Finding the Perfect Wig | Helping My Friend Find a Wig

[@CrankyGrandma]

That first wig was an amazing color on her! It looked natural and matched her eyebrows and looked great with her skin tone

[@louiseheerschap4580]

As soon as she put the pink wig on, I knew she would take it. Her reaction was instantaneous, she didn’t even have to think about it! I think the style rounded out her face and that’s why the style suited her so well. Since she doesn’t wear makeup the color complimented her complexion. What a good choice!

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...she just knew she wanted it, and it does look great on her!💕

[@HerYarnAddiction]

Can you move next door to me? LOL It was wonderful of you to allow her to try on wigs to narrow down what she was comfortable with. Thanks so much, Frani!

[@FranniesHair]

I would love that, Lisa! Better yet, how about if you come here.😘

[@deborah867]

This video was so much fun! I totally agree with your friend's choice, it looked adorable on her.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for watching!💕

[@lyricgirl45]

She’s a practical girl so Bellissimo would be something she’d wear more than the longer ones …loved the pink ❤

[@FranniesHair]

I agree. Thank you for watching!💕

[@Linda-lf1ip]

Thank you, I totally enjoyed Kathleen's journey with these beautiful wigs. When she put the pink wig on, Bellissima, wow, it was absolutely stunning. The cut, the color, and the straight-stacked bob-style fit her overall personality and presentation to a T!! I'm glad she got that one. She might also consider Bellissima in a more pure blonde, such as Hudson's color for a second or third wig! The other wig that I was drawn to on Kathleen was Hudson. Color was perfect. Loved the length and way Hudson lay about Kathleen's face, shoulders and back. She looked good and very believable, she just flowed making her a very natural look, like she was born there. Hope that helps! 💖

[@FranniesHair]

Thank you for the feedback! I agree with all that you said. And thank you so much for watching!💕

[@melaniewright2283]

Love love love Bellisima on her. Perfect cut and color for her!!

[@FranniesHair]

I agree, Melanie!💕

[@MovieJustin]

Bellisimo was the right pick! And Bill sounds like a wonderful guy. Thanks Frannie for this great upload!

[@FranniesHair]

My pleasure, Justin! I agree...Bill is a great guy!😁

[@myralewis1714]

I loved this video. The pink is a winner! The style is perfect.❤

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...I really liked it on her.💕

[@Dinainme]

The pink wig was perfect on her! Matched her fun personality and the style worked on her so well! I agree with others that it was instantaneous to her that that was the one! It was also interesting to see the longer wigs look better than some of the shorter ones but it depends how much hair and the cut because the pink wig is short but it just works for her! Thanks for sharing her journey with us and your expert eye and patience! I went to a wig shop looking for the same kind of service and they were very impatient and not nice. I had to figure it out on my own by watching videos but nothing beats being there and trying different colors/styles on. So hard to do this online.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience at a wig shop. I agree, nothing beats being able to try wigs on in person. That's why we try to provide as much information as possible. Thank you so much for watching!💕

[@Hbd2002]

Fran you do a really good job, listening, and helping her. I liked Chloe on her. It is funny that she ended up picking something totally different than what she thought. That’s why I think trying on stuff is important even if you don’t think you might like it.

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...so many times I hear that people love something they never thought they would like.💕

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Kathleen is pretty! It was fun to watch her try on the different styles and see what it did for her face.💕

[@shawnalynn7189]

Bellissima is such a great first wig! Low density, length stays off the shoulders, fabulous fibers… one of my favorites!

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...and an impeccable lace front!💕

[@katebaxter1160]

The pink wig suited her. Lovely little face and pretty eyes. Well done for helping her. ❤

[@sylviasharp8419]

WOW! Her beauty really comes through with these wigs. I’m so happy for her as she is going to enjoy her wigs so much. I too have icky thin hair and always wear my wigs with a lot of confidence. Her facial shape is very flattering in these wigs. ENJOY and God bless you.❤

[@susanwbrown2399]

I liked Avery on Kathleen, but when she put on Bellissima I was ‘yep, that’s it.’ It’s cute and fits her personality.

[@FranniesHair]

Totally!💕

[@GennaFaia101]

First of all, she is just precious! However watching her come to life as she began trying on wigs was so beautiful. I could (and probably will) watch this video again. Her face just lit up, her eyes started sparkling, it was just a true testament to how magical wigs can be for anyone.

[@FranniesHair]

I agree, Genna! I love seeing that look when someone tries on something that makes them feel good!😘

[@suzit3237]

Wonderful video. Kathleen made e great choice. She’s fortunate to have you for her neighbor. ❤

[@teenachristy977]

Hi Frannie, I believe she looked great in some of the longer styles. I also like the pink one. She really looked good in it. Her face shape is one that can wear different styles. She's very lucky to have a neighbor like you! You really helped her. Thanks for the video.

[@FranniesHair]

I agree. She can pull off many different styles, and I love the one she chose!😘

[@user-zk8ed4kd2b]

Oh, I love the little blonde wig you have on at the start of this video. Looks completely real and beautiful on you.

My pleasure, Jo! Yes, the Bellissima is stunning on her! It's a great wig...I have it in a more subdued color. It has an impeccable front lace.💕

[@daninemilligan4689]

Towhead is an old term for someone with very light blond hair. Enjoyed watching the process of selecting a wig. I can relate because I have always had extremely thin, fine hair. I have been wearing wigs for about two years, but I have a small head so have difficulty finding one that fits and that has a low density.

[@whiteroses47]

Great video, Frannie! The pink one was the very best and the length was perfect for Kathleen. Truthfully, I think the majority of the wigs she tried on were too overpowering and too long for her lovely, petite face. Plus she had to keep the hairs from falling in her face. Sure, she could use product and steam to get the hair out of her face, but she's a beginner wig wearer. However, she enjoyed trying on each wig and it's all about having fun. And the pink one is adorable on her. It's a keeper!

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...it looked great on her. She's still working on her choice for her second wig. Thanks so much for watching!💕

[@lindaharrison2844]

So fun ! Yes! The pink ❤️

[@lindaoverfelt906]

Belissima was my favorite on her! That would be a great second wig in a different color too! Really fit her nicely and was flattering!

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...so flattering on her!💕

[@joanie9043]

I so enjoyed this video. She seems so sweet. I liked seeing her reaction to having hair! I especially liked Avery and Bellissima on her. I'm not a fan of pink hair, but the style was great on her. I think that she felt very comfortable in Avery also. They were both adorable on her.

[@FranniesHair]

I agree. And Kathleen is very sweet.💕

This was such a fun video! I loved seeing her face light up when she tried on Bellisima! It was such a great shape for her face and the color! I was so inspired I just purchased a Belle Tress wig (Single Origin) in Rose Gold. It will be fun to have a pink wig.

She chose the best one. I love ur videos!

[@FranniesHair]

Thank you so much, Tina! I agree...she looked great in it!💕

[@LindaSiggs]

I think she chose the right one for her. Maybe the longer ones needed layering at the front to suit her features more. I was hoping she would try something like Esprit by Ellen Wille, light density & a kink. I am always surprised at the difference between what we think we want and what really looks best. Most of the longer ones were face floppers. Great video though. X

[@FranniesHair]

I agree...Hudson, the longer one she liked did have that one layer in the front...and it made all the difference.💕

Kathleen needs to try Envy Belinda. It’s very low density, regular synthetic and comes in gorgeous colors. She would look great in that and much less hair.

[@anitaostrander4301]

Thanks for your reply. I’ll check out the video. I’m new to your channel and I’m loving your content. I’m excited to try one of the wigs. They don’t look “wiggy” on you, but I’m wondering if nit seeing a part in the hair makes it look”wiggy”. I’ve seen women with wigs that don’t look good..what makes a wig not look good?

[@FranniesHair]

There are many factors that make a wig look more natural. So funny, I've been putting together a video that addresses just this topic. Features such as monofilament and lace can help a wig look more natural. Also the fiber type and density will play a role. If you'd like help choosing a wig, I highly recommend making an appointment with one of my stylists. The sessions are free and there is no obligation to purchase. The sessions are video sessions so the stylist can help you find a wig that works for you. They can help with measuring your head and figuring out the features that would work best as well.

[@deniseitzkowitz8436]

Great video. I was hoping she would try on your Sky that you were wearing.

[@FranniesHair]

I had considered it until she mentioned the right part...in the end she got a left part though.🤣

[@SicilyJo]

An alternative way to wear a wig cap with a wig grip is to put the wig grip on first, then the wig cap. For some people, I think it helps that the wig grip is gripping the hair as well as the cap so it doesn’t slide as easily like when you put the wig grip over on top of the wig cap. Sometimes the wig cap just slips, and it brings the wig grip along with it. Many times it’s not necessary to wear any wig cap while only wearing a wig grip. I know wig caps sometimes provided for hygienic purposes, especially when someone’s trying on wigs. Again, just another option. I am not at all any kind of expert. Also, giving that left part a chance instead of fighting and doing all the training with some wigs to get a right-side part may end up being a pleasant surprise and looking good enough with keeping it a left part.

[@FranniesHair]

Yes, I was only using the cap for hygienic purposes. I usually only wear a wig grip. She probably will too. Good suggestion trying the cap over the grip. I'll give it a try. It's funny you mention giving the left part a chance. I think she is going to do that. Thanks so much for watching!💕

[@kathybennett7560]

Loved the Bellissima. I felt like I knew what she was wanting from her description and yet was getting upset because the wigs that were being shown to her was longer than she had suggested and were not the right color and needed to be a little less density. Plus the part could have been found on the correct side because they DO make them on that side. Please tell her not to give up because there are wigs out there by various makers that will give her exactly what she wants. It’s just that there are so many options to choose from. Looke for the barely touching shoulder or bob that is shorter in nape but longer on sides so you can but partially behind ear or ears if you desire or totally behind ears. There should be model pictures to give you ideas of the style and color/length to help. Good Luck! Yours is out there!❤
