The wigs I show in this video:

Paula Young Becky in Capri Copper 33/28 #4

The bobby pin underneath to tamp down the volume is genius! Seems so obvious but never occurred to me LOL Thanks for sharing your experiences, your journey and tips! You are helping so many of us cope with the trauma of hairloss!
Although I'm quite new to even considering a wig, I so appreciate your kindness, your candor and your experience. I feel like you are someone who is genuine and understanding - would be fun to sit down over a cup of coffee and share stories with! I absolutely love the McKenzie and the Finn wigs on you!! You look absolutely beautiful in those longer styles and I must add that you are a truly beautiful woman Denise. Your beauty shines from within! God bless you, and thank you...
Oh my gosh, Lorie... thank you so so much! What a lovely comment, you have just made my day! HUGS and welcome to the wig sisterhood. You are doing the right thing by going slow and watching lots of videos. 💕🤗
Ditto to what Lorie said
Finn looks absolutely amazing on you! It looks great with nothing done. Makes your face look slimmer, you look younger, the highlights brighten your face. It makes you glow. You are so beautiful!
Thank you so much! I think you are the first person that I've ever found to cover this. I still have longer wigs tucked away that I haven't worn and it's only because I don't know how to manage the hair. Really appreciate this Denise.
Finn (toffee latte) was my first wig - whoooo boy I am learning a lot with her! 😂 I have been wearing her every day, getting comfortable with it and learning about the permatease. Also, learning how my makeup and clothes work with it. Thanks for doing this series! Your contribution to the wig community is priceless.
McKenzie is just GORGEOUS on YOU!
Great video! The styling tips are really helpful but the point you made at the end about giving yourself time to get used to seeing yourself in full hair is sooo important! And that family may not be the most objective with their opinions as well. Early in my alopecia journey, one of my teen sons hated all of my wigs but hated seeing me bald even more. He just wanted Mom to have her hair back and couldn’t get past that. There’s so much emotion around hair loss, for everyone. Thank you for addressing that!
I appreciate this so much, Sherry!
Wow! Finn is fabulous on you! Great styling tips too! The “Bobby-Pin-Tuck” is Genius! The top volume has been my struggle with many of my wigs. Thanks, Denise!
You are welcome! I hope it makes all the difference for you!
I have to agree that the Bobby pin under a layer is the best tip you have ever given. I have have been using it for a while!
That is my version of striking oil in my backyard! Too bad it doesn't come with a similar financial windfall, lol.
I enjoyed this video very much! I love the Bobby pin trick under the hair! You are wonderful, Denise and you are very much appreciated! Thank you! 👏🏻💗💯🌻
Mackenzie is gorgeous on you, absolutely gorgeous!!!😃thank you for your videos
Thank you so much!!
Finn is similar to my hair when I was younger. I think Becky is so cute. I want to wear a curlier style like her, but I've been intimidated. Thank you for showing this video because now I feel brave enough to give it a try.
Great tips Denise! ... and I really love McKenzie and Finn, both so pretty! 💕😊👍
Thank you so much, Beth! I agree, they are two of the best!!
Denise you are a rockstar at this! I saw you mention the Bobby pin trick quite a while ago and I use it ALL THE TIME!! I love all the tips and tricks, please keep them coming if you can :). I appreciate you and all of your honesty and wisdom you share … keep up the great work and inspiration :). :).
I'm so glad it helped you- thank you so much for sharing!!
You are SOOOOO HELPFUL!!
ALL 3 of these wigs are stunning on you! My fav is Finn in this color. GORGEOUS 💕
Thank you so much!!!
Another great video. I struggle with every wig I have that they look too full on me. I don’t have the nerve to thin them myself, but now I am going to experience with hair pins and clips. Thanks for these tips!
WoW. Amen Sister. I can see your beauty inside and out. Thank you soooo much. You Do give us new to this journey hope. Thank you.🙏
You are absolutely fantastic! I just found you today. I bought a beautiful wig about 2 weeks ago and you have called it right. I am overwhelmed with so much hair. Your tips are so helpful. Thank you so much. I also identify with the whole "family" thing.
Thank you Denise! I love how you take your time to help us ladies with these helpful tips! I have plenty of accessories to practice and work with. You are my favorite! Always genuine! You have inspired me to be brave!
Hi Denise! This gets me so excited about working my way up to my dream hair. 😊 I’ve never had enough bio hair to “have fun” styling, so using accessories to style a *wig* wasn’t something I had ever considered. Unbeknownst to me I think I have always associated styling tools/accessories with “disappointment”. BUT now I can see that not only can I have my dream hair but I can also have FUN with all the accessories I’ve always wanted to play with.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for all the time and care you put into your videos. They are bringing me so much joy 🥰
YAY! Thank YOU so much! You just made my day and I wish I could give you a big hug! Sending virtual hugs!
@@heywigsister virtual hug right back at ya! 😊
I so get what you are saying about family opinions. One of my nephews dislikes my long Orchid and Kate in a red because he's not used to seeing me like that. My girlfriends all love Orchid so I am continuing to wear what I like and feel good in.
YES! Sometimes we just have to do what makes us feel good and not take our families comments too much to heart. Personally... I know what my husband likes (and his "likes" have definitely expanded over the years) and so when he and I are going out on a date or to dinner I try to wear what he likes, but if we are just at home or running errands or I am doing my own thing, I don't really take that into consideration and he doesn't mind at all! Hugs!
I watch you all the time now. I'm new to wig wearing due to thinning. You are so wonderful and helpful 💞 thanks for all your tutorials
A huge trick is to wear multiple joining ponies and smooth them down under a nylon cap and grip. It smoothed out any wrinkles and keeps longer bio hair smoothed down . I use a grip over this get up. Looks natural . No itch and stays put perfectly all day😉
Denise Finn is my dream hair, it is close to what my hair used to be. I haven’t purchased her yet because I’m new to this new hair journey and have purchased a few toppers and have one Paula young wig which at first was very overwhelming but now I’m getting used to it haven’t worn it in public yet but did do a zoom call with it! The wig is Gayle which is very long and has a lot of permatease and just a basic cap. I hope to soon be able to purchase Finn knowing I will wear it. Thank you for all your videos and helpful advice! God smiles through you!
Hi Denise. Thank you so much for the tips. And, that wig looks great on you! Love your necklace! Again, thank you for all you do to help with making these wigs look more realistic on our heads. 🙂
Wow, so impressed with your accessories. I had been wondering how to store my growing collection, the headbands especially are tricky. Great info, thank you.
You look GORGEOUS! That hairline/lace front is amazing!!!
Yes, Accessories are a wig wearers 👯♀️ BFF!! i Love Squarebands too. I’ve got every accessory one can imagine, lol, too many😆
You are such a great help Denise, I just love ya!!
Thank you for these wonderful tips I always learn something new.
I just cut the lace front back using the shears you suggested in your Amazon store on 1 of my Carrie’s & it turned out great, thank you for that tip, it looks so much better🥳.
Tip: Walgreens has Kitsch CUTE hair accessories on big time sale right now & they are so expensive online. So check your local stores for sales right now.
You are such a great support, Angie! Thank you so much!!
I use bobby pins to pin through cap diagonally in the back toward nape and if a nape crawls up on me I also use a bobby pin horizontally just above the nape.
Thank you so much Denise. So helpful.
Really thought that third wig looked lovely on you. It has just the right volume and length for everything to be in balance visually. Very helpful video.
You look so cute in the brown wig you are wearing!
This was SO helpful Sister ✝️Denise!! Thank you so much for these wonderful tips! The Bobby pin under the top layer is great! 👍
Now I want to get McKenzie, so beautiful 😍 Got a Finn coming & these tips will surely be used on her until I get used to all that hair. 😘 XOXO ❤️
I hope you end up loving Finn! I definitely do, but also believe she is an acquired taste and does take some getting used to. My husband even loves her now but in the beginning not so much (he called her my Farah Faucett hair, lol)
Love these long styles on you!
Yes, to all your answers!! and tips!!!
Greetings Denise! Thank you for all the demonstrations! Love and blessings ♥️🦋
You are such an inspiration...thank you. And btw I love that wig on you!
Very helpful! I can’t wait to work on mine now
Oh man wish I had seen this before I thinned Finn....it def will help with Harper, thanks
Hi Denise! This was so informative, thank you. I like all three of those wigs. Yes, time well spent! God Bless you🤗
Very helpful! You’re the best!❤
Great video Denise
Love Tip Tuesday!
That is gorgeous on you!
Great tips!! I have a Finn that I love but only when I "tame" her a bit. Thank you for posting!
Thanks to you i decided to keep a wig that i was going to send back. Love you lady
Hugs, Lisa!!
LOVE the advice on tamping down some volume!!!💕
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for the great information. Very helpful. I always enjoy your tips & reviews
Thank you so much for watching, Peggy!
Great ideas. Thanks.
I have been following you for some time, you are so easy to watch and your videos are really helpful when it comes to everything wig related. I am waiting for delivery of my very first wig, I’ve been looking at girl mono for months recently found it with a great offer so took the plunge. This video has been really informative in helping me realise that you don’t have to just put a wig on and hope for the best, that it can be styled like my own hair…stupid that I hadn’t grasped that before. You are like a virtual friend I can come to for advice. Thank you so much 🤩🫶
Great video. You are so helpful.
Thank you, Denise. This video is very helpful.
I'm so glad!
So pretty on you ! The color is stunning !
Thank you so much!!
Thank you, Denise, for all these helpful videos you do for all of us. We appreciate what you do to help others❤️
You are so welcome!
I absolutely love all your videos. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
Thank you Denise💙 All these tips were so helpful!!! Finn looked gorgeous on you✔️ #thankyou
Glad it was helpful!
I love volume, not tamping down, which ruins the wig!
I am just beginning this clip and hair accessories journey, since day one I had headbands, I do love square headbands, they are just the right size for me and don't bother my ears so I bought 3 and just used that, now i am venturing to other things, I have Codi from Amore, saw your video and loved her, my hair was like that all my life so now I just pull a bunch of hair at the top since she has a double monofilament top, I pull all the hair and use an elastic, those that look like material and the same color as the wig, people see the "scalp" and I have no hair falling on my face, even with Girl Mono I am using her with a clip at the back and a head band, I was not used to so many curls, this is priceless, many people including myself feel overwhelmed by so much hair, curls look amazing on you but they just drown me out completely, thanks for your videos, I have been following you, bought that razor and it has been so useful, thanks, thanks.
That wig looks beautiful on you.
Thank you for this video. I think Mckenzie looks great on you! I also like Finn. I bought Finn and was so disappointed in how full it was on me. I got compliments but struggled wearing it as it just didn't feel like me! I use claw clips and headbands but I didn't think about using bobby pins to tuck under the hair. Great trick! I love and appreciate your videos. Thanks!
Brilliant! Thank you! I am brand spanking new to wigs & bought both the Finn & Avalon in same colour as one you're demonstrating. I love them both so much and they look great on me... but wow! A lot of hair! I feel like my entire head is ginormous. My bio is short "Becky" but needs so much product and work. Weather and bio curls is a hard balancing act & I am over it - hence wigs. I have my units on hanging wig stands to allow them to relax, have only had them days. I have loads of accessories, so going to play and adapt to all the weight on my head. This video is beautifully presented, extremely helpful & clear. You are stunning and I am off to find a Becky in Australia. Thank you xx
YAY!!! I'm so glad you love them. I get it about the volume, trust me. There are some days it is just too much for me, and others it is perfect. It is a "mood" thing, I think. Finn ABSOLUTELY relaxes after awhile. She is must less poofy now that I have worn her a bunch. I hope you can find a Becky!!
Great video, Denise. A lot of good suggestions that are easy to try out. Thank you!
It was so important to me that the tips be easy and not require permanent changes... most of us are WAY too scared for that in the beginning
Thank you for great ideas, you are a beautiful woman inside and out, love that you take time to help other women like me💜
That is soooo sweet! Thank you!
Looks beautiful on you!
Thank you!!
I think the hair looks totally believable on you! You're young enough to get away with "big hair". But love the tips for taming it too. Whatever you prefer!!
Thank you so much!!!
Great video with terrific information. Thanks! You look beautiful as always. And bobby pin underneath to help with the goofiness was SUCH a great idea. Never thought of that one!
💕🤗 Thank you!
Very good tips! Thank you!
You are so welcome!! Thank YOU for watching!
Hi there. Ordered my first wig already. This information is super helpful. Thank you
Thank you so much! I hope you have a lot of fun with wigs, but don't fret if it doesn't feel fun in the beginning... you will get there!
I needed these tips! Thank you ♥️
You're so welcome!
Excellent tips. Especially cooked using the bobby pin on the under layer to make hair less puffy!
I know, right? When I discovered that I couldn't believe something so simple could work so well!
You look GREAT in her❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you!! ❤️
Great information. I never thought of the bobby-pin thing. That is a great trick. I use clips and hand bands (especially square bands) all the time. Thank you for these tips. 🦊 💜
I'm so glad I was able to show something new! HUGS Karen!!
All good suggestions! Newbies need these tips.
Thank you my friend!
Very valuable! It may take me a few days/weeks/months/years to fully assimilate all this new knowledge, as well as desensitizing myself and my family to me with hair, but this was a huge step in the right direction. Thanks.
You will get there (and so will they)!! Keep pushing my friend!
So pretty on you !
Thank you!!
Great tips, might try with toppers to take fullness away from front. Thanks a lot
Hi Denise, I have to tell you I actually paused this video halfway through to go and play with my Let's Rendezvous which I am struggling with at the moment. Thanks for the tips. You are awesome.
YAY!! I hope it gave you some great ideas and that you can make her work beautifully! HUGS!
Hi Denise, I’m new to your channel, I’m glad I found you. I have Avalon, and I love her she’s like my bio hair. Thank you for your videos. Have a great day!
Hi, Sally! Welcome and thank you so much for taking time to comment!! Avalon is GORGEOUs! It is so awesome you found a wig like your bio hair, what a gift! 💕🤗
Yes it was a lot of help👍😊
Yay!
Great ideas, I have that Mc Kenzie.
Hello Denise: I have been viewing your reviews since I started wearing wigs. I am so thankful that you take the time to share your tips. I just purchased Onda the new wig from Ellen Wille. It is a little much for me in the volume but i love the new colors she offers on that wig. I am going to try the bobby pin trick to tamp down the volume. Also I want to cut off about and and one half inches from the length. Do you have a video where you cut the length off a curly wig. Thank you so much for what you do. I have now been wearing wigs for over 3 years (how time flies) and I always look at your reviews when they are relevant to what I am struggling with.
I haven't delved into cutting length off a wig yet, well.... I have tried it a few times on headband wigs and definitely need a lot more practice before I can show it, lol. A curly wig will be much more forgiving, though, and require less precision. If you just need to cut a little length off I would use the razor Comb so you don't get blunt edges. It will take longer that way but safer.
Fantastic! Well Done! Hugs by the Bushel 🤗❤
Right back at ya, Michelle! 💕🤗
Love brown ones i use to have long brown curly hair just miss it how much
You really look great in that wig! I wish I was young enough for that style
I know this is cliche, but age really is all in our head. I just tuned 50 and if I think about that number it does something to me, but if I think about how I feel then I don't feel so old (I know, 50 isn't that old)....I know, easier said than done. Hugs!
@@heywigsister well I’m way beyond that lol 73 next week 😓
You’re never too old to wear what you love. I’m 67 and have Finn arriving tomorrow!
Great info:)
Thank you!
Hi Denise Loved these tips they help so much. Have been sick so trying to catching up today. You really look beautiful in them all. My favorite is Finn you look amazing! I want her but need a color that is close to Radiant Beauty my Gabor in Toasted Pecan any color you think may match.
That's a great question.... I haven't actually seen Toasted Pecan in person, but I watched a quick video and I don't think there really is a good comparison. R14/26H might be the closet as the color codes on Toasted Pecan are 18/23, but that one looks ashier than the 14/26.....
@@heywigsister Thank you Denise
Is there a wig that you know of that is a longer version of Becky? She is gorgeous! Love those curls! I was hoping to find one similar, just a longer option. Thanks!
hmmmm, I can't think of something that curly... have you ever looked into Ellen Wille Girl Mono? Not quite a curly, though...
I'm a big fan of headbands. Will a headband with clips work on a wig as shown on TH-cam videos with biohair?
I liked these ideas basically play with the wig…take selfies for later
Thanks for you comment 💕
Good tips ! Very valuable:) Who makes Finn? I like her ! ❤️
Estetica- she is fabulous but definitely takes some getting used to. My husband loves her now but in the beginning thought she was too much like Farah Faucett hair, lol.
I have a wig. That is slightly thin but then it's really long and fluffy at the bottom. It's beautiful but it's just too long for my age. And have you ever tried to cut the bottom and alsoh? Maybe maybe some kind of. Would you call feathering in it or something? I'd love to see that because I got one and. I need to try to get this one more I can wear it
But I LOVE this on you!
Really interesting. Thank you. Could you put the name of the last wig you put on. I didn’t get it. 🙏
These are the wigs in the order I show them:
Estetica Mackenzie in R6/27H
Paula Young Becky in Capri Copper 33/28 #4
Estetica Finn in Iced Mocha
Oh I need help with two things and the first is new dream hair with outrageous shine!!! I'm blonde and blonde wigs are blinding, and dry shampoo or baby powder doesn't dull them enough. What can be done? Should I wash them right off the bat, will that dull them at all. And number two is face hugging. I don't want a wig laying right on my cheeks. My natural hair bows out on the sides and my ears show but all wigs hug my face and I hate it!!! Help me!!!!
All of them look good on you. Can not tell it is not your hair. I am looking for a supplier for the V A Hospital.
The trustworthy link to wear to buy a wig doesn't seem to be working. Spreadsheet?
I'm so sorry! Here you go: heywigsister.com/f/retailers-and-stylists-who-customize-wigs
But, real human hair only!
There are SO MANY human hair suppliers out there... I haven't gotten into that myself but I constantly get messages on Instagram from Chinese manufacturers thinking I am a retailer.
Thank you so much for this video ❤❤❤🌹💐🌹💐🌹😍🥰
Greetings from Denmark with blessings! 😊👩🏼🦰👩🏻🦳👱♀️👧🏻🌹🌹🌷🌷
