Great review!! I totally agree with you on the bangs & lace front. BUT overall it’s still a cute wig. It looks nice on you. Of course, Butterbeer Blonde is beautiful. The style is very youthful & flattering. Your makeup is impeccably done…very pretty🥰 Appreciate your honest review🙏🫶💐
Thank you so much!! I'm considering keeping her because I think just a minor tweak could fix the little bang issue for me. Appreciate your input, Clara!
Those bangs are putting up quite the fight. Looking forward to seeing how you get on. I have a low forehead and hate hair in my face, so not a bang lover. Thanks for sharing.
I wouldn't mind them if they were in a manageable length and shape, but I agree that hair in the face is majorly irritating, Margaret. They're very wispy so if I can trim and straighten them a bit, the wig would probably work, but I may not want to go that route. I did expect the center part to be wider, though, from the stock photos, even though I'd watched a couple of reviews of it already. Not many being put out that interest me at the moment, and I know you get that!
@@frontporchwigchat6260 Yes. I wanted a curly style for updo formal occasions and tried a wig pro. Not the quality I am used to. Will be OK for the few times I would use it, but not getting any more. The tays are wimpy.
I ordered mine. I ordered mine July 12. I’m still waiting for a pre-order looks gorgeous on you. I’m praying I can do something with it will be my first week I’ve never bought one before.
It should be a fairly easy wear for a new-to-wigs person. Hope you love it. Just don't look at yourself in a bathroom mirror at first. Put on makeup and take a selfie. that will show the real picture of how you look in her. Good luck!
I agree with you about the Raquel and now the Gabor heat friendly. I have Trend Alert and loved her. She looks like I cooked over a hot stove, which I did not. I’m gonna try this one for summer! Thanks!
Good to know, but not unexpected. I can't stand those fibers. They're soft and silky for about day and then, it begins. I don't want to style wigs with heat to smooth the fibers because I frankly don't have the talent! Even then, at some point, they are a lost cause. I think you might like Destiny. Belle Tress fibers are heat friendly, but they last SO much longer than Raquel Welch's Tru2Life.
Thank you, Rachel. I just have to decide if I want to manage the bangs, trim and straighten them a bit, or if I prefer to leave them alone and pass it on to someone else. The more I wore it, the more I liked it, overall, but those bangs need a lion tamer, LOL.
@@TheIndecisiveWigWearer I think I can probably tweak them just a tad and make it work, but I'll sleep on it. I do think it looks pretty good on me, though it's been a hot minute since I purchased a straight style!
I agree with Carlie, your makeup looks amazing today hence you are beautiful. I really like your lip color also. Can you share your lip color/brand. As far as the wig goes, I like it a lot! Casual, cute, natural. Have a great day and thanks for the honest reviews.
You're just too sweet, Lynn, thank you. I had to think a minute, but this lip color is Milani Amore Satin Matte Lip Creme in 08 Indulge. They don't move much once they dry down completely which is always a big plus! You have a great day as well!
I love the look of this style! It's kind of like how my hair used to look too. However the lace front does worry me and I'm glad you brought it up. I think it's a bit sub-standard too. I bought 'Delight' by Ellen Wille and it was the same. I ended up sending it back but did play with pulling it back a little on my head, and pulling my own hair through, which lightened the lace front. I think I'd be doing the same with this. Apart from that, I think it's beautiful.
I remember the bang gave me too much trouble. I'd love this without a bang better. I loved the look of it, overall, but just wasn't really my jam in the end.
@frontporchwigchat6260 I completely understand, though I thought the bang looked natural & relatively under control in your review. I have watched others where they haven't been, & tend to look a bit fake. So yes, all in all, your review helped me a lot & I've now turned my eye to "Montecito". Thank you!
Thank you, Teena. I would suggest that no one just cut straight across these bangs if they decided to trim them. I had to snip some of the longer pieces, holding the scissors vertically and at a slight angle, because there is nothing worse than being poked in the eye by synthetic hair, LOL, but that's all. It should be an easy casual wear. Glad you like yours and have made her work for you.
Thank you very much for your wonderful reviewl!!! I am a curly lover girl and I am trying to find a straightish bob add to my collection...for reference i am heart head shaped with large looking head trying to make it look a bit smaller with a sleeker than my beloved curls(jamilla plus, jordan, alexandria ect)... as it will be my first sleekish hairstyle i cant really deside,... i want it however to have a tad of volume not to be complety straight line... I am torn between destiny, timeless and lady latte... Unfortunately i can't find them in stores to see them in person... What would be in your opinion a better one? In terms of realism, movement, maintenance ect
I haven't seen Lady Latte or Timeless in person, but they are quite similar- the nape on Lady Latte is supposed to be a shorter than on Timeless and it's the only one of the three with a full monofilament top. Destiny is cute, but the bangs gave me some trouble, not enough of them or just too irregular, but the overall shape of it was really adorable and it has more shape around the face, some slight layering. I can't really suggest one over the other, not having had my hands on any of them other than Destiny, but if you love super low density and can deal with the particular type of bang it has, it could be a good one for you. Good luck with your choice!
Love this on you Cynthia but I see the problems with the bangs. Love the wig otherwise. I have seen this wig in another color that has the bangs magically perfect, lol. I, like you do not like messing with wigs too much.
Of course, variations are the curse of our wig world, but I think if I can straigten the bang some, then just snip off the extra long offending pieces, it would be more wearable. After all, it is a wig with bangs and I want to wear it as a wig with a wispy bang, not necessarily swept off to the side if I can remedy the issue without much trouble. Thank you, Donna.
Actually, this lace front with not much highlights looks so much better. I am fed up with those new lace fronts. All manufacturers do that now. I think they look so fake with this straight line of usually blond hair against the dark roots. Not natural at all!
It's definitely a personal preference. My preference is no rooting at all. I've always said it isn't more natural for women who never dyed their hair and had regrowth like myself. The roots on all these wigs except maybe the super light one on Roca Margarita are much darker than my dark blonde hair. But, we have so few choices. It's even harder for me because the very few blondes without rooting are not my shade of blonde, either. Color is very difficult all-round! Thanks for your comment!

Thank you so much!! I do think she's a cute one. I'm inclined to do a slight tweak on the bangs and keep her. Thank you for watching!
I agree about the lace front but boy I love this style on you I don't think it could look more natural it's so youthful too you should keep it! 😍

This wig looks good on you! So natural looking, very cute

I bought Destiny and make those bangs work. She looks beautiful on you! My mistake was that I trimmed the bangs.
