Hello my friends! Thank you so much for watching! I thought Tory would just be a review piece, but as you can probably tell, I loved it. These will be keepers and have a special place in my wig closet. xoxo Marlene. **Edit to add: At the time of this recording (6/8/24), Shirley is offering 40% discount on all styles from the City and Lux Collection using code: CityLux40 (this is not an affiliate code. I just happen to see it and thought I'd pass it along to all of you).
Got my Tiffany in Toasted Walnut R today!! Never thought I’d buy Belletress bc of their prices. But Shirley had an awesome sale! Didn’t try it on bc I got home late but did take it out of the box and place it on a mannequin head. Feels so silky and light! The color didn’t seem the same as yours but it’s nighttime… can’t wait to try it out at work tm!
Oh girl. I love love love them both. I have Tory in the Sunkissed Almond -R. Soooooo beautiful but I have a beautiful young co-worker that has been dx with breast cancer. I am going to go give her Tory today. That is so much like her bio and the LUX cap will be more comfortable on her head. I might go buy Tiffany, I haven't decided yet. I have all three of those colors on other style and love love love those colors. So beautiful!!!!!! You go girl!!!!! Charmaine 💜
Thank you so much, Laura! I love both these styles. My personal favorites are Tory in the Sunkissed and Tiffany in Toasted Walnut. Those are the two I kept for my personal wear. Love them both! xoxo Marlene
Tiffany in Toasted Walnut R is just stunning on you! The Shaken Oatmeal R is very pretty on you , too. You can’t go wrong with either of them. Same with Tory, both colors are stunning on you.
Thank you for the 40% off coupon Marlene! I bought Tiffany in cool champagne blonde and she’s absolutely perfect. I already wrote a review and just got her a few hours ago. The first wig I haven’t had to alter in any way. Thank you again! ❤
Both of these are beautiful wigs, but my preference would be Tiffany. I have Chloe in toasted walnut and love that color, but that shaken oatmilk is just gorgeous! I may have to save a few pennies up for the next sale on this one 😊. Thank you for another great review Marlene.
Hi Yuvonne, thank you so much for visiting! I thought Tiffany is just over the top and Shaken Oatmilk is a gorgeous color. Currently Shirley is offering 40% discount, if you decide to get it now. I'm sure she'll have the same again soon. xoxo Marlene
New subscriber here. Loved your video and I just purchased Tiffany in Toasted Walnut R from Shirley's Wig Shoppe !!! I just love wigs with bangs in rooted warm blondes!
Ohh...I really want to get a Tiffany now. I loved the style of Alva, but she fit my head like a vise and I know these BT caps fit great and comfortable. Love the look of the bangs too. Much better than previous styles. Thank you for showing us these and sharing your thoughts. Always so helpful in making purchasing decisions.
Thank you so much, Kathy! It really is beautiful! Not sure if you get a deal with Deana or someone else, but Shirley has all City and Lux at 40% with code CityLux40. I love the look of these bangs and certainly not the hot mess from the ones in the Cafe collection from a few years ago. Tory really surprised me. Love it as well. Hope all is well, my friend! xoxo
They're both so pretty! I lean more towards light to medium browns with highlights, so, for me I love the toasted walnut and chocolate brown. You look good in all the colors. Thanks for your reviews! 💛
Love Sunkissed Almond Blonde R! Gorgeous color! Reminds me of Brown Sugar Sweet Cream- is it similar? Also love Tiffany. She reminds me of my RofP Marion. I love how you wear your headbands so I put my Marion on & tried to replicate the headband look you created with Tiffany with the different layers pulled back. I am not talented with hair but I try hard. Thanks for your ideas! 😊
Hi Beautiful, thank you for stopping by! The difference between Sunkissed and Brown Sugar is that Sunkissed has auburn in the blend which brown sugar doesn't. Sunkissed has a similar blend to Mocha with Cream but doesn't have the black root. xoxo Marlene
Hi Beautiful! Thank you for visiting! Yes, Tiffany is gorgeous. Yesterday, Shirley posted 40% discount on all City and Luxe collections. If you're considering getting Tiffany, here's the code to use at checkout: CityLux40 xoxo Marlene
Hi Ann, thank you so much for stopping by! I agree about Tiffany's practically and will be wearing them often; I'll save Tory for fun occasions but definitely not practical for me to wear every day. xoxo Marlene
Wowsie wow wow wow! Both styles = stunning! All 4 colors = stunning! I didn't think I was going to be interested in Tory being such a long style. But it's so gorgeous on you that I think I might need to get her. And Tiffany is definitely going in my cart in the next Shirley's wig party. Not sure how I'm going to pick which color to get though! Thank you for the fabulous reviews! 💙💙💙
Thank you so much, Sharon! I'm right there with you. I thought Tory was going to be for review and pass on, but NOPE! These are keepers. I will be wearing this long hair beauty for sure. And yes, get Tiffany as soon as Shirley offers one of those great deals at her wig party. It's gorgeous! Thank you for visiting, Beautiful! xoxo Marlene
Hi Tami, yes, I love Tiffany; however, I've had a change of heart with Tory. After wearing her most of today, I've realized I love it too despite the length. Tory is gorgeous and both will be residing with me :-) xoxo Marlene
Hi Deb, thank you so much for visiting! Yes, I agree and mentioned in the video how it resembles Honeybush and how they differ. I thing Tiffany is just gorgeous. xoxo Marlene
Hi Marlene. I drifted off to sleep last night and didn’t get the chance to see your entire video but it was the first thing I’m watching today. Thank you for always making videos that feel like I’m chatting with my best friend. You are delightful.
Both styles are gorgeous! Tory is stunning on you😍 I like Tiffany in Shaken Oatmilk Blonde R. I like the Sunkissed Almond Blonde R because I’m a blonde. But all the colors are pretty😍 You look nice in all of them😎
Hi Dede, thank you so much! I love the lighter ones as well. Had someone told me 4 years ago when I started that I'd be wearing blondes, I wouldn't have believed them. xoxo Marlene
Wow, Tiffany makes u look so young. I love the shaken oat milk colour but to be honest they all look great on you. I just wish when they have bells & whistles they would do the lot, like there is no extended nape, sometimes it’s bra strap adjusters, could, could you have a word please, lol xx
Hi Linda, thank you so much! I have to agree with you about the bra strap adjusters. I'll be meeting with the manufacturer soon, and I will certainly mention this. I don't know why the extended nape and velcro was added to the City and not the Luxe. xoxo Marlene
I am so happy you did these! I have been looking for a video on Tiffany and could not find a single one. I can always count on you to give timely and great reviews. I do have a thought for you on how to tell if it could fit a 23 inch circumference. I wonder if you could get a 23 inch mannequin head and see how it fits for the purpose of reviewing. It could be helpful for those who do have a larger circumference. Thanks again and now I'm saving up to get me a Tiffany!!! Have a great weekend, Marlene!
Thank you so much for stopping by, the sweet comment, and the incredibly great suggestion. I hadn't thought of getting a 23" canvas head. Thank you! I'll be ordering it today! You have a great weekend as well! xoxo Marlene
I love Tiffany. Starting to save up immediately! I do prefer you in the lighter colors, but that’s just me, my bio hair is a medium ash brown, which is great to make my blue eyes pop, but I like blonde hair. (Not the grey I have now, tho…) I love your videos. More down to earth and relatable to me.
Hi Barb, thank you so much for visiting and your comment! It really made my day. I am now loving the lighter colors as well. How my taste has changed throughout the years! Currently, Shirley is offering 40% discount on Tiffany, but if you can't get it now, keep an eye out. She offers these discounts occasionally. I have yet to find them at a lower price point. Again, a big thank you for the compliment on my videos. It means more than I can say. xoxo Marlene
I think you should reconsider "not wearing long hair anymore" with Tory!! Oh my goodness did it look fantastic on you! Both colors look great but I think I liked Sunkissed Almond a little more (I like my blondes LOL). Thanks for the review, Marlene. I'm 55...have always had fine hair I could never grow out much past my shoulders and am considering Tory after your review.
Hi Sharon, thank you so much! Yep, I reconsidered and am absolutely keeping and wearing Tory. It's absolutely gorgeous. It's not too often that I put a wig on my head and absolutely fall in love, but I love Tory! Put Tory on your list. She's gorgeous. xoxo Marlene
I absolutely love Tiffany! Question though. I'm new to wigs and have found that they don't look the same on me because I'm 5'9". My favorite wig would be to my collar bone, like Tiffany is on you. I'm afraid that it wouldn't be that long on me, but I really really like this style. I like wispy bangs. What do you think? I thought about Calabasas, but no bangs and a side part. I'm more of a almost middle gal.
Hi Joanie! While our height does affect the length of our wigs to some extent, our face length and width along with our neck length will have more of an impact. For example, I'm 5'4" but my neck is 5", my face 7.75" and wide at 6.5" therefore wigs will appear shorter on me than on a wearer that may be taller but with a shorter neck and face (most wigs appear shorter on me than on some other reviewers). My suggestion is to measure your face from hairline to chin going on the side of your nose. Measure you neck from chin to collar bone and the width of your face by measuring from the outer corner of one eye to the other and going over the bridge of your nose. Compare your measurements to mine. If your face is shorter and narrower, Tiffany will be longer on you than on me. Anytime you see a wig, such as Calabasas, look at the measurements provided for the wig compared to your face measurements. This will help you get a pretty good idea of how long/short the wig will be on you. I hope this helps. xoxo Marlene
Hi Beautiful, thank you so much for stopping by! Tory has HD fibers, you can use heat on it to restyle the bang as you like. I love the Sunkissed as well. xoxo Marlene
Stunning as ever, Marlene. I love them both on you. Marlene, one more question for you and I'll leave you alone. Do you think it's ok if I put a bit of fabric softener into a spray bottle(with water of course)ans spray my wigs with it occasionally to keep it soft? I've seen lots of videos saying it's okay but I thought I'd ask you personally. Also, should it be warm water in the spray bottle or cold? Thank you sweetheart. 💚
Thank you so much, my friend! Personally, I have never used fabric softener; however, I have seen members in groups say they use it as you mention while others wash their wigs with it. I've also seen where wearers say it leaves their wigs gummy. I don't think it'll damage your wig. I say, give it a try and see how it works for you. If it works, then great! If you feel it leaves your wig gummy, soak the wig in a basin with baking soda (dissolved) and rinse under cool running water. I've also seen where wearers apply window cleaner to their wigs and let it sit for a while, then wash the wig with shampoo. This is supposed to remove any product or product build up. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio windrow cleaner? Oh my! Well, I'll keep that in mind, darlin'. I did what you said and washed my wig in the baking soda and then conditioned it(with just a drop of fabric softener like you told me)and quickly rinced it out. It turned out quite nicely for temporary fix until my regular wig shampoo and conditioner get here next week. Thanks so much, Marlene, you're amazing. 💚
Tiffany is just gorgeous. That style with bangs works so well on you. I like the toasted walnut on you best. It's just what I'm looking for. I have been wearing that style for ears since losing so much hair. I will order it in pumpkin pie spice rooted. (closest of the Belle Tress colors to my own natural copper red) . I just hope it fits. Tory is also gorgeous. Very long, and slightly wavy with a bang is how I wore my hair all my life till I began losing my hair. At my age, it's too long for me now. But you could really do the longer styles. What was the issue with the bangs on "Sugar Bush", and the others in the City collection?
Hi Beautiful, thank you so much for visiting and the kind comment. Tiffany is a beautiful style. I just saw Shirley is offering 40% discount with the code CityLux40. I just don't know how long it's good for. The problem with Honey Bush and a few of the others was the bangs were very flat and just fell pretty odd on the forehead. Personally, I used a hot air brush and was able to get them to work, but I saw many others that had to sweep the bangs to the side or wear them as a curtain bang. The bang just didn't fall naturally as they do on Tiffany and Tory. It may have also been due to a very narrow center part that caused this; this is just a guess on my part because I don't know why. The style was beautiful. It was basically Alpha Blend with a bang, but the bang just didn't work at all. xoxo Marlene
If I can wear burnt biscuit R and beige linen R in BT, and I can wear RW shaded biscuit, do you think I can wear shaken oatmeal? My lightest blond which I think is neutral is EW rooted champagne 24 25 20. (I wear a lot of leaning warm blondes, but not yellow butter blondes.)
Hi Brenda, I don't wear yellow butter blondes either; burnt biscuit is 10/16/88 + 8 and shaken oatmilk is 8/25/613 +8. The root is the same on both colors; the difference will be in the blend. in burnt biscuit we have light medium brown (10), light blonde (16) and warm golden blonde (88); in shaken oatmilk, we have a blend of medium brown (10) honey blonde (25), and a blend of pale and golden blonde (613). Personally, I love Shaken Oatmilk and don't feel it's too far from brunt biscuit. I wear both colors because neither one is yellow. xoxo Marlene
Hi Marlene where can I order the wig cap you are wearing, the wig grip from Frannies isn’t working too well for me. I have a lace front wig and one without a lace front and it just keeps sliding off
Hi Beautiful, the wig grip I'm wearing is from Shirley's Wig Shoppe. It doesn't have a lace, but I love it because it's two sided. It has a silicone strip on one side to be worn with the silicone against the head (wearers with hair loss) and really grips the head and the velcro on the outer side prevents the wig from budging; for wearers with hair, the silicone is worn facing out and also prevents the wig from budging. Here's the link: shirleyswigshoppe.com/collections/wig-caps/products/wigsecure-by-amy-gibson
Hi Beautiful, no I don't think these two colors are anywhere close. Shaken Oatmilk is a blend of blondes while Cookies and Cream (I'm going by memory because I no longer have it) starts out with a blend of light, pearl and pure ash blonde then transitions to the pure ash blonde at the bottom. There is no warmth to Cookies and Cream while Shaken Oatmilk is blended with some warmer blonde and consistent throughout. It doesn't transition to a lighter color at the bottom portion. xoxo Marlene

Personally, I used a hot air brush and was able to get them to work, but I saw many others that had to sweep the bangs to the side or wear them as a curtain bang. The bang just didn't fall naturally as they do on Tiffany and Tory. It may have also been due to a very narrow center part that caused this; this is just a guess on my part because I don't know why. The style was beautiful. It was basically Alpha Blend with a bang, but the bang just didn't work at all. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio Thanks, Ill check it out!
If I can wear burnt biscuit R and beige linen R in BT, and I can wear RW shaded biscuit, do you think I can wear shaken oatmeal? My lightest blond which I think is neutral is EW rooted champagne 24 25 20. (I wear a lot of leaning warm blondes, but not yellow butter blondes.)
Hi Brenda, I don't wear yellow butter blondes either; burnt biscuit is 10/16/88 + 8 and shaken oatmilk is 8/25/613 +8. The root is the same on both colors; the difference will be in the blend. in burnt biscuit we have light medium brown (10), light blonde (16) and warm golden blonde (88); in shaken oatmilk, we have a blend of medium brown (10) honey blonde (25), and a blend of pale and golden blonde (613). Personally, I love Shaken Oatmilk and don't feel it's too far from brunt biscuit. I wear both colors because neither one is yellow. xoxo Marlene
Marlene do you like Tiffany or McQueen better? Your personal opinion?
Hi Darlene! I prefer Tiffany over McQueen; however, I prefer Tiffany because it's more my style. xoxo Marlene
Nice wigs! Out of my price range though.
Thank you so much for stopping by! xoxo Marlene
Hi Marlene where can I order the wig cap you are wearing, the wig grip from Frannies isn’t working too well for me. I have a lace front wig and one without a lace front and it just keeps sliding off
Hi Beautiful, the wig grip I'm wearing is from Shirley's Wig Shoppe. It doesn't have a lace, but I love it because it's two sided. It has a silicone strip on one side to be worn with the silicone against the head (wearers with hair loss) and really grips the head and the velcro on the outer side prevents the wig from budging; for wearers with hair, the silicone is worn facing out and also prevents the wig from budging.

@@MarlenesWigChatStudio Thank you Marlene I will buy it from there you are awesome!
You're very welcome! xo
Would you say Shaken Oat Milk is similar to Cookies and cream?
Hi Beautiful, no I don't think these two colors are anywhere close. Shaken Oatmilk is a blend of blondes while Cookies and Cream (I'm going by memory because I no longer have it) starts out with a blend of light, pearl and pure ash blonde then transitions to the pure ash blonde at the bottom. There is no warmth to Cookies and Cream while Shaken Oatmilk is blended with some warmer blonde and consistent throughout. It doesn't transition to a lighter color at the bottom portion. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio thank you so much! You look beautiful in everything you try on, but the first one is perfecto!
Thank you so much! xoxo
The bangs are 4.5 inches. 💜
Thanks! I guessed 4" so I wasn't too far off, but I appreciate you letting us know. xo Marlene
