I love her short haircut, too. On some people really short hair is glamorous, that's true for Marlene. I would probably not wear wigs very much if my hair looked so good. 😃
Thank you! I'm finding I don't wear my wigs as often. I'd put on a wig just to go to the grocery store or even the mailbox. Now, I just go without one, but I still love my wigs. xoxo
Thank you so much, Mary! It really is a beautiful style! Hmmm, my bottle of magic: great skincare, some Botox on my elevens, the magic of makeup and the power of a beautiful wig. xoxo
Marlene, so nice to see you... I have been subscribed to your channel from way back... I just wanted to pop in because since your retirement and which to review the wigs this wig of a lot of them looks amazing on you! It really looks like your own hair totally gorgeous on you I just wanted to tell you! Have a great week! 👍👍💜💜
I just received my Counter Culture from BelleTress in Brown Sugar Sweet Cream & have the same issue with the lace not laying down on the right side. Definitely will have to glue my on to be able to wear it
I am the same Marlene, l prefer less on top. Nothing screams WIG more than heaps of pouff on top on a lot of wigs, not all though. In saying that, this is a beautiful piece. The layers are so flattering and the color is wow on you. In terms of hair placement, this is a very balanced and realistic style.❤
I am in your age range also. I will be 64 in two months and my bio hair is long approximately 17 inches, however I wish they would make more wigs in the 14 to 16 in range just a little shorter that were straight or had only a slight wave to them. I got my Kushikamana 18 a couple days ago and I absolutely love it, but boy the front hairline/part is really wonky and I’ve never steamed a wig, but I think I’m gonna have to do this one -so I’m a little afraid.😢
Hi CC, I agree, some shorter ones would be perfect. I'm sorry to hear about your Kushi. I have 2 and love them. Steaming isn't difficult. Just be careful with your lace front and keep the steamer moving. Clip in back and allow the fibers to cool. You can also use a curling iron at no more than 320 degrees. Place the curling iron with the fibers pulled back, hold for no more than 3 seconds, then place your hand to hold it in place. Do this a couple of times, and the fibers will be trained back. I hope this helps. xoxo
Really nice style! I don't like the big hair look and the density on Bespoke is just about perfect. I'm glad to see the wig companies are still making medium and long styles. The color is amazingly realistic. I loved the look with the headband and I generally wear medium to long hair wigs down because the ones I have are so pretty. In warm weather I go with a topper.
I'm new to the wig world. To me the Belle Tress lace front looks like a line across your forehead verses Tressallure lace front wigs. Am I wrong? I really love Bespoke style but worried about that hairline looking fake. I bit the bullet and purchased a Tressallure wig to start, if ya'll have experience between the 2 brands, your input would be appreciated!
It is just beautiful on you Marlene! I have Dolce & Dolce 18 in Mocha with Cream and love it. It is just like the hair I had as a teenager and into my late 30s. Eighteen inches is the sweet spot for me so I thought Bespoke would be a few inches too long and I did not pre-order it. But after seeing how lovely it is on you, I might have to rethink that decision! You should definitely keep this one -- gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!
Hi Kelly, thank you so much! I''ll be keeping this one for sure. I think it's one that wowed me from the start. I didn't order Dolce & Dolce and now wish I had... I may need to since it's a bit shorter. xoxo
Marlene u can wear many wigs but this one is so you and gorgeous! I love longer hair now and I'm 79! I don't go by age either ! I think I could pull this color off bc of the brown in there! Love this and u look so good no bangs ! Hugs Babs ❤️❤️
Hi Barb, thank you so much. I do love this one. I think you can pull off this color. It's not too far away from Nut Multi. I don't wear bangs very often. My forehead is only 2.5" I'll review them if I need to, but I think I have only one (Jones). Love you, my friend! xoxo
Oh wow this looks stunning on you. I thought I miss heard, I say you definitely look at least 10 year's younger. I have peppermint (hand tied cap) in the same colour, but think I may struggle with a 22.5in circumference with Bespoke.
I love this wig and it looks beautiful on you! Is there maybe a similar model from Belle Tress with also lower density and layers but a little bit shorter?
Hi Inge, thank you so much! There are a few styles you may want to consider that are shorter with less density: Dalgona 16, Caliente, Peppermint. The nice thing with BT is that they're heat friendly so you can add some waves or straightened one that has too much curl for you. Most BT have less density than this one. xoxo Marlene
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio Thank you. I've ordered the Peppermint because it seems to be closest to my natural hair when it would be healthy... A good one to try if wigs is something for me I think... My dream for later would be the Sugar Rush from Belle Tress. It looks amazing and if I'm right I think it is a little less dense then Bespoke?
I agree with you…I want low profile/density especially on top and okay with normal density everywhere else. I have a round face and feel that a “helmet shape” which usually is a higher density/permatease wig and it’s really unflattering, personally speaking. I’m hoping to find a 18”piece (that is where I’m most comfortable) but may go longer if needed. If you had to choose between Bespoke or Locklan which one is the most realistic style/density to you? And is there any 18” style (other than the one you mentioned in this video starts with a K that you feel you love as well. Have you tried the 18” Peerless? Oh, that looks interesting, huh? Thanks for all you do! -Carol
Hi Carol, thank you for stopping by! I love Bespoke, but it does have a higher density than Locklan. Locklan also has a full mono top while Bespoke has a left part. It really comes down to your preference. If you prefer lower density vs higher, straight synthetic vs heat friendly, and a full mono vs a left part. The other that I love is Kushikamana. It's lower density than Bespoke and absolutely gorgeous. I have it in a few colors. If you want a closer look, I have a review on it. xoxo
Hi Marlene! 1st time on ure channel! Great video, really detailed!! Finally, a style EXACTLY like mine used to look like before menopause and my meds because of my spinal cord injury/paralysis 😢, however, sadly I am a right-part (that wording always turns me around because my hair goes to the left lol) girl so my question is, with this being a left-part, like most wigs I am seeing are, can Bespoke part AT ALL to the left? I know at the end you flip it over, BUT does it look natural still if I keep it on that side? Actually, can most Belle Tress be parted opposite (to the left) because they are my favorite brand, so far! Unless there is a sister to Bespoke, even from another company that has a full mono top? Sorry for the long post & all of the questions, I am a newbie, and don't own a wig yet so, I am scared to buy the wrong wig because they are really expensive for my budget, but I really need to buy one for my mental health and to make it easier on my mom & sis doing my hair. Thank you so much! Stacie in the Youngstown, Ohio area 💕
Hi Stacie, thank you so much for visiting. Unfortunately, Bespoke cannot be parted to the left and still have the illusion of scalp. Your best bet is going with a full mono top. BT recently released Lauren which is similar to Bespoke but Lauren has a hand-tied cap and full mono top allowing multi-directional parting. xoxo Marlene
Why do we get that lace lifting ? I have that with a brand new wavy day…are they defects with too much lace…the cap not fitting as it should? I’ve always wondered
Hi Jenn, I don't think it has to do with the lace but rather the fit. The first thing I do is tighten the adjusters and see if that makes it better. If it doesn't, then I loosen them. What has worked the best for me is making sure the wig fits comfortably with a wig grip and using It Stays to prevent the lace from lifting. Nevertheless, I feel this shouldn't happen. xoxo
Hi Jen, Bespoke is longer by about 5 inches than Scene Stealer and have more layering especially framing the face. Scene Stealer also has a full mono top and this one has a side part. xoxo
@@MarlenesWigChatStudio Thanks for replying, Marlene! It looks really similar to me but those are definitely some significant differences. Thanks again for your help! 😃👍💜💙💚
Yes, it's available. Here's a link for you, but I suggest you contact customer service to make sure the color you want is in stock. I review for Shirley's and highly recommend her. shirleyswigshoppe.com/products/bespoke-wig-by-belle-tress-wigs?_pos=2&_psq=bespoke&_ss=e&_v=1.0
Thank you so much for letting me know. I had never heard this before and thought it was a made-up name Belle Tress dreamed up. I should have known better! xoxo

Wow! I think this is a signature piece for you Marlene, perfect!!! xoxo
