Hi b82

i get my supplies from bargainlacewigs.com
always found them reasonable and they have everything you will ever need. as for a stylist, there is one in Glasgow that i use and i understand that there is another in Dunfermline who charges around £20 which is excellent. my stylist in Glasgow charges £50 which tbh, i think is excessive

as for styling products, dont be fooled by all the fancy dan stuff out there. try and stic to products that are alcohol free such as John Frieda Frizz ease. id also highly recommend a pomade such as Black and White's which costs about £5

As for shampoo and conditioner, i use tres semme. i shampoo every 10 days or so, or when you feel there is too much product weighing your hair down. when you wash your scalp id highly recommend a medicated shampoo such as Nutrugena to keep the scalp healthy, followed up by a light spray of liquid bandage that u can get in ASDA for about £5.

Another product i recommend is Got2B Glued - a popular styling gel from Swarzkoff, if you ever get a rash on your scalp from using tapes or adhesives. this Gel is excellent of using as a temporary adhesive to let the scalp recover. having a rash is no laughing matter
