how they change their hair color to the latest trends… they usually look at me and roll their eyes 🙄 as I’ve told them the very same thing you have said …. Now I can suggest your video …thank you
Thanks for leaving me with another angle on that subject. Good day!!!
When they said “picture it, 1922?!” I lost it!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😊
Yes, wigs are my go to, especially when I need to find a hair stylist replacement!!!! 😢😩😩😩😩
I wear wigs often as self art because I am an artist. I am wearing a wig in the thumbnail. I love my natural hair and everything about it; however, I am about 25% grey and most of it is in the front, in Bride of Frankenstein style 😂. If I don’t wear a bright lipstick color with that then I feel I look washed out in the face.
Wow guy is this a recent video? You look great! I know you've gone through a lot of stress in the last few years and it was starting to show! But now you look refreshed, younger and lively again. Glad to see your perking up. Love your content. You give great advice and make me laugh. I'm old and pretty much do nothing with my hair but wash and put up.
Wish there was hair advice like yours when I was young.
Linwood just wanted to thank you. I followed your instructions and restored my old wig. It looks great. It looks like a new wig.❤
Such a pleasure! I’m so glad the video helped!!
I have been wearing wigs for years. I refer to them as my "hair hats".
Thank you. This was definitely for me.
Even Sheryl Crow talked about back up singing for Michael Jackson back in the day. Said that they styled they hair into baldness when she was on tour. Said she was lucky to get away with a few strands left. A LOT of the older stars been wigging it for decades. The younger and middle aged are just getting hip to it the last 20 or so years.
Yep, that’s true. And furthermore, the opera singers also wear front lace wigs during performances/productions.
Such a great video! Thank you for sharing this message. I didn't realize that non-Black women who are celebrities are wearing wigs more and more now. This was very insightful!
non -black women have always worn wigs. That's where it came from the entertainment industry. White celebrities have worn them for theater, film, and the like. They are newer to the black "everyday" women, but the lace front wig was standard entertainment industry "secret".
Protect your hair! Wear wigs, weaves and extentions. Don't forget the clip-ins baby. ❤
Love the edit, great info and tips as always ❤
Thanks so very much! I appreciate you watching!
Excellent style tips, Bae ❤
Beautifully elaborated 👑
Thanks as always Linwood 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽ky
Why do the wigs look so fake? Years ago I couldn’t tell if someone was wearing a wig but now, I can spot it easily.
I honestly think it’s because so many people started doing the excessive baby hair to try and hide the lace
I agree. It begins to look like draperies hanging.
That's the part I hate about today's weaves/wigs. They look sooo weavey 🙁
@BrightBlue Actually, they don't. I've been wearing hair since my 20's. Units have come a very long way since then.
They now have lace fronts, which are the most realistic. Some ppl wear them incorrectly by putting them behind their hairline. They are designed to be worn on the hairline. Otherwise, they start looking like a hair headband.
Ppl also tend to put makeup on the part. They should wear a beige or tan wig grip instead.
Then they try to match up the parting space with the complexion of their face. That is a mistake also. Our scalps are way lighter than our faces bec it doesn't get exposed to the sun like our face does. So it's more about errors than bad-looking hair.
Because it's not the same texture
You are very gifted. You help the folks!😅❤
You’re exposing our secrets! 😂❤
We appreciate you so much!!😊
I love wigs so I can switch up looks without damaging my hair.
Linwood, I swear, you are the best! I wish you were my son. I would have your number as number 1, speed dial haha. You are such a wonderful teacher and I love love love the little under tone funny remarks. Fun to watch and still learn more. Good bless you young man. You are helping many of us ignorant people out there.
Look at youuuu😁❤. I love the hair and I get those little thingies from time to time too. The unalive will hold on for dear life and I love it 😅.
It's about that *protection.*
Very much so!
I’ve learned to lean into wigs for special occasions and weekends. And it works great! I work out daily - sweaty and vigorous so I want to wash my hair regularly then twist. I hate a lot at the salon Friday to sweat it out Monday 🥵🙄
Yes for the wigs! I like your hair it nice - are you locing it?
Thanks so much! No, they are just twists. I love locs, but my hair would take too long to loc and I don’t have the patience
I am 55 menopause grey female my hair is relaxed and suffering breakage and loss. I would love to do a wig but all the gluing I see ladies doing is scary. You are always so informative. Have you styled celebrities. SERIOUSLY you such a pro like to see you on TV giving advice❤
Love the do Lynden
Exactly why I wear them and its fun
Total thumbs up for shouting out to sophia
I've never worn a weave or a wig... I've seen some that make me wanna. I'm just sitting here listening to this advice and watching your curls dance as you talk.
Hi Linwood! Glad to see you back on YT. Have you returned to teaching?
Well said my fav-fav Hair Guru!
I wear my hair units, pieces and afro puffs to create the look I desire for the day/event. I am comfortable in my self-made in my head fashion show of life! 😂
As I stroll with Pretty Girl's Walk Like This playing in my head! Ayeeeeee!Ayeeeeee!😘 #letsgo #letsgetit
Hope you are having an amazing Spring and fabulous Easter 🐣 Weekend! #maddluv ❤ cause ain't nobody bad like you! 😏
Thanks for keeping us informed about wigs, extension, and hair care. 👍🏾❤🙏🏽
My absolute pleasure! Thanks for watching fam!
Hey, Linwood!! Quick question: any recommendations for ingrown hair on the scalp? Thanks for all you do!!!
You first want to have it looked at and make sure it’s ingrown hair and not folliculitis. But they make scalp exfoliates that you apply with a toothbrush like brush that can really help.
Thanks soo much for Sharing 🥰🥰🥰
The way I just threw rollers into this week old silk press to give it new life!
Thank you caz i do like to chang color often just saying❤❤
I always learn something from your videos 😁
Hell I was wearing wigs in high school. The versatility of a wig is like none other n I was doing it when a "good wig" was 75-125
I feel you! Thanks for watching!
Yesss!!!! Thank you! 🙌🏼🙌🏼💕💕💕💕💕
Such a pleasure! Thanks for watching!
I don’t think there is just one answer because some celebrities have said it is for protection and others say they don’t like their real hair. I am not a huge fan of wigs unless it is like for a party because I find them hot and uncomfortable. Plus my hair is long and dense so unless I get cornrows the wigs feel tight. I once had a beauty supply store refuse to let me try on a wig because they said I had too much hair.
Thank you
👍🤩Well said. Thank you. 💝
Me Singing To My Wig Piece:
🎙Thank you for being a friend,Traveled down a road and back again
Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant ....Thank you for being a friiiiiiiiieeeendd🎙🤭
Yassss!! 😂😂😂
@@GetGlamFam 🤭😂😂
So nice to see you ❤❤.
It’s good to be seen! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your explanation of why all races of women wear wigs. I have been wearing wigs for years. Intake good care of my natural hair. I wear it out when I am sick of a wig on my head. I keep it moisturized and oiled. Keep my ends trimmed.
I love your hair
Aww thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
I’m thrilled with wigs for the moment. Uh, I know not from Milan but that’s a monster do!
❤️❤️❤️Thanks for watching!
I am trying to get comfortable in having my hair out more often but even with low manipulation and just try to make it look presentable in a afro. It is very complicated. I have to slap on a wig because it takes less time and effort and I don't have to worry about looking less presentable other than just having my hair taken care of with cornrows and a wig cap.
It can be a process, sometimes it comes with retraining your thinking around it. I think a lot of us have been fed all sorts of things for what is considered “professional” for hair, and often it’s synonymous with “straight” 😩
If installed properly it’s a great prospective style ❤
do you have any opinions on PEGs, or petroleum in hair products? Also, I feel confident that you have a video on how to preserve a twist out on short 4c hair. I can never get more than a day and have to re-twist nightly :(.Can you please send the link if you have a video about it. Thanks! :D
I’m a novice wig-wearer and one of the main reasons why I started wearing wigs is because I got dog tired of buying oddles and oodles of hair products, and harming my hair with relaxers to keep my terrible frizz at bay. It just became TOO much. Wigs work for me, and I’m content with that.
I have a question...is it ok to use a cool hair dryer 2x a week? I want to keep my 4c hair stretched
I’m here saying wait are those locks🔥
The celebrities need you
Great info and you look too cute in braids!
Aww thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
What hair brushes do you use to brush out dry and wet human hair wigs to protect them?
I like your new hair-do.
Thanks so very much! Thanks for watching!
I understand
Thanks for watching!
In theatre wigs are easier to deal with. The hair crew can knock out the touch ups in between performances and the actors/dancers can get ready faster by not having to get hair ready too.
Exactly! They are made for convenience and can really cut down on production time
Yup, this is why I wear wigs to work. All of this!
That makes complete sense! I have been known in the distant past to lift my hair color by dying my hair red and blonde. Now, you know I knew better than that Linwood!
👍🏾 yep
Thank you for this. Natural hair isn't exactly easy to maintain and a silk press ain't forever. Side note: please, please show us how to style a blunt cut bob, chin to shoulder length? Hairvivi sent me a wig and my head too big for the lies lol
Personal, for me, I am tired of wigs. I'm getting locs soon.
