I Love this Wig, but I agree there are lots of Similar Wigs. I so enjoy your Styling Segment. And I did notice your parting Difference. Appreciate you Discussing the Elephants in the Room! You are So Thorough. God Bless you Beautiful Lady, Hugs by the Bushel 😙💖💐
👍👍👍👍👍 LOVE LOVE LOVE her!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Great video as usual my friend!!!! Your revues are so helpful and informative because you spend a lot of time doing your homework on every piece beforehand. Some people may not realize how much tie you invest in doing the reviews and all the time and work that goes into editing every review before you ever post it. You do it because you truly want to be a help to people for no other reason than because you are so authentic and your love for people and sincere desire to help people. Love you my sweet beautiful friend!!!!! 😘
Really thorough review, Taz. There's absolutely nothing negative or derogatory about openly addressing genuine issues with tact and objectivity. Great info today, handled professionally, as always. Looking fab in your summery outfit. So jealous.. I'm freezing over here! lol Hope you're well 🤗 xox
Thank you Mysta! I wish I could say with confidence that this cap runs avg/large as is the case on my particular unit.. but I always expect variances from piece to piece. The fact there are NO OPTIONS for reds/auburns is a bit of a head-scratcher... maybe they will add later if its popular enough. Enjoy your weekend! XOXO
Great video, and so gorgeous! I love how transparent you are, your honesty and willingness to address what you know your viewers are thinking is what makes you one of, if not THE, best wig mentor out there. Its awesome you do the comparisons, especially similar colors from different brands. Hoping to see what other brand colors are comparable to Belle Tress's Mocha with Cream. I LOVE the color, its my current go-to, but also hoping to branch out to some other brand styles while keeping the color more consistent because I am not yet where I admit its a wig, especially at work. 😬
Well … I am a proud owner of this beautiful wig! Love it! And … ladies … that $616 … dropped to … 450.00! Did not expect that! I love a cheaper price … but if you really love some and it possible to get it … I do. Thank you TAZ! 🥰⭐️❤️❣️
So glad you linked this video for me. Agree with you this is a unique application of pearl blonde rooted. The one a purchased was not nearly as bright and light as your Eclat. I appreciate your honest and balanced discussion on the elephants in the room. Very informative and helpful!
Thank you so much! Yes, the realism is simply amazing! And with a few similar high quality hand tied styles with more affordable price tags, I am scratching my head too. Have a wonderful weekend! XOXO
I'm Really Loving This One Sweet Friend!! The Color is Beautiful!! You Look Just Stunning in Her!! Thank You for a Perfect Review as Always!! Love and Hugs!! XOXOXO
Hi Taz, super helpful video and comparison comments! Thanks for the in depth analysis! Would you please let us know what wig is E? Thanks for all you do to help the community out!
Really pretty wig and thanks so much for comparing price points for this wig and RW Editors Pick Elite. Love the curl pattern on both, this is my "Goldilocks" curl pattern for me, not too little, not too much, just right. Lol. Beautiful wig and she's gorgeous on you Taz. Have a great day and rest of your weekend. 💕
I love the lace front because it has more of the darker hair mixed in. Great review, and I do think Ellen Wille is frequently more expensive than similar styles by other manufacturers. She just has one color I can’t seem to find a match for by other companies. Thanks for your review!
thanks for such an honest review. I thank you for always including a great description of fit. It is so depressing that wigs are getting bigger and bigger.
So it's not just me..lol! They ARE getting bigger and bigger.. brands I used to count on for decent fitting caps like Ellen Wille, Rene Of Paris, Amore and Tressallure.. all getting bigger in size. XOXO
Wow! This looks exactly like RW Editor's pick for sure. I think with this price point this will not good for some. Yes everything had gone up. I love RW Editor's pick I have 2 now. I want so many wig's right now. I just ordered 2 yesterday Bell tress I believe they will ship by end if the month as I did the chat with them. I can't wait.😍 Beautiful Taz as always great review. Have a fun weekend.💕
Taz, Thank you so very much. I love it. I've been trying copies of the ones I liked from Amazon. I never liked the feel of them. The cap is painful. I put this on and I see how soft and comfortable this is. You look better in it but I haven't see you not look great in anything! Robin
Thank you, Taz, for such an honest review on the product and price points. You broached several issues with extreme tact and grace. Also, I must comment on your shoes. You seem to be a fan of wedges, as am I. Due to a severe car accident that broke both my lower extremities in multiple places, I can ONLY wear wedge shoes. So, when I see someone frequently wear wedges, I tend to get all googly-eyed. So, besides great wigs, you also have wonderful shoes :)
Thank you for the comments! Sorry you had to experience that, but at least you can still wear your wedges...my favorite! I am sure my achilles has adapted to the wedge because it's hard for me to wear flats now. Blessings! XOOX
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET FYI, I’m a retired nurse and read a plethora of medical journals. Back in 2019, I read an article by a podiatrist who said that the best shoes for women to wear are WEDGES 🥳🎉💖. Flats and spiky heels aren’t good for feet, legs, or back. Who knew we’d be “medically fashionable?!?!” 🙏🏼♥️
I had to look twice!!! I was sure you would change wigs because I thought EDITOR"S PICK! I think it's beautiful on you but you rock those styles!!! Would I get that over EP at that price???Nooooo Taz...where did you get that blouse?! I love the color and drape of it!!! Also how you matched your eye shadow! :) I will pass on Eclat personally but I think you should keep yours!!! You are right though, everything it going UP! I've been looking for a new car and the two I want people are actually paying a few thousand over the list price!!! xoxoxo
HI dear Betzie! This one is really in my wheelhouse in terms of my favorite length and curl.. much like 2 of my all time faves RW Editors Pick and JR Julianne😉😉😉 Hard to justify the price when similar handtied styles are more affordable. Thank you on the blouse.. I LOVE pinks and purples! I got this blouse during a thrift excursion.. I find the best stuff! I'm enjoying my new Julianne so much! Much love and hugs! XOXO
"Make friends with your curls", yep, you sure have to do that! Good way to put it. I originally missed that this was heat friendly. It is a lovely style and the color surely does look like Shaded Biscuit. As far as price, I simply cannot afford this one, to be honest, much as I like the look of it. Anyone who can afford it will be happy to have one of these, I am sure. Retailers have to price it as the manufacturer sets it of course. I have always felt that EW priced its units higher than other comparable styles in other brands. JMHO. Sadly, though cost of goods is going up, income is not. It *is* one of the most attractive styles I have seen from EW in quite some time, I must say, but then, I love EP though I have not had one yet. The color choices are a bit skimpy, as you say. I wish EW would concentrate on adding colors, not new styles! Thanks for the review. It's gorgeous on you, of course. ~Cynthia
I agree on all accounts! THIS one is the best EW style I've seen in awhile..a welcome departure from so many their pixies that look so much alike...lol. Of course I am biased towards this curl and length! Price is a bit of a mystery.. I cannot find anything to justify it really. NO complaints, just hoping it's not priced out of reach! Thank you for stopping by.. always love seeing you! XOXO
Dear Taz, I’ve put off asking this question for fear of sounding stupid but, I just can’t wait any longer….. what little hair I have is being painfully ripped out every time I wear a wig! I use wig tape to secure my wigs because that’s what I’ve had the most secure success with, and I CANNOT afford to go lax on security since I live in an often windy and hot/humid climate, plus I’m terrified of slippage. First I wear a stocking-type cap over my hair, then a wig grip(which doesn’t reeeally help me as greatly as a lot of other people say - grip), and finally, I attach wig tape around the perimeter of my forehead, sides, and back near the occipital bone. The problem is: since I’m placing the tape around the edges of my hairline (half on/half off the skin and hair), when I go to remove that tape it RIPS MY HAIR TO PIECES, or, I end up having to CUT the tape OUT of my hair/ head!!! Some places are paper thin with hair and it’s AWFUL. But, I don’t understand WHERE on the head to place all that tape because if I place it all down on my skin ( especially for short wig styles & in the front where there is lace) , it will be in plain sight of everybody. What am I doing wrong? WHERE does one place tape around one’s head? ** I thought about maybe placing it ONTOP OF my stocking wig cap, however I thought to myself: What good would taping a wig to a cap be in the event that cap were to slide back or off your head?? The wig and everything would slide off with the cap! Don’t you have to tape the wig directly to your HEAD?? P. S. I’ve tried It Stays before but it doesn’t hold in the back and it’s too hot & humid where I live to trust it 2/3 out of the year. I live in Texas. Please help tell me where to place the tape so I don’t have to rip out my hair. I’ve tried using warm water to remove it but that only helps partially part of the time. Thx, Julie
Aww, hi Julie! I am so very sorry I am not the best one to ask about wig tape. I have no experience with it. Have you been to the Wig Studio 1 Wig & Topper Support Group on Facebook? This is exactly the kind of help that ladies get.. there are many members and many have these types of questions. www.wigstudio1.com/products/harper-wig-by-henry-margu?_pos=1&_sid=92513b5e3&_ss=r Love and luck! XOXO
You look GORGOIS! I love the color, on my phone's 5G monitor, it appears to be somewhere between SHADED BISCUIT & PALM SPRINGS BLONDE. MAYBE BECAUSE THE HILIGHTED AREA APPEARS BRIGHTER & QUITE FLATTERING. "ECLAT" brings the BEST up-lighting to your BEAUTIFUL face! I do also see the jair falls into a more random curl pattern, making it naturally pretty. Wonderfully candid review as always...It is unfortunately out of my reach, but I do want to try ELLEN WILLE wigs sometime. Looks like you have another favorite.
Thank you for the lovely comments Lauren! And I agree... its a bit brighter than SS Biscuit, I hope to do a comparison very soon. Many thanks and blessings! XOXO
So pretty. I wish They would have pearl Blonde without the roots. I am so over the black roots. I’m naturally blonde it doesn’t work. Blondes exist. So frustrating. Love your video was always dear Taz. ❤️
Very pretty. Could the fibers being HD make the difference in the color? Thank you for hitting all the “elephants”, the lack of color variety with Ellen Wille is a real issue. I own several EW styles (more than any other) but I’m moving back towards other brands because I’m transitioning from medium brunette and she doesn’t have great in between colors. Idk what she’s doing on her sizing either. I’m afraid the price on this one has knocked it way out of my ball park. LOL But it’s gorgeous.
Great commentary, thank you Rachel! The HD fiber may have something to do with the color... Jon Renau HD fibers are much different in terms of color. Soo pricey. I am not sure it will survive against the competition, but I hope I'm wrong! XOXO
You look dazzling in Eclat! The price is a turn off for me. Even with the discount I’d choose Editor’s Pick . When I lived in Geneva! Switzerland I used to drive by a salon called Eclat des Nations or something, I never did know what Eclat meant lol. Enjoy your weekend 💕
Do you think this is a little bit brighter than Shaded The Biscuit on the Style? I have this color on drive and I love it. I’ve noticed that some shaded biscuit shades have been darker and I like the brighter. I know they do the color application based on the style but I’m all about light and bright and neutral to ash blonde. I love EW‘s heat defiant fibers.
She's a beauty! Nice to see this style modeled, but that's as far as I will ever go with Eclat! Good grief, charging that much for a wig that is not human hair seems almost unethical. One also needs to factor in that the fibers being HD will not last as long as regular synthetic. Oh, well. She is pretty.
I'm so happy that you addressed the elephant 🐘 & you did it with so much class & discretion 🥰 I think it's a copyright issue myself but like you, I think competition is good otherwise 😉
It's beautiful. But women on a budget deserve natural looking wigs too. We shouldn't have to look at these pieces longingly knowing we can never afford it. Companies need to realize this.
Taz: Very detailed review. I really like Eclat but I need a silver or gray color. In your opinion, what are some similar styles I could look at that would be in silver tones (or gray)? Any brand would be fine. One more question, what wig style is on head H? Thank you, 🦊
Any of the grays on Raquel Welch's Editors Pick would great! H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde.. featured in this video ruclips.net/video/a6UzY96dtR4/видео.html XOXO
Gosh! It just doesn’t seem right for them to push the prices up so much when so many people have been out of work and have accumulated a lot of debt because of it. I can tell you without a doubt, it will be a long time before I’ll ever be willing or even able to spend over $400 for a wig!! Especially something that has only a 6 month shelf life at best. 😟
Thanks for your thoughts Suzanne! Thankfully there are plenty of options with better price points. I am NEVER angry at retailers for their prices..they are not forcing us to buy them.. it's our decision as it should always be. This one will definitely have a narrow audience for the cost and color options. XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET well he truth is, if I could spend freely.....there are at least another 50 or so wigs I’d love to add to my repertoire. Most of them are styles and colors that YOU have sold me on! 🤣🤣🤣. But truly, I am very happy with the ones I have. It is SO MUCH FUN to see new style and colors 💋 LOVE you videos. Thank you so much!
Hi Taz! What a beautiful wig! Looks so natural on you. My head is small like yours. I can't feel confident if the wig is big on me. I will pay the price, if it fits well and I can be confident. I don't know why all brands can't ALWAYS offer petite and average. Many designer clothing lines do !! They need to listen to the ones who wear them. Butter their bread. Thank you for your honesty. It's always appreciated. So, if I wanted the best fit. Editors pick or this one, is there any difference at all? Money aside. Which would you invest in? Does EW heat friendly last longer than RW heat fiber? Thank you!! 😘
I think the heat friendly fiber from both brands are very similar in terms of longevity. I get the best fit from this piece.. Raquel Welch runs very large on me. Hope this helps! XOXO
Thank you for your thoroughness. I was astounded at the price point (high, to me) on Ellen Wille, in general. I can't afford to buy any of these wigs, I love learning about them. What wig is C in the background?
In addition to this not being available in reds, it's not available in silvers/greys. EW fits me wonderfully but the lack of color choices is an issue. I've also noticed that of the few silvers/greys offered by EW, it is nearly always in a very short style, which leaves out a large segment of ladies who want medium or longer length wigs.
H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde.. I use Simply Stylin Light Silicon Silk Spray on my wigs.. code TAZ = 25% off. www.simplystylinhair.com/
I have my ipad camera set up in front of a ring light, flanked by 2 soft boxes pointed at me.. and 2 more soft boxes pointed towards the wig stands behind me.. nothing too fancy. Thanks for the interest!! XOXO
I realize this is from some time ago, but this piece was recommended for me to check out. While I’m here, can you tell me what m is? Thank you… love this review as well.
I started by selecting more affordable styles to get to know my preferences and get used to the feeling of wearing a wig. But we’re each on our own journey. Thanks for the comments and best wishes to you! 😍😍😍
Thank you for sharing Angela!! I love getting feedback like this because it points out to buyers that there are variances in curl pattern from piece to piece and what to expect! XOXO
I buy my wigs from WigStudio1.com. Ellen Wille is an automatic 30% off at checkout. Here is the link www.wigstudio1.com/products/eclat-wig-by-ellen-wille?_pos=1&_sid=46d538353&_ss=r
Beer budget/ Champagne taste. 600.plus ouch 😅 it better chauffeur me around town and clean my house for me at that price 😝 in the wise words of Hall & Oates: I can’t go for that! Nooo no can do!
Thanks for having a light, fun attitude towards it..lol! Some wigs are fun to look at, but have a more narrow pool of buyers for price, color options, fit, etc.. XOXO
I Love this Wig, but I agree there are lots of Similar Wigs. I so enjoy your Styling Segment. And I did notice your parting Difference. Appreciate you Discussing the Elephants in the Room! You are So Thorough. God Bless you Beautiful Lady, Hugs by the Bushel 😙💖💐

Really appreciate the information you give on these pieces. Especially how they fit you.
Thank you for the feedback!! I just wish there was more consistency.. it would help us consumers so much! XOXO
Hi Taz, I'm in love with new style by EW but too bad on the limited colors and the cap size. You look amazing in her. Have a great weekend. XOXO ❤
Thank you Mysta! I wish I could say with confidence that this cap runs avg/large as is the case on my particular unit.. but I always expect variances from piece to piece.

Yay! Another style in my favorite color, Pearl blonde rooted! Looks gorgeous on you Taz!
It's pretty, Taz, & while you often get what you pay for, my heart goes out to people who *have to* wear wigs. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY

So pretty. I wish They would have pearl Blonde without the roots. I am so over the black roots. I’m naturally blonde it doesn’t work. Blondes exist. So frustrating. Love your video was always dear Taz. ❤️
💛💛💛
I agree - dark roots feel all wrong if you're a natural blonde.
Love this! Yet again you look like the incredible Debbie Harry. Have to say that I loved your tip more than the wig - love the color$ Its so cute!
I'll take that compliment, thank you Kristine! XOXO
Very pretty. Could the fibers being HD make the difference in the color? Thank you for hitting all the “elephants”, the lack of color variety with Ellen Wille is a real issue. I own several EW styles (more than any other) but I’m moving back towards other brands because I’m transitioning from medium brunette and she doesn’t have great in between colors. Idk what she’s doing on her sizing either. I’m afraid the price on this one has knocked it way out of my ball park. LOL But it’s gorgeous.
Great commentary, thank you Rachel! The HD fiber may have something to do with the color... Jon Renau HD fibers are much different in terms of color. Soo pricey. I am not sure it will survive against the competition, but I hope I'm wrong! XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET I totally agree Taz!
Beautiful, Taz 💜
💜💜💜
Outstanding review - thank you!
I love the wig labeled "H". If you know off hand, what is it? Thanks Taz!
Hi there Patricia! H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET THANK YOU!!
(Lynda here) this is beautiful!! Everything has gone up in price, so I will start saving!! 🌹
You look dazzling in Eclat! The price is a turn off for me. Even with the discount I’d choose Editor’s Pick . When I lived in Geneva! Switzerland I used to drive by a salon called Eclat des Nations or something, I never did know what Eclat meant lol. Enjoy your weekend 💕
LOVE that you shared this! Thank you for watching! XOXO
Well, this wig just looks outstanding ! I’m in love.
Wow…that lace front is amazing!
Do you think this is a little bit brighter than Shaded The Biscuit on the Style? I have this color on drive and I love it. I’ve noticed that some shaded biscuit shades have been darker and I like the brighter. I know they do the color application based on the style but I’m all about light and bright and neutral to ash blonde. I love EW‘s heat defiant fibers.
Hi Christina! YES - this PBR is a bit brighter than the SS Biscuit. We have similar taste.. I LOVE this too! 💜💜💜
She's a beauty! Nice to see this style modeled, but that's as far as I will ever go with Eclat! Good grief, charging that much for a wig that is not human hair seems almost unethical. One also needs to factor in that the fibers being HD will not last as long as regular synthetic. Oh, well. She is pretty.
Hello! There are wigs for all budgets and tastes..we are so blessed to have all these options! XOXO
I'm so happy that you addressed the elephant 🐘 & you did it with so much class & discretion 🥰 I think it's a copyright issue myself but like you, I think competition is good otherwise 😉
Looks very pretty on you Taz❣️ Too much hair for me...
Thank you for clearing all these elephants in the room I agree with you
Beautiful wig and great video…the purple is stunning on you ..I know you said you got it at a sale but could you share what brand it is? Love love it.
The brand on the tag says "Velvet Heart" 💜💜💜
it looked like some wispy shorter bang hairs at the front when. you were styling it Taz. Is that right?
I do think there is a lighter density towards the front giving a wispier look! XOXO
It's beautiful. But women on a budget deserve natural looking wigs too. We shouldn't have to look at these pieces longingly knowing we can never afford it. Companies need to realize this.
Thanks for the comments! I think we can find nice wigs in just about every price range.. so many options available! XOXO
Taz: Very detailed review. I really like Eclat but I need a silver or gray color. In your opinion, what are some similar styles I could look at that would be in silver tones (or gray)? Any brand would be fine. One more question, what wig style is on head H? Thank you, 🦊
Any of the grays on Raquel Welch's Editors Pick would great! H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde.. featured in this video ruclips.net/video/a6UzY96dtR4/видео.html XOXO
Cute!💜
💜💜💜
Gosh! It just doesn’t seem right for them to push the prices up so much when so many people have been out of work and have accumulated a lot of debt because of it. I can tell you without a doubt, it will be a long time before I’ll ever be willing or even able to spend over $400 for a wig!! Especially something that has only a 6 month shelf life at best. 😟
Thanks for your thoughts Suzanne! Thankfully there are plenty of options with better price points. I am NEVER angry at retailers for their prices..they are not forcing us to buy them.. it's our decision as it should always be. This one will definitely have a narrow audience for the cost and color options. XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET well he truth is, if I could spend freely.....there are at least another 50 or so wigs I’d love to add to my repertoire. Most of them are styles and colors that YOU have sold me on! 🤣🤣🤣. But truly, I am very happy with the ones I have. It is SO MUCH FUN to see new style and colors 💋 LOVE you videos. Thank you so much!
Wig prices are gettin ridiculous. Really. Thats why i buy paula young wigs. They are very budget friendly and beautiful enuff for me. All i need. 🤗
We are so blessed with so many options with wigs.. something for every preference and budget! XOXO
Looks exactly like editor’s pick!
😉😉😉
Hi Taz! What a beautiful wig! Looks so natural on you. My head is small like yours. I can't feel confident if the wig is big on me. I will pay the price, if it fits well and I can be confident. I don't know why all brands can't ALWAYS offer petite and average. Many designer clothing lines do !! They need to listen to the ones who wear them. Butter their bread.
Thank you for your honesty. It's always appreciated. So, if I wanted the best fit. Editors pick or this one, is there any difference at all? Money aside. Which would you invest in? Does EW heat friendly last longer than RW heat fiber? Thank you!! 😘
I think the heat friendly fiber from both brands are very similar in terms of longevity. I get the best fit from this piece.. Raquel Welch runs very large on me. Hope this helps! XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET thanks so much! I think I may give this a try. You're the best! 😘
Thank you for your thoroughness. I was astounded at the price point (high, to me) on Ellen Wille, in general. I can't afford to buy any of these wigs, I love learning about them. What wig is C in the background?
Hello! C is ruclips.net/video/1ZuIOUh4iMQ/видео.html XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET thanks 💜
In addition to this not being available in reds, it's not available in silvers/greys. EW fits me wonderfully but the lack of color choices is an issue. I've also noticed that of the few silvers/greys offered by EW, it is nearly always in a very short style, which leaves out a large segment of ladies who want medium or longer length wigs.
Thanks for the comments! XOXO
EW also does not have a neutral/cool brunette. There is a huge market for blonde obviously
Cute, but I’d probably go for RW! Hey Taz what wig is letter H on your mannequin?
Hi Megan!! H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde. Have a great evening! XOXO
Hi Taz, would you happen to know which wig and color is on Mannequin H? Also what does silicon spray do for wigs?
H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde.. I use Simply Stylin Light Silicon Silk Spray on my wigs.. code TAZ = 25% off. www.simplystylinhair.com/
Hi Taz, any chance you would know which wigs are letter B and D? Please be big head friendly 😁🤣😁
B is Belle Tress Bellissima in Cream Soda Blonde in average cap size and D is Jon Renau Ignite in 22F16 average cap:-) XOXO
Thank you so very much!!!! You are awesome!
Would love to see your setup, the other side of the camera so to speak. The kind of lighting, etc.
I have my ipad camera set up in front of a ring light, flanked by 2 soft boxes pointed at me.. and 2 more soft boxes pointed towards the wig stands behind me.. nothing too fancy. Thanks for the interest!! XOXO
I realize this is from some time ago, but this piece was recommended for me to check out. While I’m here, can you tell me what m is? Thank you… love this review as well.
M is ruclips.net/video/EiUGtjyt2yQ/видео.html XOXO
I am new to your channel. Do you only review wigs or do you also review toppers?
Welcome Sheri! I only review wigs at this time:-)
Could you tell me the name of the wig with the letter F.
Thank you
F is ruclips.net/video/FxVaklsUcXs/видео.html XOXO
Just ordered this one! ❤
😍😍😍
Wearing this today for my 60th Birthday! I love your style and purchased based on your review! Thanks Taz!💕
Do you think this would be good for a first wig?
I started by selecting more affordable styles to get to know my preferences and get used to the feeling of wearing a wig. But we’re each on our own journey. Thanks for the comments and best wishes to you! 😍😍😍
So cute on you! Did you have to tame any shine?
No.. typically heat friendly fiber has less shine XOXO
Could you please tell me which wig is the letter F in the background? Thank you! 😊
Sure! F is ruclips.net/video/FxVaklsUcXs/видео.html
Thank you so much 😊😄
It's soooo cute but waaaay too expensive for my budget. I'd want this in the Bernstein Mix.
Thanks for your thoughts!! XOXO
How does this compare to Jon Renau Julianne??
Great idea for a comparison! XOXO
Can you tell me what the wigs on mannequins E and C are in this video?
Hello! E is ruclips.net/video/dh7wEE9JDVc/видео.html and C is ruclips.net/video/1ZuIOUh4iMQ/видео.html XOXO
Do you have anything about an inch or two short same curly style?
Feel free to email support@wigstudio1.com. They can set up a consultation with you at no charge! XOXO
Hi Taz! What is the wig on mannequin H please?
H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde.. I featured it in this video ruclips.net/video/a6UzY96dtR4/видео.html
Not that H. 😊 its H on the ECLAT video.
just received mine. The curl pattern is entirely different. I just have curls on the bottom.
Thank you for sharing Angela!! I love getting feedback like this because it points out to buyers that there are variances in curl pattern from piece to piece and what to expect! XOXO
How do I take the shine out of wigs that are so shiny?
This may help ruclips.net/video/3caB7hhoQ1c/видео.html
Yay permatease!
What wig is on mannequin “H”
H is Belle Tress City Roast in Cream Soda Blonde XOXO
I wish short wigs with waves and locken
Danke für deine schönen Videos

What is the name of the one on mannequin C?
C is this one ruclips.net/video/1ZuIOUh4iMQ/видео.html
If I could only afford this wig!
Beer budget/ Champagne taste. 600.plus ouch 😅 it better chauffeur me around town and clean my house for me at that price 😝 in the wise words of Hall & Oates: I can’t go for that! Nooo no can do!
Thanks for having a light, fun attitude towards it..lol! Some wigs are fun to look at, but have a more narrow pool of buyers for price, color options, fit, etc.. XOXO
@@TAZSWIGCLOSET we have to joke ...otherwise it would get unbearable. Lol 😂
C and E names?
C is ruclips.net/video/1ZuIOUh4iMQ/видео.html and E is ruclips.net/video/dh7wEE9JDVc/видео.html
I don’t know how to send pics in my wigs. So u can see what I’m needing desperately!
Can I email you
Sorry! I do not take personal requests at this time. There are too many to keep up with! XOXO
😃😄💗🙏
