NEW! Wig Chat / NORIKO Reese & Noriko KATE Chocolate Frost R / WIG COMFORT

[@FrancesHart99]

I appreciate the way you nurture new wig wearers. People can be put off with a bad wig experience and feel they can’t do wigs, it’s too hard , too expensive or to uncomfortable. It’s so important to put first those new to wigs, often in the midst of painful emotions over the loss of their hair and possible medical, hormonal or psychological challenges. They’re going to see your videos before they join an online support group. I wonder if you could line the hairline with old, stretched out wig grip material, for comfort and grip. I bought a 23 inch head stand to stretch my wigs. Once stretched Noriko can be comfortable.

[@lynnewilson6870]

Jill Thanks so much for letting us all know about "too much hair". I experienced that same feeling when I was referred to a wig shop. The lady put Raquel Welch on me (Sparkle) and I was totally shocked and dismayed because it seemed like way too much hair. Now that I've gotten used to it, I really enjoy it, and my friends say that it makes me look younger, than my thinning hair did. Today, ten months later, I absolutely love this wig. I'm so glad you covered the "too much hair" topic for all those thin haired ladies that are trying wigs for the first time.

[@catherinemartin4040]

Hi Jill, Yes, your perspective is always interesting and helpful. I have a Noriko May in Chocolate Frost R ... I have found ways to deal with the issues you struggle with. I cut off the adjusters, then I snip the wig right where the outer edge of the nape meets the cap. I sew a 1/4" piece of the elastic (from the adjusters) into the space to create more room for my circumference. This keeps the wig from being too tight. Also, I sewed in fabric -- the same type of fabric as the wig grips are made of -- into the cap along the perimeter. This helps with the itch-factor, plus I am able to use It- Stays to adhere the piece to at the front of my hairline. It works wonderfully. I hope these ideas work for you. Good luck! Cathy

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Catherine Martin great ideas! I did actually ponder sewing in some wig grip fabric into the perimeter to help the itching and act like a wig grip so I wouldn’t have to wear one!

[@ServantOfJesusChrist777]

Thanks for the ideas

[@mgcap-p6v]

Great idea💡 !

[@mileetn]

Yes I always ship mine off too!

[@mistyfalco8980]

Your teaser has driven me crazy all week!! I didn’t think you did Noriko wigs!!! Love chocolate frost on you!!

[@niarosser-hughes327]

Looks very natural. A good colour for you. Thanks for the useful information 👍

[@soniaclarke1171]

Thank you for your very informative videos. My hair has gone so thin, that if the wind blows it up it stays up. Now wearing wigs and have 3 so far. Love the long straight part of the wig at the back of this one and the colour on you. I went to a shop in Manchester UK to but my 3rd wig. Safer than buying on line.

[@dianareddell1496]

Really lovely wigs on you. The color is perfect for fall and looks so natural on you. I esp love that second wig.

[@melaniesimpson6322]

Loving this chocolate frost R... I'm a blonde lover, but am dying to try this color. So pretty on you. And I'm one of those who tried a Noriko wig for my first one...lol...It did seem like a huge amount of hair, but I got so many compliments on it, I never looked back. Love your reviews and chats!!

[@SSsmith24]

Melanie Simpson,,,Oohhhh I love the Chocolate Frost ,, it is Really Nice 🥰

[@amiradeshon5501]

I just really enjoyed watching this video. ☺ I like the Target headband..

[@deniselebeau9874]

Those are both adorable wigs....I just totally cut out the adjustable tabs with the metal being cut out also...it all has to go and then I secure with a few bobby pins and I am out the door. I hope that helps you. Love your reviews and you do look adorable in everything!!!!!

[@elainebogdanski2119]

I just love you Jill! You look great in everything you put on. I found toppers through you, and will not purchase anything unless I check your videos first. I feel like a different person since I’ve been wearing them. Thank you, I wish you lived next door. 😊 keep your videos coming.

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

You are so sweet....thank you!

[@rebeccaflowerbeck9894]

Noriko wigs are definitely my preferred brand. I love the fullness of the wig, and it is pretty natural. Most of the time, the average person wouldn’t know it’s a wig.

[@joycewickman1148]

you're so right about the "wiggy" feeling. My "first" wig is a "Director's Pick". It was bouncy and clumpy and no matter what I did, it looked awful. I'm still working with it and thinking of straightening it! Thanks for your great videos! So helpful!.

[@heywigsister]

Adorable, Jill! Great video. I don't have a lot of experience with Noriko wigs, but I have a Mane Attraction basic cap and an Envy basic cap and It Stays works well with those... wonder if Noriko is made with a different material.

[@tammybrock5366]

Omg I love you in the darker hair. You look so beautiful. I just got my fill in powder you recommended. I can’t wait to try it. Thanks.

[@MoonfishSparkle]

Hi Jill. Great too with the hair powder around the wig edges! Makes it look so much more natural! I also have Reese in chocolate frost!! Love this color!

[@themerz6982]

This does look adorable on you, both of them. Had some questions about Noriko wigs & I knew who to check for information. Thank you!

[@makeuphairjunkieover4082]

I had this wig (Reese) 6 years ago and did a review on her in Almond Spice. I ended up selling it bc I never wore her. Now, at 50 years old and 6 years later, I purchased her again. She is very close to my bio hair and I hate doing my hair. I have several wigs but Reese is so cute and hassle free. I guess my point is as I aged my styles have changed. I purchased her in this color after watching this video. The chocolate frost R is so cute!!! Thanks for the video!

[@suzannedawson4120]

I just discovered how amazing these wig grips are!! They didn’t look like they would work but OMG! It made my Julianne petite wig (which is actually a little too small for me) fit perfectly! Go figure! I wish I had invented it 😉 Yeah, that bra strap thing REALLY BUGS me too. I don’t think I’ll order another wig without the Velcro from now on. Much more comfortable. FYI, the Julianne wig actually has the Velcro. I too, think this color is stunning on you ❤️ I also have a Reese wig, but have never gotten used to the shape. It’s got a weird and unnatural rounded business going on, that I have never been able to make look good except to bring that poofy stuff in closer to my head with the use of a headband. But you’ve done wonderful things with it! It looks fabulous on you! I’m really loving that Kate wig!

[@Solis855]

Hi Jill. You are SO right about putting on a wig for the first time. My first one was Editor's Pick by Raquel Welch. It was too much for me and I sent it back. Can you believe it? Now 7 wigs later I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem, especially after wearing Finn! I might order it again, lol. Thanks for your videos. I've learned a lot from all of you ladies who do these wig reviews.

[@terrieseverson6346]

Really enjoyed your styling of Kate....the colors are fun and lively as well. Another great video.😉

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Terrie Severson so happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@monaattianese662]

Jill 1st God bless you sweetheart you are sooo insightful and your thoughts are instructive..you do these reviews so professionally...so I bought toni Brattins line on your word and noriko reese and sandy..lots of permatease but such glamorous feel..ok thanks so much🤗🤗🤗

[@maryloul1621]

Jill, you cracked me up with the palm tree comment 😂!

[@sundaysommers1476]

Girl you just saved me from ordering a wig that won’t fit me. All the way to Mexico with 2 months waiting and driving through the badlands to pick it up. You are so appreciated.

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Yasss! So happy you let me know...makes my morning! ;)

[@susiepalmer1977]

I have a Reese in Hot Pepper. Love it. I’m going to order Kate since I saw this review I can’t stop thinking about it. In this color. Gorgeous on you!!!!!!

[@sueroberts6193]

Fantastic critique.... the colour is stunning on you. 💐

[@terrishimmel9258]

Request - Jill, I watch a lot of wig review videos. YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST. I love the honest way you review the wig and your wonderful personality. I also love, love, love the way you style the wig. You are second to none in what you are able to do with a wig that shows it in a different light and what can be done with the wig other than the stock photo. I would love to see what you can do with the Noriko Sky wig. I know there are a ton of reviews on this wig out there but none done by the master of wig reviews -- YOU!. Thanks for all your videos. I really enjoy them.

[@dollyla229]

Both of these wigs are really cute on you!

[@joanniebarnett9740]

OMG my absolute favorite color on you! Such an elegant looking woman ‼️theses are 2 I know I can wear. Appreciate your reviews so much. I can even do the color. I’m with you on the sizing

[@pedolbailey]

Your gorgeous in darker wig! Stunning! I started wearing the wig headband grips because of the itching. Wow what a difference it made to my wig wearing! I do place a tiny bit of tape at back of shorter wigs like Noriko Billie in Bubblegum!

[@lisawomack7462]

You look so gorgeous in Kate. No one else who reviewed this wig looks good!

[@kathleenbeauchemin8146]

Oh, love that color on you and the style of both wigs! You always make styling look so easy! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and tips💞

[@sandrag.mcalister3308]

Beautiful wigs Jill, and they look adorable on you! You look great in every wig that you show, thanks, great video!! 💕

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Sandra G. McAlister you are extremely sweet. 😉

[@MoonfishSparkle]

Hi Jill. Love chocolate frost!!!! I have it in Reese large but love the Kate even more!

[@lisamaier9984]

I totally agree with you on Noriko Caps. They tend to run small, and they do have more spots that itch or irritate. I REALLY wish they would address these issues because I love their wigs. I have Kate...CUTE, CUTE!

[@libbyadler9360]

Adorable on you. Love the color. Agreed on the Noriko caps. Well made, but warmer due to closed cap and permatease, and smaller. However, they wear like iron. Quality wigs for the price point.

[@cherylapel5866]

Love love love these wigs on you, Jill. Did you hear me screaming, “No! Don’t spray the hairspray! It’ll get all over your headband!? 😂 (I have the same headband. I adore it. 😊

[@judithhartwig5331]

I wish I can look as good as you in short hair. Both styles look like they were made for you and the color is gorgeous on you. Thank you for this video. It was great

[@maryloul1621]

Great advice on the first wig buyer and permatease!

[@TheCissero]

Really beautiful color and style. I wonder how comfortable the cap for my sensitive skin. So many people very sensitive. I’m dog and animal crazy.

[@deliadsantiago9895]

I just love you’re eye make up! Can you tell us what brand you use, please. Beautiful the way the eyeliner was applied. Love 5he wigs too❤️thanks!

[@carolludington3783]

I love the Reese on you the best. I have wigs that scratch around the front edge. I sprinkle powder around that edge and blend it in with my fingers. You cannot see it once the hair piece is on. This works for me. I also added a strip of bias tape (sewn in place) that also helps. I speaking of two different methods on two different wigs. Just to mention, it could help you too.

[@Pennys33]

Everything you said is true but I have one too and wondering whether the strips in the back could be cut and loosened more than it allows now. I was thinking of cutting them and sewing them 1/4 inch looser. Usually the other wigs I have have adjustable straps vs. this Reese wig. What do you think? Do you think wig glue might work with this wig when it is slightly small to hold it from moving "up"?

[@dianareddell1496]

Lovely color and it looks great on you. Thanks for the advice/opinion about the warmth of the brand. I run really warm and need to know that information. 🙂

[@andreapierce4351]

GOOD CHOICE OF COLOR! ♡♡♡♡ looks sooo good on you!♡

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Andrea Pierce thank you so much!

[@desktopkitty]

When you were saying "you can literally create a palm tree", I was actually thinking 80s big hair rock star! I'm under 5ft tall, I might could use some height. haha

[@gardengirl9099]

Hi Jill. Can you tell me the name of that hair powder that you are using. Does it come in different colors? I think your videos are great. My Noriko Sky is the most comfortable to me and I can wear it all day with no problem. But my Raquel Welch, Henry Margu and Jon Reneau are so itchy and uncomfortable to me that I take them off the minute I get in the house. And they are expensive! Those are the ones that are itchy to me even with the lace fronts.

[@joyclarke8672]

Love you reviews so informative and lots of ideas I love you in this colour but love the blondes too. I think Reece on you looks like Shannon review you did with less permatease. I feel your pain with noriko but their styles are so great XOXO

[@blairvd]

Thank you for being so thorough and detailed with your reviews! I could never tolerate the warmer cap...

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Thank YOU for watching! I am so happy you find this helpful!

[@SJL07]

Two days ago I received my first wig ever, a Noriko Sky. I love the way it looks and didn’t find it itchy at all but now I’m thinking I should look at a different brand for something a little cooler for the summer. Really loving the Raquel Welch wigs!

[@lindapullan6937]

Can I suggest trying a wig cap made of bamboo and treated with aloe vera with your wig grip might solve the problem of the cap irritating your scalp. Also I understand the Milano now make a wig grip with an integrated wig cap. Worth a try.

[@maryweidner187]

Love them both, nice style! Thanks for sharing.

[@betzie2]

I have the same issue with Noriko sizing...and have to pull mine off as soon as I’m home. My very favorite and I’ve tried many....is Jolie. She’s a longer bob than Reese and Sky but not too long for my taste. She’s also the most comfortable I’ve tried...and I adore the color creamy toast. Try that one Jill! Beautiful color....so wish they made it more in other styles. Great reviews!

[@pandalove4everful]

I love that color, Jill! I have a very small circumstance- like 20 1/2” I always use a wig grip & even that moves after hours & I got to redo it!! Did you see the new Alva by Noriko? It’s really cute - longer like I like them. I don’t look good with short hair !!

[@investigator77]

Thank you for the tip about using the hair powder. I just got a RW wig in Voltage, and it's supposed to be a Large, but it doesn't cover my hairline at the sides, and my hair is very short, but white! I may be able to work it out with some of that powder. Or maybe I just need to order grey wigs!

[@Karen-ki4zo]

I wondered if you've ever owned a Belle Tress wig. I currently don't own a Noriko wig but Belle Tress is the same to me about being itchy around the front hairline.

[@nikkimeldrum7448]

Can you put a link for the headband your suggesting, have heard sooooo much from you, thank you

[@annsorensen1606]

Thank you, just bought Reese in chestnut

[@callmemo5400]

I always learn something with you Jill; style or shade of wig doesnt matter. All the best from KY!

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

CallMeMo thank you! So wonderful to read!

[@judedeprey6831]

Love this color and style on you!

[@DonnaCCooter]

I have trouble with the cap too. I always get a headache

[@lisaammoms261]

The PermaTease is what drew me to Noriko. I have Millie and was complimented 2 weeks ago on it. I was told I had the perfect hair for my facial structure. She had no idea it was a wig. I was thrrilled!!!

[@michelephelps1087]

The milano topper grip (large) works without the bulk of a wig grip. …also, cutting off the adjusters made my Noriko Storm fit my 22” circumference comfortably. Thankfully they make Reese in a large cap, which is on my wish list. 😊

[@lindap.p.1337]

Just got my first Reese in choc. Frost snd I am shocked that it is so long on me. I have a short neck that is probably the problem. I have to work on it. Am kinda worried but love it on you and have wanted it for a long time. This is a great video for me. Thanks from Virginia.

[@suzannedawson4120]

Thank you, Jill! I have a Reese too, and I always have to use clips or headbands. She’s just weird on my long face. If I don’t use the hair accessories, it looks like I’m wearing a football on my head. I have to really tame down that bulk on the sides

[@CFer49]

Jil, what brand do you recommend for a first wig? Preferably not too pricey.

[@cjl.6394]

My 1st wig, as with many of us, was Reese in Chocolate Frost-R, and now I'm spoiled because I cannot find any others to even come close to this fab color! Anyway, I wanted to share what I did to alleviate the itchy permatease at the hairline. I got really close with small scissors and just cut it off! I took about 1/8" from the edge and cut down as close as possible. Works very well! I also use It Stays at the hairline and that edge is glued down anyway so, since it does not move around there is no itch on the hairline. Curious as to why you are itching right over where your wig grip lays? OK I'm off to buy a Kate in the one and only CF-R!

[@janishuey3639]

How does the smell of the new hairspray compare to Beautymark?

[@atlantablu]

I started wearing wigs in May and my first purchase was Noriko / Reese in Chocolate FrostR. I loved it so much that I bought Jackson and May. In between these 3 purchases I bought other brands and styles and I sent every one back or sold them. I recently purchased "Jamison" and it looks terrible on me and figured out why. The others were all "flat" and I've gotten used to how the Noriko's with the permatease look on me! Do other brands make wigs like Noriko? TY!

[@zxme2u]

Jill try exotica holding spray , I think you'll like jt. It's a bit wet, but works like traditional hair spray .

[@ritaweygint4038]

Being a true petite, I’m so glad to hear Noriko runs a bit small! They have some nice modern styles!

[@kitarowland8530]

You are soooo correct....I just received my 1st wig and hated it!...it was number one of its brand and looked great on the You tube model...expensive ...was looking forward to wearing it and when I put it on I felt I horrible...it is sooo much hair...my head looks huge...:(....I’m exchanging it...concern will not like any wig sine I’m not use to them...u Look gorgeous...thanks for the advice

[@leecrandall2322]

You can purchase mole skin in a package. I saw Junebug use it. When you said that you looked like a Palm tree ....I lost it! Haaaaar!See ya ~ Lee ( I have a handy hint; I put a rubber band on the holdie part on my mascara, it keeps it from flipping out of my hand)

[@leecrandall2322]

Sew or glue mole skin over itchy parts in wig. S👀 ya~

[@JillLynnBeautyTherapy]

Lee Crandall excellent idea about sewing in some moleskin!

[@SH-fb7gw]

Hey Jill, have you ever used Piece Out Creme on your Reese or Kate? I’m thinking of ordering some piece out cream. Is there anything otc that you would compare it to?

[@judithhuggett936]

I have a Reece and it is so puffy on me I was so disappointed can it be thinned at the crown and sides to make it less so. On you it looks great mine looks slightly different Thanx for a great review Judith X

[@jeanhargis6597]

Can you tell me what shades the Reese in a large cap come in?

[@chincaglieria]

Let me know how you fix it (mole skin)? You look great in both wigs The colors are perfect for you. Diane😊

[@judyanne3563]

I REALLY like that chocolate frost reese!!!! I like frosted wigs

[@susanpeterson8774]

I wonder if 3M barrier spray (or another brand) would help you with the itching.

[@mamalize]

Jill I'm just one of your biggest followers. I absolutely love your honesty. Btw what tool are you using for your thumbnails they are so good

[@maryjacobsen6539]

Oh my goodness, I think I am about to order my fourth wig today after watching your videos. I am going to purchase Kate. I better stop watching your videos for today. LOL!

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

Is there something like Reese, just an inch or two longer in length?

[@jackiesue3891]

Love this color! I always wonder what wigs look like when you're outside in a breeze....when it's blowing away from the face how obvious is it?

[@lindarussell5207]

Hi Jill. Does the hair sticking out of the part bother you? I can't get those flyaways to lay down! Do you have any suggestions?

[@beajannis2968]

I’m also HSP. Wich short wig can you recommend in a grey ?

[@megatexification]

The reason we need to keep Noriko as it is: those of with smaller heads have very limited choices.

[@tanyacoupe5833]

Yes! With other brands, I end up taking about eight wefts out & sewing clips in. I recently discovered Noriko Kate and love her. She fits perfectly with a wig grip and no alterations, other than some thinning (a little too much perma-tease for me). And, I live in the windy desert, working outside with no problems so far. My 2nd Kate (in chocolate frost - thanks to this wonderful video) arrives in a few days. It's difficult to find affordable petite wigs in styles I like. I'm now sold on Noriko! And Kate... She's adorable.

[@michelle6384]

Great video. I love this on you. I really want to get this one for summer. Can you tell me what wig grip you are wearing?

[@karapringle5994]

FYI. In one of your videos you mentioned something about returns and exchanges of wigs. I'm new in the world of wigs. I ordered my first wig from "Name Brand Wigs on line. Unfortunately the color was horrid on me. I returned with no issues. I also wanted to let you know QVC offers 30 day free exchanges or refunds. Right now, they are offering 90 days return due to the Pandemic. No charge.. Just wanted to give you those updates. I still haven't ordered another wig. Trying to decide between Jet by Estetica or prestious\Toni Brattin. Sorry for long chat!

[@DonnaCCooter]

Noriko caps give me a headache with or without the wig grip but I agree with you the styles are very cute!!

[@paulab4652]

Have you done a video about your eye makeup? It looks great. However, I'm not sure it will work so well on blue eyes.

[@hollykurtz3178]

Ilove both on you! I have a Kate in Almond Spice but I think I need to order a chocolate Frost Reese’s now!

[@truecrimenut6696]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE DARKER COLOURS ON YOU!! 🤍

[@karenskloset898]

Hi Jill these are both so cute on you will be nice to see without the black background because it looks like it's a very dark color and it's hard to really see the full style however I for myself have found a way to take care of the itching in any wig I use those hair nets that have the lining around the edges and they fit snug but they're all netted all the way through I use it stays underneath from temple to temple then I put the wig over it but I'd put more it stays on top of that little wig band and that takes care of the wig sitting next to my skin it's thin and there is no movement I'm good to go for the entire day no itching so that's my little trick that I use maybe you can try it and it might work for you but check it out that may be a Winner wishing you a wonderfully blessed New Year👍⚘🌟❤🤗

[@pamhamilton3488]

HI & Happy New Year Jill ‼️Have u tried one of those wig head bands for the itching?? I haven’t. Like you I just itch untiil I get home 😕

[@MimiDidi121]

I got Tori in chocolate frost and love it too. Most of my wigs are ash blondes and grey/silver. I'm ordering a new reese and am deciding between chocolate frost and mocha h By the way, I ordered 2 wigs my first time. One was Reese. My bio hair was/is very fine, but wasn't thin before I started losing it. I was noticing just before you said that you were a highly sensitive person that none of the things you mentioned have ever bother me with noriko come but I'm the type of person who's highly tolerant. Because of a congenital defect I lost my teeth in my twenties. They put those dentures and and I just have lived with them for 30 years and most a times they hurt and I don't even think about it because I just tolerant to things like that period it's a good thing because when they pulled my teeth I had 22 root canals and caps & crowns! Then they began crumbling! I had a congenital defect where I was missing whatever causes your teeth to reject acids, so mine absorbed them, causing them to become chalky. That wasn't known in my teens when we took lots of advantage of my moms great dental insurance! I don't, however, tolerate hot and tight wigs! Ever since I was in kindergarten when mom would send my to school in those hard plastic hwasbanda with shark like teeth, I'd have a headache by noon. It took me years to be able to tolerate wearing glasses without getting a headache! So, my noriko gave me plenty of headaches for a while. I've got a petite/average circumference too! 20 7/8". I find a noriko wig is sort of like tight jeans out of the dryer, once you've worn it a while it seems to form to your head and feel loser.

[@mattiesful]

Love that color on u. It really brings out ur eyes. I have that wig and love the cut but the permatease makes me feel like I have a helmet on. I never wear it out of the house because of that. I was hoping the permatease would break down some because the fibers are great. But it looks cute on u.

[@chincaglieria]

No, it's not just your issue, it's mine too. You would think by now that Noriko would have taken steps to rectify the cap problems with all the feed back that's out there. Great job, Jill. Diane

[@sandyludlow2254]

Hi Jill both these wigs are stunning on you. For me I prefer Kate as Reese seems to have too much permatease. I am a little worried that it may be too snug, nothing worse than a wig headache. Its not like you can remove it if you're out and about, or in the office! Did you not perhaps try Reese large cap, or is that the other end of the spectrum? Lovely video. Take care x Sandy

[@clairestratton5529]

Love your videos but maybe showcase light wigs with dark backgrounds and dark wigs with lighter bsckground as it’s hard to see xx

[@lyndakeevil666]

I love Reese I've been wearing it for years. Probably more than 10 years. I love big hair, I guess that's why I like it.
