I know exactly where this is ❤ I'm so happy to see the community highlighted!! I'm an African American woman who raised my children in Rosedale, Queens, but Five towns, Lawrence and Cedarhurst were central to their upbringing. We spent so many weekends on Central Ave and at Cedarhurst Park ❤❤ I love to see this
I do that too, but I’m not Jewish. I think my natural hair is kinda lame after my thyroid condition so I wear wigs and if you see my natural hair that means that I like you and feel comfortable around you. It’s rare to see my natural hair. My hair is Afro though.
Hi Sonya, You look great in short hair. It’s very perky and vibrant on you. Thank you for taking us into that store. I must say I pass it all the time, but always have been too intimidated to enter. Thank you for taking us into a world that we would never have been in before otherwise.
I love this fun change of content. As a non-Jewish Black woman it was interesting to learn why & how you use wigs due to faith. Even hearing the lingo change was cool. I'm used to hearing lace front and unit (i.e. wig). I don't get some of these comments maybe because I'm Adventist and not Jewish🙈Anyway, I really enjoyed this and looking to buy from them online since I live in Chicagoland and/or visit when traveling near their store location. People wear wigs for many different reasons outside of religion (i.e.health, fashion, protective styling or during cancer treatment) so I hope others can respectfully see that you are bringing business to this company while teaching us/me something. You look great in long hair but maybe play with the short hair for hubby😉🤭🫣Sending virtual hugs to you sis😘
HI, non-Jewish Black woman🥰!!!!! it is lovely to see your comment. As a jewish woman I can tell you that I don't cover my hair with a wig, but with a head cover- like fabric or some sort of scarf. I find it ridicouls (?) correct (?) (live in israel and speak hebrew thats why) to cover my hair with hair.... it is much more beautiful amd attractive than my own hair, so i wonder how it is faith....
I appreciate the in-depth information. How we all manage our lives is our own. I find it educational, leading more people to be more respectful because they understand better.
I've always had such an interest in the culture and how wholesome family is. The covering of your hair and the meaning behind it is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this particular experience.
I have lupus and it’s caused me to lose my hair right in the middle, I look like a Benedictine Monk! 😊I have got a couple of wigs but they don’t look good, now I’ve watched this I’m going to find a professional hairdresser that specialises in wigs, and get something that I will like. TY Sonya ❤
I dont understand covering your hair with hair. Seems weird to me. I can understand covering your hair with a hat, but with hair? Might as well toss the wig and wear your natural hair. Just doesnt make sense to me. Actually kind of pointless. No disrespect. I just dont understand😐.
Sonya, I love your content. You are always so upbeat and your family appears happy. I am not Jewish, but have recently thought about wigs due to thinning hair. Thank you for this information. I watched another of your episodes on wigs and head coverings which I enjoyed very much as well. Thank you for sharing your life and family with us. Much love from Texas! Oh, and the shorter wig was fabulous on you!
Thanks, Sonya for the wig information. You would be gorgeous with a paper bag on your head ... but the wig b/t chin and shoulder length (2nd?) is perfect for your delicate features and length is not pulling down your face. ❤
All the wigs looked stunning on you, I really loved the chin - length bob, it was so cute! Very interesting and informative. This video could also be we very helpful for someone who needs a wig for non-religious reasons, such as hair loss due to alopecia or chemotherapy.
I never realized you wear a wig. So natural. Informative too because I thought only Hassidic Jewish women wore wigs. Thanks for the education! You are amazing.
It can be very confusing to people why you would wear hair to cover your hair. On a practical level, Jews have always been persecuted and an easy way to avoid harassment and violence is to blend in and not make it obvious that you are covering your hair as a Jew. A beautiful spiritual reason I heard is that when a woman gets married, the kedusha (holiness) of the marriage rests on the crown of the wife's head, and covering it (with anything, including a wig!) protects and shields the kedusha ❤ I always thought I would wear only mitpachot but I just bought a fall 😱 I'm planning to just wear it for weddings and nice shabbosim, but I'm kind of obsessed with it?!?! I never thought I'd own a wig I'm freaking out (you could even say I'm wigging out! 😂)
I never think I can wear a wig either, we are mennonite and that is not a thing we do, we always wore head veils but I am curious, do you wear a wig and then a covering/scarf both? That would seem really hot and itchy.
@@pommom-cm1ej personally I wear one or the other. On a daily basis I wear just a scarf, but for nice occasions I'll wear a fall with a headband. I know some women will wear both and I don't know how they do it hahaha
Sonya, I would love it if you could make a video like this but for older women. I have thin hair so I can cover it with a larger base topper. However, at some point I will need to transition to wigs. Being in my 60’s, I want a wig that’s not so dense as to look fake for my age. I know there are other women like me who could really use some guidance. Thanks. I loved you in the shorter wig. Maybe when you are ready for a change.
Good morning, sweet Sonja! It is 8:30 a.m. here and I'm sorry to say I may not be able to watch the video until later today - I am going to my son's house for Father's Day today and picking up my granddaughter! Wishing your wonderful Shai a very HAPPY FATHER'S DAY and I hope your family has an absolutely wonderful day ahead! You are truly the best, Sonja, and my love and blessings to you and your family!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
First and foremost Sonya, beauty comes from the inside out, and it shows through in you! Second it is awesome that you are a mom of five, wife to Mr. Prep, professional health care provider and yet you don’t lose yourself in those roles, and instead accentuate your individuality with amazing self care! Third, GET that lace wig with the shorter hair for summer! It was a great, care free, youthful look! You can be careful with it - just think of it as the most delicate puff pastry you cook on your channel and voila! PS Tell Mr. Prep not to be jealous as I am a gay jewish male, so therefore I am well qualified to dispense beauty advice heheheheheh! Hugs, Michael!
Thank you for posting this. I’ve been thinking of wearing wigs. This is at the perfect time for me. The pretty shoulder length Bob was very pretty for you. It accentuates your lovely eyes and face.
All of the wigs looked amazing on you, @SonyasPrep ❤! I like the long and the shorter style! I love watching all of your videos and I’m continually praying 🙏🏻 for you, your family and friends; your community ✡️and Israel 🇮🇱 and the IDF 🙏🏻
They are all beautiful. I wear wigs because of hair loss and thinning. I wear the synthetic wigs because the maintenance is so easy. I use the Milano wig grip, too. I have a hat wig that is so comfortable. TFS
Really enjoyed this video,loved you in a short sheitel...looked awesome...I have sheitels,but I don't wear them often...I find headscarves,hats,etc more frequently...for work I need to wear a headscarf or hat...Shavua Tov and Chodesh Tov! With love from Israel
Thank you so much for sharing this really great and interesting video. You looked beautiful in all of the wigs. I really love seeing your enjoyable content and I hope you and your family have an excellent Summer and I cannot wait to see what cooking videos you have coming up. You are amazing at cooking. Take care and much love Sonya, you are the sweetest! ❤
You look very pretty in the short hair wig. I think the long haried one you tried right after the short one was pretty to but needed highligts to fit you perfectly.
Hi Sonya, I live the short page boy lace top. You look nice in short hair. I haven't been on your channel in a while. Hope you and the family are doing well.
A very interesting video. You look beautiful in the shorter wig. Maybe at some point you could get it and have some highlights put in. On days when you wanted a change you would have a whole new look.
Really loved that shorter wig on you. I think it was a playful look, really nice for summer. Looked fabulous on you. Also that lighter colored wig was also very flattering on you. Something I learned in cosmetology school, and noticed since, was that as a women ages (not saying you are old, nothing like that at all!!) But a person's skin tone seems to change and darker colors no longer looks as good on a person. (Maybe thats why G.od created gray hair lol?) So we were told that when a women wants to color her hair to go 2/3 shades lighter. Its not a big change, but its enough to flatter a women. Real dark hair can look harsh on some women. I've gone gray now and love it. I say its my natural blonde highlighting. Lol 😆 🤣. As much as I live those wigs, not sure if I could wear one. My hair is very long, not sure if I could fit it all under there. Lol
About 30 years ago i lost most of my hair due to chemo. A friend had a wig designed for me and gifted it. What a blessing. My hair did eventually grew back, but i still have my wig. I am curious...how does one tuck in or have your natural hair under the wig. How long could one let their natural hair get before its too much. Would a short bob be more practical?

Couldn’t even wait until the end to say the lace, short wig!!!! You HAVE to get that one. You look beautiful in that one!!!
The short hair wig looked SOOOOO good on you!!! You were glowing in it as well
Sonya, The lace top short wig looked amazing on you! Thanks for sharing.
😍😍😍 I loved it too

Sonya explains the reason why at 1:38, it is part of the Orthodox Jewish customs.
It's just a custom, man made custom has nothing to do with the word of God. There is no scripture to back this up .
No mitzvah on avoda zahara
I truly enjoyed this! Thank you for sharing❤❤❤
So glad!
Hello Sonya, very interesting shopping. Its great to see you try on the wigs, and see how just a different style can make your face shape change.

The short is the cutest...love it.
This was so much fun! I love the shoulder length wig. I would never guess it was a wig as it looks so natural! ❤️❤️

yes many salons, such as this 1cater to clients with alopecia and those undergoing chemo as you mentioned
I never realized you wear a wig. So natural. Informative too because I thought only Hassidic Jewish women wore wigs. Thanks for the education! You are amazing.
I hope you got the shorter wig; it looks beautiful and so put together! 😊

I LOVE the shorter hair wig you tired on; very flattering to you !!
I like it when your head is covered with a scarf, modesty has a special beauty
Thats my most favorite way as well and what I do 99% of my life
I cover my head through choice and I love it! I'm not saying you have to. I'm saying please respect my personal choice as I respect yours!
Sonya love love love the short wig on you.. you're beautiful in all lengths...the color on the last wig (highlighted) is gorgeous on you!
I like the first wig with the short hair. You look so nice. Thank you for sharing about the picking and wearing wigs.
You rock the short wig! It's a YES!!
hahaha thank you
The short wig looks so cute on you! I also find the slightly lighter or highlighted wigs very flattering.
You look fabulous in any wig but the short hair looks beautiful on you!!!
OMYGOODNESS!!! I love the bob wig on you! It’s beautiful!
I love your new wig, and thanks for all the information, Sonya.
That short one is stunning on you!!! I’m partial to long hair but you pulled that sassy shorty off my friend!
The short hair looks wonderful on you! I also thought the highlighted long one looked great too!
It turned out beautifully! Love the short one, too!
Thank you! 😊

Dear Sonya....you need that shorter lace front wig!! Thank you for sharing.
They are all beautiful. I wear wigs because of hair loss and thinning. I wear the synthetic wigs because the maintenance is so easy. I use the Milano wig grip, too. I have a hat wig that is so comfortable. TFS
The short wig brings out a beautiful pixie side to your looks. You're lovely on the inside so the hairstyle is just "frosting"

Such an interesting video Sonya - thank you so much. You looked stunning in the short bob wig 💖
Watching in West Wales, UK x
Loooove the shorter one!!
You look fab in shorter lengths too , personal preference here girl
Love the highlights on you
Sonya you would look good with short hair 😊
A very interesting video. You look beautiful in the shorter wig. Maybe at some point you could get it and have some highlights put in. On days when you wanted a change you would have a whole new look.
yes, 1 day...
Sonya, Get the shorter wig.? You look gorgeous!
I like to keep it simple and always wear a snood or tichel. My rabbi is against wearing wigs.
Really loved that shorter wig on you. I think it was a playful look, really nice for summer. Looked fabulous on you. Also that lighter colored wig was also very flattering on you.

Oh how interesting. It really makes sense though
Love the short wig Sonya. It suits your face very much. Could you try curls?
Yes I can
With a scaf next please
About 30 years ago i lost most of my hair due to chemo. A friend had a wig designed for me and gifted it. What a blessing. My hair did eventually grew back, but i still have my wig.
I am curious...how does one tuck in or have your natural hair under the wig. How long could one let their natural hair get before its too much.
Would a short bob be more practical?
I love the short length
I would have liked to hear how much the wigs cost. You looked amazing in everything you tried on. I love the shorter look on you!
Yes, I would like to know a ballpark figure for a natural hair, everyday wear wig. It would help for comparison shopping.
The cost of the wigs varies . Typically depends on style, length and color of wig. It ranges from 800-4000. They’re more expensive more wigs out there
I prefer the lace wig option
The wigs look beautiful. I’m curious why there aren’t any curly wigs? Is it hard to maintain the curl over time?
