Girl I’m so mad. How dare they sell a synthetic wig for that much. You could have bought 4 40” inch bundles from luxury hair company Kendras boutique. It must be so sell washing, meal cooking, house cleaning synthetic fibers. It better come with a 6’4 tall dark and handsome top.
There’s no way in hell I’d pay $500 for that wig. I think most of her clientele just doesn’t know that there’s much cheaper alternatives that are of the same quality or better. I cannot imagine even paying over $100 for a synthetic unstyled wig.
That wig looks like it belongs to three different teenage stars of the late 70's... And the final look is Neely O'Hara from Valley of the Dolls. I stan.
Jaymes is the most adorable person here on TH-cam. I didn’t appreciate you enough on drag race, but you should know that I love you and your personality.
I think the wigs only have temple to temple lace for girls who want root realness by their part but can’t apply a full lace front wig. You worked MAGIC on this wig I love watching you design hair!!!
I love this style so much! I didn’t know about the Mae West influence, I always associate it with the 60s and Barbarella. I like how you drop so many references in your videos, I learn so much about old hollywood and hairstyles!
I love this shade of blonde, and the outfit really sets it beautifully! You look as if your a star dancer in a 70's era. I can see the May West but for some reason I'm also getting Erika Blanc vibes as well.
...and NOW the WIG WHISPERER Transforms this into a CREATION by Jaymes Mansfield…..Love it...and IM old enough to see fantastic Voyage when it came out,....your Knowledge of the Oldies in TV and Movies is Admirable as well...
"Normal" women with hair loss don't have the same sort of acceptance as other communities when it comes to wearing wigs. So much of self worth is wrapped in in the feminine beauty of their hair. I personally am somewhere between a "Normal" woman and a wanna be drag queen. I'm in my late 30's and have thinning hair, that will likely only get worse as I get older. I wish I could just wear a big colorful wig for a luk, but it's just not acceptable as a teacher in a small town. I am on the cusp of having to buy my first wig, and while I agree the prices on these types of wigs are INSANE, I have to get something that will not be clocked by overly observant middle schoolers or socially conservative parents. I am hoping that I can combine the wig tips from Queens like Jaymes, and the "Karen" types.
there is a site called Amphigory that sells synthetic but more natural-looking wigs for the everyday wearer! they have a much less extortionist price point than miss Raquel. I've bought a couple from them and they have been mistaken for my real hair on more than one occasion. provided you take care of them (brushing, braiding the long ones when you aren't wearing them, etc.) they should last you quite a while. best of luck on your wig journey!
Invest on at least one good wig or two if they’re good at an affordable price but keep in mind and budget to go to a hairdresser so that they can cut them in a style that suits you, also pluck the hairline.
Black women have been making affordable realistic unclockable wigs for generations, I watch them for advice when I dyed my hair and needed natural hair for work. I trust black owned business over extremely expensive brands like this any day.
PLEASE make the petty Betty in different colors!!! I'd kill for her in a lavender or blue, or even an acid green! Just something cool to look like a space age pin up girl!
I know it’s hard to keep up! But your 22 mins were the best thing about today! Your saving us from boredom girl! Love you and your talented work! Keep it up!
You watch one Raquel Welch wig transformation video... 3 days later TH-cam recommends ALL of the Raquel Welch wig videos. LOL!! You're a joy to watch Jaymes!
I ❤️ your life lessons in hair care and genuine positivity with keeping it real working it with what you got even if that is a box an blow dryer or steamer and grocery bag 😘😘😘😘 . You are amazing I am subscribed 🥰
SHE TURNED A RAQUEL WELCH WIG INTO MAE WEST 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can imagine the "charming" Ms. Welch watching this with a fake smile on her face while stress cracks form across the lenses of her Foster Grant glasses. 😘
I have a couple of Lush wigs, so it would be really cool to see you transform some from that site some time. Also, love all the goofy editing gags you've added recently. 😁
Loved the video, I hope James can transition her character into darker wigs permanently because she is absolutely stunning in them, in my opinion more stunning than she ever looked as a blond. Love the talking wig head, let her talk always.
Congratulations on the 100k again! I also cannot wait for the Rawwview with Nina. Thank you for your patience with her from a fan perspective. Your friendship is something beautifzl to see and I hope you'll collab more often in the future Now to the subject itself: I don't really see the wig's business costing that much money looking like that, but your result is amazing as always
Haha I’m cracking up 😂😂 I was thinking the original curl pattern was kinda cute (although basic) and then you said it was serving “suburban mom in Texas” and that’s literally me 🤣 I of course don’t watch your videos to see basic hair so I live for your transformation but I just thought that was so funny! I am going to have to send a Venmo tip for that!
07:05 "It's not biodegradable -- it's a wig!" LOL I almost spit out some of my cranberry juice when you said that. My 2nd favorite part is when you reference Baby Jane =^) Allegedly that was a wig Joan Crawford had worn in a movie but I have my doubts.
I have a medical condition that means I need to wear wigs (yup an a CIS woman with a bald spot it isn't cute). When I started learning about wigs Raquel Welch and other brands are what I saw. I do own a RW wig (brave the wave) it's a nice wig but it's overpriced. After a while I expanded and discovered their are better wigs for me at a much better price point. I can get a wig I love for $50 or $100 and it will have a lot more lace than this one Your wigs are a much better value and style than this wig and the color choices are wonderful. So I haven't purchased one of these over priced things RW wigs I a couple of years. The styles you do are a bit over the top for an office setting. But that was so much fun and I love watching you do your thing. I'm very thankful for videos like yours they have taught me a ton about wigs in a fun and funny way so thank you. 😊
You have one of those pretty faces and your shape that practically goes with every style I have seen you in and color. That's hard to do be that adaptable. You are a treasure . New fan at a distance. ❤lesbo.
I am a new washer of your channel I've binge watching you for a week I love the way you do your hair styles as a straight woman I'm looking forward to getting one designed by you
Jaymes is lovely, she's the kind of woman I dreamed of having as a Mom. Someone to teach me about hair and makeup. Having to figure out how to do eye shadow correctly in your late 40's is rather embarrassing. I love your videos you are marvelous!!
Girl I’m so mad. How dare they sell a synthetic wig for that much. You could have bought 4 40” inch bundles from luxury hair company Kendras boutique. It must be so sell washing, meal cooking, house cleaning synthetic fibers. It better come with a 6’4 tall dark and handsome top.
this killledddd me akdhkah lmaooo
Same thing I was thinking, Good lord and it's not even real hair. Wtf
Lmfao!
I am not saying it's justified, but Jaymes did point out how all the hair is hand knotted, and not laid in tracks...
HAHAHAHA it literally was an Amazon wig
How does she go from a cheap looking party wig, to a beautiful curled wig to a rats nest to a beautiful wig. Magic right in front of my eyes
There’s no way in hell I’d pay $500 for that wig. I think most of her clientele just doesn’t know that there’s much cheaper alternatives that are of the same quality or better. I cannot imagine even paying over $100 for a synthetic unstyled wig.
So happy to see this woman’s face again during this terrible time!❤️
i misread and though you were calling her face terrible lmaoooo
I know right. Her and Trixie are keeping me pepped up 😍
Shes a dragqueen, not a womsn
ERIKA DOWDY OMG!!! Really?! Are you sure?!!! Thank you so much for such insightful news, you’re so clever!!!
Same ! Her and Trixie are pumping out the videos and I love it !
That wig looks like it belongs to three different teenage stars of the late 70's...
And the final look is Neely O'Hara from Valley of the Dolls. I stan.
When she first unrolled the set, I was “It’s Nasty Nellie Olsen from Little House on the Prairie!!!
My favorite part about Jaymes’ videos are at the end when she threatens us if we don’t click on the other videos. 😂
Omg sameee
Lol she wasn’t having any of that tiny front lace. No holding back on her opinion. Love it.
Has anyone ever mentioned that your wig oven looks like a glory hole for stray dogs? 😂😂😂 love ya jaymes!
😂😂😂
Jaymes is the most adorable person here on TH-cam. I didn’t appreciate you enough on drag race, but you should know that I love you and your personality.

OMG YEEES!!!! YOU GOT THAT RAQUEL WELCH MONEY HONEY!
I love this style so much! I didn’t know about the Mae West influence, I always associate it with the 60s and Barbarella. I like how you drop so many references in your videos, I learn so much about old hollywood and hairstyles!
At 1 mil, we getting a Raquel Welch human hair Tutorial? But fr CONGRATZ MA!
Raquel wig tangles?!?! THROW IT IN THE TRASH.
Just like my life.
IT'S MY REALITY .
I love this shade of blonde, and the outfit really sets it beautifully! You look as if your a star dancer in a 70's era. I can see the May West but for some reason I'm also getting Erika Blanc vibes as well.
On the wig head, when you finally knew the way you were going, is giving me Bad Janet teas from the Good Place
Sorry I was looking for Jaymes Mansfield, but it looks like Bettie Page has come back from the dead to teach us how to style wigs.
It does Look like a sad Mae West
Why don’t you come up and style with me sometime?
I just looove your beauty references, Barbara Stanwyck on Double Indemnity? Mae West? Joan Crawford? Love it, James💘
i love how happy you get from styling wigs.. literally brings me joy
Whenever I’m in doubt about anything, I always ask ‘What would Mae West do?’
You’re amazing Jaymes 💚
...and NOW the WIG WHISPERER Transforms this into a CREATION by Jaymes Mansfield…..Love it...and IM old enough to see fantastic Voyage when it came out,....your Knowledge of the Oldies in TV and Movies is Admirable as well...
Your wig vids always save me in a cosplay and drag pinch, thank you for being an icon jaymes

expect to invest a good coin on a quality wig. if it’s human $1400 minimum @whatwigs make some bomb hair
Love the Betty bangs on you Jaymes! 😍
That “Oh hell no” 😂 was everything !
PLEASE make the petty Betty in different colors!!! I'd kill for her in a lavender or blue, or even an acid green! Just something cool to look like a space age pin up girl!
Lavender gets my vote! Or a deeeep purple
My new fave binge channel!
I know it’s hard to keep up! But your 22 mins were the best thing about today! Your saving us from boredom girl! Love you and your talented work! Keep it up!
Requel Weltch? Who cares! Jaymes Mansfield's wig stole the show this whole episode 😍
You watch one Raquel Welch wig transformation video... 3 days later TH-cam recommends ALL of the Raquel Welch wig videos. LOL!! You're a joy to watch Jaymes!
I’m a man, I don’t wear wigs or make up or anything, I just watch these videos but this biotch is oddly relaxing
I literally love how you have so many references, so knowledgeable!!!
I love that you show us how to do it on a reasonable budget. Your wig oven is a life hack and a half! Xxx
Jaymes putting her fist through it luhk like the wig got prolapse!
I ❤️ your life lessons in hair care and genuine positivity with keeping it real working it with what you got even if that is a box an blow dryer or steamer and grocery bag 😘😘😘😘 . You are amazing I am subscribed 🥰
giving me Samantha from Bewitched vibes! yaas!
17:32 is giving me Elizabeth Montgomery in Bewitched vibes. Yasss.
The result is so gorgeous. I love love love the Mae West inspired hair.
It just has that shiny quality I equate with synthetic wigs and not in a good way🙃 even if it’s hand stitched that shininess never goes away.....
SHE TURNED A RAQUEL WELCH WIG INTO MAE WEST 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can imagine the "charming" Ms. Welch watching this with a fake smile on her face while stress cracks form across the lenses of her Foster Grant glasses. 😘
So happy to have seen you miss Jaymes Mansfield on Netflix AJ and the queen
You work miracles Jaymes it's amazing to watch these transformations
Have you done a video on the difference between your wigs and your "premium" wigs? Would love an updated video about the newer wigs!
I have a couple of Lush wigs, so it would be really cool to see you transform some from that site some time.
Also, love all the goofy editing gags you've added recently. 😁
You should do a *vintage* vintage hairstyle! Like edwardian or Victorian or something, I'd love to see a drag take on that.
I literally clicked it as fast as i could i love this gal
Don't vlog hangry. Keep up your strength and stay hydrated! We need you!
The wig color and style after you brushed it reminds me of only one thing. “Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!”
James your makeup has evolved so beautifully! Keep up the great work you never fail to make me smile! ❤️❤️❤️
I literally have zero interest in wigs but I watch EVERY video you post and I love them all! Thanks for being some sunshine in a fog :)
Congratulations on 100k. You deserve all the success in the world
Loved the video, I hope James can transition her character into darker wigs permanently because she is absolutely stunning in them, in my opinion more stunning than she ever looked as a blond. Love the talking wig head, let her talk always.
Idk anything about drag or wigs but your videos are just so satisfying to watch
Around the 14:40 mark I was getting HEAVY 1978 Stevie Nicks by Sam Emerson vibes!
Congratulations on the 100k again! I also cannot wait for the Rawwview with Nina. Thank you for your patience with her from a fan perspective. Your friendship is something beautifzl to see and I hope you'll collab more often in the future

This wheat color isssssssssss amazing on you boooo
I feel like the struggle of this wig was making you delusional by the end! You really did some magic on that poor girl tho!
Oof she's rich now. Beauty Gurus better watch their bad wigs she might just snatch them and tease them 😰 i mean back combing?
Haha I’m cracking up 😂😂 I was thinking the original curl pattern was kinda cute (although basic) and then you said it was serving “suburban mom in Texas” and that’s literally me 🤣 I of course don’t watch your videos to see basic hair so I live for your transformation but I just thought that was so funny!

Thank you so much for following through on your promise. Love ya and your vids. You're so good at what you do
Girl the wig right after brushing was giving me Sissy Spacek in Carrie realness especially with that color
You have one of those pretty faces and your shape that practically goes with every style I have seen you in and color. That's hard to do be that adaptable. You are a treasure . New fan at a distance. ❤lesbo.

Thanks Jaymes this was so much fun. BTW big fan of the wigs in Hollywood too.
I am in love with those curls after you brushed them out.
Literally, I had no clue where you were going with this one til it was on your noggin. You really made it work.
This wig is giving you hell girl.
"It's not biodegradable! It's a wig!" lmao
Love you in black hair James!!!! You look beautiful! Much love from AZ 🌵
There’s a product for knitted wigs that you spray on the knots to keep them tight so they don’t come undo
the curls you did to it 😍
I love how Jaymes says Double Idemnity instead of Double Indemnity. So cute.
I am a new washer of your channel I've binge watching you for a week I love the way you do your hair styles as a straight woman I'm looking forward to getting one designed by you
Jaymes is lovely, she's the kind of woman I dreamed of having as a Mom. Someone to teach me about hair and makeup. Having to figure out how to do eye shadow correctly in your late 40's is rather embarrassing. I love your videos you are marvelous!!

I absolutely Love you , You are my inspiration! LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR videos!!!!!!!!!!
