Watching this made me cry. My mom and myself have both been struggling with hair thinning and now it’s getting scary. I have been thinking about getting a wig for a while ...watching your bravery while doing this and the giddy tone to your voice talking about how the hair is so wonderful really made me emotional. Thank you so much for doing this video. Your strength is so beautiful ...and you are as well!
Eva Toney Sweet Eva, I’m thrilled that you found me and took the time to watch my very first video. Hair loss is much tougher emotionally than many think as you know. I feel so blessed that alternative hair, wigs and toppers of all kinds are available for all ages. At first I was afraid to by a wig from online but there are so many great styles, colors, cuts and support thru buying online it is the only way I buy now. Prices and choices are just better. Just check on the return policies and have fun playing dress up- trying them! You can do this.
This wig looks adorable on you! Good choice. Your smile says it all! I always feel like a new person when I wear my wigs. I've had Alopecia for 50 years! Also check out Godivia Secret Wigs. You're adorable! You go girl!
Thanks so much for your wonderful demonstration. Your wig looks beautiful on you and your happiness is the best part of it all. I myself suffer from alopecia and it gradually crept up on me until I decided I really needed to get used to wearing a wig all the time. The ease of “fixing” my hair now on a moment’s notice is so liberating and makes me very happy. I am 78 but will not just yet surrender to looking older than I have to. Congratulations on your courage to show other women how simple life can be once again without having to be embarrassed about our handicap.
Gudrun Crittendon - Bravo, Gudrun. We are too fabulous to feel anything less than fabulous, right? The convenience of having a style fixed and ready at a few minutes notice is great. No hot irons and so on. Thanks for sharing your experience. 💌
I think you are amazing to put yourself out like this. It is especially hard on women to lose their hair....it is such a huge part of who we are in our minds. I am losing my hair from lupus and another auto-immune illness....it is so sickening. Even though I am 65...and married almost 50 years...it is still important to me to be seen as feminine....thanks so much!
Karen, I love your video! I wish all my customers could and would share their story! God bless you! Keep it up, you are an inspiration to so many woman...You Look FABULOUS!
Toni Brattin -Hi Diva Model Toni, You look so pretty on QVC! YOU inspired me to try your brand and I am a raving fan. Is there a way to avoid the long hairs in the front of the cap to never break off and become short and pokey? Also what is the cleaning recommendation to keep “the girls” (my wigs) as soft and silky as when they arrive in the box? It was so super nice of you to write me. You made my day. If I have ideas for your product line can I reach out? This was my first video but probably not my last. Enjoy your evening and thanks for helping all the alepicia divas in need of assistance. Fondly, Karen
You look very nice in that color. I have hair loss to and my wigs make me feel like a whole person. I am not embarrassed to tell people I am wearing a ring. You are an inspiration💜
Toni, what is the color and number of the first wig she put on that Karen said was a reddish blonde color? I love this wig!! I don't have a membership with QVC, is there any other way someone can order your wigs. I was a strawberry blonde when I was younger, but now at 70 the gray is taking over my strawberry blonde color. The color I mostly wear now is Honey Blonde. I have cancer and am taking chemo and losing my hair. I love this style of wig and I think it would look great on me. Karen didn't tell the number and color for someone that would love to also order one. And also what is the price of the wig?
@@danajohnson1358 - You don't have to be a member to purchase things on QVC. They take all credit cards - And - Toni's wigs are also available on other websites too. Two that I know of b/c I have shopped them are: Wigs.com and BestWigOutlet.com #HappyShopping!!
You are beyond adorable! I never miss Toni Brattin on QVC and she does have the greatest wigs in styles for everyone! Like QVC, Toni presents quality in all her styles and I Iove that the different models and the show hosts demonstrate how the wigs look natural on each of them. You do look pretty fabulous in her Trendsetter style, too! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for a wonderful video. I so appreciate your honesty and courage!! Both colors look wonderful on you. As a hairstylist, I can truly say Toni's wig looks infinitely better than the 1600.00 one...whoever charged you that was really unethical. Thank you for sharing that information; you have probably saved others from being taken advantage of when in such a vulnerable situation.
I think you look just fabulous in all your wigs. You are such a sweetheart for putting yourself out there & sharing yourself with the world. Aloha from Hawaii
Thank you for your courage to post this, Karen. Prior to watching I knew very little about how to buy or wear wigs. Everything you showed and talked about was helpful. Really appreciate your effort.
You are adorable! Your $1600 wig is really cute and better yet, your experience is priceless. Thank you for sharing your story! You look so pretty in both of your Toni Bratton wigs. I may give her a try!
I'm a Leo too and you are right Leo's need their manes!! I wear wigs too, fine thin hair all my life and now at 70, even more so. Thanks for your great video!!
@@karenlipman79 spirnonlactone is a blood pressure medication that can help with PCOS symptoms, my doctor thought it might help with the hair loss too and she was right! It helped me anyways
You are SO beautiful!! I love all three wigs on you...even the expensive one. You have such a sweet spirit and it shows! Thank you for being brave to show us. You're a natural!
This is Connie and you did a fabulous job with your review so keep on sharing sis and continue being a humble Blessing to those that watch you! God Bless
Your video just made me smile! How gutsy you are to show others how to regain their self confidence and true selves again after hair loss such as yours. You light up when you try on your new hair and you look amazing. You go girl!
Thank you for doing this video. You are lovely! I am losing my hair and decided to try a wig. I had a similar experience with buying a more expensive wig that was fitted for me. It had a lace top like yours and itched and left red marks all around my hair line and I mean all around my hairline. I loved the style but I could not wear it. Since then I have bought several cheaper wigs in the $100 range. I was fitted for a large so I bought larges but I like your idea of getting an extra large. A few seemed small but not worth the trouble of sending back. I wear one of mine for water aerobics and have to wash the back everyday where it gets wet
So sorry, I must have touched the wrong key because I wasn’t done. I have several wig grips and don’t want to use glue or tape on my scalp. I love having fuller hair again. Again, thank you for recording this and I hope all goes well for you.
The Toni Braxton one is just younger and flirtier, $1600 wig it’s OK looking you look wonderful and all of them, but the expensive one has no possess, and I think you’re a lady who likes a little pizzazz
You are so brave! I have all over hair loss and I have had a hard time even telling people, until recently that I wear a wig. But doing better now, after about 12 years of wearing them! Thank you for sharing this and giving such great tips!
Karen Calvert -Hi Karen, I’m happy to help. Checkout my other videos as well if you haven’t yet. Many woman have trouble sharing their condition with others. You can do it if you choose to. 🌈
This wig is so lovely on you. The colour is gorgeous. I've been wearing wigs for 3 years now and it takes a few tries to get one that you feel really comfortable with. Rooted colours really are the most natural. You look beautiful 💕
Tattered Treasures by Pattie I have thin hair esp on the top and front. I use a coloured spray that covers my scalp. It is a life saver! I can get by 4-5 weeks before I have to colour again. But.... all that said... I went for a fitting for a bang and topper. The stylist felt I shouldn’t have that because it would pull my hair out. She tried some wigs on and wow, I was so impressed and know I will buy one sometime in the future. For now, I don’t need one.
Thank you so very much! You Look Fabulous!!! I appreciate your sharing your experience... so encouraging and gives me hope. You sold me... I am going to try Toni!
I do like this wig on you. I have been looking as Toni's wigs this week and your comments have helped me to decide to get one. Thanks for all the information.
Thank you so much for your video. You have definitely given back. My hair loss is so noticeable even indoors. I am always uncomfortable whenever I am forced to run errands on windy days. 🌬🌬🌬🌬
Thank you for going out of your comfort zone to make this video. You have a truly kind and generous soul. I do love your wigs, they look fantastic on you. This has helped me a lot.
I would never have considered Toni Brattin until I saw you. Your $1600 wig is a crying shame! Thank you for making this video and reaching out to help others... just lovely. 💕
Hi Wren- I have modified that $$$$$$ wig so I can wear it, but seldom do since I’ve found other styles I like so much better. How are things going for you?
Karen, I feel you, girl. I’m 74 and do not have alopecia but do have fine thinning hair (like my grandmother) and my hairstylist and I work hard to keep it decent looking. I’ve let my gray grow out (luckily I inherited my dad’s pretty color gray) because the dark was too much contrast with my scalp. I’ve been watching those wigs on QVC and you may have convinced me to go for it. Thank you!
Ruth Beron - Hi Ruth, Look at Ellen Wille and Envy wigs also...not to confuse you. Ellen Wille runs a bit small but wearable for me, Noriko runs too small...my head circumference measures 22 1/2. Google how to measure head for your wig. Hope this helps. 💁♀️
Karen, thank you for your honesty I am having lots of hair loss and am embarrassingly going bald. So I really appreciate your honesty and being genuine and authentic! I will give it a whirl!
Karen Lipman Wow, I have the same wig, but it seems so much darker than yours. Love it on you. If you’re used to shorter hair, I can recommend TB’s Vivacious. Thanks for sharing!
@@kathyeubanks5524 Toni Brattin has a new wig out called "Anytime" and another called "Infinity". The Infinity is short like a pixie, and The Anytime is a little longer with more hair on the side that covers the ears, or you can pull your hair back behind the ears. She ran a sale on QVC for $79 with 6 easy payments. Both wigs are beautiful but I liked the Anytime best. That will be my next wig to order, my #3 Toni Brattin!! Love TB wigs, they are great!!
I'm right there with you. I've been having alopecia in the same area as you. It's very hard to deal with. I've been looking at several videos trying to find some wigs I would love. Thank you for being you and giving the rest of us courage to do the same. We don't need to hide.
Thank you so much for making this video! It has been very helpful. You covered everything and answered all my questions about this wig. I just love how real you are!
What a wonderful video you have made to "give back" to others. You have beautiful smile to match your lovely new wig. You spread hope and inspiration. Thank you!
I’m still new to wigs, even though I’ve been dealing with hair loss for several years. I aspire to the level of confidence that you demonstrate here. It looks lovely on you.
I liked both wigs - the $1600 wig looks cute on you, too. I actually think it looks more like it could be your natural hair with the way it sits on your head. Best wishes to you!
Thank you Thank you for making the video !!!!!! I was on the fence about buying this wig style and in the red blonde, now I will go to QVC to order :). You did great, every time you get a wig you should make a video. Tony is on QVC tonight with her TSV so I know all the wigs will sell out quick.
Ok, the expensive wig looks great. I have one that the side tabs don’t come down enough either. Tried and tried , it actually slipped up...the headband I was given was hot and bulky. I don’t WANT to glue my head either . So occasionally I wear it. Like yours, it. Looks fine but isn’t comfortable for me. Now see Toni Braxtons are great, hundreds of dollars 💵 less and come in plus sizes. This on is fun and I’m hoping I can look half as good as you.
Karen, Don't feel too badly about your $1600 wig. At least it looks darling on you even though it may be uncomfortable. You're pretty no matter which wig you wear. I know where you're coming from because I have had to start wearing wigs, and until I learned about what to look for in a wig, I was very disappointed in my first two. All my best!
Liza Rosa - I’ve had baby fine hair but back in the day, a fair amount of it. When That was the case I liked this one product...but my memory is not working tonight. I’m sure the name will come to mind soon and I’ll be sure to add it in a comment to maybe help you out. ;-)
Okay Liza, The product is Thicker Fuller Hair by Cel U Plex. It is a gel serum type in a green pump. I would wet my hands a bit then use about a dimes worth after rubbing it over my fingers and then through my hair before blow drying. That way it wouldn’t weigh down my fine hair about five or six years ago when I still had enough hair to style. Hope this can help you. God bless.
I love your video! ❤️ You’re so cute! 😂 After buying many name brand wigs, Toni’s are the only ones I wear now. Sooooo comfortable I can wear them all day without any itching! And NO ONE knows!
Your transparency and smile is everything! 💞 The price on the 2nd wig was $1600? Im confused as to why it costs so much. I make my own wigs and spend about $150. You look good in both though. God bless you
Eberjo M Very good question. They ordered it to “custom fit” was from a wig boutique, and the color was ordered as well. They wouldn’t tell me the brand or maker of the wig. I was a newbie, had my son and hubby with me and they helped pick it out and would have paid $2000 to see me feel okay again after my Alopecia diagnosis. No return policy allowed. While trying on the sample wigs they wouldn’t let you even touch the wig. They handled them meaning the sales counselors.
@@karenlipman79 The real answer is that you got scammed. The only wig sellers who will refuse to let you feel a wig's fibers with clean hands are the ones trying to pass synthetic off as human. And that "net" on the front of the wig? That's the remains of a lace-front that someone appears to have cut off. There should be a wide strip of that material all along the front with hair tied into it to form a more natural looking hairline. My guess is that they got in a wig with defective lace and decided to chop it up and pawn it off on the first person who didn't know better. The cajones on those folks to charge you so much for a wig they mutilated like that...
Wow, it certainly seems as though you got scammed! Time to name and shame perhaps? If you look for Goode Shell’s fb group, she has a list of wig sellers who are not doing the right thing. It’s a private group, you will be safe in there.
@@karenlipman79 I understand. I don't think you can put a price on increasing your self esteem. Just be careful moving forward, definitely do your research and comparison shopping.
Thank you for your transparency Miss Karen. I’m a cosmetology student and this area of study is what I want to do! I wish the ladies that sit in my chair could be as brave as you! I love the wig on you and it was so wonderful to see your expression and face light up when you saw yourself! I’m sorry that the other salon made a mistake. That makes me want to learn all the more! You rock sweet lady!!!👏🏻😉
Bless you for having the courage to "bear all" to the world. I just loved your truly honest video. Truly refreshing. While I did like the colors and style of the 1st 2 wigs there seemed something a bit off to me. When you put on the last 1 I realize what it was that bothered me. The 1st 2 wigs kinda of over powered you. There was a lot of hair in them, and you seemed to get lost. The last wig let me see you. You look to be a very petite woman & that last wig let your face& personality shine through. Oh my gosh you have a drop dead smile. The last wig made you look so perky and sassy. BUT this is just my thoughts. Could you take all of them to your local hairdresser & see if she has any thought on stretching the cap of the custom made one? With the other 2 Maybe thin out the hair a little bit? Find you under all that hair. I bet she could trim them into 2 very different looks. A shag cut for 1 and maybe a high low for the other.But please don't give up on the pixie. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and consider my comment. God's Blessings/Anne
One of the best videos I have seen on wigs. Tremendous courage and honesty. Demonstrated to perfection. Put the $1600 aside we have all been through that to one extent or another. What matters is that you found a wig that looks beautiful on you. I wss actually looking at Paula Young wigs and came about your video. Familiar with QVC and Toni's wigs but not in need of one right now. Although my Leo hair is fried, gray, and thinning. Broke my wrist about 16 yrs. ago and just needed an inexpensive wig to get me through that so I found Paula Young. Love this Toni wig that you have on I am a long time QVC customer she was not on when I broke my wrist, may take a look at them.
True friends are supportive! If they get their hair styled, cut, colored, or wear makeup, false lashes or had any cosmetic/enhancing surgeries...all do e for their self esteem, it's no difference in women who choose to wear a wig...so shut those friends down!
Sue Pellerito I’m wondering if a strip of moleskin across the front of the expensive wig might help keep it from scratching. Otherwise, it looks great on Karen ,too.
Watching this made me cry. My mom and myself have both been struggling with hair thinning and now it’s getting scary.

Ruth Beron - Hi Ruth, Look at Ellen Wille and Envy wigs also...not to confuse you. Ellen Wille runs a bit small but wearable for me, Noriko runs too small...my head circumference measures 22 1/2. Google how to measure head for your wig. Hope this helps. 💁♀️
This wig looks so natural on you, your smile is so telling about how this makes you feel.🤗👍
Karen, thank you for your honesty I am having lots of hair loss and am embarrassingly going bald. So I really appreciate your honesty and being genuine and authentic! I will give it a whirl!
Diana Hartmann Hi Diana, Explore and have fun!
my gosh, that looks good on you, and WOW, did your face ever light up when you put her on!
margaret foster I do get excited! They make me ‘feel’ younger and healthier. It might all be in my mind but I love to switch it up. How about you?
Karen Lipman Wow, I have the same wig, but it seems so much darker than yours. Love it on you.
If you’re used to shorter hair, I can recommend TB’s Vivacious. Thanks for sharing!
@@kathyeubanks5524 Toni Brattin has a new wig out called "Anytime" and another called "Infinity". The Infinity is short like a pixie, and The Anytime is a little longer with more hair on the side that covers the ears, or you can pull your hair back behind the ears. She ran a sale on QVC for $79 with 6 easy payments. Both wigs are beautiful but I liked the Anytime best. That will be my next wig to order, my #3 Toni Brattin!! Love TB wigs, they are great!!
Dana Johnson Thanks for the info, Dana. I’ll keep an eye out for those. 🤗 Stay well.
I'm right there with you. I've been having alopecia in the same area as you. It's very hard to deal with. I've been looking at several videos trying to find some wigs I would love. Thank you for being you and giving the rest of us courage to do the same. We don't need to hide.
Hi Ursula,
We are too fabulous to hide. ☺️❤️
Thank you so much for making this video! It has been very helpful. You covered everything and answered all my questions about this wig. I just love how real you are!
Lisa Pickett Thanks, Lisa. You are so kind. I am working on a series of two or three on the same wig. I love sharing! Thanks for your comments.
Lisa Pickett You are a sweetie. I’m so glad it helped. I always feel like a rookie filming but think of how it might help other gals.
What a wonderful video you have made to "give back" to others. You have beautiful smile to match your lovely new wig. You spread hope and inspiration. Thank you!
So happy to help!
Even though you're losing your hair, you look really pretty! You have a nice shaped head and forehead! Thank you for the info !!!
I thought Karen was so honest and natural....she looked so good and happy when she put the wig on. Great job!
Karen, thank you so much for this video. You look good in all of them.
That is super cute and stylish!!
Thanks, beautiful
you are adorable. I smiled the whole time
Perfect color! Your a very pretty lady! Beautiful!
Cathy Amaral Thank you Cathy.
You are beautiful!! Great video! Love this style and I will purchase now because of this video
Misty Falco
Hi Misty,
Do you look snazzy? I hope you love it. Post a pic!
Thanks for your comments.
Karen
I’m still new to wigs, even though I’ve been dealing with hair loss for several years. I aspire to the level of confidence that you demonstrate here. It looks lovely on you.
R. Bennett -You can do it. It’s a decision away.
She looked so happy after putting her wig.
It looks adorable on you you made a good choice
You are beautiful ! Your humility is inspiring💕
Now that I see your expensive wig, I do like it on you. It has a natural look to it. Hate that it hurts your head. God bless you !
Thank you for being brave and giving back. I think your wigs look great on you. I also love Toni's hair. Thanks for the fun dress-up video 😊
I liked both wigs - the $1600 wig looks cute on you, too. I actually think it looks more like it could be your natural hair with the way it sits on your head. Best wishes to you!
Thank you soo much for sharing, I could just see it in your face how happy you are with the wig. Brighten up my day. You were a delight to watch.
Thank you Thank you for making the video !!!!!! I was on the fence about buying this wig style and in the red blonde, now I will go to QVC to order :). You did great, every time you get a wig you should make a video. Tony is on QVC tonight with her TSV so I know all the wigs will sell out quick.
nancy Mcneil hi Nancy,
I just saw her on qvc too. Let me know your thoughts when you get yours. Thanks for your encouragement.
Karen
nancy Mcneil Hey Nancy, Did the wig work out for you?
Love your video and the wig looks great on you!
I’m so glad that you found me.
Ok, the expensive wig looks great. I have one that the side tabs don’t come down enough either. Tried and tried , it actually slipped up...the headband I was given was hot and bulky. I don’t WANT to glue my head either . So occasionally I wear it. Like yours, it. Looks fine but isn’t comfortable for me. Now see Toni Braxtons are great, hundreds of dollars 💵 less and come in plus sizes. This on is fun and I’m hoping I can look half as good as you.
I love the way that wig looks on you! Looks fabulous on you! The color is amazing. You did a great job showing it!! Kudos to you!!
You are so sweet and beautiful.
Looks good 0n you.
Looks fantastic on you!
Karen, Don't feel too badly about your $1600 wig. At least it looks darling on you even though it may be uncomfortable. You're pretty no matter which wig you wear. I know where you're coming from because I have had to start wearing wigs, and until I learned about what to look for in a wig, I was very disappointed in my first two. All my best!
Lynne Wilson - Thanks for making me feel better. At the time I felt so dumb. It’s good that I now adjust it to fit bigger.
Karen your so cute and sweet thank you for sharing. You look Fabulous! I'm thinking about getting a wig too. You inspired me.
Lolly. create shelf Carrillo We all need a little nudge at times. 😉
Your so authentic. Thanks. I need help for my super fine hair. Funny joke about being Leo.
Liza Rosa - I’ve had baby fine hair but back in the day, a fair amount of it. When That was the case I liked this one product...but my memory is not working tonight. I’m sure the name will come to mind soon and I’ll be sure to add it in a comment to maybe help you out. ;-)
Okay Liza,
The product is Thicker Fuller Hair by Cel U Plex. It is a gel serum type in a green pump. I would wet my hands a bit then use about a dimes worth after rubbing it over my fingers and then through my hair before blow drying. That way it wouldn’t weigh down my fine hair about five or six years ago when I still had enough hair to style. Hope this can help you. God bless.
It was so fun to see the change in your expression when you put it on! You are darling!
Karen, my hair line looks just like yours. Finally, someone i can identify with. Not to mention, im a leo as well.
Sue Owens- Hi Sue, welcome to the club. It takes the courage of a lion and a village of caring people to help and keep it all in perspective. Right?

This style and color look FANTASTIC on you!!! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. ❤️
I love your video! ❤️ You’re so cute! 😂 After buying many name brand wigs, Toni’s are the only ones I wear now. Sooooo comfortable I can wear them all day without any itching! And NO ONE knows!
Karen - you have such a sweet spirit. Thank you so much for your honesty and sharing your struggles.
Looks good!
What a great post! Thank you for sharing such an intimate idea.
It’s great to see your face light up.
Thank you! We all have a first wig failure story but what matters is you you found her! The Andy (Warhol) is awesome! Your candor is worth it all!
It looks fantastic on you.... you seem like a lovely lady ☺
Totally agree with Toni your video was very humbling and moving you look great in the blonde wigs.Love & best wishes Dawnxx
Thank you! Great tip to found your hairline!
You are so kind to be showing us your softer side. Thank you.
Your transparency and smile is everything! 💞 The price on the 2nd wig was $1600? Im confused as to why it costs so much. I make my own wigs and spend about $150. You look good in both though. God bless you
Eberjo M Very good question. They ordered it to “custom fit” was from a wig boutique, and the color was ordered as well. They wouldn’t tell me the brand or maker of the wig. I was a newbie, had my son and hubby with me and they helped pick it out and would have paid $2000 to see me feel okay again after my Alopecia diagnosis. No return policy allowed. While trying on the sample wigs they wouldn’t let you even touch the wig. They handled them meaning the sales counselors.
@@karenlipman79 The real answer is that you got scammed. The only wig sellers who will refuse to let you feel a wig's fibers with clean hands are the ones trying to pass synthetic off as human. And that "net" on the front of the wig? That's the remains of a lace-front that someone appears to have cut off. There should be a wide strip of that material all along the front with hair tied into it to form a more natural looking hairline. My guess is that they got in a wig with defective lace and decided to chop it up and pawn it off on the first person who didn't know better. The cajones on those folks to charge you so much for a wig they mutilated like that...
Wow, it certainly seems as though you got scammed! Time to name and shame perhaps? If you look for Goode Shell’s fb group, she has a list of wig sellers who are not doing the right thing. It’s a private group, you will be safe in there.
@@karenlipman79 I understand. I don't think you can put a price on increasing your self esteem. Just be careful moving forward, definitely do your research and comparison shopping.
Eberjo M - Hi Yes I have learned a lot since then. It is a nice wig and I altered it so it fits much better now. Thanks for caring and sharing.
Thank you for your transparency Miss Karen. I’m a cosmetology student and this area of study is what I want to do! I wish the ladies that sit in my chair could be as brave as you! I love the wig on you and it was so wonderful to see your expression and face light up when you saw yourself! I’m sorry that the other salon made a mistake. That makes me want to learn all the more! You rock sweet lady!!!👏🏻😉
Angela Hagood -Thank God for angels like you.
Bless you for having the courage to "bear all" to the world. I just loved your truly honest video. Truly refreshing. While I did like the colors and style of the 1st 2 wigs there seemed something a bit off to me. When you put on the last 1 I realize what it was that bothered me. The 1st 2 wigs kinda of over powered you. There was a lot of hair in them, and you seemed to get lost. The last wig let me see you. You look to be a very petite woman & that last wig let your face& personality shine through. Oh my gosh you have a drop dead smile. The last wig made you look so perky and sassy. BUT this is just my thoughts. Could you take all of them to your local hairdresser & see if she has any thought on stretching the cap of the custom made one? With the other 2 Maybe thin out the hair a little bit?
Find you under all that hair. I bet she could trim them into 2 very different looks. A shag cut for 1 and maybe a high low for the other.But please don't give up on the pixie. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and consider my comment.
God's Blessings/Anne
One of the best videos I have seen on wigs. Tremendous courage and honesty. Demonstrated to perfection. Put the $1600 aside we have all been through that to one extent or another. What matters is that you found a wig that looks beautiful on you. I wss actually looking at Paula Young wigs and came about your video. Familiar with QVC and Toni's wigs but not in need of one right now. Although my Leo hair is fried, gray, and thinning. Broke my wrist about 16 yrs. ago and just needed an inexpensive wig to get me through that so I found Paula Young. Love this Toni wig that you have on I am a long time QVC customer she was not on when I broke my wrist, may take a look at them.
You’re wonderful
Great how too video. Good tips and pointers. Enjoyed watching. The wig really suits you, looking good!
True friends are supportive! If they get their hair styled, cut, colored, or wear makeup, false lashes or had any cosmetic/enhancing surgeries...all do e for their self esteem, it's no difference in women who choose to wear a wig...so shut those friends down!
Your smile says it all. Thanks for your video and sharing the obvious pleasure you have found. God Bless you too.
You look beautiful,,,,very becoming on you!
Such a great video, you’re a lovely, genuine lady. Thank you
It’s a shame the expensive one is so uncomfortable because it looks so nice on you!
Sue Pellerito I’m wondering if a strip of moleskin across the front of the expensive wig might help keep it from scratching. Otherwise, it looks great on Karen ,too.
You look lovely. Thanks for telling your story.
