This has been so helpful. I knew my wig was heat friendly, but thought I'd do damage to it using heat ..... go figure! Honestly, your videos are so much fun with your friends and family. I laughed so much with this video. It's like I was in the bathroom with you. Thanks!!❤

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Myra! We do have fun filming the videos.😁💕

[@kathleenfeldmann8605]

Thank you . This was very helpful

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thank you so much for watching!💕

[@donnavilhauer9014]

Thank you so much Frannie! This video was sooooo helpful! I love wearing heat friendly wigs, but haven’t been great about caring for them as I should. So I really appreciate the tips! 💜🩷🧡

[@FranniesHair]

I’m so glad you found this helpful. Thank you so much for watching, Donna!💕

[@MarlenesWigChatStudio]

Love this video, Frannie! You have really mastered using those tools. I really need to practice. Love the way the all turned out. xoxo

[@FranniesHair]

Thank you so much, Marlene! It's really like riding a bike...once your hands have the motion down, it's easy.💕

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

Hello Franny, nice to see you. That's amazing. I love the way it makes the wig look brand new once again

[@helpfulnhappy]

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Do you think we could ever see a wig factory tour? I would especially love to see how the wig is styled once it's made.

[@FranniesHair]

Great idea! I have actually spoken to one of the manufacturers about this. I'm glad to hear you'd be interested. I'll keep working on it, Trish.😘

[@helpfulnhappy]

@@FranniesHair Thank you so much! (You remembered me!!)

[@nancyh3362]

My fourth wig is in the mail!!! I cut my own hair, so experimenting with cutting and styling wigs is becoming a hobby!!! This video is a great help. Thanks for sharing!!

[@FranniesHair]

That's great! When you are comfortable cutting and caring for wigs, the sky's the limit!💕

[@user-gi9ls1du4v]

Hi Frannie, a fantastic video, thank you! extremely helpful and certainly very entertaining! As a Brit I freak out a bit seeing electrical goods being used in a bathroom although it seems the sensible place to do it. Thank you for all you do to help us along with our wig journey xx

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you liked the video! Thank you so much for watching! I'll be careful with the electrical goods.😁💕

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

Okay I see thank you Franny now I know how to use that curling iron

[@FranniesHair]

Great! Let me know if you have any questions, Lorena!💕

[@janishuey3639]

I have and have used both of those tools, but my results were not stellar. Practice makes progress, I guess. Thanks for posting!

[@FranniesHair]

Yes, I found that once I got the hang of the movement on the Cool Flow tool in particular, it was much easier. 'The key is the way you turn the wand 180 degrees and control the speed of moving it through the hair. Keep working at it. You'll get it.💕

[@suzit3237]

Frannie, you must have read my mind because I was hoping for a video just like this. I have been debating about getting the René of Paris tool. I will be watching this again, probably more than once. I was really wondering about maintaining curly or wavy heat friendly synthetic. Thank you so much for this video! I actually just got my very first heat, friendly wig recently. I had avoided them for 10 years.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! For wavy or curly HF wigs, I think the Tressallure Cool Flow Dual Styler would be better. If you have any questions, please let me know.💕

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

Franny, you are pretty good at using the teal curling iron. I bought one. I need to try and get Isabel's curls back

[@FranniesHair]

It just takes a little practice to get the motion down. Once you do, it's very easy to use...trust me, if I can use it, anyone can!🤣

[@jovickers5313]

Hi Frannie, I'm going to try this on my synthetic wig. Your sisters should thank you for cutting their hair when, young perhaps it was your cuts that have gave them thicker hair!!😀😀

[@FranniesHair]

I like that! I'm going to tell them they should thank me.🤣

[@Dinainme]

This was so helpful and informative! I didn't realize I could just put water on. I thought I needed a heat protectant like the Aveda one I used to use on my bio hair. I love how you break it down so we can understand. I'm so untalented when it comes to styling my hair and have little patience with it. I tried applying heat to my Simmer Elite wig because the ends were getting a little frayed. The wavy wigs seem more difficult to style to keep the same style it came with. I wonder if there is somewhere we can send the wig to be worked on? I won't do it if I have to since my patience and talent isn't there for it.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! I do think there are people who work on wigs that you could send your wig to. Once you start doing it, it can be fun...pop on some music, get yourself a drink, and go to town.😁💕

[@pattimaclaughlin8059]

Excellent video, Frannie!!!I love the ROP tool! I will check that out! One thing I do differently is use a heat protection spray. Because that tool uses less heat, do I still need the heat spray??? There was a Twilight Zone episode where they had no faces!!!! You girls crack me up!!!!!

[@FranniesHair]

Thank you, Patti! I use water instead of the heat protection spray, but you can use either. Twilight Zone...that was it! You're so good!💕

[@BrendaCardinal-wn2mf]

Your videos are so informative. Love them! Question for you about your lipstick colour..... could you please share with me? Is a colour I'd love to wear. 🎉

[@FranniesHair]

Hi Brenda, thank you! I actually did a short video on how I put my makeup on (people were asking) and I linked all the products in the description.

I want to be adopted into your family, lol ❤

[@FranniesHair]

We'll take you.😁😘

[@catet.5972]

Loved this video. Envious of people just popping in to see you... even in your bathroom! I am confused about something: I noticed sometimes but not all the time you use the water spray. Please explain. Thank you.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. I use the water the same way you'd use a thermal spray (as a heat protectant). I don't use it with the Rene of Paris tool, because the temp is lower on that (only 240 degrees F), but the Tressallure tool's lowest setting is 280. I've never tried wetting the hair with the ROP tool, but now that you mention it, I will. Always good to test things out. Thank you!💕

[@MaryClaireCoffey]

Thank you; this was very helpful. Do you have any suggestions for approaching heat maintenance for a wig like BT Alexandria? I love it but it really needs some help ASAP, starting with the tangles.

[@FranniesHair]

I’m glad you found it helpful! For Alexandria, I would use the TressAllure tool and section in small sections. I would move slowly with the curling iron to get more of a curl. Start in the back. When I was first learning, I liked starting in the back to make sure I did it the way I liked it before messing with the front.💕

[@MaryClaireCoffey]

@@FranniesHair thank you so much!!

[@catet.5972]

Has anyone tried using the Dyson air tools on your wigs?

[@conniesixel4266]

Hi Frannie: Should we be washig the wigs before heat styling or can we just do it without washing. Thanks for your help Connie

[@FranniesHair]

Hi Connie, great question. I meant to mention that you should make sure your wigs are clean before applying heat. Thanks so much for watching!💕

[@user-wv7sm6er3r]

Which comb with tail are you using? Love, love, love this video. Makes the styling tools less intimidating.

[@FranniesHair]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Here is the rat tail comb I have: amzn.to/3W4EiOG Thank you so much for watching!💕

[@catet.5972]

The Leinuosen brand of rattail combs on Amazon are very sturdy and they come in lots of colors. Price for 3 is around $6 I think.

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

I get so paranoid when I think of using an iron on the wigs, I haven't tried it yet, but my wigs are long. I'm going to have to do it pretty soon.

[@FranniesHair]

Start with the hair at the nape...it will give you a chance to experiment in a spot that is less noticeable...and keep in mind, you can always re-straighten and curl again.😁💕

[@connieclark3562]

Maybe dumb question, but how do you decide when to spritz with water before using heat?

[@FranniesHair]

Not a dumb question at all. I used the water with the higher temp tool (Tressallure's lowest setting is 280 F). I haven't tried water with the Rene of Paris tool (goes to 240F), but I will test to see how it works with the water. When the designer from ROP used the tool, he didn't use water...so I just followed what he did. The water acts as a protectant with the higher heat tools.💕

[@barbmcculley9354]

I wondered if you always wash your wigs before using your heat tools? Particularly if you have used products?

[@FranniesHair]

Hi Barb, yes...I believe it's best to work on a clean wig. I don't know what heating up a wig with various products on it will do to the fibers. Thank you so much for watching!💕

[@rosealexander4671]

Did you find one hot tool worked better than the other repairing the ends?

[@FranniesHair]

For really damaged ends on Heat Friendly Fibers, I like to straighten first. For that, I would say the Tressallure Cool Flow Dual Style is better. It really seals all the ends. The Rene of Paris Hot Tool is more of a comb, so it doesn't always get every end, and it's not as hot. But if you have damaged ends on a regular synthetic, I'd go with the ROP Hot Tool because of the lower heat. The higher heat could really damage a regular synthetic wig. Also, remember that Rene of Paris only recommends their tool for their wigs. I will be testing on other wigs going forward to let you know my results.💕

[@WigsGlam]

Have I seen a video that you did showing how to open a new wig in order to preserve it in case you want to return it? Can you send a link? Thank you love.❤❤❤❤

[@FranniesHair]

Actually, V did it. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hn2ZXoONaJeJq9Esi=fDMnP6oBTTYue0gu 💕💕💕

[@WigsGlam]

@@FranniesHair Thank you❤️

[@ginahartley7295]

Love the video...this is so scary for me....I used some heat on my HF Gabor wig to redirect my hair out of my eyes.....it fried it...I had to chop bangs in it 😢. I am a cosmetologist I feel more comfortable cutting my wig than using heat. That wig unfortunately is now my lawnmoweing wig.😂

[@FranniesHair]

Lol...lawn mowing wig. Was it a heat friendly wig, Gina?

[@artofwigsV]

Who are the powers to be? 😂😂😂V

[@FranniesHair]

I’ll give you one guess.🤣🤣🤣

[@artofwigsV]

Great and fun video..good girl time! Gonna use this to tell clients to watch it for good info and encouragement! Glad to you see styling! ♥️V
