I have just discovered your channel!! I have been wearing wigs off and on for years and watching you tube channels for wigs for the last 8-10 years. You are GREAT!!! I so wish I live in your area so I could come and purchase from you and get some styling.. Keep up the great work. You have become my favorite YT Wig channel and I am bingeing your videos now when I should be working.. luckily I work from home!
I love your videos! Kim, that Simmer wig in that color is gorgeous on you - especially with your red lipstick! But too bad about the lack of longevity of the fibers of the HD pieces. And I totally agree about working with and or having young people in your life, it sure does keep a person current. I have young teen granddaughters who keep me up to date - it's So fun! Thank you both for this wonderfully informative video!
Wig question: Show how to use a hair filler to lighten up dark knots at the front hairline. For example, Jon Renau 12Fs8. The dark knots in the front of the wig drives me crazy but I love the blond color. I would like to thank both of you for your videos. They are very informative and helpful. I have been wearing wigs going on two years. Also please ALWAYS tell us in the beginning of your videos what wigs you are wearing. Thank you
For those of us in Europe: I just bought a Remington AS404 for just 13 euros which is also plastic. I just tested it on a secondhand wig, on the lowest setting it worked great to remove frizz from the ends
I like honest opinions too, but you didn’t ask for anybody’s opinion on whether they liked your lipstick so, I think it’s rude for someone to say that they don’t like your lipstick. I think it looks striking!
OMG i would like to see the people that criticize the way you look.....NO WAY.......I tell all my friends about "my girls"......hope you don't mind I call you....."my girls" lol.....but I was tell people how cute you allz look.....and no matter what hair you have on......you look great.......not many people can rock so many different styles and colors............hugs...

You are probably going to laugh but I followed a suggestion to wash a synthetic wig in Woolite and cool water, rinse then soak for 10 minutes or so in a capful of fabric softener. Remove without rinsing, gently ease the excess water out and leave out to dry. It worked beautifully. Am I ok doing that?
We aren’t going to laugh, Woolite was a common product for washing wigs. It makes sense since it isn’t natural hair but a synthetic fiber. Problem is it has a tendency to build up along with the fabric softener over time. If it is a wig that is just worn occasionally then It’s ok to do that, but with something worn daily and that will be washed more often it’s always best to get products made for it.
Agree on HairUWear hairspray, the only spray that truly holds, disagree on their new formulation leave-in conditioner reformulation, Restore. A shame b/c the original was weightless and left zero residue. Not so the new version. (A year or so ago, when my bottle finally wore out and I went to replace it, apparently other reviewers on Amazon agreed with my assessment. HairUWear, if you're watching, please go back to what really worked.) Going to try the other line you mentioned for texturizing as, agreed, balms only weigh fibers down and do not yield the desired hold. Thanks for the suggestions!
Yes they combined their conditioner and thermal protectant. I liked having both options as well, but I still like the Restore better than most brands. :)
Great job! Can you actually do a video washing and conditioning Like do you not wash the cap Or do you dunk the whole thing And do you just condition the ends??
Kim what color is your summer wig? That looks gorgeous on you! I was thinking of getting shaded biscuit but looking at this color, I think I like it better. Can you please share with the shade is?
I love the look of the Julia wig at the beginning of the post. Gonna see if its made in a gray.❤️ps. Saw it comes in 38, looks like brown shattered with gray. I’m gonna research that.
Would it be possible to send me a picture of Julia in color 38? I’d like to see what the front color looks like and the wave pattern. I’ve seen that different colors sometimes have different wave patterns . Thanks so much. snewton@windstream.net.
We will look at them and tell you if what you are wanting done is possible and if it is, we will do it. If it is just tweaking that is usually not an issue, but some people think they can "restyle" their wig by cutting and it doesn't work that way like it does with bio hair. The price will range from $15-$50.
I am getting protective of you two cuz you are just so cute.... knowledgeable........I want to see pix of these people picking on you......if we knocked on their door I am curious what they would look like......picking and being petty........not needed at all................hugs again
What if you live in the desert? That's dry heat. I looked up the Restore and it is scented. I need an unscented. Can you recommend something unscented?
The heat from the environment is fine, it is the severe heat from cooking, etc. that will damage the wig. As for unscented we will have to research that!
Have you heard of Helen of Troy Hot Air brush? I looked on Amazon and it appears to be much more expensive than the one you are talking about. Can you tell me the difference between the two? Both are plastic.
I would like to say to u ladies that frequent Sally’s beauty supply about my last visit there. They were very rude to me when I asked for a hair product that I use on my wigs. Manager said, “We don’t sell products for wigs.!’ Then 2 other dumb ass clerks agreed. Is this wig discrimination or what? Can’t understand why black women embrace wigs, (90% of wig wearers are black women) and its so taboo for a white woman to wear them. I get so tired of seeing balding heads on women that really age them, when they could wear a beautiful wig that could take 10 yrs or more off their age!
It depends on the length of the hair. For longer wigs it isn't a good idea to use the small brush as it will tangle more if you try to curl with it, but for the shorter wigs the larger brush won't add enough bend or curl.
Thank you young ladies for all your help. You girls do a great job and you belong together on these videos. So interesting and never ever boring.
The lipstick is beautiful! You both are always spot on in your appearance.

That red lipstick looks great on Kim! 🥰 I'm jealous!
Love the wig reviews and will definitely visit your shop when I ever make it to Dallas.
Enjoy you ladies so much. Your so knowledgeable in wigs.💖
Love you girls..🏴♥️🏴 love from Scotland.
Always such good information and being so fun to watch, thank you both 😍
I never got ANY night sweating during menopause. Occasional hot flashes but they only lasted under a minute. There’s hope!!!
Thank goodness!!! ~Misty lol
Me neither, in fact the only problem I had was with terrible head sweats and I still have them now and I'm 60 this year! 😱

Thank you for sharing!
I love Kenra products on my natural hair - it is also cruelty free which is a plus in my book.

So enjoy your video’s
Looking forward to Wednesday 😎
Have A Wonderful Week

Ladies I buy my brush at Sally’s beauty supplies. I still have the blue and grey in two sizes, I love my brushes.
Those colors are perfect for both of you, seriously can not tell those aren’t your real hair.
Kim, love the wig Simmer and the hair color on you. I like the red lipstick.
Your lipstick looks fab w that blond hair kim
Mom and I were aqua net gals back in the day. Now we use rave 4
Both of you look amazing! Thanks!

I love my Helen of Troy hot tool. Use it on wigs and real hair I do have lol.
Ya'll need to check out bioidentical hormone replacement for the night sweats, insomnia, etc....I love the pellets!
DONNA HARRELL we have, thank you!
Great job! Can you actually do a video washing and conditioning
Like do you not wash the cap
Or do you dunk the whole thing

We are doing this SOON!
Great girlfriends. Fun. ❤️loving light workers.
Thanks... your information is so helpful

Catching the replay.
It would have been so lovely to be able to hear what you were saying in this video....
I LOVE your red lipstick!! What brand and shade? I want it!!! 😁
Hurricane Red by Lipsense. We sell it at the shop because it works great!!
The JR Julia reminds me of Tony of Beverly's Hunter (which I have and like)...
Yes the face framing is very similar, but the Julia doesn't have bangs. They are both beautiful!
Hi girls how are both today love your videos....hope to make it out there to meet you guys...an buy some wigs❤️
First time here. From Arizona.
Love you ladies!
Wahoo KC Chiefs!! 😎
Are you all willing to cut, trim, shape wigs that were not purchased at your boutique? I have several that need a bit of tweaking. Thank you!
We will look at them and tell you if what you are wanting done is possible and if it is, we will do it. If it is just tweaking that is usually not an issue, but some people think they can "restyle" their wig by cutting and it doesn't work that way like it does with bio hair.

@@MimisWigChicks Ok, thank you for the prompt and thorough response! I will set up an appointment next time I am in Dallas.
What is the brown wig you were wearing?
Julia by Jon Renau in color 6/33
I am getting protective of you two cuz you are just so cute.... knowledgeable........I want to see pix of these people picking on you......if we knocked on their door I am curious what they would look like......picking and being petty........not needed at all................hugs again
We talked about that same thing...lol
@@MimisWigChicks we faux hair people gotta have a few crowns waiting for us somewhere........God I hope lol!!
What is the wig the brunette lady is wearing--sorry I couldn't hear too well. Thank you.
Hi where can I buy heat defiant thermal spray I am from England and I just can't get it
To be honest I’m not sure, here we get anything from Amazon. I wish I could help more. I will ask one of our reps if she has a resource.
What if you live in the desert? That's dry heat.
I looked up the Restore and it is scented. I need an unscented. Can you recommend something unscented?
The heat from the environment is fine, it is the severe heat from cooking, etc. that will damage the wig. As for unscented we will have to research that!
@@MimisWigChicks Well, the wig I had in the desert did frizz, so I don't know...?
Will a blowbrush like that also help with frizzy ends or is that only fixable with steam?
Used with a thermal spray yes it will help! If they get too bad though steam is the only way to pull most of it out.
Looking beautiful ladies
Where r the links to the products? Or a list of them?
Can you tell me the products you showed in this video I want to buy them from you..
I added links in the description for reference, but feel free to call the shop if you want to get them from us. :)

I love her...she is hilarious
Misty....one word for subscriptions. If you are into beauty and skincare? Boxycharm!
That’s one I haven’t heard of!!! Thank you! 😁
I have both 'volumes' turned up, computer and youtube but can barely hear you.....the ads/commercials come up loud
Yes our record level got turned down.
Have you heard of Helen of Troy Hot Air brush? I looked on Amazon and it appears to be much more expensive than the one you are talking about. Can you tell me the difference between the two? Both are plastic.
Here is the link to the one we recommend.

Could Julia be cut into a bob? I love the front better than most bobs but it's too long for me.
Would this blow brush work well for shaping bangs?
Absolutely!
Can you use the wands on non-5heat friendly wigs?
Do you mean the Hot Air Brush or an actual curling wand? The Hot Air Brush, yes...a curling wand, no.
Yes, I meant the hot air blow brush
Girls turn up your volume! Can hardly hear you ❤
Yes, very low and also, the code to Fitetc..does not work. FitFan?? Code doesn't work Ladies..
When this happens, I’ll use my earphones. It’s helps.

Well said!!!
I thought u worked together. Why do u ask, how was your week.?
There's peppy little dudes like Al Paco no in Italy****.
Every wig I've ever bought has fly-a-ways. What would be your go-to product to get those hairs under control?
Some fly-a-ways make the wig look natural! If you have too many then a little hair spray should do the trick!
On I
what barrel size would you say it the better?
It depends on the length of the hair. For longer wigs it isn't a good idea to use the small brush as it will tangle more if you try to curl with it, but for the shorter wigs the larger brush won't add enough bend or curl.
Not that loud today hard to hear the replay.
Turn up your volume
Hard to hear, need to turn up the volume
Am I late
My head itches too much. Can't abide wigs. I'm home all the time but trips to store anyway. No need to tart it up.
Ladies, the volume is low.
