Is that too long? Because it's curly and I like my hair long ( like down to just under my breasts) I was thinking maybe 26 would be the right length for the curls to reach around there? I'm sending payment tomorrow so help weould be greatly appreciated Big%20smile I'd like it the same length as my hair in this pic:



thank u people!

well it depends on what vendor you ordered from, and your height.. i'm a shorty so i'm 5'3 and i usually order 24 inches.. i ordered from jacksun and it comes to my waist line, and i usually cut it a little bit, but its always better to have more and cut it down.. some vendors are more generous than others..

I ordered it from rex, I was jussst about to edit that in lol. I'm like 5'4 so Im not tall, maybe I should make it 24? And i was thinking exactly that, better to have to longer because at least you can cut it...but then won't it make a more unnatural finishing...especially because the hair will be curly. It's my first lace wig so I'm a little anxious!!

thanks sexi, I just emailed asking for 24 inch instead. I can't wait! I was thinking about ordering a stock one too. Would you happen to know how long they take to come?

I am wearing a 24 inch CVR from ladydi that I had cut in long layers. I was nervous about the length at first, but my stylist convinced me to wear it.

I'm 5'7", so I kept most of the length, and it looks great. I don't think you will regret the purchase. Plus, you are too cute already, so anything you wear will look greatClap

Well, here's a rule of thumb- Holly told me for her curly or wavy units subtract 4 inches from the lentgh you requested, so if you order 26inches it should be around 22 inches when curls which comes under my chest on me (I'm 5'7 though) but you can as Rex if it's the same guidline for him
