An Experiment

A reader of my blog bought a new wig, decided it wasn't for her, and graciously sent it to me as an unexpected gift.  Thank you, Trisha.

I thought I'd play with the wig to see how it works with my face.  I've never had long hair, let alone curly hair, so I don't know what to expect.  I'm studying these pictures as closely as you are to discover if this hair-style suits me and is something I can pull off.  Normally, I wouldn't expect to be able to, but who knows... no harm in trying.

What do you think?

  2. I really like the longer length and the curls. It's tremendously flattering.

  3. Wow, it changes your look up a lot, Ally! I am one who takes a long time to get used to changes in appearance (especially my own) but I think I like it. It's a youthful look.

    Also I have no idea how you did eyeliner with a monolid, but all of my friends will want to learn from you. It's a great job and it really brings out the gorgeous color of your eyes.

  9. I think it's great! The colour suits you and the length is really flattering. It looks youthful in a good way and it seems to make you feel good too. Yay for the new wig!

  10. This suits you! Are there golden strands in the wig? It kind of looks like highlights, very pretty!

  11. Yup- it's soft and femme and looks FANTASTIC on you. I'm also adoring that bright pink lippy.

  13. I prefer this to your usual bob. It's so much more lively and youthful.

  14. Its difficult to say... this one does make you look very different, maybe slightly older... I think I like the other ones better, but then I also think that its gret to change around from time to time :)
    Thanks for your last comment, they always make me really happy :)

  15. I love it! Looks fabulous on you.

  16. I actually really like this and think it actually serves to make you look younger, not older. Maybe because I associate this hairstyle with a younger look? Either way, I think it looks great!

  17. I agree with Gracey, it makes you look younger due to the style, length and color. The color is really nice for your skin tone as well and you have paired it with beautiful colors!! 10/10 score for you my friend :)

  20. Wow, I really it!! And somehow, it brings out your eye color more (or maybe you are doing new eye makeup?)

    1. Both the gold highlights in the wig and bronze eye-shadow draw attention to my eye-color (greenish-brown). You can't see the eye-shadow too clearly but it creates a tone that works for me.

  21. It really suits you!
    Love the lipstick, too!

  22. Ahhhh! I love it too! I agree that it is a fantastic look on you and my first thought was that you do look younger. I absolutely love what you've done with your makeup too...especially eyes. Wow!
    I need this experiment performed on me...with the same results, please. :)

  23. I think it actually turned out better than the previous ones. And with longer hair you can start practicing some different hairstyles!! I'd go crazy! (try this). I would love to see you! Hugs :)

  24. This is amazing and I like it better than your other wigs. Curly hair is beautiful and I think it suits you so well.

  25. i like it--but i'm partial to long hair ;)

  26. really good!
    the more - longer, volume - hair looks younger and more feminine on you.
    gorgeous!

    tip: next time try a little blusher at the forehead right under the hairline and under your chin ;-)

  27. LOVE the youthful look of this. The brunette with highlights really compliments your skin tone. Long flowing waves are universally flattering. I say it's a definite win!

  28. LOVE it on you! The coloring works well with your complexion, and the length is great with your face shape. Beautiful!

  31. I LOVE this hair colour on you, Ally! It's just wonderful.

  32. What I noticed first is how well the hair color compliments your eyes here! I think the waves and the length are playful/fun, just like you. Good fit.

  33. I love it! It's very you... and as you mentioned on Twitter, it makes you look as young as you feel.

  34. I absolutely love it! Like the others have said, it really brings out the green in your eyes!

  35. It looks so good on you! You should definitely wear it more often :) Usually wigs don't look very natural, but this one sure does.

  36. I love it! I think it looks great on you. The color and shape definitely suit you! I think it's a keeper. (Also it makes me want to grow my hair out! or at least find a wig)

    1. Wigs aren't just for boys!

      You should play with one. And imagine the shocked reaction your friends and family will have when you show up with long, curly hair!!

  37. I love it! I've always wanted to have curly hair - wigs seem like a great way to try it out. One of the teachers at my school will wear different wigs just for the heck of it. It keeps her students on their toes.
