Hi Shannon, thank you for stopping by! I wish I still had an Iced Java to compare but if memory serves, I do believe they're pretty close. xoxo Marlene
Hi Marlene! Thanks for showing these new colors! I really like both of them on you. I will be getting the buttered toast for me. I hope that you are safe in this storm. Thank you again for all that you do for us!
Hi Terry Sue! Thank you so much for stopping by and thinking of me during the storm. All is good in my neck of the woods. I hope you love Buttered Toast as much as I do! xoxo Marlene
Thank you for showing the color Triple Chocolate-R , Marlene. I've been curious about it ever since Belle Tress introduce the new colors, now I can make my decisions of those colors easier. Weather is getting windy down in SW Florida.
Hi Cindy! Hope it didn't get too bad in SW FL. We just had lots of wind and some heavy rain. I was pretty suprised on much I liked Triple Chocolate. xoxo Marlene
I like both colors. I’m more of a cool toned girl. I especially like the triple chocolate color. I’m glad Belle Tress is coming out with some darker colors. I like both colors so now off to find some wigs to order in those colors. Thank you for the review of the colors!
Hi Catherine! Thank you so much for stopping by! I think both colors are beautiful. Triple Chocolate really surprised me. I feel Belle Tress did a great job with these colors. xoxo Marlene
They are both beautiful. I don't know if I could wear the darker one, but I love those subtle highlights. It's actually my favorite of the two. Can't wait for Macadamia Latte! Thank you so much for showing us these.
Hi Clara, thank you for stopping by! These colors are beautiful; I'm happy to see BT expanding their colors on the City Collection and looking forward to the the 3rd color due to release in Nov. xoxo Marlene
Well, darn. I thought I had finished buying my fall and winter wigs but now I want Cardiff. I almost think you get a better look at the color in cloudy weather.
Hey Beautiful! Put Cardiff on your wishlist. It's a beauty! I think it's right along up there for me like Hollie. Just perfection. Thanks for letting me know the color appears more accurate in the cloudy weather. xoxo Marlene
Hi Nancy! Thank you so much! We had quite a bit of wind and rain on the east coast of central FL. My heart just goes out to those on the west coast and the panhandle. xoxo Marlene
My favorite of the 2 is definitely buttered toast… is it going to be coming out on styles with bangs? I prefer the cooler shades and so glad to see them finally coming out in wigs!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Hope you’re safe there in FL 🙏
My favorite of the 2 is definitely buttered toast… is it going to be coming out on styles with bangs? I prefer the cooler shades and so glad to see them finally coming out in wigs!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hi Shirley! thank you for stopping by! Yes, these colors are available on all the styles in the City Collection. There are a few with bangs in the City Collection. Just make sure to contact customer service at the retailer to make certain the style and color is in stock. Some styles in Buttered Toast are going into backorder. It's been a pretty popular color. xoxo Marlene
Thank you, Marlene, for showcasing the new colors. I would love to see a comparison between Buttered Toast and Shaded Cappuccino. If not a video, can you tell me how they compare. Shaded Cappuccino is my favorite color and I have not found a BT color that works for me. BSSC is too dark for me - I was surprised to see how close it was to Buttered toast. Hope you have a spectacular day!
Hi Deborah, thank you for stopping by! SS Cappuccino is RL12/22SS and Buttered Toast is 8/12/22 + 8. Buttered Toast is slightly darker due to the 8 in the blend. Buttered Toast also appears a bit cooler, but I'll compare the two in a video. Hopefully, I can have it for next week. xoxo
Hi Karen, I agree. Buttered Toast is similar to Toasted Walnut but a bit cooler. We'll see how Macadamia Latte compares when it's released. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio thank u. I'm definitely going to find something I love in that color. Probably this weekend when I have time to sit down and really look. I'm so excited. I've got so many wigs already. But never enough! ❤️. Believe it or not I still have and occasionally wear two RW that are 14 yrs old and still are perfect. They're classic styles and, of course, I didn't wear them daily. I rotated. They both are monofilament, etc and each one was $99 back then! ❤️
Thank you Marlene for showing Buttered Toast; been wondering what to replace my all time favorite Coolest Ash Brown with... this just might be the ticket!
I love this hair and the colours you’ve shown! Thank you for always being so real and honest. I appreciate you! Can you recommend a wig that would be a good wavy sister style to Cardiff please? Thank you
Hi, thank you so much for stopping by. I think it would be just as pretty on Birmingham. Belle Tress is pretty consistent with the colors. xoxo Marlene
I'm so confused Marlene. First I thought you were with Wig Studio 1, then the other day you mentioned Shirleys Wig (which I went to at your suggestion and bought 2 wigs) and now you say you are at Franny's Wigs. Are you affiliated with one or are you independent and show and buy wigs from different places. I enjoy listening to you and want to know where else I can find you. ❤
Hi Sandra, Over a year ago, Wigstudio1 let me know they no longer needed me to review for them or work on their FB group. Now, I'm not an exclusive reviewer for any retailer. I only review for small women owned companies such as Frannie's Hair and Shirley's. I'm also the lead admin for Frannie's Hair FB group and occasionally lend a hand on Shirley's group as well as a few other private FB groups founded by women. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio TX Marlene. Let's C if I can get this posted. As far as WS-Won is concerned, it's their great loss but more so ours. Shame. I imagine U were 2 honest 4 them. And when they go live I've yet to see a wig that doesn't look like a wig (and a bad wig) being modelled by "whoever" is modelling them. (I've got more to say about that. Just use your imagination. ). I buy based on price. And unfortunately it is very hard for a small buz 2 compete. But I will definitely check first. I do know Shirley has some great buys based on what I've seen so far. I wish money wasn't my priority but I'm self supporting and most of us know how hard it is these days. Ive bought one wig from Shirley that's an old style but I love it. Sage. In CROMMERT1B. I see you modelling these routed silvers and I thought I'd try. Haven't put her on yet as I just got her today. I'm hoping to buy another from Shirley but had a question so I'm waiting to hear back. I will check out Frannies. Isn't her business the one that just celebrated one year? I hope your can find something from her as well. Thanks for answering. you and i wear very different styles and colors. I'm very fair, blue, naturally blonde! But I love hearing your feedback and i learn a lot from you. Thank you for your hard work for all of us Wig Sisters! Be safe. I keep hearing about the hurricane...Sandi from Boston.
Hi Marlene, although you seem to have a warmer/neutral color skin tone possibly? this color, cool as you think it may be, looks awesome against your skin. I am dying to try it.
Hi Donna, yes, I have a medium tan skin tone with neutral undertone. I think the neutral undertone is what allows me to wear most colors (except warm reds and gold blondes YIKES!). Yesterday, I recorded a video for Macadamia Latte-R (it'll be up later this morning) and compared it to Brown Sugar Sweet Cream as well as Buttered Toast. When placing Buttered Toast next to the other two colors, I can really see how much cooler this color is. I love Buttered Toast! I think it's my new favorite. xoxo Marlene
Thank you, Clara. I'm on the east coast of central FL. We had lots of wind and rain, but not bad at all. If a hurricane is a Cat 1 or 2, we just stay inside; those are just lots of wind and rain. For Cat 3 and above, we make certain we have provisions: bottled water, flashlights, canned foods etc. We also put up hurricane shutters on our windows. Barrier islands, beach side, and high flood areas are evacuated and there are lots of shelters open such as schools which are safe and built to withstand high winds. Unlike tornadoes, we know days in advance and have time to prepare. In the past, I've put up my hurricane shutters and left FL to stay with friends in the midwest for a few days until it passed. During the early 80s, I was in Puerto Rico when Hugo, a Cat 4, slammed the island. Talk about scary! xoxo Marlene
Yes! I received my triple chocolate and I can’t understand how it’s being called rooted. I’m not seeing any difference in the root color. Super disappointed.
@@MarlenesWigChatStudioYeah! You are often ahead of other reviewers in showing new colors and styles. It is much appreciated. Those color swatches manufacturers post rarely look like the actual wig hair color so your color reviews are especially important. I appreciate you Marlene! Great job.❤😊
You had me at Iced Java!!! Woohoo 🙌 Yay Belle Tress! FINALLY ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Shannon, thank you for stopping by! I wish I still had an Iced Java to compare but if memory serves, I do believe they're pretty close. xoxo Marlene
Love buttered toast. My next order! It’s cool I believe and I love cool shades! Thanks!!

Triple chocolate is very pretty, it is dark but has some dimension, love cardiff! Thanks for these videos, so helpful.
Hi Jen, thank you so much for stopping by. I agree! Both the color and style are beautiful. xoxo Marlene
Thanks for the review. Buttered toast is cool for sure. Same weather here today.
You're welcome and thank you for stopping by & feedback! Be safe! xoxo Marlene

they both look gorgeous on you 😍... i prefer the triple chocolate R (it`s pretty close to my bio-hair :-))
Thank you so much and thank you for stopping by! xoxo Marlene
I love buttered toast! It’s a gorgeous color Marlene! You can wear the darker color also!
Thank you so much, Pam! xoxo Marlene

I hope they end up making hair toppers - must confess I’m a wig virgin! - in buttered toast. Love it.
Hi Melanie, thank you so much for stopping by! Hopefully, these colors will be expanded to their toppers! xoxo Marlene
I have McQueen and Maison in toasted walnut. I'd love to find a match in the city collection. I think this looks similar, but too cool.
Hi Karen, I agree. Buttered Toast is similar to Toasted Walnut but a bit cooler. We'll see how Macadamia Latte compares when it's released. xoxo Marlene
Love. As a blonde who wants to try browns and is a real cool toned person BT is for me! Hard to find cools.....
Hi Sandra, if you're wanting to try a brown and love the cool, I think Buttered Toast would be perfect! xoxo Marlene

those colors are so close but I think buttered toast is cooler love that color!

Pretty just too cool for me. Thank you!
Thank you so much for stopping by! xoxo Marlene
Another awesome color review. Buttered Toast-R is beautiul on you!! How do you think that color would look on Birmingham? Thank you Marlene!
Hi, thank you so much for stopping by. I think it would be just as pretty on Birmingham. Belle Tress is pretty consistent with the colors. xoxo Marlene
Well then, I think I will serve up one buttered toast-R in Birmingham :)

Btw what do you do in a storm like that?! Hope you're ok 🙏

Those hairlines are the best I've ever seen! No dark knots at all which can be very obvious.
Hi Nancy, thank you for visiting! I agree! The hairlines on Belle Tress are beautiful. xoxo Marlene
Yes! I received my triple chocolate and I can’t understand how it’s being called rooted. I’m not seeing any difference in the root color. Super disappointed.
Hi, no, this color is pretty dark. I'm not sure why they're calling it rooted or if it can even be rooted since it's such a dark color. xoxo Marlene
Such cool colors don't look good on me. :( I hope Macadamia Latte is warmer. Both of these colors look good on you though!
Thank you so much, Deirdre. I have Macadamia Latte on order and will show it as soon as it arrives. It's due to release in November. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudioYeah! You are often ahead of other reviewers in showing new colors and styles. It is much appreciated. Those color swatches manufacturers post rarely look like the actual wig hair color so your color reviews are especially important. I appreciate you Marlene! Great job.❤😊
Ugh. I wished the toasted was warm or slightly warm. Poop.
I'm sorry! Let's hope Macadamia Latte leans a bit warmer than Buttered Toast. xoxo Marlene
