  • Ladies & Gents have you ever had a wig... and you weren't sure if was you... so you let it go and then later realized you made a mistake.... Well I have and my biggest regret was with ALVA!!! Alva was released in fall 2020 by Noriko. I regretted letting it go so bad that I finally purchased her myself. I love how simple this piece is and literally now I have seen her on tons of women and men and this wig looks amazing on EVERYONE! So watch this video and see what I'm talking about.
    I still do my standard review style with showing all sides of this wig, showing it to you outside, doing some fun styling and then a look into the cap and then a recap. I hope you enjoy this video!!!

    Hi. My wig journey began 7 years ago and I was a brunette. I wore Alva to death along with several other’s. 7 years later I’m now a blonde lover and just ordered Alva again in Sugar Cane R after seeing this video. I’m in love all over again with her! Lol
    Thanks for your candid honesty.

    My very favorite wig. The bangs are awesome! It's long on me; it lays below my shoulders. So, not good for everyday wear, just weekends and special occasions. Wished there were more petite styles in the more popular wigs. Sigh.

    I like Alva on you! I bought her in Creamy Toffee R as well, but I haven't worn her, so I'll probably sell her. I think it's the lack of mono features that bothers me the most, but I also don't want dark roots. Both colors look great on you! 😍

    Alva is actually my perfect style, BUT the closed cap is what keeps me from buying her. She looks great on everyone I see her on, you included!, and I know by looking at her I'd love her on me. I also know that I'd heat up in a hot second. The chocolate frost is to die for. You need to get that one again. :)

    In my opinion, creamy toffee R looks WAY better on you than the chocolate frost in the other video. Perhaps that is why you sent the other one back?? I've found that colors I wear all the time, in certain styles....just don't look as fabulous, and I have to change it up.

    I purchased JR Julianne and hated her on me. I proceeded to steam, cut, restyle, root...etc. Ultimately I was never satisfied and after all my "work" on her her fibers were awful. I ended up throwing her away. I regret that. I wish I would have just left her alone and put her in a box until I learned more about this wig journey. I would have found a better way to use her, like pinning her back or using a headband...or even selling her or giving her away. It was a good, expensive, lesson.

    • @WigginWithChristi
      @WigginWithChristi  3 роки тому +1

      oh man I definitely remember my beginning wig days... was so hard...Julianne is such a pretty wig ut definitely needs playing with especially if she got a little box crimping. So sorry you had such a hard time with her.

      We've all been there Danielle! I reckon the best ones to teach yourself wig skills on are the cheap Amazon ones. I got one of those suckers and took it apart. Taught myself how to remove wefts to reduce size, how to thin and trim etc. I think the wavy pieces can be the most tricky. I have a BelleTress Caliente that I keep putting on and thinking I'm just not sure - those waves seem to go out at all kinds of angles. I've passed on a few disastrous choices to my local hospice - hopefully some lady undergoing cancer treatment will be able to get some fun out of them!

    Love this wig on you! However I always have trouble trying to find a bright red copper which is my color. And wigs! I have settle for light red by envy which is really not light but I can get away with it. Seems to be the only company that makes a decent read. I know Raquel Welch has a couple very similar to light a red with envy. Does state it comes in a Chestnut looks like there’s some read through that are you familiarWith that particular color!
