Oh boy am i glad i just watched this! I bought this wig today in the same color. Just looking to change up my look & add some volume & length and feel glamorous at 54. Your videos help with all the styling tips. Just a middle age woman wanting to add a little glamour in my life b/c my bio hair would never look like this!
I would never, never, never guess that you were wearing a wig. And what wonderful tips. I'm getting ready to order a Noriko. I'm 66 and looking at the sugared silver....I've gotten compliments on my natural color for years now and this looks the closest. I very much enjoyed listening to YOU. Thank you.
Excellent, excellent advice. I was ready to give up on my Jackson and watched your review. I managed to pull out some hair and make it look more natural. Played with some product. Thank you!
This is one of two wigs I've been considering. Still haven't taken the first-wig plunge. I really need to. I think this style is so flattering on you, Jill. Thank you for your great review and tips and tricks!
Hello Lisa E! Thank you very much! I hope you have found them helpful in some way! I would say...for you first wig to go with something less permatease 'y'. I say this, because it is going to take some time to get use to seeing yourself with 'hair'. I was so use to seeing myself with my thin, bodyless hair, that when I put a very natural looking wig on (zero permatease/ hand tied) I was SO taken back! This one is quite voluminous, and although it CAN be tamed with putting clips or headbands in...I think it may be a little overwhelming for a first time wig wearer. NOW, I could be totally wrong, and you may LOVE it for your first wig. Just wanted to throw that out there! LOL Thanks so much for watching, and have a great week! Good luck on your wig journey, you are going to love it. SO fun to have hair to play with!! Hugs~
I love watching your reviews! You are so "picky" and detailed and catch every aspect of comfort and quality like no one else I've watched. I'm glad I've found you at the beginning of your UA-cam journey. The Jackson looks great on you!
Very natural Jill, How cool is that? I think the back combing really does the trick. I have always pulled my hair out around non-lace fronts but I have never done the back combing trick. I will though, for now on because this steps seems to make a huge difference. Jackson is very slimming. I have always thought that this style makes every ones neck look longer. It is just an ultra flattering cut. Thanks for a wonderful review, sweetie! You are striking in Jackson.
Hello Jacey! I know! Who knew?! I am so excited about this whole new wig world I have discovered! So many more options without breaking the bank! Seriously...so excited! LOL I so agree about this style being flattering. I feel it truly will look pretty on everyone! Gotta be ok with the crown poof though...and I AM! haha! Have a great week, and thanks for watching! Hugs~
Beautiful! This is why I love basic caps! Or even better is a mono top with no lace. Renaus Noveau collection is perfect for this. I like Mariah- so comfortable and reasonably priced!
I just LOVE your reviews! I bought the Jackson because of this review! I also bought the Upstage because of your review on it! So, gotta lay off watching your reviews for a bit before I go broke! Yes, you're that good!😁
Well chickie, you hit paydirt with this one. I actually had this one about 8 years ago and loved it.. I couldnt even finish this video..I had go to CysterWigs and order another one!! getting it in sugarcane r..!!! it looks fantastic on you and I can tell you and am 65, and over 200 lbs. and this one is gorgeous on me too. it is one of my favorites of all time. thans for this review. you are breaking into a whole new area of good wigs at great prices and making you absolutely fabulous!!
Hello Gayle! Well, this is so awesome! Haha! I do feel like I have a whole new world of wig journeying ahead of me! LOL You go rock this one (again), and thanks so much for watching! Have a great week! Hugs~
I cant wait to get it. would love go out for lunch with you and both of us wearing these!! they are different colors...wonder if anyone would notice that we would be wearing the same cut??? its great to have a little fun again. I have been in a terrible state of ill health and depression for the last few years. with alot of crap going on. and now with all that is happening in the govt and the world I get upset knowing that it is the end of the world as we know it, for sure. anyway I will put on this beautiful wig and run out for lunch and a trip to the dollar store to see if they have any new fun stuff for my crafting projects. It will give me much pleasure and I will remember you!! I was the only one out of my group of friends that had the nerve to wear wigs and they all thought I was so cool for taking the plunge. many of them have passed on now and several have moved away, and I dont have any pals here now. I moved here to be near my daughter last august from Naples Fl. I left the few friends I have left there. but we keep in touch on facebook and phnoe. I will make new ones now that I am getting motivated to go out more and start meeting new people. like you, I am without my husband right now. he is still in Naples working for another year. its a 3 1/2 hour drive. we try to get together about every 8 weeks. we miss each other but we are holding up quite well..we are both very independent. I think he misses the dog more than me!! I hope you had a great Mothers day! Have a great day and keep up the fun for us. bye now.
This jackson is perfect without pulling your own hair out... i like just down no clips or anything makes style look weird...love the volume. Wig is perfect right out of box shake anf wear.
You look amazing!!! I LOVE your videos. When I was a young mom, I lost all of my hair due to stress. I wore wigs for a few years until it grew back, but it seriously looked "wiggy". Now that I'm in my late 40's and have colored my waist length hair for several years, it needs a break...and a cut..like an up to my ears cut. So I'm seriously thinking about jumping back into the wig pond. I stumbled across your videos while trying to figure out how to keep that "wiggy " look at bay. You nailed it. I looked up this wig online to purchase it and I have to tell you...it looks WAY better on you than it does on the models. Keep up the good work. I've learned so much from you already and this is just day one.
How did I miss this? I was on jury duty and came back and was unsubscribed to you :( I still haven't gotten a wig. I'm still nervous but I will get around to it. Thanks Jill. You're the only UA-camr that responds to our comments so promptly.
Oh Jill! Loved your sassy self in this video! Am exploring Noriko colors. Not sure yet as I am used to TB light blonde. Thinking about Creamy Toffee R or Mocha H
Girl you are Rocking that wig. I love love it. Looks great on you. I love the warmer color on you and I love the root color. Wow. Price is also great. Yeah I'm glad you said it for like a Petite. It looks so natural on you. I want to order me one. I know what to do with this type of wig. The lace front really scares me with the glue. I've never used glue of any kind. So thanks for sharing...❤️ Suzanne.
I just discovered you and I'm thrilled with your content. Your tips and tricks are amazing...I've not seen them anywhere else. What I love the most, though, are the many different styles you create on each wig. Thank you so much from a "newbie!" You are rocking my wig world. 😉👍💯
I really like the fact that this wig doesn’t have an extended nape. I have a short neck and when I put something on that has a collar it pushes the wig forward. Thanks for the great review.
This style and length look fantastic on you! Jackson was the second wig I ever bought and I love it too! I have two Norikos in Creamy Toffee R. It's a beautiful color.
Thanks Michele! I am so excited to have a whole new world to explore! LOL I do love this color. I wouldn't mind a rooted blonde that was even a bit lighter too! Thanks for watching, and have a wonderful week!
JIll, this is IT! You are stunning in this wig, if I were you I'd be wearing this one every day ❤️ what a great review, makes me want to go out and buy myself!
Wow Jill! I wish I would have seen this video of yours months back. It would have saved me about over $1,000 in wig styles and colors I did not like. First off let me say how absolutely amazing you look in this Noriko Jackson...not just the style but the color Creamy Toffee as well. Though honestly I havent seen you look anything but lovely in all the wigs you have demonstrated. I am a 49 year old who still has bio hair; tho extremely fine, course and unmanageable. I feel 79 with my bio hair and i know i can regain some self esteem back with this particular wig style. So I am very excited to purchase this one. I will probably order in the Champagne-R color since that is usually what I have my colorist foil color my hair to. And this Jackson style will be perfect for when I go to Florida in May on vacation; long but not too long and still age appropriate length for me. But I have to thank you not only for the most informative videos but your enthusiasm, especially with this particular video, is contagious! You made me feel like there is hope in a great wig that will make me feel youthful, feminine and confident again. Keep up the excellent work! Thank you kindly, Sandy Nolan :)
Agree 100%. Your technique looks even more realistic than any lacefront. I do the exact same thing and now never order lacefront wigs anymore. I love my Noriko Hailey, another great style. No one ever thinks it's a wig!
Hey there, Sandy! I have found that the closed caps just aren't working for me. they are much too warm...but, I have found that I can do without a lace front as long as I don't have that basic cap/closed cap construction. ;) I do love Jackson though...closed cap or not! LOL Thanks for watching!!
“YES”‼️ You look amazing... You go girl ❤️ I have Fibromyalgia & can’t do my hair. I’m watching your makeup video because I am FAIR & 67 & you look SOOO natural & I don’t want to look like a clown. “Hope you & hubby are over the flu‼️ Bless You
I love the look of the Jackson wig, bought it in Java Frost, loved the color then I popped it on my head and it was so tight! It was poofy and looked wiggy and it looks SO fantastic on every video I've ever seen people make with it on. I'm not sure what the issues is! I was so disappointed I sent it back. But there's part of me that wants to try again and just try to work with it or give it time to relax or something! I sent it back after trying it on twice.
I just got this, same color, and I feel the same exact way about it and had the same exact concerns. It is just gorgeous on. My own hair is much too dark to pull out to integrate, but I have found a way to swoop the front down that makes it work for me. The shaping is gorgeous and seems a little more sexy and formal than other similar styles. Great review, Jill. I just love my Jackson!
I absolutely luv this wig on you! It is just beautiful and so natural looking! I would luv to know what color to order in the brunette line? I recently lost some of my hair from radiation treatments ! I have blood cancer and have been watching ur videos and I have been learning so much from them... I now know that I need a permatease wig due to the fact that I've always had height to my bio hair! I don't look good with flat hairstyles at all! Thank u so much for your educational videos!
Hello! Well, thank you very much! I have been wearing her to see how it goes with the cap and comfort...she has been great! Will do a follow up eventually. ;) Thanks for watching!
Hi Jill. I love watching you, and you always look so beautiful in your wigs. I have the Jackson and am trying some of your styling ideas. I must be styling wig challenged. Because I can’t get mine to look like yours. When you pull your hair behind your ears, is the hair pinned first then the SqHairband? How do you get that little pouf in front on top of your head? I wish you could demonstrate what you do on someone else so we can see from all angles what you are doing. I get so inspired by you then big flop for me🤔. Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. 💝
I am a 49 yr. old woman with same coloring as you and just want to say I lOVED this video...came for the wig review. stayed for the gorgeous ev-er-eh-THANG. You go, sister Girl! I am so impressed and inspired by you! If you do makeup too I will def sub...keep it up!!
Hi Jill, forgive me for commenting on such an old video, but could you show how one might pull hair back for a small pony on a long wig like this? I like to wear hair like that with turtle necks in winter months. I just ordered Jackson , hasnt come yet. I plan to trim length a bit. I realize it wont be a real pony tail and dont want that ( we're same age) just something more then a nub. Lol
I just got my Jackson today & love her already! But, how or do you use Itstays with it? Maybe this will have to be one I try to pin to hold on place? This is only my 2nd wig, my first week wearing wigs & I've gotten all of my tips from YOU! Thank you so much!
Hi Kim! That's awesome! I have found that the It Stays doesn't work well with the closed cap material. You may try a wig grip. If it doesn't make it too snug....that may be an option. I am not fond of them, but I had to wear one with my Noriko wigs eventually because of the It stays not working well. Thank you for your kind words, and I am so happy I have helped you a little with your wig journey! Thanks so much for watching!
Go to a beauty supply store and buy some wig clips. Sew one inside the nape, and one inside above your forehead. They open and actually clip onto your hair. Very secure. I also cut bangs in all my Jacksons..
I can't seem to find a reference to the name of the wig you're wearing at the beginning of this video - it's gorgeous the way you wear it and I'd like to try it?
You look amazing in your wigs. You made that wig look so natural on you. There is another lady on UA-cam (won't mention her by name). She is absolutely stunning. She has that young Zsa Zsa Gabor look. Don't know if she has to wear wigs or just likes to wear wigs. But, they LOOK like wigs on her. Thanks for your videos!
I have several Noriko wigs & you are right, they run a bit small on some...I guess my head is a larger average. I LOVE the style & price of Noriko & they wear well. Looks great on you!
Well Jackson is no longer under $100. 😕. I ordered one anyway. She looks beautiful on you Jill. What dry shampoo are you currently using. Have a wonderful new year!!!
Hi Jill, Could you tell me if the Toffee R has much golden in it? I want to try this wig in a light color but need to stay away from Golden on my skintone. The style and the color looks so beautiful on you:)
Wow. That looks great on u Jill. Very believable. I have 2 Jacksons but NO biohair right now. But will try this when it grows out! Thanks for a great review yet again!!!
Thank you so much! Have a wonderful week ahead, and definitely give it a try. I have seen it worn with bangs cut for those without bio hair...and it looked amazing that way too! Hugs~
This is an awesome tip for everyone I really appreciate it me I always need bangs I'm a bang girls so I would just trim up some long bangs in it I don't need lace front or anything but this is a wonderful wonderful tip it looks beautiful great job you look beautiful with this wig I love Jackson too young for me though but it looks beautiful on you💕
Love your tips. I'd love to see you show it clipped back in a kind of an up-do; I've done that with the rooted wigs, so my own dark hair melds into the dark back hair of the wig; it looks okay, but would love to see you try it. Thanks.
Thank you! I have not tried putting her 'up'...but, have played with other fun accessories and styles. I'll keep experimenting to see if I can make an up do sort of thang happen. ;)
Love your videos! I've been wearing wigs or 'toppers' for about 8 years (my hair is very similar to yours) and I want to share a trick I've used....I was unable to comfortably wear ANY wig because they would pull up in the back, I think my head is flat....anyway, one day I decided to snip the elastic in the back (depending on the style I have cut the nape out!) I then secure the wig with a couple of clips. Now I can comfortably wear my wigs. This might not work for very short wigs. My point is, don't be afraid to 'customize' your wigs!
Thank you! What an interesting tip. Thanks so much for sharing this! I do think customizing is key...and new wig wearers such as myself, tend not to get that until later in our wig journey. I am finding that it takes lots of trial and error. Thanks again for sharing AND for watching!!
Hey Jill, I know you are not fond of bangs but I'd like to cut bangs into Jackson, is this doable? I just purchased one in Chocolate Swirl and am excited to get mine.
What other wigs can you do that with? I am one of those that hates lacefront because not only do they hurt, but the lace NEVER matches my olive skin. I have Tatum, which I love, and the bangs you don't need to do this. But I LOVE Georgia, she is kind of like this wig but has a monotop. I think Georgia is discontinued because I can't find her anywhere now. Do you know of any other wigs that have no lace front and a monotop? I don't like the lack of monotop.
I think it is so fun the way you are into your wigs. I watched your first videos when you were having trouble embracing your new styles. You always are so cute (beautiful) in your new hair,and you help ME with your enthusiasm. Even though my wig collection is embarrassingly large I have to have a Jackson in your creamy toffee R. My bio hair was soft black but I love my blondes. I’ve finally ventured into auburns and rich brunettes with beautiful highlights. You should try some of them. I have your fair skin and blue eyes. One wig I highly recommend trying is the Berlin. June bug turned me onto them. I wear mine like a pixie, and enjoy mine for bopping around the house. It has clips like toppers. It is cuter than the pictures. This is too long but you feel like a friend. You have written me some lovely notes. Thank you for the videos about the toppers. Jeanelle
Hey there, Jackie Sue! I am wearing her today as a matter of fact...back in a headband. I really love the fibers on this one...doesn't tangle and very manageable! Such a surprise for me. :) I think she runs a little smaller than any of the other 'average' sizes I do have. But, for me....that is a great thing. Comfortable...doesn't itch. Ear tabs aren't itching. At least any more than other wigs ...I mean, in general they can tend to itch from time to time. I find...the more secured the wig is, the less it will move slightly while it's on, and the less it will irritate and itch! This one does have a lot of permatease. So, be aware of that. For a first wig, it may take a little to get use to seeing yourself with this one on...but, wear headbands, clips and such to bring down the poof if it IS too much at first! Have fun on your wig journey! Thanks for watching, and hugs!
I think Jackson is a great wig and I think the reason you can make the hairline look so natural (with the addition of the back-combing) has something to do with the way Jackson, specifically, is made. I found that I stumbled on that fact when I bought a Jackson four years ago. I finally gave it away because I thought the color I got was just too flat. I think I will buy a new one in a more dimensional shade. It looks very good, rooted and that may be one of the keys. I also think it is a bit heavy and poufed, as you mention, but I think I can tamp down that permatease now, as I have more expertise. Thank you so much for doing this. Sold!
The cut is really pretty on you. You know what it makes me think of? "The Rachel" from Friends- not the initial version with an extreme amount of layering but the late 90's version when it had calmed down a bit. Very pretty and you just lit up when you had her on.
I loved your review of Jackson, I have been looking at her over the past week. The problem for me is I prefer bangs, and I'm not sure she would look good with bangs. You look beautiful in her though. I do have a question, as im in my first month of my wig journey: You mention LF Wigs - all my wigs so far are Noriko or GSW (well that I've tried). The LF itches soooo much on me. Do you by chance have any ideas on how to fix this? I only ask because you mention Noriko might itch and I have not found that to be the case as of yet. I adore all my Noriko wigs sooo much! Thanks for any suggestions or help :) Again, great video :)
Jill, Do u still wear your “Jackson” ? I’m 69 & HSP.. could I wear this on special occasions or should I save up to get Rachel Welch etc...your opinion please😉
Thank you! It was a surprise to me that I like it! Ha! I even wore it to work pulled back a bit so it looked professional. It was surprisingly comfortable! Thanks for watching! Hugs~
I really thought that was your REAL hair at first because I had just randomly clicked on your channel and did not see the beginning or read the caption! Wow!
I am so happy I watched your video Jill because I also bought this Jackson wig and will try this, do you have any tips on how to control the puffiness, I am not use to all this big rounded head it gives me.
Hi Madeline! (Oh, how I love your name!) YES...I get what you are saying about Jackson. I always ended up wearing a headband in her, or clipped it back. It helps to tame that poof and made it more realistic. Headbands look amazing in Jackson I think, because I still got the crown poof...and I love that look w/ headbands. ;)
Hi Carol! Aww...thank you! Hee hee! I hope you find it reasonably priced. That is what really excites me...that she is so reasonable! Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Hello Elaine James! Well, thank you very much! It has been quite a learning experience! I have quite literally thrown away (in the trash) two wigs thus far! Ha! I hope that doesn't happen again any time soon. ;) I appreciate your support, your sweet compliment, and for watching today! Have a great week ahead! hugs~
I have also trashed 2 wigs but seriously I have arched loads of wig videos but I find yourself and Nisha's videos the most inspirational and informative. Maybe because we began our wig journey at the same time? So glad I discovered your channel beautiful lady. Xo
I buy Noriko all the time You need to be careful of the wefting it can break easy so you need to grab the edges and not the wefting I have this wig but unfortunately it was too long for my age and now selling it on ebay. Beautiful on you ! Any suggestions on returning wigs in the area of cost saving? I am ok with a credit in the full amount but the return shipping cost is too much I have spent like 18.00 shipping return cost ! How do you ship back? cost ? Thanks
Hi Michele! I always put what I am wearing down the comment box for future reference . ;) I was wearing Soft & Subtle by Gabor. Really pretty one! Thanks so much for your compliment, and so happy you are enjoying my wig tutorials! Thanks for watching!
Ugh, I thought I looked for it. Have you ever tried to make a petite wig, larger from front hairline to nape? I know how to make a reg. size wig smaller. I'm not even seeing any video on Patty's Pearls and she shows you how to do just about everything. Thanks for your time.
No, I have not. I would think that would be tough. I don't think I have come across anything about it either. May be because I haven't really looked for that specifically.
Today it's $196 buckeroos. More than doubled in price. Love to know if it's itchy or uncomfortable. Maybe it's me but I search out your vids trying to find out how you feel about a particular wig after you've worn it for awhile. I hear you say you will give your opinion but I cannot find those opinions. Hi Jill, I really enjoy your vids. I've yet to take the plunge but one of these days. Why I'm hesitant is because of my widows peak...wish someone would address that. I don't want to wear bangs,
Ok this was done over a year ago, i can't find this wig for under 100 dollars now anywhere ..love the video,,,any suggestions where to get a good deal on this one?
Jill that wig looks incredible on you, l may just have to treat myself to my first wig! I really appreciate the way you create different looks with your wigs. You make them look very wearable and totally believable . Best wig reviewer out there 👌
Hello Debbie Hatton! WOW! This is a wonderful compliment! I feel I am learning and do not have anywhere near the knowledge or experience as some others out there, but hopefully my little chats inspire and show that a wig doesn't have to 'look' wiggy, and they can be fun and versatile! You should go for it, and beware, they are addicting! ;) Hee! Have a great week ahead, and thanks so much for your support and for watching! Hugs to you!
I wish we could have seen you put the wig on your head. It looks like you had something under the wig. It was white and the underside of the wig is black. The white showed when you pulled your bangs out. I'm a beginner and I need all the help I can get. I love, love, love your videos. I get so much valuable information. They way you explain every detail is so appreciated. I will most definitely get this very same wig. After seeing this I'm sure I will. Thank you again for all your help in the videos. I can't tell you how much it means to me!
Sorry I also meant to say I have 3 square head bands that look like glasses. When I seen them on you I thought oh yes so I can wear one of them on the longer one. So thanks for the tips. X
Hi Juals55! I love my SqHair Headbands! I wear them all the time with my wigs! If you need to purchase any others use my discount code: JILL I think you get $3.99 off your order. It does have an expiration...but, I am not sure when that is! Thanks for your kind compliment, and happy some of my little tips are helpful! Hugs to you, and as always, thanks for watching!
Well, thank you very much Kaylen! Maybe it looks longer on me because my neck is short. Haha! It's funny you say that though, because I wasn't expecting it to be this length either! I was thinking it was going to be shorter. I was pleasantly surprised! Thanks for watching!
I'm thinking of getting a wig ... first time ... since menopause my hair has fallen out... I've even had to cut it short :( just wondering where you purchased your wigs from?
I've researched and decided to go with Jackson. Same color! I'm excited.
Oh boy am i glad i just watched this! I bought this wig today in the same color. Just looking to change up my look & add some volume & length and feel glamorous at 54. Your videos help with all the styling tips. Just a middle age woman wanting to add a little glamour in my life b/c my bio hair would never look like this!
I would never, never, never guess that you were wearing a wig. And what wonderful tips. I'm getting ready to order a Noriko. I'm 66 and looking at the sugared silver....I've gotten compliments on my natural color for years now and this looks the closest. I very much enjoyed listening to YOU. Thank you.
Excellent, excellent advice. I was ready to give up on my Jackson and watched your review. I managed to pull out some hair and make it look more natural. Played with some product. Thank you!
This is one of two wigs I've been considering. Still haven't taken the first-wig plunge. I really need to. I think this style is so flattering on you, Jill. Thank you for your great review and tips and tricks!
Hello Lisa E! Thank you very much! I hope you have found them helpful in some way! I would say...for you first wig to go with something less permatease 'y'. I say this, because it is going to take some time to get use to seeing yourself with 'hair'. I was so use to seeing myself with my thin, bodyless hair, that when I put a very natural looking wig on (zero permatease/ hand tied) I was SO taken back! This one is quite voluminous, and although it CAN be tamed with putting clips or headbands in...I think it may be a little overwhelming for a first time wig wearer. NOW, I could be totally wrong, and you may LOVE it for your first wig. Just wanted to throw that out there! LOL Thanks so much for watching, and have a great week! Good luck on your wig journey, you are going to love it. SO fun to have hair to play with!! Hugs~
I love watching your reviews! You are so "picky" and detailed and catch every aspect of comfort and quality like no one else I've watched. I'm glad I've found you at the beginning of your UA-cam journey. The Jackson looks great on you!
Aww...thank you so much, Diane! I appreciate the feedback and encouragement! Thanks for watching, and the sweet compliment. Have a great week! hugs~
This is the best-looking wig on you I have ever seen you review. Beautiful!
Very natural Jill, How cool is that? I think the back combing really does the trick. I have always pulled my hair out around non-lace fronts but I have never done the back combing trick. I will though, for now on because this steps seems to make a huge difference. Jackson is very slimming. I have always thought that this style makes every ones neck look longer. It is just an ultra flattering cut. Thanks for a wonderful review, sweetie! You are striking in Jackson.
Hello Jacey! I know! Who knew?! I am so excited about this whole new wig world I have discovered! So many more options without breaking the bank! Seriously...so excited! LOL I so agree about this style being flattering. I feel it truly will look pretty on everyone! Gotta be ok with the crown poof though...and I AM! haha! Have a great week, and thanks for watching! Hugs~
WOW absolutely Stunning! I can't believe how natural you made it look! you are so pretty you could pull off any style ☺️
You are very sweet! ;)
J’aime bien cette perruque est t’il disponible??
Beautiful! This is why I love basic caps! Or even better is a mono top with no lace. Renaus Noveau collection is perfect for this. I like Mariah- so comfortable and reasonably priced!
I just LOVE your reviews! I bought the Jackson because of this review! I also bought the Upstage because of your review on it! So, gotta lay off watching your reviews for a bit before I go broke! Yes, you're that good!😁
Je comprend pas vraiment anglais juste français Svp

I cant wait to get it. would love go out for lunch with you and both of us wearing these!! they are different colors...wonder if anyone would notice that we would be wearing the same cut??? its great to have a little fun again. I have been in a terrible state of ill health and depression for the last few years. with alot of crap going on. and now with all that is happening in the govt and the world I get upset knowing that it is the end of the world as we know it, for sure. anyway I will put on this beautiful wig and run out for lunch and a trip to the dollar store to see if they have any new fun stuff for my crafting projects. It will give me much pleasure and I will remember you!! I was the only one out of my group of friends that had the nerve to wear wigs and they all thought I was so cool for taking the plunge. many of them have passed on now and several have moved away, and I dont have any pals here now. I moved here to be near my daughter last august from Naples Fl. I left the few friends I have left there. but we keep in touch on facebook and phnoe. I will make new ones now that I am getting motivated to go out more and start meeting new people. like you, I am without my husband right now. he is still in Naples working for another year. its a 3 1/2 hour drive. we try to get together about every 8 weeks. we miss each other but we are holding up quite well..we are both very independent. I think he misses the dog more than me!! I hope you had a great Mothers day! Have a great day and keep up the fun for us. bye now.
This jackson is perfect without pulling your own hair out... i like just down no clips or anything makes style look weird...love the volume. Wig is perfect right out of box shake anf wear.
You look amazing!!! I LOVE your videos. When I was a young mom, I lost all of my hair due to stress. I wore wigs for a few years until it grew back, but it seriously looked "wiggy". Now that I'm in my late 40's and have colored my waist length hair for several years, it needs a break...and a cut..like an up to my ears cut. So I'm seriously thinking about jumping back into the wig pond. I stumbled across your videos while trying to figure out how to keep that "wiggy " look at bay. You nailed it. I looked up this wig online to purchase it and I have to tell you...it looks WAY better on you than it does on the models. Keep up the good work. I've learned so much from you already and this is just day one.
You look maahvahlous in this one! Thanks for teaching us how to create a great illusion with the hairline. Thanks!
How did I miss this? I was on jury duty and came back and was unsubscribed to you :( I still haven't gotten a wig. I'm still nervous but I will get around to it. Thanks Jill. You're the only UA-camr that responds to our comments so promptly.
You look amazing in this wig ! Great review😊
Oh Jill! Loved your sassy self in this video! Am exploring Noriko colors. Not sure yet as I am used to TB light blonde. Thinking about Creamy Toffee R or Mocha H
Girl you are Rocking that wig. I love love it. Looks great on you. I love the warmer color on you and I love the root color. Wow. Price is also great. Yeah I'm glad you said it for like a Petite. It looks so natural on you. I want to order me one. I know what to do with this type of wig. The lace front really scares me with the glue. I've never used glue of any kind. So thanks for sharing...❤️ Suzanne.
I just discovered you and I'm thrilled with your content. Your tips and tricks are amazing...I've not seen them anywhere else. What I love the most, though, are the many different styles you create on each wig. Thank you so much from a "newbie!" You are rocking my wig world. 😉👍💯
I really like the fact that this wig doesn’t have an extended nape. I have a short neck and when I put something on that has a collar it pushes the wig forward. Thanks for the great review.
This style and length look fantastic on you! Jackson was the second wig I ever bought and I love it too! I have two Norikos in Creamy Toffee R. It's a beautiful color.
Thanks Michele! I am so excited to have a whole new world to explore! LOL I do love this color. I wouldn't mind a rooted blonde that was even a bit lighter too! Thanks for watching, and have a wonderful week!
Michele KT since it’s been a few years how had Jackson held up?? I am wanting to order this one
Thank you thank you, I have a noriko wig that has a strong wig line. This helped so much. I cant wait to work on mine.
Big hug, Angie
This is wonderful to hear! Thanks so much for letting me know! Hugs to you, Angie!
Jill great video, but do you have ideas on how to style her front if you have no hair to pull out? Thanks
I just bought my first non lace front from Hair Do and I love it too. That is a nice looking wig and you are right it looks so natural.
JIll, this is IT! You are stunning in this wig, if I were you I'd be wearing this one every day ❤️ what a great review, makes me want to go out and buy myself!
Thanks so much Janny! Thanks for watching too!
Wow Jill! I wish I would have seen this video of yours months back. It would have saved me about over $1,000 in wig styles and colors I did not like. First off let me say how absolutely amazing you look in this Noriko Jackson...not just the style but the color Creamy Toffee as well. Though honestly I havent seen you look anything but lovely in all the wigs you have demonstrated. I am a 49 year old who still has bio hair; tho extremely fine, course and unmanageable. I feel 79 with my bio hair and i know i can regain some self esteem back with this particular wig style. So I am very excited to purchase this one. I will probably order in the Champagne-R color since that is usually what I have my colorist foil color my hair to. And this Jackson style will be perfect for when I go to Florida in May on vacation; long but not too long and still age appropriate length for me. But I have to thank you not only for the most informative videos but your enthusiasm, especially with this particular video, is contagious! You made me feel like there is hope in a great wig that will make me feel youthful, feminine and confident again. Keep up the excellent work! Thank you kindly, Sandy Nolan :)
This is awesome!! I have to try this one & your right, 'Great for us more Mature' women. Thank you so much!!!
Agree 100%. Your technique looks even more realistic than any lacefront. I do the exact same thing and now never order lacefront wigs anymore. I love my Noriko Hailey, another great style. No one ever thinks it's a wig!
Hey there, Sandy! I have found that the closed caps just aren't working for me. they are much too warm...but, I have found that I can do without a lace front as long as I don't have that basic cap/closed cap construction. ;) I do love Jackson though...closed cap or not! LOL Thanks for watching!!
Looks great on you!
“YES”‼️ You look amazing... You go girl ❤️ I have Fibromyalgia & can’t do my hair. I’m watching your makeup video because I am FAIR & 67 & you look SOOO natural & I don’t want to look like a clown. “Hope you & hubby are over the flu‼️ Bless You
Jill you look fabulous! Thank you for all your tips xx
I just ordered my first topper & haven't even tried it yet & I already want to go & buy this wig!!!
I love the look of the Jackson wig, bought it in Java Frost, loved the color then I popped it on my head and it was so tight! It was poofy and looked wiggy and it looks SO fantastic on every video I've ever seen people make with it on. I'm not sure what the issues is! I was so disappointed I sent it back. But there's part of me that wants to try again and just try to work with it or give it time to relax or something! I sent it back after trying it on twice.
Thx so much, Jill! You wear a wig like a boss and you’ve encouraged me to do the same !!!
Awww...thank you, and what a great comment to read this morning! You rock, and it's clear you will rock those wigs! ;)
So happy I got to see this video! You are adorable! Mature! Lol, I say adorable! Thanks!
I just got this, same color, and I feel the same exact way about it and had the same exact concerns. It is just gorgeous on. My own hair is much too dark to pull out to integrate, but I have found a way to swoop the front down that makes it work for me. The shaping is gorgeous and seems a little more sexy and formal than other similar styles. Great review, Jill. I just love my Jackson!
Thank you Jill for heads up on sizing. That is very helpful info.
I have 3 of these beauties. She is my everyday girl. Even over my JR or RW. Wish they made a lace front in this exact style
I absolutely luv this wig on you! It is just beautiful and so natural looking! I would luv to know what color to order in the brunette line? I recently lost some of my hair from radiation treatments ! I have blood cancer and have been watching ur videos and I have been learning so much from them... I now know that I need a permatease wig due to the fact that I've always had height to my bio hair! I don't look good with flat hairstyles at all! Thank u so much for your educational videos!
AWESOME! You look so great !!! You look so YOUNG with this style! Love the tips!!
You are so beautiful. Thank you for your videos. They are sooo helpful. I'm new to wigs. I'm starting out slowly. 😊
Great Review! Jackson looks so beautiful on you! Thank you for sharing.
Hello! Well, thank you very much! I have been wearing her to see how it goes with the cap and comfort...she has been great! Will do a follow up eventually. ;) Thanks for watching!
Love it. Love the colour and love the layers at the bottom.
Hi Jill. I love watching you, and you always look so beautiful in your wigs. I have the Jackson and am trying some of your styling ideas. I must be styling wig challenged. Because I can’t get mine to look like yours. When you pull your hair behind your ears, is the hair pinned first then the SqHairband? How do you get that little pouf in front on top of your head? I wish you could demonstrate what you do on someone else so we can see from all angles what you are doing. I get so inspired by you then big flop for me🤔. Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. 💝
I am a 49 yr. old woman with same coloring as you and just want to say I lOVED this video...came for the wig review. stayed for the gorgeous ev-er-eh-THANG. You go, sister Girl! I am so impressed and inspired by you! If you do makeup too I will def sub...keep it up!!
This is very natural looking. Very pretty.
Hey Marla! Thanks very much! I wore this to work pulled back a bit, and felt great! Surprisingly comfortable too so far! Have a great week! hugs~
You look AMAZING in Jackson!!! And you are adorable!
Hi Jill, forgive me for commenting on such an old video, but could you show how one might pull hair back for a small pony on a long wig like this? I like to wear hair like that with turtle necks in winter months. I just ordered Jackson , hasnt come yet. I plan to trim length a bit. I realize it wont be a real pony tail and dont want that ( we're same age) just something more then a nub. Lol
I just got my Jackson today & love her already! But, how or do you use Itstays with it? Maybe this will have to be one I try to pin to hold on place? This is only my 2nd wig, my first week wearing wigs & I've gotten all of my tips from YOU! Thank you so much!
Hi Kim! That's awesome! I have found that the It Stays doesn't work well with the closed cap material. You may try a wig grip. If it doesn't make it too snug....that may be an option. I am not fond of them, but I had to wear one with my Noriko wigs eventually because of the It stays not working well. Thank you for your kind words, and I am so happy I have helped you a little with your wig journey! Thanks so much for watching!
Go to a beauty supply store and buy some wig clips. Sew one inside the nape, and one inside above your forehead. They open and actually clip onto your hair. Very secure. I also cut bangs in all my Jacksons..
I can't seem to find a reference to the name of the wig you're wearing at the beginning of this video - it's gorgeous the way you wear it and I'd like to try it?
You look amazing in your wigs. You made that wig look so natural on you. There is another lady on UA-cam (won't mention her by name). She is absolutely stunning. She has that young Zsa Zsa Gabor look. Don't know if she has to wear wigs or just likes to wear wigs. But, they LOOK like wigs on her. Thanks for your videos!
I have several Noriko wigs & you are right, they run a bit small on some...I guess my head is a larger average. I LOVE the style & price of Noriko & they wear well. Looks great on you!
Hi Jan! Thanks, and good to know they wear well!!
Love the review on Jackson.. AND .. your eye makeup ... makes your eyes just POP... can you share what you did on your eye makeup please
That is the best color, length, and style of ALL I've seen on you!!!...Too bad it doesn't come in a larger size...thanks!
Well Jackson is no longer under $100. 😕. I ordered one anyway. She looks beautiful on you Jill. What dry shampoo are you currently using. Have a wonderful new year!!!
Lol I love it 🤩💕GORGEOUS
Hi Jill, Could you tell me if the Toffee R has much golden in it? I want to try this wig in a light color but need to stay away from Golden on my skintone. The style and the color looks so beautiful on you:)
You are amazing! I am new to wigs and you have been so helpful. Thank you!
Wow. That looks great on u Jill. Very believable. I have 2 Jacksons but NO biohair right now. But will try this when it grows out! Thanks for a great review yet again!!!
Thank you so much! Have a wonderful week ahead, and definitely give it a try. I have seen it worn with bangs cut for those without bio hair...and it looked amazing that way too! Hugs~
You look beautiful in that wig. Completely natural! Thanks for the tips.
Thank you, Nancy! I appreciate you watching.... Have a great week!
This is an awesome tip for everyone I really appreciate it me I always need bangs I'm a bang girls so I would just trim up some long bangs in it I don't need lace front or anything but this is a wonderful wonderful tip it looks beautiful great job you look beautiful with this wig I love Jackson too young for me though but it looks beautiful on you💕
Love your tips. I'd love to see you show it clipped back in a kind of an up-do; I've done that with the rooted wigs, so my own dark hair melds into the dark back hair of the wig; it looks okay, but would love to see you try it. Thanks.
Thank you! I have not tried putting her 'up'...but, have played with other fun accessories and styles. I'll keep experimenting to see if I can make an up do sort of thang happen. ;)
Love your videos! I've been wearing wigs or 'toppers' for about 8 years (my hair is very similar to yours) and I want to share a trick I've used....I was unable to comfortably wear ANY wig because they would pull up in the back, I think my head is flat....anyway, one day I decided to snip the elastic in the back (depending on the style I have cut the nape out!) I then secure the wig with a couple of clips. Now I can comfortably wear my wigs. This might not work for very short wigs.
My point is, don't be afraid to 'customize' your wigs!
Thank you! What an interesting tip. Thanks so much for sharing this! I do think customizing is key...and new wig wearers such as myself, tend not to get that until later in our wig journey. I am finding that it takes lots of trial and error. Thanks again for sharing AND for watching!!
Hey Jill, I know you are not fond of bangs but I'd like to cut bangs into Jackson, is this doable? I just purchased one in Chocolate Swirl and am excited to get mine.
You look so great in this style
You look like 10 or 15 years younger, I swear. I love it.
What other wigs can you do that with? I am one of those that hates lacefront because not only do they hurt, but the lace NEVER matches my olive skin. I have Tatum, which I love, and the bangs you don't need to do this. But I LOVE Georgia, she is kind of like this wig but has a monotop. I think Georgia is discontinued because I can't find her anywhere now. Do you know of any other wigs that have no lace front and a monotop? I don't like the lack of monotop.
I think it is so fun the way you are into your wigs. I watched your first videos when you were having trouble embracing your new styles. You always are so cute (beautiful) in your new hair,and you help ME with your enthusiasm. Even though my wig collection is embarrassingly large I have to have a Jackson in your creamy toffee R. My bio hair was soft black but I love my blondes. I’ve finally ventured into auburns and rich brunettes with beautiful highlights. You should try some of them. I have your fair skin and blue eyes. One wig I highly recommend trying is the Berlin. June bug turned me onto them. I wear mine like a pixie, and enjoy mine for bopping around the house. It has clips like toppers. It is cuter than the pictures. This is too long but you feel like a friend. You have written me some lovely notes. Thank you for the videos about the toppers. Jeanelle
Jeanelle Ray aww....thank you! Such a sweet comment to read today. I appreciate you watching!
Jeanelle Ray I also appreciate you sharing! I will take a gander at Berlin!
LOVE!!! This may just be the wig I break down and buy for my "first"!! Any updates on the comfort level?
Hey there, Jackie Sue! I am wearing her today as a matter of fact...back in a headband. I really love the fibers on this one...doesn't tangle and very manageable! Such a surprise for me. :) I think she runs a little smaller than any of the other 'average' sizes I do have. But, for me....that is a great thing. Comfortable...doesn't itch. Ear tabs aren't itching. At least any more than other wigs ...I mean, in general they can tend to itch from time to time. I find...the more secured the wig is, the less it will move slightly while it's on, and the less it will irritate and itch! This one does have a lot of permatease. So, be aware of that. For a first wig, it may take a little to get use to seeing yourself with this one on...but, wear headbands, clips and such to bring down the poof if it IS too much at first! Have fun on your wig journey! Thanks for watching, and hugs!
I think Jackson is a great wig and I think the reason you can make the hairline look so natural (with the addition of the back-combing) has something to do with the way Jackson, specifically, is made. I found that I stumbled on that fact when I bought a Jackson four years ago. I finally gave it away because I thought the color I got was just too flat. I think I will buy a new one in a more dimensional shade. It looks very good, rooted and that may be one of the keys. I also think it is a bit heavy and poufed, as you mention, but I think I can tamp down that permatease now, as I have more expertise. Thank you so much for doing this. Sold!
The cut is really pretty on you. You know what it makes me think of? "The Rachel" from Friends- not the initial version with an extreme amount of layering but the late 90's version when it had calmed down a bit. Very pretty and you just lit up when you had her on.
I loved your review of Jackson, I have been looking at her over the past week. The problem for me is I prefer bangs, and I'm not sure she would look good with bangs. You look beautiful in her though.
I do have a question, as im in my first month of my wig journey: You mention LF Wigs - all my wigs so far are Noriko or GSW (well that I've tried). The LF itches soooo much on me. Do you by chance have any ideas on how to fix this? I only ask because you mention Noriko might itch and I have not found that to be the case as of yet. I adore all my Noriko wigs sooo much! Thanks for any suggestions or help :)
Again, great video :)
Jill, Do u still wear your “Jackson” ? I’m 69 & HSP.. could I wear this on special occasions or should I save up to get Rachel Welch etc...your opinion please😉
That cut and style looks fantastic on you!
Thank you! It was a surprise to me that I like it! Ha! I even wore it to work pulled back a bit so it looked professional. It was surprisingly comfortable! Thanks for watching! Hugs~
Awesome Video very pretty thank you for tips . I love it
I really thought that was your REAL hair at first because I had just randomly clicked on your channel and did not see the beginning or read the caption! Wow!
That's awesome! Hee hee! AND...WELCOME to my channel! ;)
Girl, this wig looks gorgeous on you!! Love the color also. I have a large head and wish this came in a large ☹️
Thank you! Noriko wig caps DEFINITELY run on the smaller side!
Also BTW thanks for showing how to add the tiny Wispies I am gona try this on my Jackson too:)
I'm not sure which is more gorgeous, you or this wig! But I'm going with you. Thank you so much for this wonderful review! :)
Oh my lord...that is the sweetest thing to say! Thanks so much for watching, and for posting this kind, sweet comment! Hugs~
Well I luv it. The wig looks fantastic but I live in Australia and they won’t ship here. So much for getting excited about this wig
I am so happy I watched your video Jill because I also bought this Jackson wig and will try this, do you have any tips on how to control the puffiness, I am not use to all this big rounded head it gives me.
Hi Madeline! (Oh, how I love your name!) YES...I get what you are saying about Jackson. I always ended up wearing a headband in her, or clipped it back. It helps to tame that poof and made it more realistic. Headbands look amazing in Jackson I think, because I still got the crown poof...and I love that look w/ headbands. ;)
Gorgeous wig and it looks great and natural on you!
btw... I'm sending my Jackson back. I'd love to have one in the color you're wearing!
Oo by the way just pull a hair line around from around the line of the hair line and cut just like baby hair,s and back comb and it works great
I so appreciate you and your videos 😊
love love love this... the wig is great, but your enthusiasm sells it to me.. gonna see what it costs over here! xxx
Hi Carol! Aww...thank you! Hee hee! I hope you find it reasonably priced. That is what really excites me...that she is so reasonable! Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Brilliant styling tips Jill, going to try this wth my Jackson. You are quickly becoming quite the wig expert.
Hello Elaine James! Well, thank you very much! It has been quite a learning experience! I have quite literally thrown away (in the trash) two wigs thus far! Ha! I hope that doesn't happen again any time soon. ;) I appreciate your support, your sweet compliment, and for watching today! Have a great week ahead! hugs~
I have also trashed 2 wigs but seriously I have arched loads of wig videos but I find yourself and Nisha's videos the most inspirational and informative. Maybe because we began our wig journey at the same time? So glad I discovered your channel beautiful lady. Xo
Thank you so much, Elaine! I sure appreciate your support, and your sweet post. Hugs!
I buy Noriko all the time You need to be careful of the wefting it can break easy so you need to grab the edges and not the wefting I have this wig but unfortunately it was too long for my age and now selling it on ebay. Beautiful on you ! Any suggestions on returning wigs in the area of cost saving? I am ok with a credit in the full amount but the return shipping cost is too much I have spent like 18.00 shipping return cost ! How do you ship back? cost ? Thanks
What wig are you wearing before you changed it to Jackson. I love your videos . I'm hooked watching your wig tips! Thank You.
Hi Michele! I always put what I am wearing down the comment box for future reference . ;) I was wearing Soft & Subtle by Gabor. Really pretty one! Thanks so much for your compliment, and so happy you are enjoying my wig tutorials! Thanks for watching!
Ugh, I thought I looked for it. Have you ever tried to make a petite wig, larger from front hairline to nape? I know how to make a reg. size wig smaller. I'm not even seeing any video on Patty's Pearls and she shows you how to do just about everything. Thanks for your time.
No, I have not. I would think that would be tough. I don't think I have come across anything about it either. May be because I haven't really looked for that specifically.
Thank you.
Today it's $196 buckeroos. More than doubled in price. Love to know if it's itchy or uncomfortable. Maybe it's me but I search out your vids trying to find out how you feel about a particular wig after you've worn it for awhile. I hear you say you will give your opinion but I cannot find those opinions. Hi Jill, I really enjoy your vids. I've yet to take the plunge but one of these days. Why I'm hesitant is because of my widows peak...wish someone would address that. I don't want to wear bangs,
Ok this was done over a year ago, i can't find this wig for under 100 dollars now anywhere ..love the video,,,any suggestions where to get a good deal on this one?
boe1956 Ace Wigs $112
Jill that wig looks incredible on you, l may just have to treat myself to my first wig! I really appreciate the way you create different looks with your wigs. You make them look very wearable and totally believable . Best wig reviewer out there 👌
Hello Debbie Hatton! WOW! This is a wonderful compliment! I feel I am learning and do not have anywhere near the knowledge or experience as some others out there, but hopefully my little chats inspire and show that a wig doesn't have to 'look' wiggy, and they can be fun and versatile! You should go for it, and beware, they are addicting! ;) Hee! Have a great week ahead, and thanks so much for your support and for watching! Hugs to you!
it does not look like the mechanical teasing or permatease, is excessive in this wig. Looks fantastic.
I wish we could have seen you put the wig on your head. It looks like you had something under the wig. It was white and the underside of the wig is black. The white showed when you pulled your bangs out. I'm a beginner and I need all the help I can get. I love, love, love your videos. I get so much valuable information. They way you explain every detail is so appreciated. I will most definitely get this very same wig. After seeing this I'm sure I will. Thank you again for all your help in the videos. I can't tell you how much it means to me!
Excellent review. Thank you
Sorry I also meant to say I have 3 square head bands that look like glasses. When I seen them on you I thought oh yes so I can wear one of them on the longer one. So thanks for the tips. X
Hi Juals55! I love my SqHair Headbands! I wear them all the time with my wigs! If you need to purchase any others use my discount code: JILL I think you get $3.99 off your order. It does have an expiration...but, I am not sure when that is! Thanks for your kind compliment, and happy some of my little tips are helpful! Hugs to you, and as always, thanks for watching!
I just bought another one yesterday, still a very beautiful wig and it's perfect on you!
You look gorgeous! It looks longer on you than I've seen on websites. Thanks for the videos!
Well, thank you very much Kaylen! Maybe it looks longer on me because my neck is short. Haha! It's funny you say that though, because I wasn't expecting it to be this length either! I was thinking it was going to be shorter. I was pleasantly surprised! Thanks for watching!
I'm thinking of getting a wig ... first time ... since menopause my hair has fallen out... I've even had to cut it short :( just wondering where you purchased your wigs from?
I love the review. Thanks so much for all the tips! Can't wait for next Sunday session. And I'm going to check out the above wig.
Hey Geraldine! Thank you! Have a great week! See you Sunday! ;)
