TIP TUESDAY | What to do with visible permatease and bangs that are too long | ALVA by NORIKO

- Here is my review of Alva: • Noriko ALVA in Silver ...
I know I mentioned that I would use powder and even add rooting to this one in my review, but I have a wig sister who wears grays coming over this week and I'd like her to be able to see this color unchanged. If I decide to keep this one, then I will root it and film that (not sure I am ready to wear a gray yet).

There was something special about you when I started watching and came to find out your love Jesus!! Just love you!
I have Alva. Picked her up a few months back on clearance and haven’t worn her out yet even though I think she’s real cute. I too found her bangs too be too long for me but already sort of “messed up” by trying to cut them with a straight scissor. I still think I can salvage the overall look via your hot air brush technique, even if it’s too late for the bangs. I just don’t know HOW we all fell into this fantabulous blessing to have such a SWEET and CARING, KNOWLEDGEABLE, sister like you to hold our hands and show us the way. We are so grateful for you, Denise
Thank you for your incredibly kind comments, Julie! Hugs!
I agree about what a blessing Denise is🥰
I have several Alvas, all of them have natural parts with peramatease except my ICED MOCHA R. It had a flat, nasty looking birds nest part. I was not happy but God gave me an idea, I picked up parts of my part on both sides & steamed under the part. It looks just as good as the other Alvas
Absolute fantastic transformation. You are such a gem for us that are challenged in the fixing of a wig department.. This now looks so much more realistic! Awesome job.
Thank you so much!
Just the hot brush alone made a huge impact. It’s amazing how a little love and attention can bring a wig to life!
Thank you so much Denise! I am new to wigs and have been so frustrated with my wig journey. I have ruined some really expensive wigs by thinning too much, ect . In an effort to style them to look more natural. I really appreciate your videos. You are helping so many people❤ Thank you!!!! I would love to do videos and help others the way you do. Maybe one day I will have your confidence. Lol
Alva has such a modern casual look. Definitely could wear this everyday.
I always learn something new from you Denise! Thanks for everything you do for all of us new wig wearers!
I don't know if you will see this, but I want to trim the bangs on a cheap Amazon wig, and I think that your advice will be what I need. Denise, you are one of the kindest, sweetest women I've ever met ( well, sort'a). The holy Spirit is evident in your heart and words.❤️
Thank you so much, Carol!! I hope you have MUCH success with your trimming! Nothing better than practicing on a cheap wig!
That color really looks great on you.
Thank you so much! I'm SERIOUSLY thinking of rooting her a little and keeping her. I'm just not sure I'm ready for gray, my daughter said it made me look older, lol. BUT- who cares, right?
You did an excellent job. I like that you play with wigs and give us ideas.
Sweetie you have helped me so so much I could not even begin to tell you what a huge blessing you are to the beginning of my journey. I have not even found a wig yet, as I have to be very financially careful, so I've been wearing scarves for the last couple months. I ordered a couple cheap ones just a test my toes there was so horrified I thought I would never have the confidence to have a wig, just playing with one of my cheap ones I swear to God I felt like a beautiful princess!!! You and your videos alone are the only thing that has helped me thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much my friend! I knew when I was watching your last video that I needed to see this one. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. May God bless you this day and always
God bless you, too!! ❤❤❤
New wig wearer here, and your videos have been my favorites! You’re a great teacher! Thank you for your great help!
Thanks sister 🙏 Denise! Awesome & so helpful tips! Ordered the hot air brush :) It looks so much better with the lift & bang cut 👍 You give me the confidence now to get my girls just the way I want them ❤️ XOXO
Just watched this again, needed a refresher course🙂 still love that wig!!
The bang cutting tips are so helpful. Thanks Denise 💕
YAY!
Thank you for the tips. The gray shade looks really good on you! 🙂
OMG, I absolutely LOVE this wig on you!!! The color is amazing and so edgy.
Thank you!! 😍
You are AMAZING and I absolutely love your videos!!!!!
This grey silver looks awesome on you….
👍🏼👍🏼
Great video!! I just bought a wig and was unhappy with the permatease on top. Very helpful!! Thank you. That wig looks fantastic on you!! ❤
SO cute! Thanks for the tips and especially for your generous spirit! Blessings. 😍
Thank you so much, Sheri!!
Thank you so much for all of your help.
Wow - thank.. you for doing this. Makes me feel more empowered to adjust some of my wigs! You're the best.
YAY! That is the goal!
TY so much didn’t realize she was parted wrong for me. You help me so much because I love the style. And it seems workhorse everyday wig.
Thanks so much Denise for your great tips. I have a couple of Alvas. It’s such a versatile wig.
I am seriously thinking of getting her in another color... I don't wear straight wigs often, or wigs with bangs, but I am LOVING this one!
Thank you Denise. You’re so helpful. ❤️
Love the info on how to hide permatease. This has been my biggest problem. Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
Alva is gorgeous on you! Love the gray/silver.
I feel like you are our friend! Thanks for how articulate and detailed you are and enjoyable to listen to.
Awwww, thank you so much! I feel like I am your friend, too! Truly! It is weird but when I am making these videos I am picturing all of you and truly feel like I am talking straight to you all... HUGS!
Oh if I would have seen this 3 wigs ago! Thanks so much for the great tips. You are wonderful.
Thank you so much!!! I am so glad it was helpful!
I so much appreciate the bang cutting with the razor. You are so sweet and humble. Good job
That is so kind of you! Thank you! 😊
Gosh, at first I did not like this wig at all … but after your working on it, I ended up loving it! Nice job!
Absolutely loved these tips! Thanks.
❤
Thank you for the info , I didn't know the air brush could make such a difference ~ your a good teacher ~ thanks for all the good tips
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your Tuesday tips. You provided helpful suggestions. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
yes it was very helpful to me I am hoping my new secondhand wig will arrive tomorrow and early on this evening I thought I may have to get a hot air brush but you said I could use a hairdryer I had been wondering but everyone keeps talking about the hot air brush so yes very helpful and I love your videos. thank you
This Alva is so cute on you. And the color is great with your skintone! Very flattering. Thanks for the tips!
Hugs and blessings,
Shelly
❤❤❤
First, just let me say how absolutely gorgeous you are...your skin, flawless!!! You not only look beautiful but you have such a beautiful spirit. Anyway, you are my fave. Although I do watch a few others, I watched you almost exclusively. I trust your opinions and suggestions. I am 69 years old and have been thinning on top for several years but now the thinning as become quite visible. I have used Topick and other products to cover up but I think it is time that I look into wearing a wig. I have found your tutorials to be very encouraging and informative. So I will continue to watch as I start to make choices about what wig(s) will work for me. Thank you for your dedication to the community of wig wearers. I know just by reading your comments that you have been a "God Send" to countless women (and probably men as well). P.S. congrats on your weight loss. Wishing you much success on your new health journey. ~ A fan from Utah
Love the color!!
You are so much fun! You have inspired me to get my 2 old wigs out and mess around with them. I loved both of them and wore them a lot. Maybe I can breathe life into the old girls, maybe I can’t-but now I have some ideas on what to do. Thanks!😊
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching!
Brava Denise! I have a similar wig that this is going to help me with!
Very informative I love wigs and feel very comfortable wearing them that is half the battle wear the wigs with confidence
Exactly!!
Oh, this is one of the most informative wig talks that I've ever seen. i NEED the razor scissors. Thank you so much.
Thank you!!! ❤️
Thank you for showing this. I have been struggling using the hot air tools
I struggle A LOT with curling a heat friendly wig.... I'm starting to give up I am so bad at it, but something like this I can do! At least that is something, lol.
Hi Denise. I just want to thank you for the great tips you're teaching us. I am all thumbs and I've never been able to style my hair and now that I have wigs I've been afraid to ruin them. You've given great tips and I'm anxious to try now. You're so kind and caring! Thank you again
You are so welcome!
You look absolutely gorgeous in every wig you wear ❤❤❤❤❤
I love your videos, I started losing my hair and am new to wigs. Your wig videos are very informative thank you so much for taking the time to help us out on our journey.
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for watching!!!
I’ve recently found you and absolutely love your videos and tips!😍
Thank you so much, Karron! WELCOME!! I'm so glad you are here!
How is it possible to look so good in so many different colors and styles??? Thanks for the tips :)
I always learn something valuable from your videos; plus you are fun to watch
Awesome! Thank you!
Excellent help, Denise! I've had Alva for quite some time but haven't worn her because she needs the bangs trimmed and I was afraid to do it. Now I have the information and courage to do it. ❤
I'm thrilled to hear this!! Please let me know how it goes!
I LOVE this Video. Thank You Denise 😘
Thanks again for all the info. Hadn’t seen how to use razor comb before. I’ve done the grab the wrong scissors before. Had to get very creative with a chunk missing. Just got some straighter mid length wigs that are going to need lift and bangs trimmed. Video was great timing for me.
Glad to help!
Great info! I can’t thank you enough for your super awesome videos! I’m hooked. You have super great ideas and info to share and you present them in such a excellent and engaging way. I think I’ve watched 10-15 of your videos since yesterday 😂. I haven’t been able to find one showing you cutting the front lace yet. Hope I find that one. I could kick myself because I just donated a couple of wigs to goodwill a few weeks ago because I didn’t know all this awesome stuff you’re teaching. Keep up the great work.
Thank you!! I actually have multiple videos on cutting the lace, here is one: ruclips.net/video/_-9eT-_oqWM/видео.htmlsi=Wpm4mVOlYp2Thome
Excellent content! Learned a lot
Thank you so much. I have noticed that many wigs are cute but the bangs are too heavy for my personal taste. Now I know what to do to get a more wispy bang on my wigs. This opens up more wig choices--awesome!
I am new subscriber to your channel and have found your videos to be informative as well as fun to watch!
Thank you so much for subscribing!!!
That looks super cute!
Thanks for the great tips, Denise!
Very helpful to me. The wigs I have recently purchased all needed a lot of work.
It can be frustrating when that happens, but knowing what to do makes it all so much easier! Hugs!
Thank you from the tips. Learned a lot.
That color and syle is stunning on you!
Thank you!!
Thank you as just bought Alva and you have been so helpful as I am having issue with hair falling forward and bangs are to long. So before I ruin her and am using my hot brush. Oh, FYI I did the same with my sheers and scissors on another wig...took a chunk out.
Dear Denise, I am so glad I ran across this video because I have three Alvas and they’re all different! the permatese, the bangs, even the length. and I have had to thin out various sections of each wig with the thinning shears but I do not have a fringe bang cutter which I need to get. This was so helpful for me as I like to play around with the wigs and get them to look just right for my face. I also cut wispy fringe bangs on my Raquel Welch On Point and they stick out because I was afraid to put too much heat on them possibly getting them to flat so maybe a hot brush will help. I’ll give it a try once I get a brush. Anyway, thank you so much for valuable styling tips and information. Pam
Thank you soooooooo much. Ordered the razor comb and blades!!!
Hope you like it as much as I do!
Loved this video. I have Alva and was so disappointed in her however this information made a big difference for me and gave me new hope for her. Took your advise and now I love her.
Thank you so much for all that you do. Have an awesome blessed day. ❤️
YAY! That's so awesome!
Enjoyed this video and like the razor comb tip! I love the Alva wig but don't own one...yet! Thanks for the info!
You are so welcome!
Hi Denise, Just such great information you’re sharing here. Thank you so much! I have Alva, in Silver Stone, and I love her. She’s a little long for me. I haven’t had long hair in years and I’m so use to wearing shorter styles and pixies. I’ve worn her several times and I’m getting use to her. I did trim her bangs, been a bang girl most of my life. I like permatease. I just worked it with my fingers and my comb. She has become one of my favorites. Thanks again for all your tips, I truly appreciate you. God Bless!😘. P.S. You look gorgeous in this color!
Thank you so much, Sally!
Thank you so much for these fantastic tips! I am going to work on Shannon that I just received in the mail!
Let me know how it goes!!!
I like this Denise--I'm getting one with permatease & I will try it! Thanks.
Hope it works great for you!! Which one are you getting?
I am four months into my wig journey. Alva was my first purchase and I love her!
That is amazing! So many struggle greatly in the beginning, that is a huge success!!
You look amazing. Thank you for these posts
Thank you so much!!
Great tips !!! Thank you ! I am knew to wigs and this help me a lot !
I'm so glad!
What a great color on you!!!
Looks great! Very informative as a new wig wearer and I love the tip about the tools because I did the same thing with my first wig, thought I had the thinning shears but had the regular cutting scissors and took a large chunk out! I was furious with myself for being so stupid! Good advice to put them away when done with them, it’s a costly mistake!
I know! I felt the same!
Oh Denise, I hope you see this! This video was so very helpful to me! I saw Alva on line several months ago and fell in love with her. But by the time she arrived I was well into my chemo and feeling quite ill. I played with her a bit and knew I needed to do something with the bangs and the permatease, but I was just too sick to know how to handle it all. I had my scissors in hand a couple of times, ready to do some alterations and then, fortunately, I decided "now" was not the time. So I put her back in her box and decided to wait until I was ready. Today I am so glad I waited! Now my chemo is over, and last week I had surgery (double mastectomy, and radiation still to come.) I am recovering now from the surgery and I am ready to start thinking about Alva again. And there, today, was your video! Now I know that if I had done something earlier it would have been the wrong thing, and now I am feeling more like wanting to present myself to the public better. Last week I didn't care how the public saw me. Today my mind is clearer, and I can start to think about how to work with my lovely Alva to make her right for me. I know you made this video some time ago, but the Lord's timing for me is perfect. I was meant to see your video today. I don't know when I will actually do the work on Alva, but now I know what she needs, and I will be ready. Thank you, dear sister, for sharing your experience with me. Big hugs to you.
Great presentation, thank you!!!! Very helpful
Hi Denise! I just recently found your channel and you have been a blessing to me on my new wig journey. It is so refreshing to come across a humble woman. I am also a sister in Christ and appreciate you. God bless you and yours! I really hope you see this post since this is an older video of you. ❤😊
Thank you so much, Andi! What a kind comment. HUGS!
This helps me! I have not worn a wig, and feel it might be a huge annoyance on my head. But I'm going to soon be forced to wear wigs if I want hair. I'm old, but still try to be as presentable as I can. I like lift/volume away from my head (as opposed to flat). So now I feel hopeful I can use these techniques to achieve that and would like to try Alva - since that is close to the way I wear my hair. Thank you
Great tips, Denise, and let me just say this. I LOVE that color on you!! ❤ Oh my gosh, when you are ready to go grey/silver, you will look fabulous!! Just beautiful gf!!
Thank you!! 😍
Blessings Denise, I have Alva, and as one of these people who ordered her and waited. I was glad I did. She is my everyday go-to wig. I love how she looks; no one knows she is a wig. I took your advice, bought the blade, and am planning to trim up the bang a bit. As with all things, I think she needs to have her bang lifted before you trim or you could be in big trouble. As for the Noroko fiber, she is a bit heavier than my Estetica and EW brands that I go to most. I wish Noriko had put the lace part and front in her and we never know...but I have seen popular wigs become better because we asked. Thank you Denise...Love the color on you. I am wearing ChanpagneR and yes the rotting goes a long way and mess up this girl once in a while for a different look. ❤🙏❤
I don’t wear a wig, but I’m considering it. You’re teaching me a lot!
Great tip Tuesday, I will definitely attempt this on a few girls that have permatease showing in the front
Denise, thank you for this video! I bought Alva bc of all the good reviews. It was my first wug without a monofilament part. The bangs had to be cut; a little at a time. Then I looked at the top. It looked like a rats nest. (I have never seen a rate nest but that is the description that came to mind). I like the rest of the wig so I put it aside hoping for a tutorial and here you are! Keep your tutorials coming!
Glad it was helpful! HUGS!
This is SO helpful. Now I understand a lot more about the Hot AIR Brush! I never heard of that razor comb. This is really important as I'm waiting delivery on a BT Columbia replacement :-(
The razor is an invaluable tool for sure.
I have this wig & I am so happy to see how you were able to give some lift in certain areas. I will say that on my wig, right at the hairline of fore head in the very front, there is a white strip of material that to me, stood out like a sore thumb. I can kind of see it on yours as well. I took a Silver felt tip pen and used it to soften that white line to a soft grey….worked perfect. I have not washed it yet, but I’m sure if it washed out I would just do it again ….it was very easy to do.
Denise this video was so informative! Thank you so much. I have Alva in iced mocha-r. I love my Alva and have worn her several times but lately have noticed the permatease looking more obvious than I’m comfortable with. So I am going to try your visto techniques on her! I want to say I absolutely love this silver color on you! Girl, is there any wig or color that doesn’t look good on you?? I don’t think so! God bless you Denise for being such a caring person!
I hope it works for you! Thank you so much for your kind comments! They mean so much to me. ❤
Thank you, so many different opinions on regular synthetics and what can be used or not used online. It helps to see what can be done to personalize a wig to suit one's facial features. Great to know that a hot air brush can be used to add volume at the top and help lift bangs even on synthetic wigs.
😍
Hot Air Brush and thinning scissors best tools ever!
You have just helped me save my Alva….she was running way too flat with visible permatease on the top. I do wear her with hair bands, but this tip with the hot air brush is a game changer!
Wonderful!
I am not a wig wearer! I have longer blonde colored hair! For about 20 years I had my hair cut in a pixie! I loved loved loved it! About 5 years ago I decided to go my hair out and I love it, but I keep
It in some sort of up doo all the time! I saw some pixie wigs that I love! I thought about getting one! I got a $20 wig off Amazon, not exactly pleased! I don’t know what I’m doing, but I thought it would be fun to have long hair sometimes and a pixie sometime! I know it sounds crazy! I have watched several of your videos and you really rock your wigs! They all look like you grew them! You are pretty amazing! I also love your tee shirts! I love the Lord and it’s refreshing to see you let your light shine! Thank you!
I just bought Alva on the secondary market...so recently I haven't even tried it on yet! The one thing that stood out as soon as I unpacked her was the permatease fibers on top. I'll be sure to employ your hot air brush tips straightaway. On point video as usual, Denise.
I hope you can make her into a wig you LOVE! So many women love this one and I can see why!
Hi, Denise! I’m so new to this journey, that I haven’t even purchased my first wig yet! The tip you taught me in this is, how to cut bangs without using straight scissors. I still have my bio hair, but it’s thinning and I’ve been losing it for about five years. I’ve been recently diagnosed with fibrosing alopecia. I want to get all the info I can BEFORE I need to know it. Since I still have my bio hair, I need to cut my bangs. I do it myself and I thought I was good at cutting it, but my daughter, (who’s autistic) told me otherwise. 😉 Anyway, I’m going to have to get me a pair of those, sometime soon, to please my daughter! Haha! Thanks for everything you do! God bless you, sister!!
I love tip Tuesday good job Denise I guess you could root with a spray colour also ❤️
You sure could! I personally don't like the way root spray makes my wigs feel, but I know quite a few people use it.
Thanks so much, you are so helpful!
Omg you are so helpful.
Thanks, I have this very problem with my Evan wig and have looked for help everywhere. I will give the air dryer a try, the wig is so thick I’m not sure it will help. Love your videos, keep taking time to do them. Would love to see how to add rooting color to a wig, I brought the color, but I’m afraid to use it. Again thanks.
So pretty on you!
The wig looks gorgeous on you!
Thank you!!
You know, I don’t think people noticed from the keys if they’re not wig wearers. This one looks great on you, and I love that color! It’s the color I normally wear. You look so pretty in it
Thank you sooooo much. Love your tips!
You are so welcome!
