I’ve worn a human hair system for over 25 years. No one ever believed the hair was not my own, it was that good. That being said, it had its own problems. It was painful to attach and difficult for me to wash and style. Due to current pandemic, I was unable to have my hair “tightened” at my salon. This brought the idea of wearing a synthetic wig to my immediate attention. The freedom and variety of wearing a synthetic wig is oh so attractive. I have watched many of your videos. All are rich with much needed information and the humor needed to deal with hair loss. I thank you both so very much. You’ve helped open a whole new world to me and I love it! I can’t wait to travel to Dallas and schedule a Tuesday appointment!
Because of the Trumatic injury, my hair fell out like crazy about a year ago. It was everywhere. I was so happy that I discovered the UA-cam channels about wigs. If my hair ever grows back in, I will continue to wear them, they save so much time and they look great! Thank you for all the videos that you 2 do together.
I started wearing wigs about 10 years ago when I got tired of coloring my greying hair. The first few wigs didn't work for me, but then I learned what manufacturers and what styles, and what colors suited me. I love my synthetic wigs. They make me look like I have stepped out from a hair salon every morning. They pay for themselves in time and money saved. I recommend velcro wig grips.
I really needed to see this video today! It was fate! I have been wearing synthetic wigs for about 11 months and the last few days have been really struggling. I was wondering today if a human hair wig would solve some of my issues, but after posting a video about my struggles, getting advice from some wonderful wig sisters in the comments and now this video I know that this too shall pass and synthetic wigs are the right choice for me. Thank you for ALL your videos! I wish I lived near your boutique! Hugs to you both!
I love the question of wearing wig n rain. I was at Niagara Falls and it also rained. I was with friends. Yes my wig got wet. When we went inside restaurant. I went into women’s bathroom. Took my wig off. Shook off water. Put back on and was good to go. My hear looked great.
You both are so pretty and you make me laugh. I have 12 wigs, different styles and colors and I love wearing them. Thank you for educating me and all that you do.
I took over my MILs wig shop of 60 yrs! These are all the same things I have to discuss with ppl every single day! 😂 Thr wind blowing it off...just kills me! I tell them I drive in my convertible with my wig and it doesn't go anywhere. I also agree...synthetic is better than human. Less pain to take care of. Love your videos.
So glad I found you! My son and family just moved to Dallas few months ago and I have already told daughter-in-law to find you so I can visit you when I come. Ha I told my husband yesterday that it’s funny but I wear my Duluth overalls and fix my hair everyday but on Sunday I dress nice for church and wear my wigs because saves me so much time! Can’t wait to meet you both!
You two are just wonderful! I am going to try to get to your store in the future. I love, love, love wigs and will probably never go back to doing my own hair. Just too easy to pop one of my "girls" on and go! Plus, i love wearing a bunch of different styles, lengths and shocking people. So, be confident, and fearless.
I love wearing wigs. I’m 68 and have hair but with it being natural wavy I can’t wear the straight cute cuts. And I like to play It’s like playing dress up Thank you ladies. You make this so fun and wonderful information ❤️🌟☺️
I have the wig bug and you all have inspired me and educated me! I just got my wig yesterday and slipped it on for a few minutes after my husband went to bed. I need to find the right moment to approach him. I also found a great wig shop in my little town. I think I will casually take him in soon. Love you all, from an ex-Waco gal.
I just found you two and I love your channel! I just had some wispy bangs cut into my Jackson by Noriko, so thank you so much. Exactly what she needed! Getting caught up on your older vids. Your reviews and tips are great. I couldn't agree more on finding a local salon. So much help and knowledge! You can't get that from a website. Looking forward to checking out new content. Thank you!!!!
Thank you! I'm really wanting to try wigs because I think they would be so fun! I don't like committing to one hairstyle and I'm tired of coloring my gray. This was so informative! I wish i lived nearby, but unfortunately Dallas is too far to drive from Canada lol.
You ladies are beautiful. I have the Ignite wig by Jon Renau. Also 3 Natalie wigs by Jon Renau. Great for hair changes..wigs are like accessories. Love them.
As always, you gals do a wonderful job. You take the fear factor out of the necessity/desire to wear a wig. Thank you. Oh yeah, I would love to drop by and see you, however I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. ALAS!
I have been watching you for more than a year now but I just now ran across this older video!! I just can't tell you again over and over how much I love you both!!! and I swear someday I'm going to get down to Dallas and bring some Wig Sister's with me❤️❤️❤️
Hi ladies, I'm binge-watching your videos from lill' old Belgium ( in Europe ), and I love hearing your reviews, thoughts, tips, tricks, solutions and what not ! Thank you so much for your educational channel, I so wish I could visit you guys and have you fit me for one of your wigs ! Bless you and yours and keep up the good work ! Lots of love from Belgium ! 💝
Perfect style for you both, great idea to show how the same unit can look on different face shapes. If only I lived near you to alter Ignite to fit my small petite head! No such luck living in the UK! I so want this style, have to stick to Natalie for the style and petite size I guess. Thanks ladies x
Sharon McCormack ..if I may add my two cents, I went with Phoebe by Tony of Beverly to accommodate my petite head and while keeping the shape and style of Ignite. I agree everyone wants at least one Ignite....I would write to the manufacturer, I could help them see our needs.
@@terrieseverson6346 Many thanks for the suggestion. Sadly I would have to pay in shipping costs as there are no suppliers of ToB that I can find in the UK. But I shall certainly check out the costs.
Sharon McCormack ..yes, I can well understand the cost factor. TOB was dropped by two prominent supplier here in the US because of their high dollar prices with no discounts allowed. All the best😊
Have you ever tried flipping the part to the other side? The route on my ignite is so dark so I flip the part and it looks awesome and it lays so much nicer. Try it
I had the pleasure of visiting Mimi's Wig Boutique in December 2021. They were in the middle of moving to a new location, but still I had good service and left with a wig. I hope to be in TX again next December and will visit them at their new store. The videos are great.
My big sister used to wear wigs a lot when I was a kid. One night we went to the fair and her wig blew off on the tilt-a-whirl! She caught that sucker in mid-air! We laughed and laughed.
Hi girls. I just found you and subscribed. I’m loving your videos. It would be so helpful to know the size of your heads and length of your faces so we can visualize the wig on ourselves. Can you put that in your drop down info?
Music way too loud.. 🤔🤗❤️✌️Thank you for addressing these questions because I learned some things I need to know before I buy my wig.. I will now stay away from human hair.. That was good to know because I live in a super rainy state, Oregon.. We get rain all year long, not too much in the summer but we do still get some.. Thank you for your help!! 🤗❤️✌️
The two of you are great!!! So much fun. I use the original wig grip (not a knock off) still it slips, especially in the back!!! I have used the glue, It Stays, but if I am hot or working out, you guessed it!! It comes loose! Then I shaved some hair off at on my nape and used tape. By the evening or afternoon it was loose. I am so frustrated!!! Any suggestions?
Such a great video! I’ve been doing a fabric softener soak. Yikes! What synthetic hair conditioner do you recommend. Thanks and I just love you both ❤️❤️
Is there a particular wig grip that you prefer? I would enjoy a video about securing wigs for an extra windy day :) Thanks for informative video on the myths! (I just saw that you ave a vid about Miano WigGrip, so I'll watch that next :)
Hi from Bath, England. Great video ladies! I have ignite and love it but it flops in my face a lot. Have you steamed this in the video to get it to look like this and what products have you used on it ? Any dry shampoo?
Great info ladies. I’m gonna visit when I come to see my bff someday👍 please consider keeping the music more in the background. It was competing with your voices. A more soothing tone would also be less annoying. IMO
Thank you Dee and we can’t wait to meet you. This video was made over a month ago and we have upgraded all of our equipment since then. Thank you for your comment and for watching.
Debbie Sullivan just call the store and we will take care of you. 972-380-5306. Please be aware we are a retail store and in order to ensure all of our customers receive new, unused wigs, we do not allow returns, exchanges or refunds. Thank you for watching.
Typically we suggest washing every couple of weeks or after around 14 wears. If you wear it once a week then you could go for a few months. As for how long it will last depends on the quality of the hair fiber, type of fiber and length of the wig. Short can last as long as 8 months to a year for regular fiber and long as little as 3 months.
Great tips I am the one who is almost 50 and my hair is thinning! So I want to start wearing wigs! Have you or can you talk about starting to wear them to work or out??? I’m nervous What wigs are good non wig looking entry points? I like JR but the colors are so hard to tell
It is so personal, the best way to start wearing wigs is to just TRY! You will quickly learn your favorites and start to develop a "must have" list of features, colors and styles! As for working out, we always suggest wearing your own hair or a cap as wearing a wig can really get super hot, not to mention it means that you have to wash it more often which leads to wearing it out faster. Best of luck!
What about chlorine?!?! I am nervous about the pool this summer... I wouldn’t dunk my head by any means, but kids splash... there’s no getting around getting my hair wet- do I have to go wigless in the pool??
I ordered a Gabor wig that was beautiful in the front, but hair was sparse in back. I have teased it, sprayed it and can get by with it until wind blows, and then wefting shows.Is it possible to fill in those sparse areas with more wefts of hair? It is named "Commitment" in G16, Honey Mist and is very comfortable cap as well as best short style.
I need to wear a wig grip because my scalp is getting realllly irritated from the cap of my wig (I'm bald from alopecia). Can y'all please explain to me why wig grips will never stay on my head? I swear I'm putting the grip on as directed, but no matter how tight I have it, it literally slides right off my head as soon as I go to put my wig on. My wig stays on the grip like it's supposed to, but the grip itself slides off, so I always wear my wigs without it. My scalp is really angry... and the HOT HOT summer isn't helping at all. I'm really frustrated..any suggestions? Thank you!
Feel free to call and speak with us. As you know, everyone’s head is unique. Some people have a more prominent occipital bone than others. A less prominent occipital bone makes it more difficult for the Wigrip to work. Additionally, you do not want to put the Wigrip on too snuggly. If it is too tight it will slip and over stretching it separates the nap of the fabric and it loses it’s ability to work. I like to wear mine snuggly because it feels more secure but it does stretch them and I have to buy them more often. I hope that helps and I wish you the best.
katfish423 when I wore a wig grip I had the same issue, so I had to glue it in the back and let it dry for a few minutes before putting the wig on. It worked well, but I had glue on the back of my head that had to be wiped off before bed so my head wouldn’t stick to my pillow. :). I switched to using a strip of toupe/wig tape on the nape. It holds 3-4 times then I remove it and put a new one on. It works so well and I am extremely happy with it. The only issue is that you cannot stick onto your hair because it hurts to pull off hair. Because I have to wear a wig, I simply have my husband shave my neckline in back a little higher than normal. Anyway, just an idea. I hope it helps.
@@MimisWigChicks I'm a very new wig wearer...Just wore it out yesterday for the first time...so easy, so fun..I even got some compliments from co-workers. Can you recommend a great shampoo and conditioner?
Stacy Haviland many use that product with success. We try to stay away from adhesives as they can be difficult for your skin to tolerate on a regular basis. I wish you well.
LeAnne Oliver thank you. We made this video several weeks ago and have since upgraded all of our equipment so that we have better streaming clarity, sound, etc. Thank you for watching.
We only use the Milano Wigrip. They will start slipping if they are stretched. It is best to never stretch the fiber. I usually can keep the same one for several months.
We had to remove it due to technical difficulties that caused such lagging it wasn't possible to actually see what we were doing. We shot another video that highlighted what we did. :)
If you've been using downy on your wig and have that build up, is there anything you can suggest to remove it and get your wig back into better condition?
Hi Catrina- the best thing we do to eliminate build up of fabric softener, hair shampoo or hairspray is Windex! I know, sounds weird but it does a great job breaking down ‘gunk’ without damaging the hair fiber. Just spray liberally and wait about 10-15 minutes and then proceed as normal with your synthetic wig shampoo. Sometimes, depending on the build up you will notice it still looks gummy while it is wet or has little white specks when it dries. Just do the whole thing over again. Wish you well!
oops I just did that tonight with three Yikes And they do look greasy I put conditioner on them too Luckily I think I have only done it maybe once before
I always look forward to your videos however when they come up they always say that the video was removed by the user-Is this something just on my end? Thx

How long does a wig typically last if you wear it a couple of times a week? And with that same scenario, how often would you have to wash it?
Typically we suggest washing every couple of weeks or after around 14 wears. If you wear it once a week then you could go for a few months. As for how long it will last depends on the quality of the hair fiber, type of fiber and length of the wig. Short can last as long as 8 months to a year for regular fiber and long as little as 3 months.

What’s your opinion on “It Stays” to adhere your wig?
Stacy Haviland many use that product with success. We try to stay away from adhesives as they can be difficult for your skin to tolerate on a regular basis. I wish you well.
You girls are just too cute, wish I lived in Texas so I could come to your shop
The background music makes your voices difficult to hear. Love the content and your explanations!
LeAnne Oliver thank you. We made this video several weeks ago and have since upgraded all of our equipment so that we have better streaming clarity, sound, etc. Thank you for watching.

I like that eig... I want a brown one
How much are tge wigs?
I live in Houston Tx. 😩 I would love to see your Boutique. Is there a good wig shop that is close to me! I live in Cypress Tx.
I love your video!
Are these A line bobs still in style? I don't see anyone wearing their hair like that now
I use a wig grip and lately it and my wig will slip. What is the best wig grip to buy?
We only use the Milano Wigrip. They will start slipping if they are stretched. It is best to never stretch the fiber. I usually can keep the same one for several months.
Some of your videos have been blocked from viewing. The one where you shorten a wig that was posted today says it has been removed.
We had to remove it due to technical difficulties that caused such lagging it wasn't possible to actually see what we were doing. We shot another video that highlighted what we did. :)
If you've been using downy on your wig and have that build up, is there anything you can suggest to remove it and get your wig back into better condition?
Hi Catrina- the best thing we do to eliminate build up of fabric softener, hair shampoo or hairspray is Windex! I know, sounds weird but it does a great job breaking down ‘gunk’ without damaging the hair fiber. Just spray liberally and wait about 10-15 minutes and then proceed as normal with your synthetic wig shampoo. Sometimes, depending on the build up you will notice it still looks gummy while it is wet or has little white specks when it dries. Just do the whole thing over again. Wish you well!
@@MimisWigChicks whoa!!! I am in shock. Never would have imagined! Is it safe to do it on the RW tru to life fibers?
Catrina Hampton yes ma’am! I know it sounds odd but the fiber responds well to it.
@@MimisWigChicks thank you so much for your quick response! I appreciate it!
So what wigs are you guys wearing?

I always look forward to your videos however when they come up they always say that the video was removed by the user-Is this something just on my end? Thx
We removed yesterday’s because the quality was so poor. The others should still be available
I love this episode
What is the best colour in that style without roots?Im going white and have gold added to my hair to give it some colour.
Milvi Bamber probably 24B22 would be your best option. Thank you for watching.
The wig looks great on both of you I tried it I don’t look as good as you ehhhh
How do you know what size cap?
Unless we specify all cap sizes are average.
This is the best😁👍
Hi I live in the uk do you have an online store to buy from?
We are working on getting it up and online. Hopefully it won't be long!
PLEASE cut out the music.
turn off the background music!!!!
I really love listening to you both but the music is so distracting
The music is way too loud ladies, struggling to hear your advice.
Can I ask the price of “Ignite”? This is going to be my Christmas present ♥️
It is $210. Thank you for watching.
