Weave or wig? What type of hair?

La1210

I love wearing weaves. In fact I never really wear my natural hair out. It's time for a new weave and I was considering a wig instead. I love Wendy Williams, her wigs are the bomb. But then again I can create the same effect with a weave.

What type of track hair do you ladies use? And why the hell is it so expensive for virgin remy and such? Those are my favorites but in Maryland its like $100+ a pack!
