Paula Young's Gray Wig Colors: COMPARED!!!

[@Mimarier]

This is incredibly helpful of you; comparing each color, explaining transition colors, pointing out the warmer vs cooler tones, AND especially showing them in different lighting. I am helping my 82-yr-old mother and have referred back to this video again and again. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this and explain in detail all of this information. I really appreciate it...invaluable!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

You are so welcome! That's exactly why I did this video!!! And Thanks so much or watching and sharing! Hugs! ~ Coco

[@debbiehall4155]

Such an incredibly helpful video! Thank you for your extreme efforts to show us all the different lightings. Seeing them individually you would never notice the subtle differences. 👍

Thank you Debbie-and thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!!! Blessings!

Thank you for taking the wigs out side . I think I have almost all the greys but having this explains the shading difference . Great video and I am looking forward to the rooted greys .

Hi Rose!! It’s scheduled To be released on May 12th!! Thanks so much for watching and I’m so glad it was helpful! Hugs and blessings!❤️

[@lisavento7474]

I DO NOT KNOW WHY wig companies have a problem making brunette wigs with some gray and maybe white streaks. WE DO NOT ALL GO SILVER!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

So very true, Lisa!!! Except if you pay $$$ to have one made just for you!!! I’m hoping that the wig industry will continue to evolve with improved fibers and better choices (like your suggestion)’. I’m not sure how quickly that will happen so we’ll just have to make the best of the situation and definitely NOT hold our breath!!!!!! Thank you so very much for watching and commenting on my videos!!!! Hugs and blessings to you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@lisavento7474]

@@cocoshairsolutions i was thinking about writing them, SO MANY brunettes want to stay brunette without trying to look 25, so an aging option seems PARAMOUNT! If you have an in somewhere let me know and i'll go after it (speaking as an artist and designer)

[@cocoshairsolutions]

@@lisavento7474 hi Lisa!! Just thought I would let you know that Godiva’s Secret Wigs is coming out with a new color that they are calling Smoky Frost in October. I have already pre-ordered one to do a review on and I’m hoping that she is a little more brunette with gray through it. That still doesn’t address the issue of having a streak of gray somewhere in a brunette head. But I do know that they offer 3 other colors: midnight pearl, black onyx and Sandy silver where the front bangs area is significantly whiter or grayer than the hair in the back of the wig. I don’t know if this addresses what you were looking for but I thought I would let you know. Thank you so much for watching!!! Hugs!!!

[@lisavento7474]

@@cocoshairsolutions Thanks, i'll look for those. These "FASHION GREYS" are not helping us look natural as i know of nobody growing grey like that. My hair is coming in pretty black with silver sides and bangs...still, i want a backup!

[@krawlb4walking802]

I agree. Can you imagine if they actually made wigs with strands of gray in it here and there? That would be so realistic no matter what the base color. There is a market to fill. Money to be made. ( speaking of mass production.)

[@925sterling3]

Wow! We are SO APPRECIATIVE of all the effort/time/work you put into making this video with PY gray choices! Those color boxes online or in the PY catalog are so tiny and trial-and-error is very expensive. I ordered one of the long gray toppers based on your you-tube review, but was extremely disappointed and sent it back. (Not ur fault) The topper I received was extremely glossy and looked like nylon fish wire! It was ugly, flat & lifeless---- NOTHING like yours!. It did not look shapely like the catalog photo, and because of the small mono crown, I really couldn't tease any shape into it! This was a very nice & educational video for those who want to try Paula Young wigs.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Hi 925Sterling!! Thank you for your appreciation of my videos!! What I am finding is that so many helper hair products do not come “ready-to-wear” and must be worked with to make them presentable. And then if there’s something wrong with the mfr of the wig (which I find happens with PY products) the only recourse is to return them. So although I am disappointed for your experience, it’s no surprise to me to hear of the problems you had. 😢 The good news is that it isn’t always like that and that’s what we hope for! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve reordered a wig later and it turned out perfect! Anyway-thank you for watching!! Hugs and blessings to you!! ❤️

[@amitchell9820]

Thank you for the gray color review. I’m trying to decide between 44 Salt/Pepper and 56#1B Soft Pewter. My bio hair is Salt/Pepper and I have cool skin tone. It seems like most wig manufacturers have more blonde/brown colors to offer wig buyers especially in the beautiful rooted colors. But, not everyone looks good in blonde or golden colors and skin tone plays a major part in your color selection.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

That’s so very true! Knowing the warmth or coolness of a wig can make a big difference. I will tell you that the salt and pepper has a slightly warm tint to it because of the combination of brown with the black. But just a slight change in lip color and blush color can help bridge that small gap. 56#1B is significantly cooler. It has silver plus a black root so it’s much cooler than 44. Honestly, if it were me I would order both of them and then compare side-by-side. Are you planning to purchase one wig between those two colors?

[@amitchell9820]

@@cocoshairsolutions I have a petite head and face and shorter styles look best on me. My nape and sideburns grow longer in those areas, so I try to find styles that cover them up. I can shave my nape and it looks fine but I like to keep my sideburns long to blend in with the wigs. 44 is my bio color and I’m trying to order wigs that come in that color. Right now I’m trying to decide between Daisy #A2131, Sensational #A5016 or Covergirl #A2182. I thought about Evie #A3197 which has a lace front and I’ve never owned a lace front wig. Evie only comes in average and I would have to take it up but I think the sides would be long enough to cover my sideburns and nape. Decisions, decisions 🤔

[@cocoshairsolutions]

@@amitchell9820 if I remember correctly Both Daisy and Cover Girl have longer sides for a shorter style so that might work very well for your sideburn situation! I just received Daisy for my next video series but haven’t unboxed her. If you’ve watched any of my previous pixie videos you’ll know that I have to have longer sides on my pixies to cover my hairline. I have a larger measurement from ear to ear going across the back of my skull so length on the sides is really important to me, too.you’ll have to let me know what you find out!!

I'm so glad my video was helpful for you!!! Keep looking--I have found that Angels Wing is another silvery color that has less darkness, if that's what you're hoping to find.

[@judycook4314]

I just found your channel and it’s very informative. I’ve worn a few variations of Paula Young’s wigs and recently ordered the first color you show here. What I received looked nothing like this at all. It didn’t even have 5 percent gray yet it was marked as this color. I had to pay the postage to return it 😡😡 which is why I never buy a wig unless I at least get free shipping to me. I should have contacted the company to complain but I’ve had to do that before due to poor construction of a wig. Anyway, thank you for doing us understand the grays!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Oh Judy, I am so sorry you had this experience. Those of us who are very familiar with PY are experiencing more and more events like this one, and it is really frustrating. Many of my viewers/subscribers love the PY line, but with these kind of quality control problems, it is getting difficult to endorse their product. I think our only recourse IS to complain. I'm glad you found me and hope you'll stick around!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video and share your experience. You have helped more people than you know!!

It sounds like you might be a good candidate for PY's Sugar and Spice 17/101 or Godiva's Secret Wigs Frosted Taupe. These are gray colors that are blended with blond shades and my clients who are graying blonds always find them a good match! Thanks so much for watching! Hugs! ~ Coco 😊

HiCoco! I enjoy watching and learning from you bc you present with enthusiasm, honesty and clarity. Don’t own any PY wigs but from your shows most look like real hair. I only wear gray/ silver and gray with light brown. This was very helpful. I think the color 44 and pewter would suit me.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Hi Marylynne!!! From your description, I think you might be right about your color. But if you want a little more light color around your face and are used to wearing silver, don’t rule out SF51/60 Silvery Moon. It still has a bit of darkness in the back by the nape. What wigs do you currently wear? Hugs!! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi Sandra! I realized today that I called you Coco after watching several of your videos this afternoon. I really enjoy how you present. The wigs I own are from Godiva’s Secret Wigs.

Very realistic and high end looking. Thank you for your help.

(Diana LF, Freedom and Millie)!!! I would have to say that many of the PY styles are very cute and realistic looking, but the quality of the fibers are better in the GSW/Noriko brands and they in turn will last longer-in fact, I even say so in one of my videos!!

[@HeyPearly]

GREAT Video! Thanks so much. I'm in deep water trying to get the right grey! As a faded redhead and truly surprised at my newly discovered Covid color. I'm happy to have some pretty very white streaks around the face & even at the neck/nape. I enjoy your in depth reviews as I'm sure many others also appreciate. I hope to find the same enthusiasm and through reviews of the other brands as well, Especially Raquel Welch, Gabor and a few other better brands. I'm extremely sparse at the front & along my part line & crown, so a lace front & a skin (mono)top are badly needed. I think I'm only one of a few that does not want rooted wig/toppers. After using color touch up for so long, I'm happy to have just one color again. You are doing a great job,Thanks again!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Thank you so much for your wonderful words of encouragement!!! Trying to find the right grey can be challenging, but try not to get stuck thinking it has to match perfectly. Your skin color may look good with one color over another, and that's the one you should choose. Usually, the colors are thought of as "cool" or "warm." So that will be the first step. Then you'll need to find the right combination of white & black/brown to match what you're bio hair usually looks like. 50/50 would be #44 Salt & Pepper. More white goes into the other lighter gray colors. But some are warmer than others. So the best way I can recommend to determine this is to purchase a wig in all the colors that are closest to what you're wanting to match. After you see them side-by-side and on you, you'll be able to make the best determination. Also, remember that each wig company has their own particular blends as well, so you would be best to do the same with them as well. It's a bit tedious, but it'll give you the final results you are looking for! Good luck!!! Thanks so much for watching and sharing! Have a blessed day! Hugs! ~ Coco

I happen to love the Silver Stone color, too so I always go with the 51, rather than the 56. 51 has more white in it and 56 has more brown in it. So 51 is cooler, 56 is warmer. Does that help? Thanks so much for watching and sharing! Hugs, Coco

[@JanCummings]

Hi Coco. This is a very informative video. Thank you. I was wondering if you have reviewed PY’s Color me Exquisite. I am thinking of ordering her in the Sugar/Spice. I would like to see how she looks on someone other than a model, and how she can be styled. Thank you.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Thank you, Jan!! CME is on my list of future reviews for Fall!! If you can wait that long…!!! Hugs!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@nellrutzer5655]

Agree with so many reviews. This video is extremely helpful.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Glad you think so! And thanks so much for watching! Hugs, Coco 🤗🤗

[@southpawtx]

Would you say that sf51/60 silvery moon is cool or warm?

[@cocoshairsolutions]

@@southpawtx its definitely cool! Its such a gorgeous formula of gray and white. Personally my favorite on any of my wigs! - Coco

[@southpawtx]

@cocoshairsolutions thank you for that quick reply! Your reviews cover the things people want to know most!

[@29Fiorello]

Great comparing the 60 and 60B. * love the B.. I do think that it is not quite fair that PYoung uses the color name "Silvery Moon". I LOVE Silvery Moon by Gabor, but Paula's color is not the same.

This is SO helpful. Thank you so much! I came upon a "Silvery Moon," more or less by accident on the second-hand market, and I just love it. Now I know why (cool). :o) Thanks again, Annette

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Silvery Moon is one of my all-time fav color blends, too. But I find that I'm a little partial to adding a little black root to her. But I have to start out with SM, first!! Thank you so much for watching and sharing!! Hugs, Coco 😊 🤗

[@rabaile1]

Maybe I'll try adding a root, too. And now, as of just today, I saw a new gray they have called Ashen something. I may try that one, too. Thanks a million!@@cocoshairsolutions

Hi Coco! Hope you’re having a relaxing evening. The work you do is demanding so making time to chill is important. I’m interested in purchasing a whisper lite long topper. Since you mentioned you know about Godiva Secret Wigs, which PY gray color is closest to Silverstone? How would you describe number 56? Thank you.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Hi Marylynne! The closest color to GSW Silver Stone would probably be SF 51/60 silvery moon. The color 56 has a little bit more brown in it rather than black so it’s going to look warmer, whereas silvery moon will look more cool in tone. I hope this helps!! ...and yes I'm relaxing this weekend!!Hugs!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@marylynnecartwright1636]

Thanks for getting back to me, Sandie! Enjoy your weekend. I did order the color Slivery moon and Silver today! Hope they work for me.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

@@marylynnecartwright1636 I hope so too!! Have a great weekend!!! Hugs! ❤️❤️❤️

[@marylynnecartwright1636]

Hi again, Sandie! Regarding the color 56, does this color resemble SandySilver in GSW? Thank you! The toppers I ordered have already shipped!! That’s just 1 day after placing my order!! Impressed. Can’t wait to get it!!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

@@marylynnecartwright1636 hi again!! Sandy Silver has the gradual fading to brown whereas 56 will be a complete blend of all white with a very small amount of brown throughout the whole wig. You can see this in my video on comparing PY’s different colors of gray. Good luck!! ❣️❣️❣️

[@a.rosesrbleu9580]

Was that your Bengal cat I saw walking by behind the wigs? I loved all the info of warm and cool and thought it ironic the "ash" color was actually a warmer color!

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Lol! Yes it was him and I wasn’t sure anybody would catch that! His name is Ozzie and I’m sure I’ll introduce him to everybody at some point. He’s rather aloof and finicky but he is very vocal so you might hear him in one of my videos complaining!!! Good eye!!! I’m glad he didn’t distract from the video! Thanks so much for watching! Hugs!❤️❤️❤️

[@kathrynsee6184]

What a handsome fellow he is! I just can't believe that he left the table alone!!! Well mannered! And thanks again for all you do for those of us that had no idea where to start on our wig journey. I only wish I had started wearing wigs earlier. Would have saved lots of time before going to work!@@cocoshairsolutions

[@annthompson6389]

Coco, thank you so much for you videos. I really love Paula Young wigs, I can afford. But I hope you can help me find a similar Rachel Welch gray color RL 56/60 in the Paula Young Gray's.... This would be wonderful. I truly appreciate your input and assistance. Many thanks. Ann in Idaho

[@cocoshairsolutions]

You are so welcome, Ann in Idaho!!! II think the color you might like is Angel's Wing. It's a beautiful soft blend like RW's 56/60. But you need to be mindful that PY also offers a rooted Angel's Wing and that's not the one you want. See if you can do a search on PY's website for Angel's Wing and it'll give you all the styles that this color is offered in! Whereabouts are you in Idaho? We go to the McCall area fairly frequently. If I know where you are, I'll wave at you as I drive by!!! Hugs, Coco

[@lightfollower5717]

I wish I had a catalog. I want to order.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

You can call them at 1-800-343-9695 and ask to get on their mailing list and soon you'll have so many catalogs (they put out at least 1/month--if not more--and they are good for 3 months!). Have fun!!! And thanks so much for watching and sharing! ~ Coco 😊

[@Alice-rm9ge]

I really like the color you have on ...What color is it??

[@cocoshairsolutions]

I have the PY Curlable Long Topper in the color 51, and I've put a bit of root spray on it as well, so it gives it more dimension. Have fun! and Thanks so much for watching and sharing! Hugs, Coco

[@jolenedelilys2589]

Does PY Salt & Pepper have an overall brown tone with a lot more brown than black? Most salt & peppers, for an example, Raquel Welch, seem to have this more white/black contrast? I am tempted to think they sent me Cool Ash rather than Salt & Pepper? I look like I have light brown hair as I did when I was a child??

[@cocoshairsolutions]

I have a PY topper and Meg in #44 S&P and they seem to have a warmer (brown) tint to them rather than the cool black & white tones of RW's charcoal or many other #44s. And depending on the hairstyle, PY might send you more pepper in your S&P blend--like they did w/my last Meg purchase. She looks very black. I have found these kinds of issues are common when ordering from PY, which is very unfortunate. Maybe send yours back and order another in a couple of months? Either way, it's not really acceptable, but all we can do is be sure to let them know. Good luck. Hugs, Coco 🤗

[@jolenedelilys2589]

Thanks, so much.@@cocoshairsolutions

[@dianacipollone4560]

I am always hoping to see a topper without bangs. Hate them but very hard to find them on line.

[@cocoshairsolutions]

The thing about toppers with no bangs is that you either have to have it be a lace front or if not a lace front, you have to have your own solid hairline. The reason for this is because the polyurethane front or standard topper front will have to be placed 1" or so behind your natural hairline. If you don't do this, you will see the obvious edge of the top piece. By the time I see clients in my shop who are asking for toppers, there are not very many people that have hairlines that can support this kind of placement. 😊 Thanks so much for watching and sharing!!! Hugs, Coco

[@scwheeler24]

First I’ve seen the sugar and spice. Pretty. You said if you look good in the warm colors this would work?

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Yes it does! There's just enough warmth mixed in with the silver. And if you like Sandy Silver, or Frosted Taupe, you'll probably like Sugar & Spice 17/101! Thanks so much for watching! Hugs, Coco

[@scwheeler24]

@@cocoshairsolutions great to know. Well done video!

[@scwheeler24]

Ik it’s a year after the video but I’m learning about grays. I just recently got Shelby in #38, and even though PY doesn’t always have a name attached to it, I’d call it dark grey. It actually is very close and I mean close to ROP And Noriko Sandy Silver. I also have Haley Envy In dark grey and it’s very close, a bit lighter. Your camera and lighting makes it look lighter, almost taupe like but if anyone is familiar with those colors can give you an idea. I love that color, my favorite color so far. They’re all pretty but that color looks best for my red/dark blonde genes

[@scwheeler24]

And that’s great to know that if I wanted to go lighter I would go with #56. I’ll be sure and refer back to this video 😊

[@cocoshairsolutions]

I'm so happy that you found my video helpful! Yes, I have noticed that my camera & lights tend to make the colors look a little lighter. So that's why I try to remember to take them outdoors to see the colors in daylight. But that doesn't always happen. :o( But thank you so much for watching and sharing your insights! It's greatly appreciated!!! Hugs, Coco

[@yooperlooper]

Boy, the Cool ash which looks similar to my color looks so much darker in the catalog. Now I'm confused :(

[@cocoshairsolutions]

I would say that the only true way to judge that color is to just bite the bullet and order a wig in that color. You'll know if it's right or not when you finally get it in your hands. It's that way with just about every manufacturer of wigs and their own color lines. Thank you for watching and sharing!!!!! Hugs, Coco 🤗 😊

You are correct - I am going to bite the bullet and get a cool ash in Shelby and a Sugar & Spice in Heather. Fingers crossed! haha. Your videos are awesome - especially to wig newbies like me. :)@@cocoshairsolutions

Do you ever show the blondes?

[@cocoshairsolutions]

Hi Shirley! I did do a review on the cool blondes and it's in my videos. If you go to my channel homepage and search for "blondes" it'll come up (I think). I have yet to do a comparison on warm blondes, so if that's the color you're looking for, I'm sorry to say I don't have a video on that. Have you contacted PY and asked for their free color swatches? They'll send you a whole collection of blonde colors for free. Try that and see if it might be easier to find a color close to what you're needing! Thanks so much for watching and sharing!
