Hi, Amanda! I am a senior who is still struggling after the loss of my spouse and finding my way through life with a few health problems of my own. I found your delightful channel this morning about 4am and have been watching your wonderful videos. Your sweet smile and bubbly personality popped me out of the despondency, and especially you gave me hope of regaining some confidence and self-esteem. ☺️ After watching for a few hours now I’ve pared down my list of those wigs, and today I will start saving to get one of my own. Thank you so very much for the solution to dealing with my hair issues. May you have a blessed day!
Very cute! I’m a platinum, light grey, with strands of strawberry blonde. My crown has thinned to the point that my scalp is obvious. Which causes me to feel lacking in self confidence. I cannot express enough how your reviews and educational tutorials have helped me and is slowly building my confidence. Thank you for being so down to earth💜
I'm about a year into my wig wearing journey and I just bought the Ellen Wille Dance. I REALLY wanted Esprit but Dance was the same legnth of my bio hair so I took a chance. Boy am I glad I did! Esprit is next!!
I LOVE this, the lightness, the length, and small head friendly. I kept hearing the name but never saw it before now. I'll be shopping around for it once I figure out my color.
I have Esprit in champagne rooted and it is beautiful and probably the most comfortable cap I've worn. I also love that it has an extended nape because I do pull it back. However, because the price point is so high it should have a 100% hand tied cap.
Isn’t it so comfortable and light?! Yes, the price is a bit high 🥴 fully hand tied cap would make a bit more sense. But still- it doesn’t sway me away lol 🙊
Love this one too! I can see why it could be your new favourite. So versatile and natural! The style and how it looks on you reminds me of Julianne Hough 😊
You are so good at this. I learn so much. Currently, I have a halo 2 months old which I'm trying to maintain. I wear my wigs 12 hours a day and I wear fleeces and Jackets because I get cold from chemo. This with looks like a good length to avoid the snarling at the back of the neck. I have another quality wig but the volume on top makes it look wiggly quickly when I'm active running with the dogs. I share these challenges in case it gives you even more criteria on your wig reviews or wig tips videos
I bought this one thanks to this review! It'll be my 'take dog for walk, then go to pilates' wig. I also have the Simmer in the same colour which is my more done up wig. THANKS AMANDA!
I have 2 Esprit in Bernstein rooted. I bought the second one because the style is as comfortable as Jon Renau Lite wigs. I would like to order it in the Caramel Rooted but have been afraid it would be too gold. Do you feel like the color is a fairly accurate representation on your video? I wish Ellen Wille would add more light stands in the front. I would prefer less visible nots in the lace front. Thanks for all your fun videos!
You’re so welcome! I agree about adding lighter pieces in the front. ❤ and yes- I would say this is pretty accurate. It’s a little bit golden but cooled down with some subtle platinum highlights ❤
I'm in my 60's and I'm scared to start wearing a wig. Then I found your videos and I still haven't jumped into a wig but you make it look so easy-to-use. Thank you.
Amanda is right! I have been wearing wigs for over six years, and for me it still is a work in progress. The options for wigs are endless now. Chiquel has the option of a virtual consultation. I am hoping that they will have a virtual try-on available on their website soon. Good luck😊
I am in the same boat but just got this thanks to Amanda and I really love it because it doesn't look like a wig!!! Did you buy anything yet ( I waited almost a year I was so worries)
This is a beautiful wig! I have been trying to find the perfect low-density wig (I'm early in my journey). It looks like you found it for me! THANK YOU!
This is the 3rd Ellen Willie I’ve bought thanks to your wonderful reviews …it is my first hand tied so I can wait, my go to colour is normally light bernstien rooted so this caramel rooted has me excited to try my first lighter blonde colour ..I can’t wait!!! I have a few wigs that due to wrong colour for me I’ve never worn so virtually brand new I’m in Australia and would love to know what to do with them I keep the tags now but I don’t when I first started which was only last year. They are just sitting there in their boxes (all current styles)❤
Hi Amanda, Thanks for the review. I just got this wig in the mail today in Espresso rooted. I've been watching videos for styling tips. I Caught it on clearance. And I can just about pull the color off.. Like I'm a cousin of a vampire... But wow, I put a little it stays on the lace and I've been running around all day and it looks and feels wonderful. I love it!
This looks wonderful on you. Would love to get her it’s my preferred length and style but will likely be too small for me. Thanks for the review. Live your content.
I love this one! So cute :) I have to go check out if this comes in other colors! I am in Canada - I saw that Chiquel does ship to Canada - which is great! Have a lovely day :)
I have a lot to learn about wigs before I purchase - I was watching another one of your videos and I heard you say that wigs with perma tease are not as breathable - and may feel hot on your head (this is something that I don't want). I want a wig that is dense (I think that is what I am looking for) - something that I can wear down and put in a ponytail if I wanted to.
I accidentally fried my favorite piece yesterday and have been watching your videos for about 3 hours today! I’m trying to find a low density bob with some waves. I think I have decided on this Espirit (hope that’s correct). I think she’s my new hair. Thank you for your reviews! I’ve learned a lot!!
I had not considered this style prior to your video. I thought it was too short for me based on the stock photo, however this has now become my “wish list” piece! Thanks for the inspirational video!
I just found your channel and love listening to you. I am looking for my first wig and need a little wave or curl. I am older and used to shorter hair but I love it. I am 70. Do you think this is a younger style?Is there anything close to this in low density, maybe a little shorter
Hi There, I luv watching all of your videos as I also have a small head so I luv hearing how all of these beautiful wigs fit you, gives me a bit of an idea how they might fit me. Keep doing what you are doing. Thanku. 😊
This one looks so adorable on you and yes I could see why that might be 1 of your favorites I'm still a lover of the sumptuous strawberry kind of color with your skin tone but whatever you're comfortable in you look beautiful in no matter what 🥰⚘❣
Thank you I’ve got this one on the way ..Ellen Willie is my favourite it’s a trust thing, I made a lot of mistakes when I first started I went too dark also bought toppers when I didn’t have a clue what I was doing I need light density no permatease if I can help it …I found that this is is difficult or expensive to find in other brands I’m sure there are lots but I’m too scared to risk it.
Love this piece! I have a very long list of wigs I would like to purchase but just can’t decide which one should be my first wig purchase since I am new to wigs😂
Cute wig, love my Blues by EW. I am always concern that extended lace will scratch on top of my ears since I have a small face width to the point I am limited to finding eyeglasses. Most eyeglasses are too wide on my face.
Hi, Amanda. I purchased yhis wigs a couple of weeks ago after watching your video. However, I am really struggling with it because the front keeps flopping into my face, and it's really annoying. Since it's not hest friendly, I don't know how to train it to stay off my face😢
Hey Amanda, I'm new here. I have discoid Lupus which affects my hair I'm pretty much bald on the top of my head. Anyway in just a short time I have learned so much from you! I had no idea about mono, lace fronts rooted wigs. Also do ypu have any advice for me ,I have a flat head and wigs just seem to fall off my head in the back. I've tried a few but my measurements are a petite size also because of my flat head. Thank you Amanda!
@@chiquelwigs Recently bought Simmer Elite in Iced Latte Macchiato. Haven’t figured out how to style it yet, more hair than I am used to… much too hot to wear it now in Ontario🥵
Sorry, I do want to ask though - you talk a lot about perma tease (sp?) I hear that on many of your videos - If I want volume should I look for a wig with perma tease?
Unfiltered is more dense. Has permatease. Is heat friendly. Has a wefted cap. And is a bit shorter. But similar idea of style in terms of the messy wave look. ❤
Hi Amanda. I was wondering if you think this cap would fit someone with a 20" circumference? Most of all do you think this wig is less bulky than January? I've been watching your videos religiously trying to find a wig that might fit me. I was recently diagnosed with Alopecia and my hair is going away super fast. I have bought 2 wigs in the last month after watching your reviews, one was JR January the other I can't even remember the name but I'm not able to wear them because they are really puffy on me they just look huge and terrible.
Esprit is less dense than January. But it is an average fitting wig, so it may be a little big on you. Look at Ellen Wille Nola, it’s a petite/average fit.

Hi linda! I'm so glad you found me! What a sweet message to share with me. thank you so much! Sending you all the love and best wishes. :)
Sorry for your loss 😢
You make having alopecia inspiring. I've been struggling with alopecia but when I watch your videos, I know that I can be confident in myself.
Aw thank you so much for saying my that! Alopecia and wig wearing isn’t so bad 😉 ❤
I love this wig and need low density! Thanks for featuring Esprit!
Very cute!

Just ordered it from Chiquel in Bernstein rooted! Love love love!!!

It looks stunning on you! The colour is so pretty too. The style is very natural looking. Such versatility is awesome.
Thank you so much! And yes! So natural ❤
Great review! Looks so natural on you!
This piece looks great on you! 🙂 I’m going to consider this wig for summer 😊
Thank you! 😊 and yes! Nice and light for the summer! ☀️
Love the casual, fun style. Searching for low density wigs😊
This colour is really pretty! ❤
I think so too!!❤❤
Your personality is precious. Im interested in this wig for summer. Love low density wigs without permeates

I absolutely love it. Wish I could put on a blonde shade vs brunnette according to my skin tone and facial features.It looks great on you, Amanda.
Thank you! You can definitely change it up if you feel comfortable doing it!
I'm in my 60's and I'm scared to start wearing a wig. Then I found your videos and I still haven't jumped into a wig but you make it look so easy-to-use. Thank you.
Awww…take your time. Best way to start is with a wig that is similar to your own in style and color, so it won’t be a shock when you put it on. 😊

It’s so good ❤❤❤
I love this so much! I’ve never tried Ellen Wille. This one I might try especially since it is hand tied!
This style is so great that I can’t decide on a color!
Get them all!! 😂😂😜 lol just kidding. It is definitely a tough decision to make!!
You are the cutest..Thanks for all your reviews & your honesty ❤

I´m in love with her too!
Are the machine made wigs scratchy to your head? Do you try to stay with the hand tied? I have never had one of those. I have partial hair loss.
Sorry, I do want to ask though - you talk a lot about perma tease (sp?) I hear that on many of your videos - If I want volume should I look for a wig with perma tease?
Yes....full and bushy...
@@victoriavancartier7379 Thank you :)
I LOVE this wig and need to try it!
Yes! Permatease is like built in volume in a wig. It's almost like backcombing on your own natural hair to create more lift. But its permanent.
You look beautiful 😊
Does this compare to Unfiltered by Racquel Welch?
Unfiltered is more dense. Has permatease. Is heat friendly. Has a wefted cap. And is a bit shorter. But similar idea of style in terms of the messy wave look. ❤
Love this was just telling my husband I needed a shorter wig after my double mastectomy surgery 10/23
This is a perfect option!❤❤ Sending you all the love ❤
Hi Amanda. I was wondering if you think this cap would fit someone with a 20" circumference? Most of all do you think this wig is less bulky than January?

Esprit is less dense than January. But it is an average fitting wig, so it may be a little big on you. Look at Ellen Wille Nola, it’s a petite/average fit.
Hair looks so natural not like other regular synthetic fibers.
@@mariesmith1616 it is a very natural looking wig!
Can you cut wispy bangs?
you bet!
