Wigs 101 - What I have Learned So Far

[@KC-oc4rd]

Thank goodness these vids stay on YT for years! I NEVER thought I would have to wear a wig. I knew absolutely nothing and didn’t know where to turn. There’s so much to learn and your channel is a godsend. You are lovely in every way! You have a way of explaining that is thoughtful and thorough. Nisha, thank you for taking the fear away!!

[@TheWiggyWoman]

Welcome to wig life!! I was hesitant too but best decision I ever made 🥰

[@juliemitchell1567]

This is really helpful I am getting a wig for the first time and now I am much more aware of what I need. Thank you so much 😊

[@lindab6113]

Hi Nisha! I am so amazed at how natural and beautiful your wigs always look!! I now realize it's because of those specific things you mentioned you look for. Thanks for another interesting and informative video. Have a wonderful weekend!

[@investigator77]

Great advice and always helpful information. You look beautiful in everything you wear. Thank you for sharing it all with us!

[@karent3004]

Nisha, I just can't get over how natural that particular wig is on you. No one would ever think it wasn't your hair, I guess because the color is exquisite and the style is so cute too, plus the roots make it look just like real hair and makes the wig coordinate well with eyemakeup. Just lovely on you hon! 😘

[@karent3004]

I'm not sure which one it is but I really love that one and wish my own hair color was closer to that LOL. not even close though. 😎

[@michellerealestate]

I would also love to know name and brand of this wig

Good info, thanks - and the wig you were wearing looks GREAT on you - very realistic color for you!

[@lynnmacdonald7939]

You are a beautiful women. I have been watching your videos most of the day. I keep saying this is the last one for today and then I see another one I want to watch. I love your sweet personality and sense of humor...I keep LOL. Thank you.

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

Ah, thank you so much, I am glad that you are enjoying my videos xoxo Nisha

[@EatBeefBeHealthy]

I never thought about wearing a wig before this video. Great information. I do believe that I will take the plunge.

[@kathyberardino9944]

Thanks for sharing your own experienc Thank you for sharing. I enjoy watching all of your videos.. I too am new to wigs. I have learned so much from your videos. Now I am confident my wig won't fall off my head lol

[@moniquebreier5908]

i could listen to you talk all day, i love you accent and you are gorgeous and give great honest advice!

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

Thank you! 😃

[@timewoundsallheels4ever]

A huge THANK YOU, Nisha for sharing your views, great tips and experience! They do take the scary bit out of buying and wearing wigs. One burning question still: How do these wigs perform outdoors, i.e. when you are in the hot sun, does the UV light affect colour and sheen? What about when you get rained on, do they look like naturally wet hair? And can you wear them on the beach & swimming in the sea / swimming pool or does the salt / chlorinated water damage the fibres?

[@jackiesue3891]

Hi Nisha- I just can't believe how beautiful your wigs are...how natural they look! I look at the pics of them on websites and they look so different there than they do on you. Honestly, I don't think they look nearly as good, which is a shame. Thank you for all the great info!

[@monslay5624]

The wig you are wearing, is the cutest one I've seen! I want it and may just order it.

[@raraavis7782]

Very nice review, I like, that you talked about the construction in detail and also showed everything close up. 👍

[@fldragonfly]

I just started wearing wigs a few months ago. I found you by your hooded eye videos. I was not sure if you were wearing a wig! I found this video today. Thank you for this great information and everything you are teaching me to look the best I can. You are so pretty in all your videos! 😘

[@ElleIsForLiving]

My mother-in-law has worn real hair wigs for about 40 years and she is amazing and knows so much. This was very informative and the wigs always look so stunning on you. ♥ Elle

[@AngieS_91]

I’ve got this piece & love it. I’ve got about 10+ due to daily wear & not the ends getting frazzled. I’ve learned so much since urgent w and you’re great reviews help me so much. We have the same complexion and we like the same colors & styles. Thank u for your reviews🥰.

[@susanschafer1248]

Nisha, I just found your wig videos and I really want to thank you. I'm going to watch all of them as soon as I get time. This video was so, so helpful. My hair has gotten so thin in the past few years and I think wigs will be my solution. I do have one now but it is so shiny and it's really obvious that it's a wig so I don't want to wear it. Anyway, thank you so much for the video and all the best to you ...xx, Sue

[@shottynaberhaus1086]

Very informative video. I'm considering purchasing a wig to wear in the evenings when on beach vacations. You have helped me out considerably in making a decision. Thanks so much.

[@glorialagroon6171]

Hello, Nisha! This was very helpful and informative, thank you! Love how detailed your descriptions of the different types of wigs and choices we have. I even saved your video for further reference. Was wondering if you have experienced any of the wigs feel hot or warm while wearing them? Where I'm from the weather can get pretty hot. Lol! Take care!

[@BedfordFalls7]

You are so pretty! I don't think you could look bad in any wig!!! I do love your hair color on you, but I also think you look amazing in darker colors you have held up before.

[@pjreisa5050]

That was so much fun....you just look so pretty in each one. Looking forward to your next video. Love..Patty

[@melissalynn6680]

That RW even without roots looks gorgeous on you and real.

Great video! So informative and educational for beginners like myself. I absolutely enjoyed it! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences ♡

[@nancyallenbrand4188]

This was a very helpful video. You have a knack for explaining things.

[@cathharr08]

I just received my first wig from the Rachel Welch line and omg is it gorgeous. I have dark brown hair and was a bit unsure about the color I chose. I ordered the dark chocolate brown and it is absolutely gorgeous. I have long hair so it's a bit challenging to put the wig on. I ordered this wig because I have severe problems with my spine and it makes it hard to lift my arms up long enough to style my own hair. I usually wear it up in a tie and at 55 its not cute. I'm sure once I learn how to put the wig on fairly quickly this will be the answer to my prayers. I can finally feel good about how I look again. Thank you Nisha...I really appreciate you and the work you put into your channel.

[@nanettealsop]

What a wonderful and informative video. You have explained a lot and it gives me comfort to know all these tips. Thank you :) You are gorgeous! Love your accent.

[@jojomart]

Thank you so much Nisha, this was extremely informative. I just bought my first wig, and this really helped me! Can't wait for the next one! 💞

[@kathleenstanley6751]

Loved your advice about full monofilament and lace front cap. Also, your recommendation to get your first wig in a style that you usually have your bio hair in or a style that you've worn in the past was brilliant. I can imagine me buying a flouncy style and throwing it off after one wear thinking it's not natural and what am I doing wearing a wig(even if it looked beautiful). I'll take that bit of info on my shopping trip. Thank you so much. My newly shedding hair is making me so sad. k

Thank you so much for taking the time to do and post your videos. I enjoy watching you!

Yes, 2 tips from Taz's Wig Closet Use dry shampoo to keep heat friendly from getting string. Buy a shiny one? I bought a reg synthetic that was so shiny it looked like doll hair. Taz's wig closet tip 2. Soak in baking soda, condition it, after fully dry finish with a little dry shampoo. BOOM! It's perfect.

[@lisamarie5223]

Wonderful video Nisha!! I wish you would tell us the wig colors. I loved so many of them. Thank you!

[@TAZSWIGCLOSET]

Great video Nisha! Thank you for documenting your experience as a new wig wearer! Love, TAZ

[@MrsLoretta]

Nisha I swear I thought that was your real hair....I would never guess it was a wig...looks so natural...I know nothing about wigs so this video was very helpful..I have thought about getting a wig but because I didn't know anything about them I was afraid I would spend all that money and never wear it..I had a very cheap wig years ago and rarely wore it...I felt like everyone knew it was a wig...and they probably did...lol....Great information...Thank you for sharing....Hugs and Love Loretta

[@PerrySkyePhoenix]

Good advice. Thankyou. I bought a wig online, a couple of years ago and I returned it because I didn't like it (minus a restocking fee). I wish I would've had this info sooner!

Very informative..... thank you Nisha..... my hair is really thinning. Thinking about wigs one of these days. Have a great Friday.... 🌹

[@janevt.5914]

This series on wigs has been eye opening. I never thought much about wigs until seeing your videos. I purchased May by Noriko in Chocolate Frost as a start just to see if I would be comfortable wearing one and didn't want to spend much until I knew for sure. My problem now is fear of it coming loose while out in it. I hope you address this in your next wig video. Thanks so much Nisha! 👩🏻

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

Yes , I have a very good product that makes your wig secure, that video is coming on Sunday. I have been looking at May, how do you like it? xoxoNisha

[@janevt.5914]

SugarPuffAndFluff I went with May because I was attracted to bobs and my hair is much longer and I usually wear it pulled back in a bun, so I wanted to try out a bob on me. I'm also loving the highlights on this wig, something different for me but the main color is very close to my own hair. I'm still not secure with wearing it out and look forward to your next video. Thanks again Nisha! 👩🏻

[@Bella-tj4ti]

+Jane Vt I just use bobby pins to make them stay. I like wearing a wig cap with the little vents. The wig caps that are smooth, I find make my wig move a little. I am currently wearing Jameson by Esthetica and I find that it fits my head perfectly and don't need to use bobby pins at all. I know some people use the Got2be hair gel/glue, but I haven't found that I need. Just my two cents.

[@Bella-tj4ti]

I love this wig on you! I actually purchased the one you have on, and returned as it was too short on me. I have a long neck and I just felt short hair is not that flattering in me. I have been wearing wigs for about two years and it is very fun. I used to buy wigs at a wig store, but she closed and it is extremely hard to get the right color!

[@tuttletruckservice9297]

HI NISHA, I AM A NEW FAN OF YOUR STATION, I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO LEAVE YOU A NOTE TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS . YOU ARE TEACHING ME SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS. I WILL BE WATCHING YOU I AM SURE FOR A LONG TIME. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK. I APPRECIATE YOU. THANKS, BRANDY TUTTLE

i bought a hair wig an made a topper out of it had it sewn to a headband as i have deep frown lines and and since i started wearing it my confidence has soared it got to a point i didnt want to go out anymore because of my appearance and im menopausal my hair is thining and i love wigs so ladies buy a wig that suites you you,l love it

[@annsam8441]

Thank you for all your helpful advice about wigs. You are so kind to always share what you know with us. I think it's much easier to go to a wig store & try on wigs & then order them on line. I ordered on line twice & had to return them & now I am reluctant to do it again. What is your experience?

[@sylvimettyear]

Hi Nisha, you have given us a truly professional lesson here from all the experience you have acquired , absolutely brilliant , you are doing a very good job and I am very pleased with all your KZbin clips you are proper, carry on we like you a lot here 😊👍🤗👍😉stay fabulous as you are 😉😍

Hi Nisha!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge of wigs with us! I found it very interesting!! The wigs you have selected to wear are very beautiful on you. It must be nice to be able to give yourself a break from styling hair, and just pop a wig on. I think you explained yourself very well. I wish you a fine weekend. Hugs. Laura xo

I enjoyed watching this informative video on wigs 101 where is the video showing how to care for & put on? which wig is Nisha wearing in this video?

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Your hair is SO adorable in this video! Have you cut a fringe or done anything to the crown, or is this the way it comes? You have completely convinced me to try wigs for fun. What is your favorite bob style? Thanks for being a great KZbinr!

[@maybrathwaite4333]

Dear nisha, can you do a video on crown topper? Thank you.

[@fairemaiden]

Thank you for this video. I just purchased my first wig, (Synthetic), and am LOVING it; but, I bought it, (online), not knowing a dang thing about wigs! I guess I was just lucky in that it fits and looks great... much better than I expected. Indeed, I expected to have to send it back! Thanks to your video, I am now more confident in knowing what to look for, especially in the Cap, the different Synthetics, the 'Root' business you discussed, how to Care for these pieces, and the Measurement of one's head. You gave us such valuable information. I can't thank you enough!

[@lisamarie5223]

Hey again Nisha! Another gorgeous cool light blonde is by Envy called 'light blonde' Their medium blonde is warm but the Light Blonde is cool. So gorgeous. Wigs.com describes the color this way and I totally concur LIGHT BLONDE | 2 toned blend of Creamy Blonde with Champagne highlights- Vogue.com wigs says this: 2 tone color combination with neutral platinum and creamy blonde tones blended to perfection. xoxo

[@charitygalensky3665]

[@happytrails699]

You look so great in wigs. I just have such a hard time with the permatease. Always makes it look like a wig. The wigs look so natural on you. I really feel rooted wigs look the most natural.

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

I do like permatease, because I like big hair, I find that thinning the wig out a bit helps with that wiggy look on wigs with permatease , you have that lovely heart shaped face that you don't really need the hight from your wigs, but for me with my round peanut head lol I need all the permatease I can get lol xoxoNisha

[@Violet-ws4eh]

Great video, Nisha! Lost of good information on what you look for in a wig. I have a couple of lace front wigs that I've trimmed the lace to more closely match my "widow's peak". I was very careful and didn't trim off much at all, but it did break up that straight across hairline. Lorna

[@judithhuggett936]

Hi Nisha really enjoyed the info you put out on what you have learnt about wigs so far. . I received my RW editors pick yesterday, when I put it on it felt so puffy and so much hair to contend with. Could you please in your next wig video let me know how I can flatten it a bit and also do you use anything to keep it in place on your head so it doesn't come off. Thank you for your honest opinions.

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

There will be another video on Sunday about that. I don't think the RW wig has that much hair comparing to other wigs, it will feel like this to you at first, because you are not used to having so much hair, I just flatten it with my hands, I like big hair so it is not bothering me xoxoNisha

[@donnacampbell248]

Thanks for this video so much useful information on wigs and caring for them.

[@emilydunn3570]

wow- this was so helpful. I have been researching wigs and get overwhelmed to the point that I've get to purchase one. I like your advice about choosing a color and style similar to what you have or had. My hair is color treated and I have to touch up the roots every 3 weeks. I'm looking for a wig(s) to help me transition and stretch out my expensive visits to the hair salon. Your wigs look so natural that one wouldn't know it wasn't your real hair. Thank you for the great information. I'm eager to see how you put on the wig, what you do with your natural hair and how you style your wig. BY THE WAY- since you've been wearing wigs have you noticed any change in your real hair? Any damage, thinness, etc?

[@gillianlee8514]

Great Advice! I never thought about getting a wig close to the style that I’m used to wearing but it makes perfect sense. Love you accent btw. Sounds like you used to live in Liverpool.

I've been wearing wigs since 1983 and I've never had one that showed the weft. Now I have problems with serious hair loss and thinning so I wear toppers. I still love my wigs but when it's warm the toppers are sooo much lighter and cooler.

[@Crazywiglady]

This was a really good video Nisha, thanks!

[@tennymusgravebrown8797]

Nisha, that was an excellent video! 😊 I've been wearing wigs for 10 years and you are already a pro! I do have a question, though. I am very curious as to what made you start wearing wigs. I have androgenetic alopecia (female pattern baldness 😝). Oh, and I want to tell you how you can extend the life of your hd and regular synthetic wigs using very low heat on your flat iron (I will heat up my flat iron then turn it off. When I can touch the plate then I know the flat iron is ready.) Taking a very, very small section of fiber, I lightly comb through. Then I spray with leave in wig conditioner and quickly pass the flat iron over the fiber. It takes trial and error, but you will learn how hot you can get the flat iron and how quickly or slowly to pass the iron over the fiber. If done correctly (and really it is very easy to do it correctly 😊) you will preserve the style of the wig. Also, by working in very tiny sections, if you should accidentally burn the fiber, you can just snip that off and it will not be noticeable. I know this from experience as having burned some fiber. 😉

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

Thank you so much for this tip. I don't really know how I got in to wigs, I have always hated my hair , it is very fine and lacks body, it takes a lot of styling to get it to look good. I think that one day I came across Taz's channel and couldn't believe how good wigs are these days, so I bought one wig and I was hooked lol, I can have hair now that I could only dream of although I don't know how I would cope with wearing wigs in the summer when is hot xoxoNisha

[@tennymusgravebrown8797]

Wearing a wig is like wearing a bra. 🤷🏻‍♀️ You just get used to it. And you learn to find shade and air conditioning. I'm 48, premenopausal and need to lose about 10-15 pounds. I'm hot anyway. Lol My bio hair is bad news so I keep mine buzzed. Your bio hair is still very passable. You have enough that kept at the length it is, you can easily alternate between wigs and your bio hair if the day is so hot and you don't want to mess with wigs. Or you can wear a ball cap instead. I bet you are cute in a ball cap!

Hi Nisha, have you ever tried GodivasSecretWigs? They are wash & wear wigs from USA, they have a good KZbin channel. I really want to try them but thought I’d ask your opinion first. Your videos are so helpful.

[@cathharr08]

How many times do you wear a wig before you wash and condition it?

They say (for synthetic), if wearing daily 7-10 days you'll need to shampoo and condition.

[@AnEmmeni]

Very helpful video Nisha. I have recently needed chemo and am starting to lose my hair. I want to go back to work, and was wonddring if the Raquel Welsh wig straight up wiith a twist, looks like real hair. Or which wig wouldmyou recommend that looks undetectable. My greatest fear is to look wiggy and everyone will know.

[@SugarPuffAndFluff]

Straight up with a twist looks very natural, but if you are worried I would go for a wig with slight curl/wave as straight haired wigs can sometimes look too perfect. For most natural look always go for lace front and full monofilament. I am sorry you are loosing your hair, good luck with the chemo. xoxo Nisha
