I definitely agree with all the reviewers. It looks absolutely natural and gorgeous. I had actually ordered one based off of the way it looked on you and Sugarpuffandfluff. Just got it today and boy oh boy, mine is WAY curlier than either of you two. WAY curlier. Backside is gorgeous but this front, trying to get it to loosen some. Just goes to show, no 2 (even in same line) are alike.
I think that is the most flattering wig by far you have put on. Not wiggy at all. I think the bangs flatter your face , very beautiful. I hope you start feeling confident in it.
The wig is gorgeous on you! I love this wig. I have had four of them in different colors and it was actually my first wig. I have gone to human hair wigs now, but I still go back to this one. To me it is “perfect” hair. Enjoy it, and the bangs look really good on you as well.
It looks very nice on you and not wiggy ! I think your over thinking on this wig. Looks very natural on you and would never think you had a wig on. Wigs are wigs ... you have to make them look less like a wig. Jill, wear this wig ... it really does look great on you !!
I agree that you are way over analyzing this. The wig looks very natural and pretty. I love bangs/fringe. They make one look younger I think. Oh, and I love your eyeshadow!
Thanks for your true honesty on this wig. ❤️❤️❤️I sometimes feel disillusionment when the wig influencers are “WOW, I LOVE It” on every darn single wig they put in their head!Especially when we behind our screen can see it isn’t looking that “wow” they keep saying. I am impressed with your honesty!
I really thought the wispy bangs looked better across your forehead rather than pulled up and back. Then it doesn't appear to look square on your head/face. 8 noticed such a difference. Nice color on you! Great video! Thank you! 😚
I'm surprised you do not feel good in it. Looks beautiful. Maybe scrunch it. But bangs look very nice. Down or swept to the side. You like Ignite, but this one looks far better. Short is not as good on you. Just my humble opinion.
Thank you! This is encouraging... I think it's ok, and then I look in a mirror and see the 'big' picture, and for some reason it looks SO wiggy! I really want to love this one, so I hope I grow to get over it, and it becomes one I love. I'll try again w/ it today. Thanks for watching, Lois!
You look beautiful in it after you brushed it at the end. It doesn't look "wiggy" to me, as I see it on you. And thank you so much for your honesty, recommendations and wonderful videos.
I just got this wig. My reaction was much like yours. It was my first wig. I have dark hair. At first I felt like I looked gorgeous. The next day I put the wig on and thought it looked wiggy and square. I keep putting it on and playing with it and I am feeling better and better about it. I think what we are seeing is a "glam" look. This is always how I wanted my real hair to look. The soft waves the platinum blonde. I am getting used to seeing myself as the person who would wear this wig and I am loving it! I have been out in it a couple of times. I have decided to keep her. Looking at your video I thought she looked great on you. Not at all wiggy or square but very natural
I know I'm very late to this party but that wig looks stunning on you 😍. I've made my way through a lot of your videos and this wig is my favourite. I'm new to wigs and have Alva which I struggled with tbh, as didn't know how to style her, get the fibres moving etc. who knew I could use a hot air brush or cut my fringe with a razor comb! I do now! off to purchase both and thank you so much for your tips and ideas I've learned a lot. Greetings from the UK x
This is sooooo good I love it the curl pattern is perfect ..I think they have made the front light to stop the knots showing like on a dark root..I think it's FABULOUS 💋@yes a great wedding wig oh I can see it half up half down with flowers or crystals in it 💞It dose not look wiggy at all come on !!!! No. To me it looks so natural why am I not seeing what you see ?
New to these videos and I just wanted to say this wig is gorgeous and absolutely gorgeous on you! I think because it has the wispy bang/ waves, it looks more realistic than some of the other straight ones. It looks like your hair and the color is so beautiful!
Jill I think you've been wearing toppers and smooth sleek styles and you think the hair looks wiggly. I get it, that happens to me whenever I make a big change in "my look". You look fabulous and like a movie star. Maybe the color is a little light? But the bangs, although you don't like them look fine. I think you were being too critical on yourself. It's definitely a change, so you have to wear it all the time in order to get that confidence. You're lovely!
Hi Cathy! I am hoping that is it. I really want to love this one. ;) I do think this color in THIS style just puts it over the top for me (not in a good way) LOL I think though, if I had ordered it in another color I would have always wished I would have tried this one. Haha! Maybe if I do warm up to it, I'll try it in another color? Thanks so much for watching, and for your nice, encouraging words!
I know it's all eye of the beholder stuff but for what it's worth 'cause my oldest and dearest female friend watches you and sometimes we view together, I think you look beautiful in this wig and it doesn't appear fake at all - but - hey, you've got to love it or it ain't gonna happen. Best heartfelt from Melbourne, Australia
I have this exact wig in the same color. I don't wear it much because I think it looks wiggy on me too. That being said - my husband says this one is his favorite. I don't think it looks wiggy on you, but it's all about perception and confidence, isn't it? You do look fab....
I just received my simmer and I was disappointed. I have a smaller head and frame so hair that looks normal on most people looks like it’s swallowing me alive. That’s what happened with Simmer. 😔 I hope that you have a different experience. I’m new to wigs so if you have any tips or specific wigs that you would suggest, I would really appreciate it!
What's funny is, I've wanted this and keep watching for my color to go on the sale site of Cysterwigs. It's always a color I don't want and a few months ago shaded biscuit popped up! Yay! I have a big issue with the bangs on editors pick though. They're short and chopped off looking on mine. They want to go straight up on mine. I can wear them up and over, but it's not like I've seen it styled in anyone else. They don't blend like I've seen others. I don't think the bangs are even close on all the wigs. I wonder if it's where they're manufacturered?
Love your chats! I’m sure you will find the sweet spot on this wig and find the confidence to sport it beautifully. I looked long and hard at it and though it looks tremendous on so many, including you, I think, at 67, it might be a bit too long for me? Perhaps too much hair for me? I don’t know...I think Flirt Alert might be my next purchase thanks to you and Nisha.
I wish we could share pictures here - I just received this wig in the same colour about a month ago. I feel ridiculous in it - yet it is so beautiful. It makes my head feel so oddly large. My mom says it doesn’t look wiggy at all. I’m pretty sure she’s lying. 😋 Anyways - I think it looks really nice on you. I hope I pull it off half as well.
Hi Jill....I have this wig & I love it, but I too have to clip it back with cute clips...I do not feel comfortable with it all down. BUT you look great with the wispy bangs!!
Love your podcasts! I think this wig looks great on you, I always have issues with bangs too, but these look really good on you! I tried a wig similar to this, I simply felt overwhelmed in it,so wanted to like it. I have purchased an Ignite because of your review and the styling. Congrats on the upcoming wedding, that’ll WIG you out, 😂!💕
Hi Jill. I have 2 EPS. Just like you I was excited to get this wig. I do like it, but not my favourite. On you, however, it looks great... like someone else said, I think you are overthinking it... bangs look refreshing and youthful on you and overall EP is fun and flirty..It’s actually the first wig that my Mother complimented me on. I actually prefer Flirt Alert and Simmer, but just accept EP for what it is: a fun wavy style that is something I like to wear on occasion. Feel confident in it... I am a seasoned wig wearer and have to say it doesn’t look wiggy on you at all. Enjoy it!!! It would look beautiful for you to wear at your daughter’s wedding. Put some blingy clips in the sides or accessorize it to match your dress!!! Thanks for the review!!
OMGoodness, Jill, this was well worth your wait!! It looks absolutely fabulous on you!! You can comb the bangs back and spray them in place. I have this wig and wear it both ways. A PERFECT wedding wig. And, very natural looking!! Not wiggy at all! You are just too self conscious. NOT square. This is the hair we all dream of having but, never had! So, you have to get “used to having hair”! I had to get used to the look of “hair” after all these years too!😉👍🏻👍🏻 Truly it is amazing!😉 Enjoy!! Love & Hugs, Mary 😍🤗 P.S. Maybe you can thin the sides a bit if you’d feel more “real” looking/comfortable. Get your spray bottle with water and play with it!!👍🏻👍🏻
Jill, I love that wig on you and I have it also. I found it best to just let the wispy bang stay loosely on my forehead and not fight it. It doesn't look wiggy on you to me. You rock that wig gurl.
Thanks for your honesty because I thought the same thing. It’s definitely a beautiful piece but I’m not so sure it’s right for me. Don’t know if it’s just too much hair or if it’s the shape but I didn’t feel comfortable in it. I might try one more time. Like you, I’m mostly a topper person so maybe that’s it.
It looks Sooooo gorgeous on you! And so does the Palm Springs blonde. I really like these lighter colors on you. I recently got Simmer in Bombshell blonde. The deal was too good to turn down even though I wasn’t sure about the color as I prefer shaded biscuit. It’s also a beautiful wig but I was surprised with how golden the color was I was expecting more platinum blonde. Just thought I’d share that in case anyone is curious.
I love how it looks on you and from the video it's not wiggy at all. I just got my Editors Pick in Shaded Biscuit. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the color. I wasn't sure the color could live up to the hype but it did. I personally think Editors Pick has a lot of hair for a person like me whose hair is thin and fine and isn't used to having hair. While I love the wig, at least initially I will likely wear mine pulled back off my face, pulled back at the sides etc to take some of the fullness away from the face. I like how it looks down /full when I take a picture of myself but it just "feels" obvious to me that its a wig when its down/full. I have a RW Simmer on order & I'm supposed to get that in 2 weeks. From the reviews/pictures I've seen I think that's supposed to be not so full.
I understand regarding this wig looking wiggy. I too had EP and I thought the same thing, regarding the wiggyness of it. So, unfortunately, I sent it back. It just made me look not natural but you have to follow your heart and head on this one.
I'm glad I found your channel. I know what this wig will look like on me because you look like my sister lol it was a little weird at first though. Anyways I think you look good in this wig. The fibers on all the editors pick do look like fibers to me but I've never seen one in person yet either. I keep trying to decide if I want her or not.
Thank you for showing the entire wig on the inside. I have neverseen a wig on the inside and this is my first time ever looking at one. So, again thank you for thinking of me 😉. Do you have a tutorial on how to put a wig on and how to secure? Love your channel!
I wore my editor's pick for the first time today. I really love it! But...care instructions say DO NOT COMB OR BRUSH. It seems weird to try to work the tangles out w/just my fingers. What's your experience?
HI! Just watched this video again to check in and see how you are feeling about it and see if you have worn it out in public yet. I think you aren't used to the curls and fullness yet but it does look good on you. I have gotten lots of positive feedback on mine in shaded cappuccino and I probably wear it too much so no telling how long it will hold up. I really like the beachy waves for a fun carefree look and straighter wigs for a more sophisticated look. The weather and wind in my area lend itself to an unstructured look sorta messy anyway look. Good wedding wigs with curls that will last is what im trying right now...next is a straight bob. Keep up the good work!
I have the same exact wig...color and all and EVERYONE asks me how and what I use for to style my hair. They have no idea it's a wig. Even my stylist when I walked in with it on and sat in the chair she asked me why I went to all the trouble of styling my hair first..lol She couldn't believe it when I pulled it of and that includes all the others in the salon.
I have plenty of hair but I love watching ladies sport wigs. I just think it would be so fun to wear them but I know I won’t. I think you look very pretty in this.
My favorite wig of all time. I have 3 currently. The first one I had to say goodbye too once it developed that heat defiant problem of frizz at the ends even with a lot of care. The wig is exquisite in every way. The color you have is beautiful. I am a dark brown color but have it in 3 shades of brown, want to order the dk red color next. Looks gorgeous
I hope you receive this..I'm a brunette wig rookie. So frustrating trying to find a low density..not shiny.. brunette. Everything is blond blond blond..how is Raquels brunettes? Do they look wiggly and shiny? Thank you
Hi Jill new to your channel and really like the quality of your reviews. Nice and clear video and love showing wigs in various light. Really great job! I do like this one on you but you have to be comfortable. I've just ordered a few RW and so excited to try. I'm a little nervous about how long I'll get these to last. I always with reviewers would do a follow up review after 2 months of wearing the wig.....do the still love the style when the honeymoon is over? And how has it held up??? It would be SO beneficial to know what styles and brands stand up over time. Thanks so much!
I hate rooted. When I had my hair bleached, every 6 weeks I was at the beauty shop getting roots re-done. I hated looking at my hair with the grown out roots. I know the reason for those gosh awful dark roots on wigs. I will always try and find a wig without nasty dark roots. People will just think I just came out of salon with roots bleached. I just had to get this off my chest 😊
I love rooted. Look way less fake with the roots.👍👍👍 Though I doubt I will be able to afford a wig, if I could I would buy rooted but not necessarily would I buy shaded biscuit. Perhaps shaded cappuccino so the roots didn’t jump out at you. Goes to show how we each have our preferences.
I was going to buy this wig and in this color but I am going to hold off. Can you please give an update in the near future on weather or not you grew accustomed to her? Am thinking about purchasing the Kona by bellatress instead in the Latte color. Since you have had both for a bit now which one do you prefer?
I really like it on you - probably like it on YOU better than anyone else I've seen it on. I'm skeptical of wigs and often wonder why sometimes women don't see how "wiggy" a piece looks on them . . . but this one looks really natural on you. YES, you need to embrace the bang - and it's hardly there anyway! I think the curl pattern looks loose and beachy, not overdone or stiff at all. It's really perfect! I'm looking forward to more topper reviews!!!! YAY! I don't yet own a wig and there aren't nearly as many topper videos out there. Thank you for doing more of those as well.
OMG. So I'm not the only one. Totally relate to that square bulbous feeling with EP! I got two of them--shaded cappuccino (which I wore out) and shaded biscuit. Soaked them in cold water for days, fiddled, and wound up wearing them half-up. I still have the shaded biscuit (it's gasping its last). But here's something: I found myself liking the wig more in the summertime, and feeling okay about wearing it outdoors b/c it's so comfortable and breathes so well. Shaded biscuit turns out not to be my color, mainly b/c it looks so "dressy," for some reason. And I never could get that square head look to mold to my smallish head. The "curls" also bothered me. A little doll-like? But on you this wig really does look terrific. No flattery, just perception here. Color? Perfect. Length is youthful without being weird. It may take you a while, but I see WEDDING HAIR! Patience...I think you'll grow into liking it a lot.
Hi Jill, I had the Editors Pick it looked dreadful out of the box and l just knew it wasn't for me, it looked wiggy as you say far too big on top. And as you know you can't style it then send it back, it has to go back the way you receive it. so back it went. So I ordered the Julianne from Jon Renau in petite, fitted like a glove, and the curls are great, I cut it slightly at the front sides as it was longer there.. Now l just love it and get compliments on it everywhere, even from people who don't know me ask where l get my hair done...If you haven't got the Julianne l think you would love it, its fully hand tied too for that little extra money its worth it.. Mine is in the colour 22f16 and looks so natural. oxoxo
It is a gorgeous style and color! I had been toying with the idea of buying this particular wig a while ago. I just might get it after I sell a couple of my current wigs!
Welcome, Trish! So happy you subscribed. This is really a lovely community of women that are so positive and kind. So happy you are here! Hope you find plenty of content you enjoy and find helpful!
Its definitely a beautiful wig. I had it in pale golden honey and shaded biscuit. I ended up selling both of them eventho i loved them. I think it might be the amount of hair, try and thin it out. No matter what I did i just never got comfortable with editors pick. It looks beautiful on you tho. Hope you'll end up loving it.
Hi Jill, just seen this video and I totally agree with you on the Editors Pick, I was so disappointed with mine. I looked like someone in drag, too much hair for me it looked and felt wiggy. It was to dense on the top, I would never order it again. My fave so far is Crowd Pleaser 🙂
so I see this was taped in March, where are you now with this wig? do you wear it out? I thought it looked great. I would love to had a sitI down with you and you show me what wig would look good on i. I am older with lots of issues and I cannot see me in a wig that is straigh with pouf in it. It seems I look better with hair pulled away from my face, but I don't have enough hair to really make that determination. Where are you located?
It think the wig style looks amazing and the blonde hair color is nice, but the root color with this particular hair color is way too dark and invasive. It makes the entire wig look as if the person got a bad hair dye job or is over due for one.
I'm so upset because I love my Editor's Pick wig, but I decided to flat iron it for a change and burned it. I was thinking heat safe to 450 instead of 350 and when I washed it to go back to curls, it is still straight, dry, and looks terrible. Is there anyway to get my curls back? 😪 Thanks for any advice or help you could give me.
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy well...I love it! At first though, like the first hour and before I put my makeup on, I was struggling. Also, the cap was tight the whole first day, but the second day, it felt like a custom wig made with a mold of my head. And omg on this lace! It's my first Raquel Welch, but it definitely won't be my last!
To me that looks like your natural hair. It looks like you have great hair 😊I think it suits you most when you have it parted closest to the middle. I think a middle part on that hairstyle with you would really work.
Interesting because I think it’s one of your best looks in EP. I have editors pic and I loved it at first / although it was just a tad shorter than I prefer. but I don’t feel like the HD fibers lasted very well (as in not more than a few wears) and they feel so dry and course! so that’s why I don’t care for the wig anymore/ but I loved how it looked Initially. And I love the curls. Truly I think it looks fantastic on you!
As you can see I’m an ignite lover myself. I’ve had 3 ignites and loved them all. I have not yet bought an Editor’s Pick. The closest to it was the Gabor Sweet Talk. I wore it a while but couldn’t get used to the amount of hair!
Jill, it really looks good on you and looks natural. I just got this wig in today in bronzed sable. This is my first wig purchase and my first impression was that it looked wiggy, especially in the part that is zig zagged so tightly that you see no appearance of a scalp. I saw immediately that the color was not right for me, so since I knew I would be returning it I didn’t want to do anything with it. When you first put her on, your part and everything looked natural to me. Maybe that is because it is shaded, I don’t really know because I am a newbie. I do love the curl and style and want to reorder it, but don’t know what color to get. My bio hair is a very dark brown. I don’t want a solid color but do want something to look close to my bio hair or blend with it. Would you have any suggestions?
Absolutely beautiful on you! Someday I will splurge on it. I don’t think it looks wiggy at all and the bangs are really nice. I do hear you on the confidence it’s all about how YOU feel. Not what we all see.
I feel the same way with mine. I think it's the larger curl formation for me. Plus, one side of mine is much straighter. I kept mine, but it's not a favorite.
I think it looks fabulous on you and very natural. The hair line is beautiful. I am new to wigs and haven't found one I like on myself. A question I have for you is do you ever use take or glue for your wigs to keep then in place? I have a larger head and they slid around. So look great. Thanks.
Thank you, Delyla! YES..I use IT STAYS body adhesive to secure my wigs! I wouldn't have continued my wig journey without it. I have a head that doesn't want to keep a wig on..LOL and IT STAYS saved me and helped me keep on this wig journey. It is water soluble, so comes off skin, hair and your wigs easily without damage of any kind.
Hi Jill...Editors Pick was my first and still a favorite. I think it is beautiful on you, but true, it does feel a little ‘full’ at the top and that may by why it seems wiggy to you. Wearing it on my profile pic. Hope you can make it your own and see what we are all seeing as you wear it ♥️
I love this on you Jill!!! I will say on my monitor the sb looks so much lighter than mine in person. I wish mine was this light! I love pastel blondes...I feel like they brighten my face and I need that at my age. Lol....Great wig and review
By the way, I mostly wear mine pulled back in an up do...I hear you on the wiggy aspect...it’s so unlike me and I don’t feel totally comfortable in it either.
I agree...I think going lighter does soften and brighten as we age. I am sure the lights I have to film with do make most colors look a little lighter than they are. I did film in front of my window w/ this one...but, I don't know what happened? I obviously must have accidentally cut it out?? OYE! Weather didn't permit filming outside this day. :(
You said you were wearing this, when showing CROWD PLEASER. I was so enchanted - it was so beautiful - I had to find your review. But you didn’t like it? You’ve changed the style - or something - a bit. I wonder if you have an EDITOR’S PICK, PART 2? I love the bang. Being new to this idea, I began to wonder, like with CROWD PLEASER, if I’d have (or if it was normal) to have to have wigs trimmed. It seems you changed your make-up, too, this, vs. the other. It seems I’m going to have to explore lots of videos to catch up! Bless you for sharing!!! Linda
You are an artist, Jill, and you will end up looking stunning in it. I actually think it already looks pretty, but just not defined as a complete style yet, maybe. Anyway, the piece out cream on the bangs and just leave them spikey on the forehead might be very cool rather than the elegance you usually have with the longer wigs.Just some thoughts. Can't wait to see when you have it the way you want, which you will
Thanks for your honesty 🤣 I'm considering trying out a wig and this is exactly the one I am looking at purchasing. My question is.... How hot is it going to be and will it be itchy?
I definitely agree with all the reviewers. It looks absolutely natural and gorgeous. I had actually ordered one based off of the way it looked on you and Sugarpuffandfluff. Just got it today and boy oh boy, mine is WAY curlier than either of you two. WAY curlier. Backside is gorgeous but this front, trying to get it to loosen some.

I agree that you are way over analyzing this. The wig looks very natural and pretty. I love bangs/fringe. They make one look younger I think. Oh, and I love your eyeshadow!

I think you look even prettier WITH the bangs
I REALLY need to embrace those dang bangs! Haha! I don't know what my deal is??
They're...weird. Kind of stick out, sometimes. Depends on the unit. Mine calmed down after a couple of soakings.
LovelyLee 70: I agree. Fringe gives a softer, younger look.
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy I got one and I feel the same way as you I hate mine !!!
You look beautiful in it after you brushed it at the end. It doesn't look "wiggy" to me, as I see it on you. And thank you so much for your honesty, recommendations and wonderful videos.

New to these videos and I just wanted to say this wig is gorgeous and absolutely gorgeous on you! I think because it has the wispy bang/ waves, it looks more realistic than some of the other straight ones. It looks like your hair and the color is so beautiful!
I don't think it looks wiggy. I just ordered one after seeing it on you. It'll be my first wig!
I just got this wig too. It has a lot of hair toward the front. I have been training it toward the back more.
Jill I think you've been wearing toppers and smooth sleek styles and you think the hair looks wiggly. I get it, that happens to me whenever I make a big change in "my look". You look fabulous and like a movie star. Maybe the color is a little light? But the bangs, although you don't like them look fine. I think you were being too critical on yourself. It's definitely a change, so you have to wear it all the time in order to get that confidence. You're lovely!
Hi Cathy! I am hoping that is it. I really want to love this one. ;) I do think this color in THIS style just puts it over the top for me (not in a good way) LOL I think though, if I had ordered it in another color I would have always wished I would have tried this one.

I struggled with Mela and Flert Alert not with EP or Maximum Impact just ordered Simmer hope i like that one
I just received my simmer and I was disappointed. I have a smaller head and frame so hair that looks normal on most people looks like it’s swallowing me alive. That’s what happened with Simmer. 😔 I hope that you have a different experience. I’m new to wigs so if you have any tips or specific wigs that you would suggest, I would really appreciate it!
Love of it!! I want to get one. Love your videos!! New to wigs. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you!!
What's funny is, I've wanted this and keep watching for my color to go on the sale site of Cysterwigs. It's always a color I don't want and a few months ago shaded biscuit popped up! Yay! I have a big issue with the bangs on editors pick though. They're short and chopped off looking on mine. They want to go straight up on mine. I can wear them up and over, but it's not like I've seen it styled in anyone else. They don't blend like I've seen others. I don't think the bangs are even close on all the wigs. I wonder if it's where they're manufacturered?
Love your chats! I’m sure you will find the sweet spot on this wig and find the confidence to sport it beautifully. I looked long and hard at it and though it looks tremendous on so many, including you, I think, at 67, it might be a bit too long for me? Perhaps too much hair for me? I don’t know...I think Flirt Alert might be my next purchase thanks to you and Nisha.
OMG I've had that wig for a couple of years one in shaded biscuit and one in red. I like it!
I wish we could share pictures here - I just received this wig in the same colour about a month ago. I feel ridiculous in it - yet it is so beautiful. It makes my head feel so oddly large. My mom says it doesn’t look wiggy at all. I’m pretty sure she’s lying. 😋
Anyways - I think it looks really nice on you. I hope I pull it off half as well.
Hi Jill....I have this wig & I love it, but I too have to clip it back with cute clips...I do not feel comfortable with it all down. BUT you look great with the wispy bangs!!
I think it looks beautiful and actually purchased her after watching this chat!
Love your podcasts! I think this wig looks great on you, I always have issues with bangs too, but these look really good on you!
I tried a wig similar to this, I simply felt overwhelmed in it,so wanted to like it. I have purchased an Ignite because of your review and the styling. Congrats on the upcoming wedding, that’ll WIG you out, 😂!💕
Hi Jill. I have 2 EPS. Just like you I was excited to get this wig. I do like it, but not my favourite. On you, however, it looks great... like someone else said, I think you are overthinking it... bangs look refreshing and youthful on you and overall EP is fun and flirty..It’s actually the first wig that my Mother complimented me on. I actually prefer Flirt Alert and Simmer, but just accept EP for what it is: a fun wavy style that is something I like to wear on occasion. Feel confident in it... I am a seasoned wig wearer and have to say it doesn’t look wiggy on you at all. Enjoy it!!! It would look beautiful for you to wear at your daughter’s wedding. Put some blingy clips in the sides or accessorize it to match your dress!!! Thanks for the review!!
Ok now I need this wig in my life.
It is gorgeous, Emily! ;)
OMGoodness, Jill, this was well worth your wait!! It looks absolutely fabulous on you!! You can comb the bangs back and spray them in place. I have this wig and wear it both ways. A PERFECT wedding wig. And, very natural looking!! Not wiggy at all! You are just too self conscious. NOT square. This is the hair we all dream of having but, never had! So, you have to get “used to having hair”! I had to get used to the look of “hair” after all these years too!😉👍🏻👍🏻 Truly it is amazing!😉 Enjoy!! Love & Hugs, Mary 😍🤗 P.S. Maybe you can thin the sides a bit if you’d feel more “real” looking/comfortable. Get your spray bottle with water and play with it!!👍🏻👍🏻
Jill, I love that wig on you and I have it also. I found it best to just let the wispy bang stay loosely on my forehead and not fight it. It doesn't look wiggy on you to me. You rock that wig gurl.
Thank you, Cathey! I think you are right....I just need to let the bangs do their 'thang' and be ok with it! Thanks for watching!
The bangs look great on you! I’m so surprised you don’t like them.
Thanks for your honesty because I thought the same thing. It’s definitely a beautiful piece but I’m not so sure it’s right for me. Don’t know if it’s just too much hair or if it’s the shape but I didn’t feel comfortable in it. I might try one more time. Like you, I’m mostly a topper person so maybe that’s it.
It looks Sooooo gorgeous on you! And so does the Palm Springs blonde. I really like these lighter colors on you. I recently got Simmer in Bombshell blonde. The deal was too good to turn down even though I wasn’t sure about the color as I prefer shaded biscuit. It’s also a beautiful wig but I was surprised with how golden the color was I was expecting more platinum blonde. Just thought I’d share that in case anyone is curious.
Ditto what Julie said. It’s gorgeous on you and doesn’t look wiggy at all! It’s beautiful. You ARE rocking it!
I love how it looks on you and from the video it's not wiggy at all. I just got my Editors Pick in Shaded Biscuit. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the color. I wasn't sure the color could live up to the hype but it did. I personally think Editors Pick has a lot of hair for a person like me whose hair is thin and fine and isn't used to having hair. While I love the wig, at least initially I will likely wear mine pulled back off my face, pulled back at the sides etc to take some of the fullness away from the face. I like how it looks down /full when I take a picture of myself but it just "feels" obvious to me that its a wig when its down/full. I have a RW Simmer on order & I'm supposed to get that in 2 weeks. From the reviews/pictures I've seen I think that's supposed to be not so full.
The light hairline looks so real...very beautiful !
I understand regarding this wig looking wiggy. I too had EP and I thought the same thing, regarding the wiggyness of it. So, unfortunately, I sent it back. It just made me look not natural but you have to follow your heart and head on this one.
Have never worn a wig but this wig looks tempting. I do wish that it was a bit longer though for me. If only they offered differing lengths?
I'm glad I found your channel. I know what this wig will look like on me because you look like my sister lol it was a little weird at first though. Anyways I think you look good in this wig. The fibers on all the editors pick do look like fibers to me but I've never seen one in person yet either. I keep trying to decide if I want her or not.
Hi Jill, love your vids. Looks beautiful. Since u posted this March 12th - how did it hold up and how much did you wear it?
Thank you for showing the entire wig on the inside. I have neverseen a wig on the inside and this is my first time ever looking at one. So, again thank you for thinking of me 😉. Do you have a tutorial on how to put a wig on and how to secure?
Love your channel!
I have one to... I hated it on me too... returned it... it did look wiggy on me.... Ignite looks beautiful on u!
I do not like that color on you and it looks so messy....it ages you I would return it.
I wore my editor's pick for the first time today.
I really love it!
But...care instructions say DO NOT COMB OR BRUSH.
It seems weird to try to work the tangles out w/just my fingers.
What's your experience?
HI! Just watched this video again to check in and see how you are feeling about it and see if you have worn it out in public yet. I think you aren't used to the curls and fullness yet but it does look good on you. I have gotten lots of positive feedback on mine in shaded cappuccino and I probably wear it too much so no telling how long it will hold up. I really like the beachy waves for a fun carefree look and straighter wigs for a more sophisticated look. The weather and wind in my area lend itself to an unstructured look sorta messy anyway look. Good wedding wigs with curls that will last is what im trying right now...next is a straight bob. Keep up the good work!
I have the same exact wig...color and all and EVERYONE asks me how and what I use for to style my hair. They have no idea it's a wig. Even my stylist when I walked in with it on and sat in the chair she asked me why I went to all the trouble of styling my hair first..lol She couldn't believe it when I pulled it of and that includes all the others in the salon.
This is my fav...I now have several EP in Shaded Biscuit. Great review.
I have five Editors Pick! My all time favorite- just wish they wore better for the money!
I have plenty of hair but I love watching ladies sport wigs. I just think it would be so fun to wear them but I know I won’t. I think you look very pretty in this.
This is gorgeous...not wiggy at all...my dream hair.
Thank you, Suzy!
I LOVE this on you!! Do not be afraid to go out!!
My favorite wig of all time. I have 3 currently. The first one I had to say goodbye too once it developed that heat defiant problem of frizz at the ends even with a lot of care. The wig is exquisite in every way. The color you have is beautiful. I am a dark brown color but have it in 3 shades of brown, want to order the dk red color next. Looks gorgeous
I hope you receive this..I'm a brunette wig rookie. So frustrating trying to find a low density..not shiny.. brunette. Everything is blond blond blond..how is Raquels brunettes? Do they look wiggly and shiny? Thank you
Looks beautiful I just ordered the same one in the same color waiting for it to be delivered!
Hi Jill new to your channel and really like the quality of your reviews. Nice and clear video and love showing wigs in various light. Really great job! I do like this one on you but you have to be comfortable. I've just ordered a few RW and so excited to try. I'm a little nervous about how long I'll get these to last. I always with reviewers would do a follow up review after 2 months of wearing the wig.....do the still love the style when the honeymoon is over? And how has it held up??? It would be SO beneficial to know what styles and brands stand up over time. Thanks so much!
I think it looks beautiful on you. Hope you are feeling more comortable in it. I thought it looked really cute pinned back.
I hate rooted. When I had my hair bleached, every 6 weeks I was at the beauty shop getting roots re-done. I hated looking at my hair with the grown out roots. I know the reason for those gosh awful dark roots on wigs. I will always try and find a wig without nasty dark roots. People will just think I just came out of salon with roots bleached. I just had to get this off my chest 😊
That's understandable. ;).
I agree! I hate rooted.
I love rooted. Look way less fake with the roots.👍👍👍
Though I doubt I will be able to afford a wig, if I could I would buy rooted but not necessarily would I buy shaded biscuit. Perhaps shaded cappuccino so the roots didn’t jump out at you.
Goes to show how we each have our preferences.
Just received mine today, gee I should have ordered 2! Yes my daughter took this one . So back to ordering another one!
I was going to buy this wig and in this color but I am going to hold off. Can you please give an update in the near future on weather or not you grew accustomed to her? Am thinking about purchasing the Kona by bellatress instead in the Latte color. Since you have had both for a bit now which one do you prefer?
I love it on you! Ordered it!
Rachel Welch is the most comfortable but I have the hardest time adjusting too. Jon Renue is still my go-to. Its a personal experience.
I really like it on you - probably like it on YOU better than anyone else I've seen it on. I'm skeptical of wigs and often wonder why sometimes women don't see how "wiggy" a piece looks on them . . . but this one looks really natural on you. YES, you need to embrace the bang - and it's hardly there anyway! I think the curl pattern looks loose and beachy, not overdone or stiff at all. It's really perfect! I'm looking forward to more topper reviews!!!! YAY! I don't yet own a wig and there aren't nearly as many topper videos out there. Thank you for doing more of those as well.
OMG. So I'm not the only one. Totally relate to that square bulbous feeling with EP! I got two of them--shaded cappuccino (which I wore out) and shaded biscuit. Soaked them in cold water for days, fiddled, and wound up wearing them half-up. I still have the shaded biscuit (it's gasping its last). But here's something: I found myself liking the wig more in the summertime, and feeling okay about wearing it outdoors b/c it's so comfortable and breathes so well. Shaded biscuit turns out not to be my color, mainly b/c it looks so "dressy," for some reason. And I never could get that square head look to mold to my smallish head. The "curls" also bothered me. A little doll-like? But on you this wig really does look terrific. No flattery, just perception here. Color? Perfect. Length is youthful without being weird. It may take you a while, but I see WEDDING HAIR! Patience...I think you'll grow into liking it a lot.
Hi Jill, I had the Editors Pick it looked dreadful out of the box and l just knew it wasn't for me, it looked wiggy as you say far too big on top. And as you know you can't style it then send it back, it has to go back the way you receive it. so back it went. So I ordered the Julianne from Jon Renau in petite, fitted like a glove, and the curls are great, I cut it slightly at the front sides as it was longer there.. Now l just love it and get compliments on it everywhere, even from people who don't know me ask where l get my hair done...If you haven't got the Julianne l think you would love it, its fully hand tied too for that little extra money its worth it.. Mine is in the colour 22f16 and looks so natural. oxoxo
Amazon is no longer selling Beauty Mark wig spray. Do you have a 2nd favorite wig spray????
It is a gorgeous style and color! I had been toying with the idea of buying this particular wig a while ago. I just might get it after I sell a couple of my current wigs!
Hi Jill. I just subscribed after I watched one of your topper videos yesterday. I look forward to lots of great information from you. ❤
Welcome, Trish! So happy you subscribed. This is really a lovely community of women that are so positive and kind. So happy you are here! Hope you find plenty of content you enjoy and find helpful!
I had the same issues! I can only wear it with sides pinned up :)
In my opinion, you look GREAT in that hair!!!
Its definitely a beautiful wig. I had it in pale golden honey and shaded biscuit. I ended up selling both of them eventho i loved them. I think it might be the amount of hair, try and thin it out. No matter what I did i just never got comfortable with editors pick. It looks beautiful on you tho. Hope you'll end up loving it.
Not wiggy at all . Stunningly gorgeous. Embrace the curl pattern it's perfect
Hi Jill, just seen this video and I totally agree with you on the Editors Pick, I was so disappointed with mine. I looked like someone in drag, too much hair for me it looked and felt wiggy. It was to dense on the top, I would never order it again. My fave so far is Crowd Pleaser 🙂
so I see this was taped in March, where are you now with this wig? do you wear it out? I thought it looked great. I would love to had a sitI down with you and you show me what wig would look good on i. I am older with lots of issues and I cannot see me in a wig that is straigh with pouf in it. It seems I look better with hair pulled away from my face, but I don't have enough hair to really make that determination. Where are you located?
I think it’s awesome on you!! I was about to purchase the Editors Pick Elite!! Now I’m skeered!! They are much more expensive
Hi Jill, where can I buy those clips you put in your hair?
It think the wig style looks amazing and the blonde hair color is nice, but the root color with this particular hair color is way too dark and invasive. It makes the entire wig look as if the person got a bad hair dye job or is over due for one.
I'm so upset because I love my Editor's Pick wig, but I decided to flat iron it for a change and burned it. I was thinking heat safe to 450 instead of 350 and when I washed it to go back to curls, it is still straight, dry, and looks terrible. Is there anyway to get my curls back? 😪 Thanks for any advice or help you could give me.
Just ordered this in Shaded Hazelnut today and I already got a shipping notice! SQUEAL! I can't wait!
Marni Coffey Sooo exciting!! Let me know what you think!
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy well...I love it! At first though, like the first hour and before I put my makeup on, I was struggling. Also, the cap was tight the whole first day, but the second day, it felt like a custom wig made with a mold of my head. And omg on this lace! It's my first Raquel Welch, but it definitely won't be my last!
It’s beautiful on you!!! Don’t fight the style- wear it just the way it’s made! ❤️❤️
To me that looks like your natural hair. It looks like you have great hair 😊I think it suits you most when you have it parted closest to the middle. I think a middle part on that hairstyle with you would really work.
Interesting because I think it’s one of your best looks in EP. I have editors pic and I loved it at first / although it was just a tad shorter than I prefer. but I don’t feel like the HD fibers lasted very well (as in not more than a few wears) and they feel so dry and course! so that’s why I don’t care for the wig anymore/ but I loved how it looked Initially. And I love the curls. Truly I think it looks fantastic on you!
What ever happened to your review on Unfiltered by RW? I swear I did see one but can’t find it anywhere
SOoooooooo cute! I love it on you. And, the bang looks adorable. 💞💞💞
As you can see I’m an ignite lover myself. I’ve had 3 ignites and loved them all. I have not yet bought an Editor’s Pick. The closest to it was the Gabor Sweet Talk. I wore it a while but couldn’t get used to the amount of hair!
Jill, the wig that you wear as your " profile" pic...please tell me what it is. I love it
This is the wig I wanted to try I’m dark drown almost black all of my life but want to try this Bob/Lob
Hi do you see the perm a tease on the top of this wig when looking down on it? I can see it on mine. ☹️
Jill, it really looks good on you and looks natural. I just got this wig in today in bronzed sable. This is my first wig purchase and my first impression was that it looked wiggy, especially in the part that is zig zagged so tightly that you see no appearance of a scalp. I saw immediately that the color was not right for me, so since I knew I would be returning it I didn’t want to do anything with it. When you first put her on, your part and everything looked natural to me. Maybe that is because it is shaded, I don’t really know because I am a newbie. I do love the curl and style and want to reorder it, but don’t know what color to get. My bio hair is a very dark brown. I don’t want a solid color but do want something to look close to my bio hair or blend with it. Would you have any suggestions?
Absolutely beautiful on you! Someday I will splurge on it. I don’t think it looks wiggy at all and the bangs are really nice. I do hear you on the confidence it’s all about how YOU feel. Not what we all see.
You are sweet..thank you, Marie! I'll let you all know how it holds up as well. ;)
I feel the same way with mine. I think it's the larger curl formation for me. Plus, one side of mine is much straighter. I kept mine, but it's not a favorite.
Looks great! It really makes you look younger I think!!
On camera it looks GREAT!
I think it looks fabulous on you and very natural. The hair line is beautiful. I am new to wigs and haven't found one I like on myself. A question I have for you is do you ever use take or glue for your wigs to keep then in place? I have a larger head and they slid around. So look great. Thanks.
Thank you, Delyla! YES..I use IT STAYS body adhesive to secure my wigs! I wouldn't have continued my wig journey without it. I have a head that doesn't want to keep a wig on..LOL and IT STAYS saved me and helped me keep on this wig journey. It is water soluble, so comes off skin, hair and your wigs easily without damage of any kind.
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy Thank you. I am headed to Amazon to order it now. So appreciate that information. Have a great day.
Hi Jill...Editors Pick was my first and still a favorite. I think it is beautiful on you, but true, it does feel a little ‘full’ at the top and that may by why it seems wiggy to you. Wearing it on my profile pic. Hope you can make it your own and see what we are all seeing as you wear it ♥️
Jill any update on your Editor's Pick journey? Did you wear it outside ever? What did you end up wearing as the MOB?? Inquiring minds need to know!
I love this on you Jill!!! I will say on my monitor the sb looks so much lighter than mine in person. I wish mine was this light! I love pastel blondes...I feel like they brighten my face and I need that at my age. Lol....Great wig and review
By the way, I mostly wear mine pulled back in an up do...I hear you on the wiggy aspect...it’s so unlike me and I don’t feel totally comfortable in it either.
I agree...I think going lighter does soften and brighten as we age. I am sure the lights I have to film with do make most colors look a little lighter than they are. I did film in front of my window w/ this one...but, I don't know what happened? I obviously must have accidentally cut it out?? OYE! Weather didn't permit filming outside this day. :(
You said you were wearing this, when showing CROWD PLEASER. I was so enchanted - it was so beautiful - I had to find your review. But you didn’t like it? You’ve changed the style - or something - a bit. I wonder if you have an EDITOR’S PICK, PART 2? I love the bang. Being new to this idea, I began to wonder, like with CROWD PLEASER, if I’d have (or if it was normal) to have to have wigs trimmed.
It seems you changed your make-up, too, this, vs. the other. It seems I’m going to have to explore lots of videos to catch up! Bless you for sharing!!!
Linda
You are an artist, Jill, and you will end up looking stunning in it. I actually think it already looks pretty, but just not defined as a complete style yet, maybe. Anyway, the piece out cream on the bangs and just leave them spikey on the forehead might be very cool rather than the elegance you usually have with the longer wigs.Just some thoughts. Can't wait to see when you have it the way you want, which you will
Wonder if this can be trimmed a little shorter.
Thanks for your honesty 🤣 I'm considering trying out a wig and this is exactly the one I am looking at purchasing. My question is.... How hot is it going to be and will it be itchy?
