Do you worry about people knowing you're wearing a wig when you switch up your colors? I'm trying to decide if I want to keep the same style and change the colors or buy different styles in the same color....
@shanhare76 Among my friends, they all know. I announced my decision. I used to change colors all the time anyways so that is normal for me. I've had aquaintences comment on my hair, and when I tell them it's a wig, they are surprised, but really, I wear a wig. Who cares?
What a beautiful array of wigs in gorgeous colours. I'm so pleased Rachel Welch are starting to produce wigs in the petite size. I hope they do a Editor's Pick in petite. ❤❤
You need a portable steamer to maintain a synthetic fibre wig. You need a canvas block with the proper circumference to match your own.head size, a clamp to fasten to a table to maintain wig. Cover the canvas block with green masking tape and clear packing tape, you will need blocking pins to secure the wig on to the block to maintain. You can get rid of the frizz from wearing and it rubbing on your back with a portable steamer, you can also set your wig in rollers, use end papers to wrap the ends before winding on the roller set wet and ret after setting and use the steamer spend time to make sure steam gets all the way throughout to the ends.with each roller. You can use rollers. Straws, pin curls, braids to set and steam for different curl patterns. Just came across this video. I am a wig maker and work n film, tv, and theatre.🙏🏻🇨🇦
The showstopper looks so good on you. They all do, but I think showstopper was so beautiful on you. thank you for doing this video as I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to do when considering wigs.
Also Love When You Show Alot Of Different Wigs!!!! Also Enjoy Seeing You Do Different Styles With The Wigs You Try On!!!!! THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love Mesmerized and Spotlight, my favorites ! Play it Straight I don’t have but might try! But I always go for Mesmerized and Spotlight both elite and regular!❤
You are precious! I love watching your channel, love your detailed descriptions and enthusiasm! Thank you! I don't have allapecia, but my front hairline/ bangs never grew back in after chemo, hence, my wig girls!
Thanks Amanda, I love raquel welch wigs and especially in my fav colour iced latte macchiato. After watching you the other day ended up realising I needed another one so put an order in 😂😅😅
Thank you for your video. Will be looking for more of them. You look beautiful in all of them. Appreciate showing what they look like. I am hooked on wigs, due to slowly loosing my hair as I grow older.
Mesmerized 😍 in SS Sand. LOVE the hand tied cap ~ SO comfy! My BF & god daughter both have thick LONG bio hair, similar length and guess what? Their hair gets tangled too! Mesmerized is my weekend/date night girl. I’m a petite, so I do have to snug her in to get a nice fit but it doesn’t feel bulky in the back. I just love her! 🥰
I very much enjoyed your review today! I have two favs… Wavy Day and Simmer elite In my shade of shaded biscuit. Love mono parts and hand tied caps with little perma tease. Love your bubbly personality 💖
I am so excited Amanda! I just purchased a topper as I watched a few more videos and I have enough hair (for now) to try this and get used to it. I got the “Chameleon”. Tried to ensure I could have a lace for the more natural part and look and still start with a reasonable price for my first one. Thank you so much!!!! Your web site is really user friendly and easy to navigate.
Hi Amanda. I love them all but my favorite is Crushing on Casual in the shaded licorice. I LOVE her. She is exactly how my hair would have grayed if i still had a full head of hair. These ladies are all so lovely!! I really liked the eggplant color and i think it was the shaded cappuccino the one with the highlights that i like also.❤. Thanks for sharing!🩷💚❤️
Amazing! Oh wow, so many more to add to my wishlist - and the colors you show, I would never even think of ordering (they always looks so beautiful on you)! ❤ omgoodness - I really can't decide if I like Show Stopper or Wavy Day - and the colors you are showing are so beautiful - that Black coffee color looks so luxurious. I know that with some wigs you can change the part, but I have a right sided part - and a lot of the wigs I like are left sided parts with not a lot of room to change (It would be awesome if wigs could come with the option of a right or left side part), lol.
I have wavy day in shaded biscuit and I just love her. But I really liked the straight styles. And of course I loved that shade of wavy day, I'm seriously considering getting more in different colors lol
I love Shaded Biscut, but I'm also loving that Shaded Iced Cafe Latte!! You gave such good information, about the care and maintenance of the heat friendly styles. It's so expensive to buy them, and then find out afterwards the commitment it takes. Thank you for all you do!!
Im wondering ...I get so hot especially july and August. All of my wigs have been mono top open wefted .do you think the hand tied would feel cooler? Orrr would it feel hotter because its all enclosed? Thanks for your great videos and ideas!! 💚
I am looking to start wearing wigs my question is how hot are they in the summer months? Do they seem to make you sweat more? And how do they stay on, do they slide around? I love all of these on you. Makes it hard to choose my favorite color. ❤ them all.
Hi Amanda! Great video! I have a quick question. I have Show Stopper and I cannot get the bangs to lay down. They just stick out straight. I really love the style but hate that the bangs do this. I have tried water, heat, leaving clips in overnight. Nothing helps. Do you have any suggestions?
I just received Scene Stealer and I was wondering what you use to get your parts more natural and not az zig zaggy? After I part it, it just wants to kind of fall back to the jagged part, whick does also look nice, but I usually wear a straight part. Do you suggest a low hot comb or or are you using water to shape the part?
@@chiquelwigs thank you! I did find a couple if your videos showing the steamer method, so going to try that :) Thank you so much for all of your tips and info!
I'm finding lately shaded biscuit is darker and drab it's not the vibrant blonde it used to be are you finding this? Have you tried a new one lately to see the color difference? Thank you!
Hey Amanda, I finally shaved my head in 2023 with my husbands electric razor but i just can’t get the close results i’m looking for. I’ve admired the way yours looks for some time now. I don’t know if your pretty head comes natural or if you have to use something to help it stay that way. I guess on 2nd thought, it doesn’t really matter whether YOU need to use anything to shave… You STILL could carry the knowledge about something, regardless of whether you personally practice it or not.🤪(Duh!)🙄 Lol 🤣🤣😅ohh gosh Well, my main point / question / whatEver you want to call it was that I admire your upkeep & knowledge so it is only natural that I turn to someone like you for advice regarding the wig-wearing experience. I was wondering if you happened to know of a particular product, model, brand, store, or suggestion of some kind you can recommend to me that will give me an extremely close shave? My ideal razor will be capable of both, cutting off hair that is a few inches long, as well as keeping a bald head bald with a daily maintenance shave that is easy to do …via just dry would be the BEST!! ** But if that’s asking for waay too much in just 1 device, then what Im asking for help with is just the daily bald maintenance device. (Because it’s easy to find razors that cut inches off- even any dog shears will do that! And my husband’s razor already does that) So yeah, my main objective right now is to locate a good baldy… do you know??
I would love the style of the first wig but not heat sensitive because I don't want to have to put curls back in. But my head is big! Help! I'm a bit over 23 inch.
Can I ask what your head measurements are? Ear to Ear? Front to Nape ? Temple to Temple? You said you're a petite-- Also wondering I am too Great channel : )
When you mentioned that some wigs are better than others, regarding the dodgy lacefront on Showstopper, isnt this where 'Quality control' at source comes into play ? Very disappointed to see that from RW
So mid-length wavy wigs are pretty much disposable. Right? Wig makers need to figure it out. They make them & sell them but the style will only last 4-5 wears… if you’re lucky. Because it will get sticky and fibers glob together the frizz when brush tangles out after the 5th time…You WILL have to put heat to it and therefore the style you bought does not exist anymore. The wig you paid for is no longer. This is an important thing they should disclose. I just think they aren’t doing a good service and people should stop buying the wavy, mid length to long wigs till they can say if we take care of them they will last.. because it doesn’t matter how good you take care of them you will have to apply heat and loose the wig you bought. Period and that is wrong.
I am sorry you have had a bad experience personally with a wavy wig but you can maintain a wavy style with proper care and have it last for many months. And eventually you may want to trim it or straighten it and re curl it but you can get much more wear out of the wig than 4-5 times. Another option would be to purchase a synthetic piece that is not heat friendly as the fibers are more durable and do not frizz as easily. 😊
Yes I had the wavy day Raquel Welch and it looked terrible no matter how much I tried to make it look good so I straightened it and now I love it and wear it all the time
I've had a theory, just a thought that maybe a longer lasting fiber is already available. The only thing is, if they start making new wigs out of it, because they would last longer, people wouldn't buy wigs as often. I have to stick to the short styles
Wow you sure can wear any wig and look beautiful! That’s a gift !
Awww…thank you so much!
I've been wearing Raquel "winner" for about 5 years. I buy it in a variety of colors and get tons of compliments.
