For 6 weeks, I wore this 360 Kinky Straight wig from 100humanwigs.com! I shared my first impressions of the hair in this post, and gosh am I excited to finally share my full review with you!

Here’s the thing. I had no expectations when I got this wig. When the guys at Sunwell reached out to me to try out one of their wigs, I thought “sure, why not?”. I went on the site and at first, I was a little skeptical because, the online experience is like shopping for hair on Ali Express. By this, I mean that you can’t really be sure if that’s a photo of the actual hair. For some reason, vendors prefer to show you photos of people rocking other hair that’s supposed to look like the aesthetic they are offering, so you can’t be 100% sure.

Specs

After doing a little thinking, I chose the kinky straight wig. Mostly because MeeMee really loved this wig in a similar texture that year. I ordered the 360 Kinky Straight Wig in Natural Black. The length chart was a little confusing, so I went with 18 or 20 inches. With this wig, you can choose from 3 options for density (that is, how full you would like the hair)- 130%, 150% and 180%. I went with 150%. For the cap, I chose the Large Cap in the darkest colour.

About 2,3 weeks later, the hair was delivered to me one fine morning, by DHL.

First, the Cons

I kind of regretted going with 150% density because the plan was to have this wig as close to natural as possible. The 150% is quite full, you guys! It’s big.

You are going to draw attention if you wear it down, wherever you go. Not that I mind the attention, at all- it’s just, it did get in the way when I was working! After 2 days of wearing it down at the office, I jejely gathered it into a low bun, and that’s really how I wore it to work the whole time! Boring? I know! 😛 The real reason I want my hair to grow is so I can easily throw it back into boring styles like low buns, so this was definitely a dream come true for me in some way, haha.

The wig has a 360 lace closure, meaning, you are meant to be able to wear it anyhow you want, in theory. Pack it up, part it left, right, etc, you can do and undo. Well, because I was dealing with more hair than I was used to and being more than happy to enjoy it in a bun, I’m going to be honest and say I didn’t try to style it 100 ways. I can confirm, though, that you can actually have fun with the parting as advertised. However, the lace could have been darker.

Also, the cap was a little small! My head is not small but I think there are many people with bigger heads. I was able to secure the wig using the straps at the back, but a slightly undersized cap would not have let me take full advantage of the 360 styling if I wanted to.

Now, let’s look at the Pros *Birdman hand rub*

Low Maintenance

My reservations about the cap and the lace aside, this wig is EXCELLENT, you guys!

In my First Impressions post here, I wrote about how soft it was, and it is still this soft! So soft, I started suspecting whether it was truly human hair because, it was soft throughout, and the only maintenance I did was comb the wig with a wide tooth comb once a week! No moisturiser, nothing. Just straight chilling! Also, it barely shed. Yeah, once a week, I thoroughly detangled, but the shedding was minimal.

Please note, though, that I didn’t wear the wig straight from the bag. I shampooed and conditioned it first. When I did this, the water turned slightly blueish, so I was happy to get rid of whatever chemicals were used to prepare the hair. Find time to do this everytime you get new hair extensions, before you wear them. MeeMee has a helpful video tutorial showing you how to prep hair extensions, here. Now that I’m done wearing the wig, I will repeat the process of washing and drying before I put it away.

Super duper natural look

The Natural Black color is actually perfect, and close to my (and many people’s) natural hair color. It is proper dark in some settings, but lighter in daylight. Do you get what I mean?

Sure, if I had got it in the smallest density (130%), my deception would have been complete. Not that this stopped many people from thinking the wig was my hair. The typical reaction was disbelief, then relief.

Them: “Wow, is this your hair?” Me: “No :)” Them: “*relieved laugh or smile* I would have said!”

To everybody surprised by my “hair” while I had it, please note that my natural hair is going to be like this in 2020 yo, just watch out! ^_^

Fabulous.

This is the word for my overall experience with this wig. While it was a bit stressful on weekdays, it was perfect for my weekend personality. Seriously, I only stopped wearing it because it had been 6 weeks already! There’s a certain attitude that comes with having length to flip or swish. The shakara was plenty!

Altogether, I love this wig! If you’re looking for a simple protective style that lets your hair rest, grab this. It’s simple and stress-free (so soft + super low maintenance) and so beautiful. Before $1 became N365, this wig would have been a steal at $221. Still, even with the present day’s exchange rates, it is worth spending your money on.
