Younger female here. I am so surprised to see how many women are ashamed to wear wigs. Please be confident! ❤️ you are beautiful and wigs are in. Thanks for the great video! Can’t wait to wear some more wigs
My fear is people will be able to tell, and as an older woman, what would men think as I am single and would be subconscious about when to tell them, if they can't already know!
I get that. I'm not single but I'm still very self conscious. My own mother embarrassed me so badly at the Christmas dinner table, as it was my first time to wear my topper. Now I've gone to this wig Jill's putting on. No, I haven't let me mom see it. She'll tell everyone she knows. Bless her heart :(
@@alliecat4176 Hi Allie!! 🥹❤️ I met my fiancé way back when I was wearing tape-in extensions, then moved to toppers, then moved to wigs and honestly I always thought the same!! I was always so worried about dating when I was single. But like I said, the guy I dated is soon to be my husband now and he has loved me through it all. He’s found it FUN and it all came down to my confidence while wearing them, and simply if I was having fun and loving life, he was having fun and loving life right along with me. Worries are normal and fear is natural to have, but I wish someone had told me not to be afraid. Everything was totally okay ❤
@@lidip8700 ❤ Lidi, oh my goodness. Your story touched my heart. I too had a similar experience with a family member when I was new to wigs and it was devastating. I am curious to know how you are doing now and if you’re comfortable around your family in your wigs now? ❤ sending you so much love and positive vibes xo
I don't know if it's the miracle of makeup, or the miracle of your genetics, but you are the only woman I've ever seen that was still gorgeous even with a stocking on her head! Thanks for this video, I know it's old, but it's new to me, and SO helpful and informative!
Hey Jill...I've been watching you for about a year. Silent until now, trying to get up my nerve to take that first real step. Well today I did it.....got my FIRST wig. Jamison in salted caramel. It's all because of you. You really make me believe I can go in public and most people just won't know it's a wig. I'm sure I'm not the only person out here that you have helped. Thank You for your time, instructions and guidance.
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy Hi, lovely lady! Taking a chance, and asking you if you have ever tried GodivasSecretWigs, and what you might have thought about them ?? Maggie
This method works far better than any other method I've tried. For some reason, I always have hair that slips out from clips or pins at the bottom of my hair line. Drives me nuts! Using the wig cap and the It Stays has solved the problem, and I feel so good when I wear my wigs. Thank you!
I followed your instructions to put on my wig using it stays for the first time today. I wore the wig for just a few hours, and rode in the car with my husband to Walmart. I didn't have the nerve to go in, but that's okay since we are only allowed to have one family member in at a time. Your instructions gave me the confidence to wear the wig outside the house. It's not the right color for me, so I probably won't wear it to work at least not right away. I have devoured your wig videos and I appreciate them so much thank you. What I have found after wearing did wig this evening is that I need more bold eye makeup! I think I need to watch some of your makeup videos now. Thank you from Laura in Carthage Missouri
I just got my first wig, cap and It Stays, so excited to start this, what little hair I have is very fine and I'm almost bald, so this will be a change for me, I thank you for all the great information, without your great teaching I would not be able to do this, thanks for your help.
I'm in the experimental stage. Bought a $23.00 long salt& pepper wig. I don't like caps either. I feel like my wig moves. Love you video. Never heard of the glue. Gonna check it out. I Love playing, having different looks & I'm 65yrs old. Thanks a million!!!
Jill I have watched hundreds of wig/topper videos but I always always find yours the most informative and easy to follow. I was watching you before I started wearing hair. Thank YOU!!!
Hi Michelle! Aww....this is so nice to read this morning! I am thrilled you find these helpful to you. I appreciate you tuning in, and for your kind words. Hugs~
I find simply using a small spray bottle with water and spraying the area that needs to release the "it stays" glue, works very well for me. It is much easier than cupping water and bending over in the sink....(for me). I do have a small hand towel at hand for drips and blotting. Hope this is helpful! Thanks for all of your tips and videos.
Love this. I have lost so much hair due to both covid and a medication injury. I've tried everything under the sun and finally facing the need to start wearing wigs and learning how to. I've been so down about this, but changing my attitude from "I have to wear wigs" to "I GET to wear wigs and have FUN with it." ~xoxo!!!
This video is such a huge help! I just started using It Stays after trying out extended wear with Walker's blue tape, which is not quite for me (I want to be able to easily remove it every day). I was having a little trouble getting the hang of it the It Stays, but I feel a lot more confident now having watched this. Your explanations are so clear and easy to follow. Thank you!
Hello Kiki! I am thrilled you found this helpful! I sure appreciate you taking time to let me know! (and of course I appreciate that you tuned in!) Have a lovely day~
THANK YOU for taking this process SLOWLY! Other videos I’ve watched motor through gluing on a lace wig so quickly they leave out the details, and I can’t keep up. I guess presenters are so used to doing it they forget what it’s like to be new at it. Your step by step demo really helped me and gave me confidence. And I learned new things! (By the way I got some “It Stays” recently and found the ball applicator very difficult, so I transferred it to a small airtight plastic container and I use a tiny stiff art paintbrush to apply it. Works well!).
That Editor's Pick is really gorgeous on you! Thanks for the tips. I started wearing wigs in April of this year and I have to agree with your opinion of the wig grip bands. They wprk really well for me, but seem to get tighter as the day progresses and they definitely add bulk. Nice to know there are other options to secure my wig.
Thank U Jill 🧡 Im a long time subscriber (but hardly comment 🤷🏼♀️). But today I wanted to say thank you for a great detailed (but to the point) tutorial. And yes I always watch’m to the end 😆. I have the same feeling about the wig grip - the less on my head the better. Great tips in this Video
Excellent video. Thank you for showing the full install & removal. The only tip I learned about It Stays besides it working is to store the bottle upside down. Keeps the roller ball from getting stuck/dry. Works perfectly every time.
This content is so appreciated.it’s really great to have support in finding our way with wigs. Everyone is different in t What is suitable. All these elements are great for consideration for our wig experiences. Thanks wig sista!
It's as though this video was made just for me. I've tried velvet and silicone wig grips but hate the extra layers. My wigs also ride up in the back, so I'll definitely be trying the wig tape and the It Stays. Great video - thanks!
Me too. I have a long human hair wig. Even though it's thinned still heavy. I cut and hand sewed a silicone grip at the sides of my monofilament top. Definitely more secure to keep the back from riding up. Works great for 4-6 hrs and then the monofilament top starts sliding back on my natural hair. The velvet grips did same. I think it's my fine thin hair, too slippery. I like this idea, she made it into a wide band. Must admit, it already looks more comfortable. I just need to keep the top from sliding. Our black beauties tie a headband around where they apply adhesive to help what they call melt the grip. But they wear all lace vs caps. Totally different install.
I am rewriting my comment because it came out so poorly. It is absolutely amazing how you say you were not used to wearing this new wig… It is absolutely gorgeous on you; you happen to be a very beautiful woman in more ways than one. I am very new to wigs, I obsess about them all the time And watch many many UA-cam’s,of which you are my absolute favorite, And I also spend many hours where I should be sleeping going over and over in my head about the concepts. Thank you so much for all that you share.
Thank you, I've yet to find the wig I want most likely 16 inch maybe shorter with bangs. Yours l👀ks fantastic. I think auburn would l👀k fabulous on you also. ♥️☮️✝️🍀🐞🙏
That’s very informative! Thank you so much. I tried a box of those Jon Renau nylon wig caps. By the time I had my wig on and wore it for 5 minutes that Jon Renau nylon cap was completely stretched out and would not snap back to shape. In other words, within 5 minutes, my wig was floating on top of the floating nylon cap. A real waste of money! They should at least hold their shape and hug your head! Maybe I should try the It Stays. But I’m actually very happy with the wig grip
Thank you. Thank you. We are about the same age and i have decided to try wigs. I bought my first and i like it very much, but it will not stay put. I am going to try what you suggested. My husband at first didn’t like it and my adult children laughed at me. But i am feeling more comfortable wearing one. You are so beautiful and you wear your make up the way i have always. I tried other looks, lord knows i get bored with my looks. Seasons change so i need a change. I have subscribed and will be looking forward many other videos.
In just deciding to wear wigs since I've lost some hair and it's thinned out a lot after various surgeries since 2010. My hairstylist had any extremely beautiful one on a few weeks ago and I didn't recognize her it first but heard her voice & what she had on reminded me of what my hair used to look like especially with the curls. Therefore, I'm very, very new to all of this and wanted to get some tips from her but she was with a client. I recently had surgery on one of hands and although i just got the stitches out, it's been tough trying to do my hair. I'm gonna check out more of your videos but definitely wanna thank you so much for sharing these tips etc. you are so beautiful 💜
Thanks SO SO much for your time and help with wigs...yes, I am new but feel like I am now part of a new sisterhood! 😊Of course it wasn't an easy first step, but I am so glad you helped me.💓
Awww....what a very kind and sweet comment to read! Thank you for taking the time to write/post it. It is very encouraging for me. I appreciate you! You indeed ARE part of a sisterhood.
New to wigs and loving your info, how thorough you are, and that you are able to show us what someone who's not necessarily a pro at this should and can do. Thank you!!! :D
I find you so helpful I’m new to wigs and I too have hair issues and wigs are my choice now so any help is wonderful cause any tip that will save me time and mess ups is wonderful. So keep up the great advice it’s very helpful.
Great tips Jill! I have the hardest time keeping a wig on, not because of fit, but because i dont really have that occipital bone ledge... my head is kind of flat in the back, so i have been using clips in my bio hair, however they tend to make me itch and be uncomfortable, luckly i can do a small low ponytail that works as that occipital bone lol ... I tried using a wig grip without the ponytail but the wig grip slides right off. So I am going to try your tip and use some It Stays , combined with the wig grip, and my pony tail and see how all of that works !! I think the ponytail and the It stays will help my Wig grip stay on better.
❤ Jill Thank you so much. I was hoping you would answer my question and you did with this video.Thank you so much I will need to order some( it stays) .I do not like the band ,like you said and plus it doesn't hold very tightly and I will order the tape. Thank you so so much have a wonderful day .🌺
Another wonderful informative video Jill. Thank you. Any chance you would do a make up tutorial and list what cosmetics you use? You look absolutely amazing!
Thank you so much for this video! You gave me hope that I'll be able to finally wear my wig! I have the same flat head problem of it riding up on me. I'm excited to use It Stays now! Also, my picture is really old and before my hair loss.
I'm new to this, I lost my hair after my Dad died.. I guess my nerves 😪 I have decided to go the wig route, hoping to get some ideas on what kind of wig to buy that looks real. I appreciate all the info 🥰❣
I'm new to the wig world. I found your video. Thank you for the information. It's helped me a great deal as a beginner. You're absolutely beautiful. And your hair it's gorgeous no one would ever know I will be continuing watching your videos and getting myself educated. Thanks again, have a great hair day.❤❤❤❤❤
Thankyou so much! As a "newbie" im having so much trouble trying to fit wigs on my head, despite being vigilent on measuring! Thankyou for the tip on shaving my low nape hair!
I am very new to wearing wigs. In fact, I have yet to wear one public. My own hair has thinned so much, that it feels like I only have three hairs on my head. My confidence level is very low with my own hair as well as trying to look normal in a wig. I’m all thumbs. I enjoyed watching this video! What a great help you are in teaching me how to put one on and remove it. My head is also flat on the back and I feel the discomfort of the wig riding up. I especially loved the products you shared. I measured my head the way you’re supposed too. For some reason the wigs don’t fit right. The stocking idea you shared, makes perfect sense with the roll on you used. And yes, the itchies are a bother under the wig. I’m trying to figure out the right style for me. I have naturally curly hair, which I realize cannot be recaptured. I’m looking more at the wavey wigs. I want this to be simple for myself and not so complicated. The wigs are so thick; I’ve purchased a pair of hair thinning scissors to reduce that fake looking fullness. I just want to look natural. I have trouble achieving that! Makes me sad a very unconfident! Marjorie
Just fell on this video. Recently started to wear wigs due to chemo induced hair loss. Thank you so much for this instruction video. It is quite late whete I live but plan to order products tomorrow. Thank you again Ms Jill.
I have the same issue with the back of my skull being sort of flat and sometimes, the wig rides up, but I haven’t come across that problem using the wig grip. Guess I’m sold. 👍
Thank you for this video. I did shave my neck and now I know to apply tape to wig and not neck first. I'm going to try the net next time. Looking forward to loving my wigs. I do like that editors pick you were wearing. Looking forward to seeing your next inspirational video.
I love to watch your videos. You are so helpful, I learn something every time. I would love to see you with your bio hair as you would fix it if not wearing a wig. Thanks and keep showing how to do these things.
I'm so upset! Got scammed today with a wig that is from China! I'm so stupid. .. Your videos are just the Best! I have learned so much from you, thank you ! I should have known you can't get a quality wig for $38.00 . Thank you for letting me vent !
Oh Rita I'm so sorry to hear that! I was just wondering if you found the wig scammers through Facebook/Instagram because many women bought from them and received wigs that were substandard. I watched a few victims unbox these wigs on UA-cam and calling these wigs "substandard" was me being generous. They were plastic Halloween wigs that I wouldn't even wear with a costume! You are NOT stupid and you are not alone. Best advice I've received was.... If you're going to ever shop online, get a Paypal account and use it! Paypal refunded everyone who complained and didn't even bother asking for the wigs. Also, don't buy anything through Facebook, Instagram, etc. I have only found one company with good products called "Thrive Cosmetics". The rest are all scams that send you crapp I could've bought on Wish for $2-$8. I hope maybe you can still be get your $$ back. Try Amazon. No joke, but the most realistic wig I own came from Amazon and cost $36! I love my Amazon wigs and they were lace fronts if you can believe it!
@@ritamahoney4131 I have purchased wigs from all over, at all different price points. It is so worth spending the extra $ for a decent wig! Even when I have gotten a wig from Amazon that wasn't much money yet looked good they never lasted long. The quality makes a big difference in how long it lasts. I find the best bets are perusing EBay and finding Brand Name wigs starting at low bids. I have gotten quite a few new in box with tags attached. Last month, a seller I purchased off before had a Zoey by Envy wig. She sent receipt (spent $1400 on sale). A stylist cut bangs in and its a perfect new monotop, lacefront wig for me!
Thanks Jill. This was sooooooo good. YOU were the 1st one I watch when I decided I needed a wig. I saw the original. Do you do anything different now? Hugs. P.S. Lovin your new long wigs ... You look amazing Jill. Congrats on your weight loss. I followed your KETO and because of you now have lost 10 real (not water weight) pounds. My goal is 30 more by Fall. I know I can do it. People like you make it possible. God bless Jill. From NY "Angela".
Thank you I'm wearing wigs now and my cap keeps slipping so I'm looking forward to seeing more videos from you thank you and God bless going on a six-time cancer survivor
Thanks so much for showing us all the tips that could help us wig wearers. Just wondering if you could sometime demonstrate how you trim your neck hairs so we too could do ours without going to a salon?
Thank you so much for your video! I have been looking for an explanation for a few months now. I was told to just put my hair in a bun and slap the wig on. Well, it keeps on sliding down my forehead and I am constantly moving. Plus it is so hot and itchy. I need to find that sticky stuff, and give that a go, and the nylon thingy. You are so beautiful in your wig, and without it. Thank you!
So happy I found you ❤ this video is from 3 yrs ago so I’m sure you’ve stepped your game up sense then. This was the video that sold me. I went on this site I’ve been looking at for a while and I purchased a wig. It’s nerve wracking 😂
Great advice. I have trouble with the wig cap. I use the headband and stay wig glue. Afterwards i dip my whole head into the sink. I want to try the wig caps again after watching you. Great wig on you❤
This was great! I have been toying with the idea of tape and It Stays. But was scared that it might ruin my lace. Thank you for this very educational UA-cam video. It has helped me tremendously.
I hate to bother you with a silly question, but would you mind sharing what foundation and or power you use for your makeup? Mine gets in the creases and makes it look like I have severe wrinkles and I do not know what to do to stop that. Your makeup looks so pretty. So so pretty. I'm not done watching the video but so far your amazing on the details of how to do this. Thank you so much for your time, and answer if you reply. If not, thank you any ways for reading this. Have a really amazing day! 🤗
Thank you for this! I too, have a flat head in the bCk and my wig keeps riding up! I still work and it drives me nuts! I had to stop wearing the caps as they caused me to it h SO bad. I bought the velvet band and it helped so much! Gonna try It Stays now!
Thanks so much Jill, I’ve been wondering about wig caps and wig tape, It Stays, and how to use them. Love your style, very clear and makes so much sense to me. 💕 What happens to the glue if you get hot and sweat? Does it loosen?
Your tutorial is very helpful! I don't have any hair to grab a comb so I don't use them . They are more of an annoyance . I have been using the wig-grips , but I did noticed that they do move in the nape area. Eventually it has moved toward the front of my head. I bought It Stays a few years ago to use on my support hose. I had no idea I could use it on my wigs. I tried it on both my lace front and one without lace. I did have the problems with it sticking on the lace. But with the other wig it was great! It was wonderful not having to wear the wig grip! Thanks for the tips. I have joined your community!
Thank you! I've just started wearing full wigs. (As opposed to toppers). I've always used clips to secure my wigs. I decided to try the headband but It slips up and drives me! I'll try the It Stays.
Same! They drive me nuts....and the wig stocking did too, but using the It Stays has really helped w/ that and without discovering it I would not be wearing wigs today! That stuff is amazing.
Thank You!! I’m new to this. My hair was long thick full and beautiful natural curls. I chopped it 4 years ago. It grows so fast However it has so much breakage I have no length. Also thin. So I’ve decided- Wigs!! And I don’t care who k led!!
Hi Jill! I’m Jinn from Dallas TX, area. I look forward to learning from you. Just turned 60 and my hair doesn’t grow fast and am very anxious about looking natural. Thanks for the warm welcome! ❤️

I am very new to wigs, I obsess about them all the time And watch many many UA-cam’s,of which you are my absolute favorite, And I also spend many hours where I should be sleeping going over and over in my head about the concepts. Thank you so much for all that you share.
Thank you, I've yet to find the wig I want most likely 16 inch maybe shorter with bangs. Yours l👀ks fantastic. I think auburn would l👀k fabulous on you also. ♥️☮️✝️🍀🐞🙏
That’s very informative! Thank you so much. I tried a box of those Jon Renau nylon wig caps. By the time I had my wig on and wore it for 5 minutes that Jon Renau nylon cap was completely stretched out and would not snap back to shape. In other words, within 5 minutes, my wig was floating on top of the floating nylon cap. A real waste of money! They should at least hold their shape and hug your head! Maybe I should try the It Stays. But I’m actually very happy with the wig grip
Thank you. Thank you. We are about the same age and i have decided to try wigs. I bought my first and i like it very much, but it will not stay put. I am going to try what you suggested. My husband at first didn’t like it and my adult children laughed at me. But i am feeling more comfortable wearing one. You are so beautiful and you wear your make up the way i have always. I tried other looks, lord knows i get bored with my looks. Seasons change so i need a change. I have subscribed and will be looking forward many other videos.
In just deciding to wear wigs since I've lost some hair and it's thinned out a lot after various surgeries since 2010. My hairstylist had any extremely beautiful one on a few weeks ago and I didn't recognize her it first but heard her voice & what she had on reminded me of what my hair used to look like especially with the curls. Therefore, I'm very, very new to all of this and wanted to get some tips from her but she was with a client. I recently had surgery on one of hands and although i just got the stitches out, it's been tough trying to do my hair. I'm gonna check out more of your videos but definitely wanna thank you so much for sharing these tips etc. you are so beautiful 💜
Bought my first wig and having trouble putting it on....lov your tutorials....keep it up.....
Just got my “It Stays”. Thanks so much. Used it today for the first time and I am loving it!
Awesome! Thank you for all your wisdom. Where can I order that beautiful wig? What color and brand.
Thanks SO SO much for your time and help with wigs...yes, I am new but feel like I am now part of a new sisterhood! 😊Of course it wasn't an easy first step, but I am so glad you helped me.💓
Awww....what a very kind and sweet comment to read! Thank you for taking the time to write/post it. It is very encouraging for me. I appreciate you! You indeed ARE part of a sisterhood.
I liked that sisterhood comment very sweet! We all need each other for sure. 💕
You are one of the best UA-camrs!! I always enjoy your videos! You would make a great teacher!
Aww....thank you, Katie! You are very sweet!
Hi Jill, I Enjoyed watching and learning. Thank you for the very helpful suggestions. I Hope to see you again soon. Sunny
Your hair looks beautiful-with AND without wigs! Your natural hair is short sheek and cute thank you for the helpful video
Thank you for this. It’s exactly what I was looking to see! I just got my first wig and it’s the one you have in the video.
New to wigs and loving your info, how thorough you are, and that you are able to show us what someone who's not necessarily a pro at this should and can do. Thank you!!! :D
This wig looks so natural on you! Adorable! Thanks for the info, so helpful.
Contemplating a wig for a different look. Have looked at about 200 videos so far and this is definitely the best! Thanks for sharing your experience!
I find you so helpful I’m new to wigs and I too have hair issues and wigs are my choice now so any help is wonderful cause any tip that will save me time and mess ups is wonderful. So keep up the great advice it’s very helpful.
I love your videos! I am a NEW wig wearer...I can need all the tips I can get! Thanks for sharing your expertise❤️
Anne Whitlock I am thrilled you find them helpful! Thanks so much for posting this kind comment!
I would love to see a wig collection video :) thanks mom 😁😘
PS: I love your videos !
Thank you! I never thought of that...That would be fun to do!
Great tips Jill! I have the hardest time keeping a wig on, not because of fit, but because i dont really have that occipital bone ledge... my head is kind of flat in the back, so i have been using clips in my bio hair, however they tend to make me itch and be uncomfortable, luckly i can do a small low ponytail that works as that occipital bone lol ... I tried using a wig grip without the ponytail but the wig grip slides right off. So I am going to try your tip and use some It Stays , combined with the wig grip, and my pony tail and see how all of that works !! I think the ponytail and the It stays will help my Wig grip stay on better.
Thank you! I'm starting a new job and my hair is really thin. So I bought a wig and I just love it.
thanks, very informative video
❤ Jill Thank you so much. I was hoping you would answer my question and you did with this video.Thank you so much I will need to order some( it stays) .I do not like the band ,like you said and plus it doesn't hold very tightly and I will order the tape. Thank you so so much have a wonderful day .🌺
I hope it helps you, Pamela! You have a wonderful week!
Another wonderful informative video Jill. Thank you. Any chance you would do a make up tutorial and list what cosmetics you use? You look absolutely amazing!
Thanks so much, Cheryl! I do have several makeup tutorials...I hope you enjoy them! You are very sweet to ask. Have a lovely day~
Good to know I'm going to be dancing in my first wig. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for this video! You gave me hope that I'll be able to finally wear my wig! I have the same flat head problem of it riding up on me. I'm excited to use It Stays now! Also, my picture is really old and before my hair loss.
You look so great in this wig, and your skin is amazing. Like your videos.
You really look awesome in light blonde! Ignite is still my fav tho
Editor’s Pick is the best wig on you! Absolutely lovely!
This is the first time I’m thinking of getting a wig. Your tutorial is very informative. Thank you!
That's so exciting! ....thank you so much for your nice compliment. Makes my night knowing this helped you in some way. 😄❤
Thank you,Jill.... a lot of great information. Thanks for sharing this with everyone, love your videos. 💕
I am so happy you enjoyed this....and THANK YOU for watching! Hugs~
I'm new to this, I lost my hair after my Dad died.. I guess my nerves 😪 I have decided to go the wig route, hoping to get some ideas on what kind of wig to buy that looks real. I appreciate all the info 🥰❣
I'm new to the wig world. I found your video. Thank you for the information. It's helped me a great deal as a beginner. You're absolutely beautiful. And your hair it's gorgeous no one would ever know I will be continuing watching your videos and getting myself educated. Thanks again, have a great hair day.❤❤❤❤❤
Wow amazing. I can’t believe how real it looks! Great!!!
Thank you! I’ve been searching for this information and am so happy I found your channel!
Thankyou so much! As a "newbie" im having so much trouble trying to fit wigs on my head, despite being vigilent on measuring! Thankyou for the tip on shaving my low nape hair!
I am very new to wearing wigs. In fact, I have yet to wear one public. My own hair has thinned so much, that it feels like I only have three hairs on my head. My confidence level is very low with my own hair as well as trying to look normal in a wig. I’m all thumbs. I enjoyed watching this video! What a great help you are in teaching me how to put one on and remove it. My head is also flat on the back and I feel the discomfort of the wig riding up. I especially loved the products you shared. I measured my head the way you’re supposed too. For some reason the wigs don’t fit right. The stocking idea you shared, makes perfect sense with the roll on you used. And yes, the itchies are a bother under the wig. I’m trying to figure out the right style for me. I have naturally curly hair, which I realize cannot be recaptured. I’m looking more at the wavey wigs. I want this to be simple for myself and not so complicated. The wigs are so thick; I’ve purchased a pair of hair thinning scissors to reduce that fake looking fullness. I just want to look natural. I have trouble achieving that! Makes me sad a very unconfident!

Just fell on this video. Recently started to wear wigs due to chemo induced hair loss. Thank you so much for this instruction video. It is quite late whete I live but plan to order products tomorrow. Thank you again Ms Jill.
Great advise. Got my first wig. Keeping fingers crossed
I've been wanting to wear wigs for a long time but didn't know how.. THANK YOU!!! EXCELLENT DETAIL
You are the best teacher I will be using your tricks!
Aww...what a nice compliment! Thank you! So happy you found this helpful. ;)
I have the same issue with the back of my skull being sort of flat and sometimes, the wig rides up, but I haven’t come across that problem using the wig grip. Guess I’m sold. 👍
Thank you for this video. I did shave my neck and now I know to apply tape to wig and not neck first. I'm going to try the net next time. Looking forward to loving my wigs. I do like that editors pick you were wearing. Looking forward to seeing your next inspirational video.
Thanks Jo! I do hope you find this helps you! Hugs!
Oh! This is how to use It Stays! It does seem like a lot of work but sounds like the time it takes is well worth it. Thank you for sharing!
I love to watch your videos. You are so helpful, I learn something every time. I would love to see you with your bio hair as you would fix it if not wearing a wig. Thanks and keep showing how to do these things.
I'm so upset! Got scammed today with a wig that is from China! I'm so stupid. ..
Your videos are just the Best! I have learned so much from you, thank you !
I should have known you can't get a quality wig for $38.00 .
Thank you for letting me vent !
Rita Mahoney been there. Done that!! 😞😡😘
Oh Rita I'm so sorry to hear that! I was just wondering if you found the wig scammers through Facebook/Instagram because many women bought from them and received wigs that were substandard. I watched a few victims unbox these wigs on UA-cam and calling these wigs "substandard" was me being generous. They were plastic Halloween wigs that I wouldn't even wear with a costume!
You are NOT stupid and you are not alone. Best advice I've received was.... If you're going to ever shop online, get a Paypal account and use it! Paypal refunded everyone who complained and didn't even bother asking for the wigs. Also, don't buy anything through Facebook, Instagram, etc. I have only found one company with good products called "Thrive Cosmetics". The rest are all scams that send you crapp I could've bought on Wish for $2-$8. I hope maybe you can still be get your $$ back.
Try Amazon. No joke, but the most realistic wig I own came from Amazon and cost $36! I love my Amazon wigs and they were lace fronts if you can believe it!
Thank you so much for responding, I'll check on Amazon !
❤ ❤ ❤ your Video's!
@@ritamahoney4131 I have purchased wigs from all over, at all different price points. It is so worth spending the extra $ for a decent wig! Even when I have gotten a wig from Amazon that wasn't much money yet looked good they never lasted long. The quality makes a big difference in how long it lasts. I find the best bets are perusing EBay and finding Brand Name wigs starting at low bids. I have gotten quite a few new in box with tags attached. Last month, a seller I purchased off before had a Zoey by Envy wig. She sent receipt (spent $1400 on sale). A stylist cut bangs in and its a perfect new monotop, lacefront wig for me!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have been rapidly losing my hair this last year and so nervous about wearing a wig. This helps so much
Thanks Jill. This was sooooooo good. YOU were the 1st one I watch when I decided I needed a wig. I saw the original. Do you do anything different now? Hugs. P.S. Lovin your new long wigs ... You look amazing Jill. Congrats on your weight loss. I followed your KETO and because of you now have lost 10 real (not water weight) pounds. My goal is 30 more by Fall. I know I can do it. People like you make it possible. God bless Jill. From NY "Angela".
Thank you I'm wearing wigs now and my cap keeps slipping so I'm looking forward to seeing more videos from you thank you and God bless going on a six-time cancer survivor
This is the first time ever I got some useful information! You rock! Btw you look gorgeous with this wig! ❤️
Thanks so much for showing us all the tips that could help us wig wearers. Just wondering if you could sometime demonstrate how you trim your neck hairs so we too could do ours without going to a salon?
HI Gale! I just shave it in the shower while the shampoo is still there w/ a regular Venus razor! I definitely cannot dry shave!
Oh and by the way you looked amazing in that wig every one of those always looks great on you I think truly you could pull off any one you put on 😉
If only! haha! Than you! I am still trying to warm up to this one. ;)
Thank you so much for your video! I have been looking for an explanation for a few months now. I was told to just put my hair in a bun and slap the wig on. Well, it keeps on sliding down my forehead and I am constantly moving. Plus it is so hot and itchy. I need to find that sticky stuff, and give that a go, and the nylon thingy. You are so beautiful in your wig, and without it. Thank you!
So happy I found you ❤ this video is from 3 yrs ago so I’m sure you’ve stepped your game up sense then. This was the video that sold me. I went on this site I’ve been looking at for a while and I purchased a wig. It’s nerve wracking 😂
Great advice. I have trouble with the wig cap. I use the headband and stay wig glue. Afterwards i dip my whole head into the sink. I want to try the wig caps again after watching you. Great wig on you❤
This was great! I have been toying with the idea of tape and It Stays. But was scared that it might ruin my lace. Thank you for this very educational UA-cam video. It has helped me tremendously.
Carol Marks I am thrilled you found this helpful! Thanks so much for posting!
I hate to bother you with a silly question, but would you mind sharing what foundation and or power you use for your makeup? Mine gets in the creases and makes it look like I have severe wrinkles and I do not know what to do to stop that. Your makeup looks so pretty. So so pretty. I'm not done watching the video but so far your amazing on the details of how to do this. Thank you so much for your time, and answer if you reply. If not, thank you any ways for reading this. Have a really amazing day! 🤗
Thanks so much I’m a new on my wig journey and you have answered so many of my questions.
I'm so happy you found this helpful! Hope you find plenty more that you enjoy! ;)
The wig looks really great on you Thank you for the tips appreciate your help 💞
Thank you for this! I too, have a flat head in the bCk and my wig keeps riding up! I still work and it drives me nuts! I had to stop wearing the caps as they caused me to it h SO bad. I bought the velvet band and it helped so much! Gonna try It Stays now!
Thanks so much Jill, I’ve been wondering about wig caps and wig tape, It Stays, and how to use them. Love your style, very clear and makes so much sense to me. 💕
What happens to the glue if you get hot and sweat? Does it loosen?
Yup
I sweat on my forehead a lot in this Arizona heat and the It stays releases. I’m going to try wig tape and wig grips next. Wish me luck.
Thank you for all this great information, I have been wanting to get away from the wig bands due to headaches and itching.
Your tutorial is very helpful! I don't have any hair to grab a comb so I don't use them . They are more of an annoyance . I have been using the wig-grips , but I did noticed that they do move in the nape area. Eventually it has moved toward the front of my head. I bought It Stays a few years ago to use on my support hose. I had no idea I could use it on my wigs. I tried it on both my lace front and one without lace. I did have the problems with it sticking on the lace. But with the other wig it was great! It was wonderful not having to wear the wig grip! Thanks for the tips. I have joined your community!
Thank you! I've just started wearing full wigs. (As opposed to toppers). I've always used clips to secure my wigs. I decided to try the headband but It slips up and drives me! I'll try the It Stays.
Same! They drive me nuts....and the wig stocking did too, but using the It Stays has really helped w/ that and without discovering it I would not be wearing wigs today! That stuff is amazing.
Thank You!! I’m new to this. My hair was long thick full and beautiful natural curls. I chopped it 4 years ago. It grows so fast However it has so much breakage I have no length. Also thin. So I’ve decided- Wigs!! And I don’t care who k led!!
Hi Jill! I’m Jinn from Dallas TX, area. I look forward to learning from you. Just turned 60 and my hair doesn’t grow fast and am very anxious about looking natural. Thanks for the warm welcome! ❤️
Love this!!! Thank you for being yourself, you’re the type of channel I like to watch , so thanks for all your fun videos, I’ve learned some tips from you! Xo
When ever you share it’s helpful. Thank you again I will try this method.
Thank you. ;) I hope it helps you! Hugs~
Thank you for this video!
You’re such a beautiful soul ! Thank you for your amazing directions. Sending love and light
Thank you for all your great videos for all us newbies... You look like Trisha Yearwood with your beautiful wig on... so pretty!
