    Question: I’m going to get this wig and follow your styling advice because you did a fabulous job. I have two air styling brushes. What diameter brush did you use? Also, on the lovely lift you got on the front, did you use the air styling brush and if so, did roll it toward the crown or toward the face or diagonally toward the back? I always get confused on this point. I live way too far from a wig stylist here in rural Kentucky so I’m on my own. Thank you so much for this review!

    • @frontporchwigchat6260
      @frontporchwigchat6260 День назад

      My air styler has a 1" barrel with a temperature dial. Mostly what I did before I used it was just hold the wig upside down, shake lightly then spray through the separated fibers with TressAllure wig wax a bit, let it dry then turn it right side up and put it on. I used the heat of my hands to keep sweeping it back from the face, to shape it, maybe lightly spritzed it in that swept back position. The air styler was mostly used to lift at the crown near the cap. From the front, if you just lift it straight back toward the crown repeatedly, it will naturally lift and fall to one side or another. You'll just have to decide where you want to part it. You just have to play with it, being careful of your lace front.

      I kept her and ordered one in Velvet Cream. It's pretty and I've worn it a few times, but it's a bit dark for me at my age. I prefer lighter tones like in the Frosty Blonde HL so I may sell that one. It's a really nice wig, no question. I did trim some of the longer flippy nape layers and thinned both out below the mono top since this piece has a lot of hair. But, it's a keeper, no idea why TressAllure discontinued it so soon after release.

It sounds like you and I have very similar bio hair as far as color goes and I'm in my 60's, too. I'm wondering what color you would recommend in Jon Renau, Large Scarlett? Thanks for any recommendations for us large headed ladies!

    • @frontporchwigchat6260
      @frontporchwigchat6260 3 дня назад

      @@nancyruckman5875 Depends on if you want a dark rooted wig or a non-rooted wig. My favorite neutral blonde in Jon Renau are 22F16 (or 22F16S8 if you want a root) or even 24B22, If you want a warmer blonde, a 14/26 would work. For blondes going gray, I do love Martini or a more gray color 39F38. What is good about jon Renau is they offer rooted versions as well as non-rooted versions of the same color. Just do a search for any of those colors and see if they look like one would suit you. Scarlett comes in lots of beautiful colors. Most average Jon Renau caps can adjust upwards to 23" in my opinion.

      I have never returned a wig other than for a glaring defect. All my purchases are generally no returns since I buy them all on clearance or from Ebay. The great thing about this wig is that it is easily trimmed shorter and can be thinned out below the edge of the mono top (there is pretty much no permatease, but there is a good bit of hair for me, personally) Color is difficult, probably the hardest part of wig buying because of color representations on camera and on individual monitors. Good luck, hope you love it! If not, you could sell it on Ebay most likely. The cap is quite comfortable for anyone who is average size and the lace front is gorgeous, much improved over past years~C

    Im thrilled to have just found your channel. I agree with everything you say and I learned a lot. You’re a straight shooter. I’ve been wearing wigs since 2021 due to #2 bouts of COVID which caused me to loose almost all of my hair. I’m pretty familiar with names and brands.

      Color is the hardest thing. I don't know about Champagne in TressAllure. The only wig I ever had called Champagne was an Ellen Wille and those vary from ashy to neutral to gold so hard to pinpoint what they even mean by champagne. They can go yellow or platinum heavy, but I have not seen Champagne in TressAllure. This is a true dark blonde with some subtle lighter blonde highlights and though the camera seems to pick it up, there is no red in this shade, at least on the one I have here nor on the Khloe I owned in this shade years ago.

      Hi, Jean. I was just thinking that Velvet Cream is just a slightly more dimensional version of the color on the Hanson wig you got from me. It's not too far off, really. Blessings to you as well! ❤

      @@jeanjacobs9965 You're very thoughtful, but the comparison between those colors is definitely close. Both have 24/14 in their codes, but the Velvet Cream has lighter highlights with the 613+140, a bit more dimension, I think, but again, we have both seen the 24/14 on Hanson so we'd know!

      There is not a generally stated color code for Velvet Cream, just a word color, however I did find a hint on one site that reads this way: Medium Blonde(24+14) w/Light Blonde(613+140) Highlights Hope this helps!

      I know, it's awful because Celebrity is such a great wig! If you do put a search parameter into Ebay, on occasion, you can find someone selling one. I do find one from time to time. It's a great wig, but apparently, Raquel Welch has abandoned the regular synthetics almost entirely.

      I have several heat friendly, but I need a low density synthetic to throw on to work & sweat, was & repeat. Lol So I just ordered RW Breeze in 14/88, but I really love the Celebrity. Thanks for your review though. I'll Subscribe in hopes you'll do more non rooted blondes. Take care, Blessings!

      @@lidip8700 Ah, another non-rooted blonde fan! One of the best of those is 1488 from Estetica which comes in both heat friendly styles and regular synthetics. It reads more cool on the heat friendly styles and slightly warm on the regular synthetics. On TressAllure, Velvet Cream is a very dark neutral to slightly warm blonde on regular synthetic, with 24 /14 color codes and some light blonde highlights and I think Frosty Blonde HL is the perfect neutral, non-rooted blonde from TressAllure. Hope this helps! I prefer non-rooted, too, because I'm a natural blonde.

    I like that color a lot. On the camera, the tips look very strawberry (on both wigs and I know there is no strawberry in Frosty Blonde). I would say neutral leaning warm. Frosty Blonde worked for me. Good to see you.

      Oh thank you! You, too, Margaret. I tried and tried to remove the erroneous red from the color, but it skewed other things. You're right, some of the same tones are in Frosty Blonde but neither color shows red at all. Yep, neutral dark blonde leaning warm is exactly right

    Cynthia, thanks for sharing this! I’ve crossed over to now being obsessed with buy wigs but I always find the best deals so that makes it even easier. I now feel myself overwhelmed whenever I enter 😂my spare bedroom.. I listed quite a few on Mercari site to sell, but I’ve only sold a few. I’ve joined a few Wig groups and it makes it even worse when I see a lot of these women buying a wiggle week and they’re not cheap ones. I just wonder how they do it and how they afford it. I really want this to stop and it is a real addiction I’m 72 years old. How many of these wigs am I actually going to wear, I actually look good in all of them, but hubby prefers the shorter ones on me. I’m thinking we need a support group to help our addiction to Wigs and I cannot find one, lol. Now waiting on another Raquel Welsh because the one I have I pretty much worn out. “Mirage” The struggle is real! There really is better ways to spend money than this….😢
