To Finn or not to Finn, that is the question! Wig Review - sorta

Oh Finn! Whatever will I do with you? Hope this helps someone.

[@belindatrimarchi7591]

Oh, my I can totally relate to you, Robin, I've been searching for a wig for days. I look at Taz who reviews wigs, and, and everything she puts on is beautiful out of the box? Then I go to KZbin videos of normal people and they look like crap? Did the Lord give her a blessing for wigs or what?

[@popgems]

I never got Finn because I agree with you that she is not a true beachy wave, but more of a barrel curl look. Instead, I got Estetica's Ocean and I love Ocean!

[@MorningDove]

I've been thinking to buy Finn in that colour but now I'm not sure. A review says it's similar to shaded biscuit, but not so. I love your bio hair. New subscriber 😊

[@Mexicobeanpole]

The color is great on you. When you trimmed it, it looked much better. I think some thinning shears to the bangs and sides and it will look great.

[@tulipsmoran5197]

We've all suffered that situation. If you're into wigs, sooner or later what comes out of the box is not remotely close to the marketing pics. It seems it's not the curls or length. I'd try thinning first - the entire front. That area seems much denser than he rest of the wig. Try thinning. That has done wonders for me in similar situations.

[@shannonlaffey3768]

I love the bangs on you! Every time I see Finn with bangs it makes me want to buy it more but so nervous to buy my first wig. You look beautiful in this wig!

[@michelleshelton8183]

Looks to me.that you needed to train it with either low heat blow dryer or steamer....do you ever use that method? But I do agree the curl pattern doesn't look the way it should. I hate when wigs take that much work

[@DawnStamper]

OMG 🫣 Bless Your Precious Heart 😮 I felt every moment with you, as if we were in the same room together!!! But - watching you try has given me a shot of motivation to try mine again!!! I have a quick question for ya, what was your circumstance at the time you made this video??? I'm noticing one difference between yours and mine and I just wonder if it's our head size...

[@robinswigparty6637]

Man, I KNOW I had included my dimensions in the descriptions of my videos but can't find now on any of them! I did find on a note of mine. Circumference is 22 1/2, front to back 12. Hairline to chin 7 1/2.

[@whopiddledonyourposttoasti175]

Personally I think it looks wonderful on you. When you have it on you look like the daughter of your before, many years shaved off. The bang trim seems to have done the trick and looks even better.

[@katelectraglide1794]

I noticed when others trim their bangs they hold it straight down right against the face, when cutting instead of doing 1 straight cut .. start a bit up and do small cuts when u work your way to the bottom, you can always point cut the bluntness out and it softened it and makes it airy looking

[@1010divajap]

I know just what you mean. This kind of style is a no no for me. It looks so cute on so many reviewers but they're in life's the problem. I'm not a cute type. I'm more of a classic type and as soon as a wig has a smooth outline I know I can wear it. I like fairly straight wigs that have a curve to them and feathering at the ends. Nothing too messy because I don't look in those. Maybe if you use some simple barrettes or even bobby pins to minimize the waves around the head so that the curls are mostly toward the bottom are you awake. That can work wonders sort of like a half up half down look.

[@heatherpalmer]

I’ve wet mine down and moved the curls about and put it on a wig head but it might need a trim I’m sure x

[@michellem9275]

Looks sooo much better after you trimmed it...👍 sometimes tweaking is necessary. 😊⚘

[@robinswigparty6637]

Thanks Michelle!

[@ruthtirado2750]

Finn is one of the most beautiful wigs i own. I never had to do a thing with it! It is also the piece I get the most compliments on. Sorry you had such a difficult time with it!

[@terrimiller8760]

Just came across this ladies KZbin page you don't just put it on your head you gotta style it like your own hair

[@terri2718]

Was looking for videos on Finn and saw yours this morning. I think it looks REALLY nice on you after you’ve trim the bangs! And you are right, …another Finn that I saw from a wig boutique did not look like the full curls yours has. But actually I like the way yours looks better!

[@heatherpalmer]

Mine is the same just arrived today and I think it’s heavy I think the front needs trimming I’ve seen others out the box and there was great. Yours looks worse than mine not sure what I’m going todo with it I can’t send it back as it was on sale 🥺 x

[@charisselinnell-morton4137]

Take it to a hair stylist who does wigs !

[@gayemcphelan4895]

Thank you so much! I was thinking of buying Finn.

[@ummm8511]

I just got mine in the mail and it is unruly like yours. This is my very first wig...and its like ... Ugh!!!Your trim helped tremendously!! I will probably do the same.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Good luck, hope you can get it to work for you. I've given up.

[@ummm8511]

@@robinswigparty6637 oh dear, may go ahead and sell it then.

[@joolee4082]

I bought the same wig in the same color in March. Yours looks even better than mine. I decided to trim my bangs and I also thinned some of the bulk on the sides. The only way it looks good is if I put in up in a pony tail and leave some strands out on the sides. It was a real disappointment for sure.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Sorry for both of us! 😅

[@Tracy-qs5rk]

Looks really pretty on you after cutting bangs

[@Suzwebb1]

You look twenty years younger in the wig. I wouldn't give up on it.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Thank you! Yeah, still thinking about it.

[@sharonlynn609]

If you still have Finn it appeared to be to heavy as if it needed thinning. Just a suggestion it might be beneficial to invest in a pair or hair cutting shears & thinning shears. You can buy a set on Amazon very reasonable. Love the color, agree with you about the root area tho but then I'm old & just can't grasp the dark roots after yrs.of covering them up. Lol

[@vicki5766]

That wig does not look like Finn to me....

[@robinswigparty6637]

Right? So it's not just me! 😪

[@annettekohn2024]

Looks good with the bangs cut. Even a little bit shorter I think would be ok.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Thanks, Annette!

[@christisantos2284]

Robin it makes a huge difference after you trimmed it…I like the last part when you had the bangs…I thought that was actually really nice

[@robinswigparty6637]

Thanks!

[@bonniecarr9922]

I think it looks adorable on you.

[@marandamcallisterjoiner6982]

U just needed some product in there. I always use product first and cut as LAST resort

[@conniefeltman4561]

Absolutely the two cuts is better! I put mine on for the first time two days ago and wow … what volume what curls and an a unruly front! I think I am in trouble! I just put it back in the box it came out of and will deal with it later! Mine is long in the back with curls curls curls! What am I going to do …. beats me! I am like Scarlet on Gone with the Wind …. I’ll think about it tomorrow! 🌈🙏🏻🙏🏻🤭🤔🥰

[@robinswigparty6637]

Good luck. Let me know if anything works. I'm ready to throw out mine.

[@TheLarry2012]

I was watching another lady with the problem you have, and she cut bangs then got the hot roller and lightly did a tuck under on the bangs. That seem to help.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Yes! Thank you!🙂

[@suzannedawson4120]

I have a Finn that I love. I love what you did with the bangs. Very nice. The color is lovely on you. I got a Radiant Beauty on clearance and she’s horrible. No wonder someone returned her. Drab and dull. Style just doesn’t work and now I’m stuck with her. 😿 I’ll never get another wig on clearance again.

[@robinswigparty6637]

I hear you! Thank you Suzanne

[@suzannedawson4120]

@@italiantraditionalcatholic2390 well when you get a real dud, you're reluctant to try it again. I might try thinning her out sometime. Looks nothing like any of the reviews I've seen where she looks lovely. If you saw mine you would agree with me. She's the worst wig I've ever gotten. Drab and dull 😭

[@stephaniewilliams6497]

Try wetting I. Down with a spray bottle and style. It helps a lot

[@robinswigparty6637]

I submerged in cold water but it didn't help.

[@pucciaxel2024]

Beautiful

[@sharonlynn609]

Maybe cutting just a bit off the sides might make you happy with it. I saw another reviewer do that & it made a world of difference. Also you might take a hot air brush to tame the bangs to your liking, also saw a reviewer do on a plain synthetic wig. Have not tried any of these myself. Good luck I think you will get there. Love the color,like you I wish they would improve the root at the front with some lighter pieces to make look more natural. Perhaps some blonde root spray would improve that. Just a few thin pieces laid on some foil. Can always add more & it washes out I have done this & was pleased. Lynn (not John) no stalking. Lol

[@robinswigparty6637]

Hi Lynn! Great suggestions. I think I will do some thinning. Thanks!

[@suzannedawson4120]

Do you know the actual name of that color rather than the code? It’s really pretty! Is it creamy toffee?

[@robinswigparty6637]

I can't find, will have to dig a bit deeper

[@judithpayne6369]

It looks cute now

[@kittygriffith7141]

I ended up throwing mine out. $$$out the window. It looked horrible on me. Same colour. Did not suit me.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Well, at least I'm not alone!

[@GiveItToGod7777]

Get a steamer and hold it back and steam it at the roots and hold it till it cools

[@robinswigparty6637]

I would but the thing is, I don't think this particular wig looks good off my face and the hairline bothers me. Thanks for the feedback!

[@lindafusco913]

PUT A HEADBAND!! LOOKS VERY NICE , ADD A HAT AND THE HEAT MIGHT TONE IT DOWN!

[@Kimerly_7151]

Still have it? I’ll buy it.

[@robinswigparty6637]

Hi Kim, let me think on it a bit.

[@katelectraglide1794]

Watch daily dazzle dawn, she always does a water spritz

[@robinswigparty6637]

Hi! Yeah, I've watched her reviews.

[@deirdreloraine5653]

I returned mine , I luv a curl but this was to much

[@robinswigparty6637]

I hear ya!

[@patrickeny]

Non avresti dovuto tagliare la frangia . Stavi benissimo appena l'avevi messa.

[@ZenaBaywell]

Uh, just cut it to suit you. Not a big deal. 9 minutes of complaints when all that is needed is SCISSORS.
