The curly wig was nice because it's a really different look. The last one l would trim the bangs (for me) as l am older and like to hide the forehead wrinkles. I might also do a thin braid on each side if it is still too thick. But we all like to customize our own way.
I have watched many of your reviews in the few short months since I began exploring wigs, and I got the distinct impression that you were definitely holding back your true feelings about the overall fit, feel and style of each and every wig. They do NOT compare, IMHO to any of the other brands I have been exposed to, and seem a completely different caliber. I DID just buy a sale price Rene of Paris, luxe sleek having seen it reviewed in marble brown and felt it fit and flattered -- unlike these three you reviewed for us. I hope I am not terribly disappointed when I receive and try it on. Kudos to you for not 'giving' away what seemed to be surprise, and disappointment in these three styles.... FWIW, your reviews are fantastic and have been so very helpful as begin to learn about all the options available. 🙏
I know there are many people who really like Rene of Paris. Of the 3 here, style-wise, I liked curly one the best. I try to give my opinion about features, fit, and fibers, etc. The style may not look good on me, but may be for someone else. I know people aren't that concerned about what looks good on me...so I try to keep the comments to what would be helpful to the viewers.I didn't love the straight styles on me at the time. I have since been embracing many different styles. I think the more you wear wigs, the more you can see yourself in different styles. I hope you love your Luxe Sleek...please let me know. Thank you for watching!💕
@@FranniesHair You are the best :) I DO appreciate you trying styles outside your range of preference so we can see greater variety...AND it was a treat to see a style that SEEMS to check many boxes (Heat friendly, extended nape, quality-ish fibers, nice colors, etc) AT A VERY AFFORDABLE PRICE. My first 3 ever wigs (Alive, Miely Small and Melody) are all Ellen Wille (as I run ave/petite) but I have a simmer elite petite in sunlit chestnut arriving shortly, along w the R of P luxe sleek. Jon Renau has a few tempting shoulder length long shag/sassy layered bobs that may fit my smaller head. Did I say how much I enjoy your reviews? MUCHO. Thanks again.
Greetings Frannie! Well all three of these look great on you! I love that last one because of the color. Thanks for sharing them. Love and blessings ♥️🙏
Thank you, Jean! This was my first experience with Rene of Paris. I don't think that this is the right brand for me. It's a process of trial and error.💕
I really love you in curls. Yes, you might want to keep pulling them down to relax then a bit especially in the back, but they suit you. You'd probably like it better closer to your blonde color. But think about it. Really nice. I love this style for myself although never gone this short. I'd try it but I'm very much like you, sensitive to the itching.
Thanks Frannie, so very interesting. You look good in all the wigs. But that curly wig looked so different than the stock photo. Maybe over time it would relax. I actually loved the last wig, the reddish one. Very sleek and even though it fell forward, I think that could be fixed too, like you said, with styling. No wigs for me yet, but I love watching your videos.
It's so interesting how some wigs look so different from the stock photo. I guess they are also trying to show you the possibilities, but it could lead to some disappointment. That's why I like watching wig reviews. You get to see what the wigs actually look like.❤️
Enjoyed your review as always. Regarding glasses, I appreciate the you putting on with the wigs. I wear glasses all the time. When I tuck them under the ear tabs and over top of ears they are secure but after hours of wear I sense pressure. Wearing them over the tabs they are ok but tends to alter the vision a bit due to change in lens angle. No happy medium 😂. I make it work
Thank you, Brenda! If you don't mind, I'm going to share this info. with the viewers. And I'll try glasses on both over and under the ear tabs. I never wear glasses with mine, so I wasn't aware of this.❤️
Hi Frannie, I appreciate you putting so much time, money, work and care into these videos. I am particularly interested in the Paula Young versa fiber integration piece.I have got to tell you that I have had a couple of those through the years. I have an illness that causes me heartbreaking hairloss at times. So now, once again I am looking for some lighter weight helper hair for summer. I am so glad I saw your video on that piece
I'm do glad you found the video helpful! I didn't see your comment until now for some reason. I'm so sorry to hear about your illness. Have you also looked at low density wigs?
Sorry I sent message before finished. The great thing about these wigs is they are ideal for us folks whose bio hair is spars and we feel like a full wig is too wiggy. Also lots of ventilation and I was able to feel more confident because I could integrate my front hair. My previous ones had bra type adjusters. I never had a problem with these pieces feeling loose or slipping at all. Now, what I want to know ehy more wig companies are not offering more truly low density pieces just as Paula Young is doing? I feel its an untapped resource.
I agree...it is an untapped market...even just much lower density wigs. It's great to hear the integration wig worked out well for you. I need to play with it more. Thanks so much for watching, Nancy!❤️
Looks like the second was made to women of color since the lace is dark . Ive seen videos of women bleaching the knots which may help the wig. Personally I love that curly wig!
The first wig is nice. The second one is way too curly and if I’m being honest, it’s the first wig that doesn’t look great on you. The third wig reminds me of people that wrap their hair behind their ears.
This is a great question. I know that open wefting is cooler and more breathable. I don't know the advantage of not having open wefts...except in the case of hand-tied or monofilament tops. I'm going to do a little research...this is the first cap I've seen like this.
I was surprised that you didn’t use a crochet hook to pull hair through😂 It looks good but, with the amount of time it takes to pull your hair through, plus the inability to secure it kinda defeats the best part of wearing a wig, time saving! Cool concept, just not very viable🤷♂️ Thank you for showing this for us!!❤❤❤
Honestly, none of these impressed me. The first one was okay, the second one was cuter as time went on and the last one was a big no. None of the 3 did a whole lot for you, although the first one looked the best. The second one could be fun at home maybe, but that's just my opinion. I got a reddish auburn curly wig and my FedEx man wouldn't even make eye contact with me, the mailman acted like I always looked that way and the UPS guy smiled at me in a strange way and I was happy to see him go.My friend loved it, but said I would probably get arrested if I wore it to town! It's an at home only wig since my cousin commented something similar to my friend and I have to agree with them. I feel a bit wicked when I put it on. 💕💕💕
Sorry to give you a bummer review but I didnt like any of the wings on you. You looked si much better in the previous ones. For myself personally I really like the shirt pixy one you tried in when you were on with your sister. That is more my style. I would consider buying it if you have it for sale. I'm really enjoying this section with the wigs in your videos.
I love your honesty, and I agree with you. This was my first experience with Rene of Paris, and I don't think it is the brand for me...or maybe I just chose the wrong wigs from the brand. It really is a trial and error process. I'm so glad you're enjoying the wig videos. I'm enjoying making them.😘💕
Great job as always Frannie! I have to say for the very first time, the wigs you reviewed today just weren't very attractive on you. Typically, I love anything and everything on you because you already have such a beautiful face. The first and the third wigs were just too dark and too long and straight around your face. Please forgive me if I say that the last one, especially if it were any longer, reminded me of Morticia on the Adaams Family. Honestly, after the initial shock, the second wig was adorable and I would give an arm and a leg if they carry that particular wig in a strawberry/golden blonde highlight color. It would be exactly like my bio hair in better days gone by.😔 Great job! Thank you for all of the hard work and all of the time and money that you invest on our behalf.🤗
I love your honesty, Deborah! I agree with you. These were not good on me at all. I had promised people that I would do some darker colors and different styles.😁 I'm sure you can get the curly style in other colors. I don't currently carry Renee of Paris, but I bet you could google it. Thanks so much for watching!😘❤️
Thanks for showing us some brunette colors. I have found that Renee of Paris feels smaller on my head than other brands.
Good to know, Kathy! I have many women looking for smaller wigs.❤️
The curly wig was nice because it's a really different look. The last one l would trim the bangs (for me) as l am older and like to hide the forehead wrinkles. I might also do a thin braid on each side if it is still too thick. But we all like to customize our own way.
That's the great thing about wigs. When you start styling it the way you would your bio hair, they start to look even more natural.😁❤️
Ohhhh that curly wig is beautiful 😍 I love it. Looks like what my bio hair used to before my hair loss. Thanks for reviewing these ❤️
Wow! I always envied people with bio hair like that.❤️
The 1st wig looks very real and natural.
Yes, it wasn't too dense. I didn't love the style for me, but I could see that it would look good on others.❤️
Hi Frannie. Thank you for these videos. You are so kind and I love seeing your family
Thank you, Brenda! It is truly my pleasure! And thank you so much for watching the videos and supporting my channel!😘❤️
I watch you all the time, tell your sister Sharon she looks good with shoulder-length hair. You are very informative I just purchased my first wig.
Thank you, Rauna! 😘 I will tell her. Which wig did you purchase?
@@FranniesHair I don't know the name of it I just purchased it from Amazon.
The wavy wig is nice on your face shape.
Thank you, Muriel! The curls are fun...especially since I always wanted some.😁💕

Hi Franny. Nice to see you today. Thanks for sharing these very informative wig videos ❤
My pleasure, and thank you for watching them!😘❤️
The second one definitely my style soo awesome
That was definitely my favorite of the three...not sure I could pull it off...but so much fun!❤️

That could be...and the roots were very dark. The curls were fun...although, not what I usually wear.❤️
Thank you Frannie
My pleasure, Ann!❤️
Hi. I love your videos! I would like to see more short wigs and in white but not like an older woman style. Thank you!
Great idea...I will add that to my list. Thanks so much for watching, Betty!❤️
Would be helpful if you said if a warm, cool or neutral leaning color
Hi Diane, this is an older video...I have since added whether or not colors are warm or cool. Thanks so much for watching!💕
I'd glue felt on the lace eartabs and nape if it bothered me.
Great idea, Kathy!❤️
You look about 30yrs young in the curly wig. Can you put moleskin on the back and ear tabs? I love the curles you look great in it!
I hadn't thought of moleskin...good idea! Have you done that? 30 years younger?! I'm definitely going to have to try it out on my husband.😂💕
The first wig is nice. The second one is way too curly and if I’m being honest, it’s the first wig that doesn’t look great on you. The third wig reminds me of people that wrap their hair behind their ears.
I agree with you, Verna...so far Rene of Paris is not a brand for me.❤️
Hi Frannie is it good or bad to not have the open wefting?
This is a great question. I know that open wefting is cooler and more breathable. I don't know the advantage of not having open wefts...except in the case of hand-tied or monofilament tops. I'm going to do a little research...this is the first cap I've seen like this.

I agree with you. I should have used a crochet hook, but I like just throwing on my wig.💕
Can someone with a widows peak wear a lace front somehow?
Yes, you may see a little of the peak. Check out Taz’s wig closet…she has one.😁❤️
@@FranniesHair Thank you so much!
