Thank you for the review! Pronunciation for HAUTE is easy. In French you do not pronounce the “H”, so that leaves you with the “aute” which should be pronounced as we say in english, “OAT”. Really simple, like “oats” we eat. Drop the “H” and just say OAT ❤ It is exactly like saying “ERB”, when you are speaking about “Herb”. Now, there are some people and there are some english speaking places where people actually pronounce that silent “H”. You have probably heard people say the “H” in “Herb” before. They say, “Hherb”, like we say if we are saying the name “Herbert”. I think in the UK they pronounce the “H” which is silent in “Herb” or “Haute” normally. Why call it HAUTE?? Well…Haute- is a fancy french fashion word. Very “chic”, mind you (not pronounced “CHICK”). “High fashion” in French is “haute couture”. That is the reference for the name of this wig. Haute as in haute couture. Fancy french, like “chic”
French Canadian here. She’s completely correct about the pronunciation of Haute. The direct translation is “High” as in high fashion “Haute Couture “ love your videos!!❤
In England we say herb with the h because that is how it is spelt We do not pronounce the h in haute because it is a French word and they do not use the h I've never understood really why Americans do not pronounce the h in herb
Wish these cute bobs came in ultra petite! Childrens wigs are the only ones I have found that run small enough. Wig makers need to address this issue..These all look great on you!
ALL of them are SUPER CUTE 😍 I wish Haute and Lia came with hand tied caps. It’s the only cap that I feel comfy in 🤷🏻♀ I just got 2 (different colors) McQueens, they will do a low baby pony also a half back. Not “too dense”. NOW you have me looking at Kristi 🫣🤣 She might be a wee bit shorter than McQueen 🤔 SO the big question is, “How many wigs do I need?” 😁
I agree with everyone else, you look fabulous in all the wigs 😊. I wanted to say a particular thank you for raising the shine issue. I have tried many different brands and find Jon Renau the worst for shine but …… love Kristi. Do they do a brunette with reasonable shine - brownie finale & fudgesicle were both ludicrously shiny even after dry shampoo, many washes, fabric softener, vinegar - nothing helped so I wouldn’t wear them!
Aw Thank you so much! ❤️ Agh, I know. The shine can get to me, too. I have Camilla by Jon Renau in 8RH14 Mousse Cake and I am actually feeling kind of ok with it!! The subtle dimension of the ash blonde highlights help break it up a bit and I have been feeling ok about wearing that color!😍
Thank you so much for your review and recommendation videos!!! They are such a great help when choosing wigs. Hairloss is not so scary anymore since I found your channel ❤
Gosh, I’m a Blondie but that color on Haute is absolutely stunning and makes me want it even though I would normally order it in PSB. I already have Kristen in PSB and you are right it is absolutely adorable and I’ve had that wig for seven years and I’ve thrown it in the backseat of the car and lost it and brushed it out and it never stops. I don’t know why, but it still looks fabulous, and I don’t know why this is the only wig that I have never taken care of properly.
Hi Amanda - I love Haute, but I am really loving all of the Jon Renau wigs and that is mainly because of the color Mousse Cake (now just saying that word sounds so yummy - just like the color)! ❤❤❤ Hmm ... pronounce is however you like, just my opinion! Enjoy your night!
Hi Amanda. Please can you demonstrate Lace Front Mono tops and introduced 100% premium human hair versions in Café Collection colors. I would like a blonde longish hair topper cos l want to see what it looks like l have 1" of hair. Ive gone through chemo and my hair is taking a long time to grow.
I have a question. I am new to wigs. And I am definitely going for a low volume piece. My question is, do the majority of people (or do you ) find it more comfortable to wear a wig with your remaining bio hair or after you shaved it?
Oops! I used a bit too much dry shampoo to do a little freshen up on 2 of my pieces. I toned the shine factor so much that I pretty much wiped it out! Any suggestions???
Lia II Mono Part seems like my most perfect style (it would be a perfect wig if it were hand tied). My issue is that all of EW’s colors seem warm 😭 I need a cool color. The best color I have found so far is Shaded Iced Latte Macchiato. Any recommendations for a cool color in Lia II??
Hi Darlene, Kristi is not heat friendly but you could mist the fibers with water, use non heated rollers and let it dry with the rollers in. When you take them out, you should have some wave. 😊
I am really looking for an ear to ear lace front wig with shoulder length hair. Low density. Warm shades of dark blonde like the colors you showed in this post. Thanks.
I thought I had a haute in silver grey many years ago and I loved it. I cut bangs into her BUT I don’t ever see it in grey anymore? So I don’t know what it was now but I want it again?
Please help me. I'm looking for a bob shorter at the sides than codi but a tiny bit longer than codi at the nape with fringe Preferably close to dark chocolate colour. Any suggestions? Thx!
I wish more wig makers did large cap versions. I like a shorter bob, like Kristi, but of course it only comes in "average" cap size. BUMMER! I don't care for the longer bobs or stacked bobs. Oh well.
Haute ,like Haute couture. It's french. I believe like most words with the French flare pronunciation, most ppl say it wrong. It's french so think of haute Couture. Hope that helps 🤗
Lia 2 is such a great style. What a shame that it is a total face flopper!! Every reviewer I’ve seen has had the same problem- as well as people who’ve purchased it that left reviews. 😢. I hope they can make a Lia 3 that gets rid of this issue!
You are gorgeous in strawberry syrup 😍 I love this color and not everyone can wear this color, but it looks like the color matches your skin perfectly

@@teresamichaud1253 you all are great! So much knowledge…thank you for sharing!

You look beautiful in all three of these gorgeous wigs. The strawberry syrup color looks so nice with your skin tone. Great reviews and information.
Thanks so much Katy!

Such a pretty colour, right?
@@chiquelwigs The 1st one
I love your advice. I would be terrified and not know where to start without you. Thank you. I love the bob so much.
@@andreaharrison3071 awww! So glad to help!
I just got Mariah by jon renau. Now, Mariah is a great looking wig. ❤
Yes yes yes! Exactly the review I was looking for. I have been seeing Haute so much and was wondering what hand tied cap is like it! Kristi! ❤
They are so similar!! ❤️

Hello! I was led to your channel after posting a video about my Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia diagnosis. I am wig shopping and overwhelmed!
@@Kathysvlogchannel make a list of your favorites and then research them on UA-cam
Former French teacher here: Yes, it's pronounced "OAT" - like the cereal.
@@maryvbates1425 merci😊
Do you think you could cut some wispy bangs into Kristi?
I’d like to know that as well.
Yes absolutely!❤
I wonder if heavier bangs could work too?
I never got haute but to own some Kristens and kristi, both are nice
@@jenguerro7880 they are nice!

I love all these on you.
Love all the Bobs but do you use a product on your long eyelashes? If so, can you share the name?
@@TheLarry2012 I only use mascara. ❤️ I use L’Oréal telescopic lift.
You look good in everything.
Judith, you just made my day! 😊
These are pretty wigs!! Thanks for sharing
Aren’t they all great?!?

Haha I like that 😂just say it however I want to 🤭❤️
Haute by Jon R , it is not in small ? I really love it I have Lia II but kinda this one is nicer LOL
lol! Unfortunately it is average sized. Does not come in petite. I’m a petite size though and don’t mind it. ❤
Hi Amanda. Please can you demonstrate Lace Front Mono tops and introduced 100% premium human hair versions in Café Collection colors. I would like a blonde longish hair topper cos l want to see what it looks like l have 1" of hair. Ive gone through chemo and my hair is taking a long time to grow.
I have a question. I am new to wigs. And I am definitely going for a low volume piece. My question is, do the majority of people (or do you ) find it more comfortable to wear a wig with your remaining bio hair or after you shaved it?
Hi Audrey, that’s going to be personal preference. I have been shaving what little hair I have for so long, I prefer it this way.
Do you ever recommend trimming bangs to conceal the hairline?
Oops! I used a bit too much dry shampoo to do a little freshen up on 2 of my pieces. I toned the shine factor so much that I pretty much wiped it out! Any suggestions???
Yes as in Haute couture ….same pronunciation x
@@sheilalaw3918 thank you 🥰
Do you know if there’s a hand tied low density chin length low density bob that will better fit a 21” head other than Kristi?
Lia II Mono Part seems like my most perfect style (it would be a perfect wig if it were hand tied). My issue is that all of EW’s colors seem warm 😭 I need a cool color. The best color I have found so far is Shaded Iced Latte Macchiato. Any recommendations for a cool color in Lia II??
Sand Multi Rooted
@@chiquelwigs you’re the best, Amanda! Thank you!
Like Kristi...but, is there a way to give it a little beachy wave?
Hi Darlene, Kristi is not heat friendly but you could mist the fibers with water, use non heated rollers and let it dry with the rollers in. When you take them out, you should have some wave. 😊
I am really looking for an ear to ear lace front wig with shoulder length hair. Low density. Warm shades of dark blonde like the colors you showed in this post. Thanks.
Perhaps you could look at Cameron Lite by Jon Renau. ❤ear to ear lace and sits just above shoulders.
Cute bobs ❤❤❤look natural too😊🎉
hote. Haute is french for top of the line, or very swish
I thought I had a haute in silver grey many years ago and I loved it. I cut bangs into her BUT I don’t ever see it in grey anymore? So I don’t know what it was now but I want it again?
It doesn’t come in gray so I’m not sure which wig you had. Was it a Jon Renau wig?
Can Haute be right parted? She's gorgeous on you!❤❤
Haute had a left mono part. 😊
Can straight bangs be cut into haute. Which heat styler is the best to help with frizz pleas xx
Yes, you can cut bangs into it. Any hot come, flat iron or hot brush would work.
I have ghds but worry this would feazzke the fibres
Great info 🩵🩵🩵
Does the Kristi, 100% hand tied slip up in back?
Haute means luxurious in French like haute-couture (“Au “ is a longue O) not short like hot.
@@gigicolette8989 thank you!
You look beautiful without a wig, also❣️✨🌼✨
@@portiawebb533 Thank you so much! ❤️
Haute "Hote" like "hotel"
French for "elevated" or "high"
I like Kristi but they are all very good looking.
You really can’t go wrong with any of them!!
Please help me. I'm looking for a bob shorter at the sides than codi but a tiny bit longer than codi at the nape with fringe Preferably close to dark chocolate colour. Any suggestions?
Thx!
Hmmm maybe Tori? Or Glamorize Always but give it a bit of a trim to add bangs?🤷🏻♀️❤️
Sorry I mean slightly shorter (angle) at the front than codi Thanks!
I wish more wig makers did large cap versions. I like a shorter bob, like Kristi, but of course it only comes in "average" cap size. BUMMER! I don't care for the longer bobs or stacked bobs. Oh well.
Where can I buy these
@@jackieropos4287 you can buy them from the links in the description! 😊
They all look amazing on you. It's funny, Kristi actually weighs less than Haute but Haute is lighter density, I wonder how that works!
Great question!! Haute may have less hair since it is open wefted 🤷🏼♀️
Kristi for sure
It’s great, right?!?
Haute ,like Haute couture. It's french. I believe like most words with the French flare pronunciation, most ppl say it wrong. It's french so think of haute Couture. Hope that helps 🤗
It does Christina, thanks!

@@paula-mw2ux it’s such an easy fix with a hot comb!
It’s pronounced like “oht”. That is the phonetic spelling, but most people say. Hout as in haute couture.
I speak French, it’s pronounced “ote”- long “o” as in vote.
Thank you so much! ❤️
It's pronounced like hote 😊
Christy
Isn’t Kristi just so amazing?!😍
I love that bob.
You’re almost right; pronounce like, “OUUT” not oat. Don’t pronounce the “H” I hope this helps.
It definitely helps!! I appreciate it! Thank you 🥰
(h)ote coe tyure. Almost silent h? But not.
lol thank you so much!!❤
@@chiquelwigs I'm from Canada. We pronounce French even when we don't understand it.
