Patti you are an excellent teacher! This is an amazing tutorial! Companies are only interested in making money...so they will never offer this information. They prefer us to buy new hair constantly. This will save a fortune. In today's day and age, we ALL need to save money, and all women should be able to be glamorous as they see fit. You are a total sweetheart, thank you!

[@719kattstreet]

Patti, you are so generous with your tips and you are adoreable, I love watching you!!

[@mariatmaehlman3893]

I am a first-time wig owner. I learned so much about synthetic wigs I just want to say thanks!

[@dorothyolson190]

A couple of years ago, I purchased a electric heating and curling brush/comb from my wig store and it works perfectly to smooth all synthetic wigs and has given my wigs a very long life span. I have even used it now and then to smooth out my own hair. They are not expensive at all and a must to own if you own wigs.

[@deborahday6069]

You are an inspiration! I'm a cosmetologist who had to retire due to arthritis. I started wearing wigs about 6 months ago. Where I live we have a wig store. I'm thinking about asking for a job!

[@itzzbarb]

Patti, you are such an asset to the wig industry! Thank you for all you do for us and I hope you are feeling great.

[@ActionJacklyn]

I've seen literally hundreds of wig restoration videos. This one is by far the best.

[@nataliehortin7883]

Patti you are the Bob Ross of wig wearing and styling! 😍 Brand new to wig wearing and haven't been able to afford a nicer one yet..but your videos are excellent on teaching me how to make them look good! Informative and so cheerfully delivered. Love it🥰

[@doloresspagnuolo8153]

Patti, your videos would have to be the best I have ever seen. You understand that most of us are not Hairdressers/Stylists so you know how to explain everything clearly, how to do it and why. You really hit on the many frustrations that can occur when owning a wig and help us to solve them. I am a very happy viewer from "Down Under" (Australia) and will have you as my "go to" for any hiccups I have with my Wig(s). A big fan from now on. Great work!!

[@melissahnoel]

This by far Was the BEST tutorial on KZbin that I have watched for. This process. THANK YOU!!! 💗💕

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Thank you for your sweet/kind words!

[@pamgenovese7501]

Patti - You are a delight! I have learned so much about how to wear and care for wigs from you. You are so sweet, genuine, and down to earth. I could watch your videos all day long.

[@imrlaps7097]

Great video. ANd I love how affectionate you are with your audience. Lovely.

[@Jade12568]

Styrofoam head fits really well on a plunger handle, then you can use the plunger end make it suck stay on a table. Works really well.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Yes!! It's such a great hack!👏👏

[@FAUXHAIRFABULOUS]

This is one of the best "How To" videos I have seen! Saved to my "liked" videos so that I can refer back to them at any time. Thanks Patti!!

[@pamelaanderson8899]

You really are an inspiration. I bought a $300 Raquel Welch synthetic wig, and it is starting to show some frizz, and now, thanks to you, I can restore it. It is my favorite, and I bought it about 9 months, and I wear it daily. 😊

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

That is wonderful! We are so happy to help you maintain the longevity of your piece. We're sure you look amazing in it. Thank you for watching, Pamela💗

[@BrandyinBoiseID]

Hi Patty! I love this tutorial and just wanted to thank you because this is life changing information for women that wear hair every single day.Buying a new wig every other month or looking hideous in an old one can really be depressing. I had to watch this one a few times just because I get distracted and forget to pay attention but today it finally clicked and I had success. "Elle" is beautiful again. I have a quick question for you, and I apologize if you said this already but I am not sure what to do if there are little kinky curly strands that do not seem to want to behave? I have to say my favorite part is when you say "maybe she stuck her head in the oven, I don't know?" I laugh everytime. Thank you for all you do.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

If that's the case you will need to steam it over and over again till its completely gone. You will not damage the wig if you use the steamer.

[@marleneolson3008]

Hi, Patti. I’ve watched this tutorial several times and finally tried steaming an old wig that I was going to throw out, and it worked. I don’t know what the wig is, but the label says “Envy”. I think I got it from eBay and it seems very nice - monofilament top, hair is soft and full, and looks and feels like real hair. After steaming, I used cheapie foam rollers and curled the hair. I left it to cool overnight and took the curlers out. It looked great! Then I tried it on.....uh oh....didn’t look good on me. So now I have to practice my hair cutting skills.... what the heck...I was going to throw it away anyway! Thank you for this great video!

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

We're so happy this video could help!

[@MsFoxxiLadii]

Ms Patti....It WORKED!!...I'm going to do another one of my wigs...this time I'm going to do a before and after picture...I appreciate you sharing your tips...again..thank you so much.

Long time ago in beauty school I was taught wrong. We were taught that synthetic hair was like a plastic shopping bag once it gets messed up to get it of it. I love your wigs can with little effort look great again.

BEST!! I love that your genuine and honest!! I will be purchasing wigs from your site, now that I've found you thanks to you tube!!! Sooo, a hand held steamer, the that hit steam, really is ok for synthetic wigs?! I must try this, as some of my wigs are getting frizzy and need some TLC!

[@6862211]

So glad I have found you!

[@ms.rubyj.4259]

Patti, your videos are AWESOME! You are such an extraordinary teacher!! Speaking of iron, can I use a "steam" iron to get the kinks & frizz out? Being a cheapscape, I'd rather not buy a steamer, if I don't have to.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Unfortunately this won't work as well. You really need a steamer so that you have that strong constant steam coming out. It would take you forever with an iron and you still wouldn't get the same results. Also be careful and don't let the iron touch the hair as it will melt it.

[@lainey5767]

Brilliant as always 😃

[@Esther433]

Wow Ms Patti I'm Happy I ran across these videos. I can't wait to view all your videos. I love wearing wigs but want to keep my hair healthy under it. Any tips are welcome. Thanks your a God sent

[@leslieseibel8554]

This is terrific to know. I thought u couldn’t use heat products on synthetic wigs. Please explain.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

You can use them on HD synthetic. You can use steam on any form of synthetic as it's a wet heat instead of a dry heat.

[@susancantorna1097]

Hi Patti! This video is awesome! I have a wig Karlie (Jon Renau) & didn't realize when I bought it that it flipped out at the ends. I haven't worn it because I just don't like out flips at age 64. I was thinking maybe I could use the steamer to get rid of the flips, and then re-curl for an inward flip. Bad idea or not? By the way, I think it's so cool that you actually share your techniques. Thanks, Patti.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Yes, you can use steam to change those flips

[@isabstmr]

Loved the video!

[@sstacy4490]

I love Patti!! Would love to see this as a skit on SNL tho!!

[@sierrasancio2717]

this is so helpful thanks☺

[@KimberlyJ424]

Thank you for this video. I’m confused. The hair is synthetic. I thought you couldn’t use heat on it. Is it heat resistant synthetic?

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

You cannot use dry heat such as a flat iron or curling iron but you can use a steamer which is wet heat

[@dw7939]

I love your videos! What wigs are right behind you? The short layered blonde and the long one next to it. I have to have them, I'm a wig addict.

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

[@carolosburn1383]

Best training video!

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Glad you think so!

[@meichelle2000]

I love that I stumbled across your channel!! Can you tell me, will this method with steam, will it make the wig soft again??

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

If you use a good moisturizing spray like Jon Renau's HD Smooth Detangler and a steamer, it will help to make your piece feel more soft, smoothed down and moisturized. You can also try out Wig Lustre by Jon Renau to help your wig look more natural and feel even softer. You can check these products out at www.wigsbypattispearls.com/

[@conniesixel4266]

Hi Patti: So I have the Opulence and High Society by Gabor. I Love them both. Only thing is the bangs keep flying into my face. Can I use the steamer on them to get the bangs to stay back. Just worry to do it with the lace front and don't want to wreak these beautiful wigs. Thanks

[@Wigsbypattispearls]

Hi Connie, Steaming it won't really help the bangs to stay back. Try tucking them behind your ear or pinning them back. After doing this for a while the wig will become "trained".

[@lovelives2795]

I LOVE U MAMA ❤️❤️❤️🙌😍 God bless u🙏🙏

[@marneycohen2338]

Hi, I have the Alia by Jon Renau. It's a shorter style and has a flip in the back. If you are familiar with this style, could I do the de-frizz on it, or will it be too difficult to get the style back? Also, by frizz, do you mean when the individual strands either get like a curly ribbon curl or creases? I was told I caused that by combing too hard.
