I am marrying off very soon.
Went to sm to get my wig done. I am super picky...she did a nice job and pinned it nice. I had my baby so rushed it. I just hated the height and felt weird. Went home and I undid the whole thing. Brushed it out....

Now I'm stuck I want her to redo it. What should I tell her? I feel bad she worked hard and set it all nice..Obviously I will pay her again. But so embarrassed..

You could tell her you dropped it and it got messed up. Honestly, I would tell her the truth...that you didn't feel it was quite right and you want her to redo it. This way, she'll have a better idea of what you like for next time.

It’s a bit awkward. I get you. But tell her you tried it on again and tried touching it up to your liking but you did a bad job so you want another full appointment and you’ll pay her. Trust me, you’re not the first one to ask for this.

My dd is mad. Its the second time I did it. Diff sm. I beg them not to put hairspray, but they all say it needs it. I hate the stiff, glued on look. I brushed it all out.

I want to rewash it. Im so embarrassed. I like her work though.

You need spray. Find someone you like, and learn to trust them.
You'll be dancing and sweating, you want to look good.

Also - don't mess the makeup. Hire good people, and trust them.

Here is my story if you dont mind me sharing it here. I bought a new wig, an expensive one. I went on vacation and was dwelling on the wig the whole time how I didn't like the way it was cut and styled. I went back to someone else to have it trimmed just so to frame my face better. I come home, and noticed most of it got cut. More than I wanted or expected. I'm walking around with a pretty chopped wig, like ever before. I'm mad. I don't even know if I could even repair it or do anything. I feel like I just fell in. It's already cut. So with a style, is easier that you could always change style. But for me to repair to add hairs to extend the wig will cost me a big price.

Pay a babysitter so you could have patience at the SM. Leave yourself extra time. Watch carefully and be very clear with your preferences. Ask her to use the least amount of spray possible. Ask also if there is a different product that holds the style, but looks more natural.

I’m just like you.
I come home from the sm appointment and get busy with my blow dryer and hair iron….
You should just tell her that you were playing around with the pins/style and it all came out.
Why would she care if you are willing to pay her again? It’s hard for you to style it but it’s not hard for her.
Tell her that you’re sorry to bother her but you need another appointment. It’s no big deal for her really. When you go back, try to go without your baby.

Why do you have to pin it up? Just wear it regularly styled. I hate my sheitel in an updo.
