10 Must Have Items for Synthetic Wigs | Chiquel Wigs

[@Debcatawba]

Your demonstrating these products is just what I needed. For new wig wearers the struggle is very real. I find that I buy the products, get them home and then I say to myself, “Now what?”. You’ve simplified it for me. Thank you.

[@scooterbean970]

Agreed!!!

[@jodivanhelsin]

Here is a tidbit for the got-to-be-glued products. always run a cotton makeup pad with alcohol over your skin before you put the got to be glued on your skin. it helps get rid of the oil and adheres way better to your skin and stays in place a lot longer.

[@chiquelwigs]

Great tip! Thanks!

[@janelensch6168]

After Christmas, my bio hair went from my head to vaccum cleaner. No life upset, no diet changes I searched details about wigs, from styles to prices. I have limited income, now what do I do? I got great success from Temu. For my personal choices, I purchased 22' length to chin length. I have always had long hair as I am 5'10" and slim. I wanted to keep my signature look. Shorter ones to do quick errands! I purchased 12 wigs & toppers. Only three were as too dark brown, too reddish and one was just very odd. I cut bangs on several, will use dry shampoo on couple and loved the medium graduated to light brown. I feel I spent the extra money for wig stands at affordable prices. Thank you for your KZbin to help us in many ways.

I love this video. Ive been on a pioneering exploration for over a year before finally confirming I have champagne taste because there is only 1 Company and 1 type of cap I can tweak enough to keep on my head and LOOK natural..so if Im spending that amount of money im going to give these units the care they deserve. I have everything i need and will keep watching and hoping for more advancements in other brands for TRUE petites. Im buying from chiquel this week. will be my 1st purchase at your new store.

I had 5 wigs when lost my hair do to chemo. A couple of the Raquel Welch true to life ones I wore often. I just struggled with the maintenance of them, although I had those products and comb. I have a small head, so felt they probably weren’t the best fit for me. A couple I had to get adjusted for me. Friends of course knew they were wigs, but others didnt…..but I still felt so self conscious and sure everyone could tell they were wigs. 14 years later, now looking for the right topper to add thickness and volume. My hair grew back so thin.

Hi Amanda, I came across your channel yesterday. Thrilled to have found you and your vids! I am new to long hair human hair wigs and have an adult teen sized head. About 20in. And 11in ear to ear. All wigs have not fit and too much density for my pixie face. My sporadic hair loss/also alopecia from a TBI in 2017 where I lost eyebrows and lash volume too, where my look transformed into hat and glasses for the past 7+years. 😳😔 You have a beautiful face and skin💕 I LOVE your lashes! Will you share how you get your lashes to look so beautiful? And any tips on brands that sell to smaller heads with long dark hair would be appreciated. I also struggle with the toppers for bangs as I have a lot of forehead real estate. Currently I have had some success with HALO’s/Hidden Crown versus full wigs ☺️ that work best with a hat because of forehead and brow issue. However! Last year I did get my eyebrows tattooed and they look fabulous!! Thank you 🙏

@@sherrysterling70 hey Sherry! Oh yay! Welcome to my neck of the woods! Happy to have you here!

[@chiquelwigs]

The Elle wig you had on is in question, I have a petite head also with a 21 inch size do you recommend having them size the piece when ordering? Thank you and love what you do.

We don’t customize the wigs. I recommend ordering the size you would need to fit your head, which would be a petite with a 21” circumference.

Is there a video with best heating tools and how to use each?

[@chiquelwigs]

Yes! Search this channel, I have a few.

[@marieroddan1395]

I see you recommend a hot straightener and hot air brush. I have those, but do I need special ones that run at a lower temperature for heat friendly synthetics. I ordered a topper from Jon Rinau in (Easipart T 18:") and am anxious to know if I require special hot air tools, or I can use my human hair tools.

[@chiquelwigs]

You can use human hair tools just don’t go over 350°F/180°C.

[@belarte7063]

This is great video,,,,! Thank U … I just want to say that I’m frustrated how synthetic wigs get so dry and ugly within literally 2 or 3 times being used,,,, I buy only ones with straight hair can’t figure out how to curl back wavy ones

What do you think of storing wigs in plastic bags? I had to do that because I got a clothing moth infestation and I had to store everything in plastic so the moths would not eat them. It also saved space. But I do prefer the wig stands.
