Thank you for the tutorial! Please keep them coming on different styles for us newbies! And thank you for listing what you use to cut and thin the wig. The wig does look better. Very helpful video!
I saw on another channel that you can take a hot comb & create a part at the top & use a chalk marker or under eye concealer to draw a natural top part.
Seville by Noriko is a synthetic (not heat friendly) style. The only heat I recommend using on traditional synthetic fibers is steam or the Hot Tools Professional plastic hot air brush (on dry fibers), because these fibers can melt. I would not use a hot comb. Also, I'm skeptical about being able to achieve a natural looking part with this method. Be careful about the advice you follow!💖
You can take all your bangs to the center, twist them, and clip once. They will fan out evenly and slightly longer at the sides. I have a new wig and it needs styling and I enjoyed your video
Thanks so much, Athena!😀 I like that method too and trimmed my Rachel Lite that way recently. I may show this method in a future video. Thanks for watching!💖
Hi Michelle, I ran across your videos today. I’m always on then sites. Loved your style of the presentation. And like me I’m not a fan of permatease, I want to know the how to’s. So I had to subscribe. Girl where have you been hiding? Thanks and I’ll keep watching. PS any videos where you are trimming the back and sides? Thanks again💕
Hi Jenny! Welcome, I'm so glad you're here!😀 I have been busy raising 2 boys but they are older now and I have more time... I definitely plan to keep the "how-to" videos coming, including how to trim the back and sides. (I trimmed one side just a little bit in the Untold Story video.) Thanks for watching!❤️
I’m new to wigs due to losing my hair from chemo but the first wig I bought has a lot of permatease. I love the way you explain everything taking your time so I subscribed and will be watching more of your videos. The zigzag part helps the wig a lot! Thanks!!!!
Welcome, I'm glad you are here!😀 I'm so sorry to hear about what you are going through. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about wigs and I will try to respond promptly. Wishing you all the best with your treatments!💖
This was very helpful! I have all the tools, now I just have to buck up and try this! Yay! That wig looks great on you! Yes, bangs are my best friend! 👍
So I don't understand how you managed to do a pony, with your hair showing in back, with a full wig. I've did this with a topper, but don't understand how to incorporate my own bio hair in back when a full wig would normally cover that part of your hair/head. Can you please explain? Thanks so much for all of the info you've shared. 😀
You are very welcome! 😀❤The best thing is probably for you to watch me create a ponytail. My review for Mesmerized shows exactly how I create a ponytail from A-Z. Here is the link -ruclips.net/video/XAFfFlP3jhU/видео.html Hope this helps!
Thanks Michelle for this video. I have thinned a few wigs and did it as you said, not taking the top layers. I like to wear a bob style and always try to put it behind my ears and they are usually too thick to do that. I will try what you said, taking a bit at a time and checking before going further.
On camera, it is s o interesting that these very PT wigs never look overwhelming, but IRL or in photos they just swallow your head and face! This is especially evident in darker colors. Seville is lovely, and you made great modifications.
Hi Michelle, could you do a video on how to fix hairline on a who done it wig? It's been trimmed ok, but looks too dark and unnatural, especially in front. Lots of products out there, mousse, spray, powders, etc. Help !
Thank you sooo much for this video, you have covered everything i need to do with my new wig, the bangs, the perma tease, the thinning, everything in one video!!! Im so happy i found you, and that wig is sooo you, looks fantastic on you 😊 thanks again!
Hi! I just found your videos and I can't wait to watch all the others. I do have a question: At minute 8:31, you have the wig on the head stand and you have a ponytail. Is the ponytail a wig and if so, what is the name of it. I'm a big ponytail wearer and yours looks wonderful!!
Hi, welcome, I'm so glad you're here!😃 I hope you will enjoy watching my videos. I'm so sorry I neglected to mention that I'm wearing Zara Lite by Jon Renau in FS6/30/27, Toffee Truffle, at min. 8:31 in this video. Here's a link to my full review for this wig showing how I style her into a ponytail - ruclips.net/video/2oOT7Oiv9xo/видео.html. This is my favorite wig style to wear in a ponytail! Hope this helps!💖
Very helpful video! I'm wondering, is there a way to take away some of the bulk in a mono top? Can you thin it the same way you thinned the sides? Or does that mess up your parting options if thinned? I'm referring to the actual mono top area & not the hair underneath it.
Thanks so much for your question, Mary! I would not thin the fibers in a mono top. I do think that would alter your parting options and might not look good. I have never seen a mono top wig that looked too dense in the actual mono top area. You could very carefully pluck some fibers (not in clumps). Here is a link to a video where I do some plucking - ruclips.net/video/Ma77NDPmdGo/видео.html Hope this helps!💖
I purchased my first topper at a wig salon. I know it is synthetic hair but am wondering how I know if mine can take a hot air brush. The salon wants me to bring it to them to have it styled and that will be expensive. Hoping I can figure out how to do this myself.
You can use the HOT TOOLS Professional Hot Air Styling Brush or a steamer to style synthetic fibers. Here is a link to a video showing how I like to style a synthetic wig with steam - ruclips.net/video/jcDltchkQtU/видео.html. Here is a link to a video showing how I like to style a synthetic wig with this plastic hot air brush - ruclips.net/video/oOsczIUvfPU/видео.html. If you are concerned about damaging the fibers, I suggest testing the underside of your topper first. Hope this helps!💖
I have never tried Jackson by Noriko. According to the wigs.com website, the measurements for Jackson are - Front: 6.8" | Crown: 9" | Nape: 8.25" and the measurements for Seville are - Front: 5.15" | Crown: 10.65" | Nape: 9.8".💖
Hi Marjolaine, we feel the same way then!👍I think really voluminous styles can look lovely on some face shapes. My face shape is just not one of them.💖
This is Seville by Noriko. You can purchase her at www.wigs.com. Here is a link - www.wigs.com/products/seville-long-wig-noriko. If you use the discount code MICHELE25, you can save 25%. (I receive a commission)💖
Hi Michele, I just purchased my first WS1 clearance wig, United by EW. I love the style but have some of the same issues as you have with Seville. The main problem is the long front fringe falling in my face. I will purchase that Hot Tools brush, but do you recommend any type of styling spray? I see Hairuwear with the control settings around $30, a bit pricey! There are other Hairuwear sprays but want to make sure I get something that holds and can be used on both synthetic and HD fibers. I value your advice and keep making these videos! :)
United by Ellen Wille is a very pretty style! To answer your question, I don't use styling sprays. I believe many wig wearers like Jon Renau's Fiber Love Holding Spray (although it's pricey too!). It works for both synthetic and heat friendly synthetic fibers. Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching!😀💖

Thanks Simone!😀❤ I really appreciate your suggestions and plan to continue to sprinkle in tutorials in between wig reviews.👍
Bangs look so much better after you did all the steps... And that birds nest part looked so much better after you zig zagged the part. Great job!!!!
Thanks so much!😀❤ That part was definitely a challenge!
love your speaking voice. Great content. I always like to see what other influencers are up to in customizing these wigs. I love to pick up tips
Thanks so much MichelePearl!😀That means a lot coming from an expert!💖 I feel the same way, I like to compare notes with other wig wearers too...
Thank you Michele! I appreciate the time and effort you put into putting this video together, You are brave and precious. Blessings!

Thanks so much!😀❤ Good luck!

Hi I use my thinning shears on the bottom 1.5 inch of my bangs to give them a wispy look
May I ask....are you of Swedish descent?
Do you hear an accent? I'm actually American/Swiss.🇺🇸🇨🇭💖

I also so not like volume and big, thick air on me!
