It's a BIRD.  It's a PLANE.  It's a.....PRODUCT REVIEW!!!!!!!!

Of sorts.  Well, not an actual "product", per se, but I am doing a review.  A wig review!  Yes, I said WIG, as in false hair.  Lol.  Let me start by saying that while I obviously have a head full of my own hair, I do like to switch things up for the summer, so I was super excited when  I stumbled across this wig online.  And while I would definitely not call myself a Rihanna fan, I am loving that shaved-on-one-side-longer-on-the-other-side cut that she & so many other celebrities are rocking.  I was hyped when I came across this similarly styled wig option. You mean I can look like Rihanna w/o butchering my own hair?  Count me in....mama likey!

Enter the "RIHANNA ROCK" wig by Isis.

  I paid $25 for this wig, not including shipping, from http://www.hairstopandshop.com/shop/pc/RCP145-Rihanna-Rock-wig-br-b-font-color-FF0000-Red-Carpet-Premier-font-br-by-Isis-Collection-4p2326.htm  It arrived in a little under 7 days, and I fell in love the moment I took it out of the box!

Side View: 

Sadly, I don't look like the model in the picture, so this is how I wore it:

Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the back or the shorn side, which is a shame as that is what really what makes this wig, but I couldn't get the camera angle right.  I may try again later.  The "shaved" side is not actually shaved, of course, but is rather like a cute pixie, layered cut.  Sooo cute.  Also, I have a larger head (hey THANKS for not noticing!) and this wig is still very comfortable.  The hair itself is very soft, and the curls are not stiff.  I've gotten a ton of compliments thus far!  I mean a love this wig so much that I'm buying another one on payday.  Always good to have a backup, right?

I give this wig 4 out of 4 stars.  I would definitely recommend.

What say you?  YAY or NAY?????

I Got All My Sisters With Me...

Is it JULY already??? Geez, where has the time gone?  Seems like I haven't blogged in forever, right? This daggone job, I tell you.  Extremely grateful to be employed in this poor economy, but I could definitely do with a little more moola (read ALOT) in my paycheck if they're going to work me this hard.  Like a slave, I tell you.  Like a slave. 

Anyway, how are you guys doing?  Hopefully, whoever was reading my blog has not abandoned me due to thinking I myself had abandoned ship.  Nope, again just busy.  I finally had a chance to slow down and get some rest yesterday, due to the 4th of July holiday.  Did everyone (who had yesterday off) enjoy their time off from work?  Hopefully none of you came away with any "fireworks-related" injuries...  In true Chicki Tee fashion, I spent my day off chilling with my family, specifically the sister and sister-in-law, who is in town.  A couple of errands here, a Whole Foods run there....nothing major. 




Anyway, I do actually have a few miniscule tiny updates to tell, but we'll get to that later.  Until then...ciao!
