I've gotten many comments about the 'wigginess' of the wigs on us. I should have mentioned that these are right out of the box (the tags are still on them). We didn't style them, because the focus was on the color. I realize now how distracting that is for some of you. I'll fix that in the future. Sorry about that.💕
First off not to mention a great video .... your daughter is simply stunning. Looks so much like her mama. Your studio is incredible ..... that fireplace and wallpaper ....swoon.
Frannie-I think the hi lights also make the difference. Especially around the face! The darker one seems to wash your skin out on camera! What a fabulous video!!!
How precious you both are. Eliana is a natural in front of the camera. I'm a cool girl too w/pink undertones. I'm a pink girl w/everything. House is full of that color too. Happy Birthday hubby. Do I smell cake? Love & Blessings Frannie (NorCal.)
Years ago I had my color palette done and found I am a Spring, which is warm tone. It was fun to take the color chart to my closet and found that my favorite outfits on me fell color-wise in my chart! I also noticed Eliana wears silver earrings and Frannie wears gold. Cool tones look better in silver and warm tones in gold. All this to say, it will help you if you know your color palette. Also, I'm so sad that I am unable to come to the Estetica party! Have fun!!!!🌻
You’re both adorable. I learned that sometimes one can be surprised…I am very cool complected, but I discovered that if I went very ash with a wig, I looked washed out and drab. I’m 59, which is probably part of it. Anyway, I don’t go true warm blonde, but I do go “brighter”, as in Butterbeer Blonde. Much better.
I would love to come to your event, but I have to be at a wedding reception during that time. It sounds like a lot of fun. I hope you have another one.
It may have been the camera but I thought your skin brought out different colors in the wigs. The 17/23/R8 brought out the pink in your daughters complexion. And the highlights in the coolest ash brown stood out next to Frankie’s warmer skin tone. I love trying new wig colors!
Studio looks gorgeous! Great video. I think your daughter’s neck is longer and she has a slim face. Amazing how the same wig looks so different on two people. Like your daughter, I am a cool undertone and if I get a very light blond wig that doesn’t have highlights, I am very washed out!
Most of the ones Eliana tried on were way too full for her face. I liked the last one on her, but if it were a little darker, it would look better. She is a beautiful young lady! She looks just like her mother! I had fun with this. Maybe you should do this after getting a shipment. Your new studio is so beautiful. The wall paper really looks so great. The fireplace will come in handy this winter. Thanks for the video.
Frannie I like Katie and Pixie Light on you. That would be the colors I would wear, but I think that is my bio color. Since I am wearing wigs I have been going lighter red/ brown or hazelnut but my kids like me darker because that is what they are use too. I like the lighter shades better on me now then before I started wearing wigs. It's Amazing how the color of your hair changes me. I think I am neutral but I like a little warmer shades makes my brown eyes look more honey.
I would like to get a color chart recommendation. I think my natural coloring combination contradicts the charts. I skin tone is definitely warm/yellow tones. I have super dark brown eyes. They almost look black. My natural hair color when I was young was dark as brown with red highlights. I currently have a cool gray hair color with lots of white. If you look really closely at my hair, it looks mostly white with black strands running through it and some dark gray. What colors probably look good on me. I get compliments on my natural gray hair color.
Interesting, it definitely sounds like you had a warmer color when you were younger, but now your hair is cooler in color. Without seeing a picture of you, it is difficult to tell...but there are colors that have both cool and warm tones in them (RW SS Biscuit, for example). I wonder how those would look on you. Have you ever tried that color? You may a color that incorporates darker colors, though. I would recommend having a free consultation with my resident stylist, V. There is no obligation to buy anything, and she is amazing with color. If you'd like to schedule an appointment, you can email her at v@frannieshair.com. Tell her I sent you.💕
Love mum and daughter ( and son) Matt,I lost your contact Matt.kind regards .Happy 60th Birthday Hubby.60 was my most active time….enjoy! The new 40.🎉Mary 🇬🇧 xx
Yes, definitely. I wear cooler color makeup (pinks mostly) when wearing cool wigs and warmer makeup (more peachy) when I wear warmer color wigs. Great question!💕
I agree, Lorena. And if we styled them, they would have looked better. The video was more about color. I notice people commented on the wigginess...next time, I'll style anyway.😁💕
You girls need to swap chairs bc forgetting your skin tones, the wigs look like completely different colors probably due to lighting being different on each chair. Frankie, watch this video so you can see. Your daughter has light coming in through the window. Her wig always pops of colors but yours looks dull and all one dull color. When you just did a close up, they looked the same.Daughter is sitting in the winning chair. You’re both beautiful and I love watching . Please don’t put gray wigs on either one of you. Cool champagne blond looks ridiculous
I think this analysis would have been better with an older woman. All the wigs were too much hair on your daughter. She needs very low density, which distracted me from noticing the color. Jmo
Color is so much more complicated than I first realised. I made the mistake for a long time of thinking that the color clothing I looked best in equated to what color hair I should wear. I had been color coded as looking best in mid range somewhat murky cool colors eg not bright lipstick pink or pale pink but a raspberry pink which is neither pale nor bright. Yet when I wore mid range cool color hair it looked dire on me. That’s when it clicked that while mid range colors were best in hair, I needed some bright warm gold highlights to lift and provide contrast to my pale sallow skin. Contrast is the key to it all. It’s why people like me need dark roots on our lighter wigs and warm highlights mixed with cool on a warmer base. Gosh it’s complicated and makes buying on line so difficult. My best color so far is Estetica 12/26RT4 but that doesn’t look the same in every wig. 😩😩😩

I'm so glad you liked it! I will tell Eliana what you said...she will love it. Thank you so much for watching, Myra!😘
You both are such a lovely mother-daughter couple. You look the same, amazing 💐
Thank you so much!😘
Loved you doing this together. This is a great format
Thank you! We enjoyed filming it together too. Thanks so much for watching!💕
Your videos make me do happy it’s like bring at a friends kitchen drinking coffee or tea while working snd chatting I ❤your videos
I'm so glad you enjoy them, Mary!😘
What a fun yet educational video. As always thank you Frannie. Great to meet your beautiful daughter
Thank you, Jo! I'm so glad you liked it. It's fun working with my daughter!❤️
@@FranniesHair I lived all your videos, particularly when you have your family with you
You can definitely tell that Eliana is your daughter! You're both beautiful.
Thank you so much!💕
I wish i lived close enough to attend!
Me too!
I wish you did too!💕
Awww your daughter is a cutie pie. Fun video!
Thank you so much! I think so too.❤️
Frannie-I think the hi lights also make the difference. Especially around the face! The darker one seems to wash your skin out on camera! What a fabulous video!!!
Thank you, Patti! Great point! You always have great feedback.😘
I really enjoyed getting to see your daughter!! ❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!💕

Love & Blessings Frannie (NorCal.)
Thank you so much, Stephanie! Yes, that was apple cake you smelled...his favorite.😁😘
I recommend taking pictures and videos of yourself wearing new colors and styles to see what looks best.
This was fun!
xoxo Joan
Great idea!💡💕
I like that you have the notes on your website about which are cool and warm tones
I'm so glad you like it! It took a bit of work, but we are hoping it will be helpful!💕

I agree...I'm a Spring also...with an Autumn influence. I wish you could come too!💕
Great video! Thanks Ladies.
Thank you, Pamela!💕
No, it was so lovely to watch🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!💕
Great video! Loved seeing Ana back on the channel!
Me too!❤️
This was so helpful. Thank you both!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thank you so much for watching!😘

Yes, it's those details that can make all the difference! Thank you for watching!💕
you are both so beautiful! 😍
Thank you so much, Barbara!😘
I would love to come to your event, but I have to be at a wedding reception during that time. It sounds like a lot of fun. I hope you have another one.
If all goes well, I hope to have another one. I'm sorry you couldn't make this one. Enjoy the wedding!💕
Thanks for the video. Glad you are covering these sources.
My pleasure! Thank you for watching!😘
It may have been the camera but I thought your skin brought out different colors in the wigs. The 17/23/R8 brought out the pink in your daughters complexion. And the highlights in the coolest ash brown stood out next to Frankie’s warmer skin tone. I love trying new wig colors!
I agree...the skin definitely does bring out the different colors. There is so much to choosing a color. Thanks so much for watching, Julie!💕
I ❤ the video. I love talking about color tones, highlights, skin tones. I would ❤❤❤ to go to the Wig show.
That would be great! Are you nearby?
Wonderful wig chat !❤
Thank you, Karen!💕
Studio looks gorgeous! Great video. I think your daughter’s neck is longer and she has a slim face. Amazing how the same wig looks so different on two people. Like your daughter, I am a cool undertone and if I get a very light blond wig that doesn’t have highlights, I am very washed out!
Thank you! Yes, so interesting to see how washed out she looked in the more monotone cool colored wig.💕
She is so beautiful. Looks a lot like you.
Aw, thank you, Sharon!😘
Most of the ones Eliana tried on were way too full for her face. I liked the last one on her, but if it were a little darker, it would look better.

Thank you, Teena! I also think if we had styled the wigs, it would have helped. I was focused on the color aspect. Thank you so much for watching!💕😘

So true, Gina. And the more you wear wigs, the more colors you are willing to try.😁😘

Thank you, Mary! I like that...the new 40.😁😘
I'm 5'3" so I understand.
My daughter and I took a picture together at church and I was shorter we were always the same height
Lol...it happens to the best of us!🤣
Does changing your makeup also allow you to wear different colors?
Yes, definitely. I wear cooler color makeup (pinks mostly) when wearing cool wigs and warmer makeup (more peachy) when I wear warmer color wigs. Great question!💕
I wanted to add the color Sunflower to my collection; however, it didn't work with my very cool skin tone as it showed very yellow on me.
Yes, it does have a lot of yellow in it.💕
I think your daughter looks better in the blonde colors.
Sorry, but it's 40 °C here and I can't unsee the fire 😅
Lol...the funny thing is that I was actually cold...my husband loves air conditioning, and I could totally live without it.🤣
I think Eliana has a smaller head or face than you. I agree with the previous notation that most the wigs overpower her.
Yes, and especially because we didn't style them. We were just focusing on color. Thanks so much for watching!💕
Eliana needs to be in a lower density wig. The last one, although maybe not the exactly right color was spot on in density.
I agree. And it would help if we styled the wigs. We didn't, because we were really focusing on color.💕
Aliana you look good in wigs that are lightweight because your face is small
I agree, Lorena. And if we styled them, they would have looked better. The video was more about color. I notice people commented on the wigginess...next time, I'll style anyway.😁💕
Drink more water to hydrate your cartilage, exercise to strengthen your core, and schedule your doctor appointments in the morning to be taller.
I love the last piece of advice...funny...my appointment was at night!😁
I didn’t write Frankie but my spell check won’t let me write your name
No worries, Gretchen. Frankie is one of my nicknames anyway. I'm named after my grandfather Frank.😁

Great feedback, Gretchen! I'm taking the 'money seat' for my next video.🤣
I think this analysis would have been better with an older woman. All the wigs were too much hair on your daughter. She needs very low density, which distracted me from noticing the color. Jmo
I think so too. Maybe because she has a full head of hair under the wigs?
Thank you for the feedback. And thank you for watching!💕

Why do the wigs look so wiggie on you guys
Because we weren't styling them. It was all about color. They were right out of the box. The tags were still on them. Thank you for watching.💕
Chloe is not best on either of you.
I think the color played a big part in that.💕
