How can anyone downvote this woman's videos? She's totally adorable! I'm new to wigs and her videos have been so helpful. And they're light and easy to watch. Thank you, Taz.
When I first started to wear wigs my husband would give me a name for who I was depending on which wig I wore. He would make a little game of asking me, "which one of my girlfriends am I taking out tonight?" It's been a lot of fun and I've noticed that my personality is a little different with each one, as is my self image.
I Absolutely love the way your husband's as sweet as mine!!We are Blessed! All the Beautiful Ladies. Are looking Fabulous in all their wig studio 1 Styles!🤩
Hearing your story of the first time you wore a wig to work was like I was watching a movie about my own life. Everything you said was exactly everything that I have felt! Seeing how beautiful you look gives me the confidence I need to embrace wearing wigs. Thank you so much! You're the best!☺️
Oh, Taz, you are simply the best support for embracing wearing wigs...I really compliment you on owning your new look each day. You have given so much content and encouragement through your reviews. This today was so fascinating. Keep them coming. I always find your tips on care useful. And last but not least thank you for your enthusiasm and adventurous spirit in finding new ways to style your wigs and accessorize them. Thank you ever so much for your spirit, your ideas and your support. Bless you. 🦋
Hi Taz. Watching this for the first time. I agree with that feeling when you put the very first wig on. What a great feeling. I feel like my old self again. Thanks ! ❤
I think you look beautiful in all the wigs you wear and upload to your videos. I love the many options of styling that you've giving me I feel more confident wearing mines. You've giving me my social life back. I thank you. Keep making videos for us all. Love and blessings to you.
I absolutely love your wig reviews, and they all look stunning on you! On a side note, I also have an intense fear of running out of things, and I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for helping me not feel alone.
I'm new to wigs but have done countless hours of research. You are by far my fav to watch. Especially this video when you shared how emotional the "life change" can feel. I hope you know how deeply those words speak to some of us. Thank you so much.
I love you !! My sister showed me your channel !! You are Awesome!! Everything you said is so ME !!! Omg !! All the way to the part about not wanting to use it up so you just set it aside cuz you’re worried about running out !!! You have touched me in a way I cannot even explain ! Thank you sooooo much for this !!! I can’t believe someone else feels EXACTLY like I do ! I love all of these wigs and Jon Renau smart lace and these are my absolute fav ! I love how you talked about going to work and telling everyone ... it’s like eliminating the elephant in the room cuz people may notice , but they never say anything. You look BEAUTIFUL in all of these wigs . They look natural on you , you have Beautiful eyes the hair really looks good with your eyes ! Thank you for this review . It helps me a lot cuz I been wearing wigs for years now and still didn’t know some of the things you talked about .. I appreciate you ♥️
I am so glad I found this video from Taz, i've been coveting Jon Renau's wigs (i'm a newbie to wigs) watching this has give me the confidence to purchase. Thanks. You look beautiful in them all 😁
Thanks Taz for getting back to me. I think I am going with a topper either Jon reneau top crown or playmate straight. I talked with customer service desk at cyster wigs. Very, very helpful. Thanks again. Carol
There's nothing I can say here that hasn't already been said. I just appreciate you so much!!! You do such a fantastic job of reviewing and showing the world how fun and wonderful wig wearing can be!!
Hi Taz, This was a wonderful video. I have heard other say about the fabric softener yet I was unsure. Now that you said you have done this I am going to try this and the silicone also. Thank you for always giving us wig wearer's so much good information. I agree with you about the cost of these (all ) wigs yet we are worth it for are state of mind I believe. I use to get my hair done every 4 weeks cut color highlights and low lights ( not always all at the same time) and my cost was around $150 to $180. So when I get told Wow! those wigs are costly, I just say what do you pay to get your hair done they then see it's really about the same. I can get 6 months out of a wig because I do take care of them. So I really am saving money even though I do buy the wigs. I am never without some new one's as backups. I am always finding I do this with everything. I just want to Thank you so very much because I truly do believe you have given me so much just buy watching your amazing video's on these beautiful wigs. Your are a beautiful lady. God Bless 💕
Patty Liort Hi Patty! Thanks so much for watching! It was a lot of fun to make.. and I was a little chatty today as you can tell.. like you all were right there with me just having a fun time together. Much love, TAZ XOXO
Patty Liort when you say you get about 6 months out of a wig Do you mean that you only get 6 months wear out of them? Is 6 months their 'lifespan'? ..sorry I'm a complete novice when it comes to wigs and hairpieces I'm trying to learn more 😀 Thanks in advance for any reply 😊

Thank you ,Taz, for your thorough reviews, I love that you give us so much info and love the comparisons. It is so helpful when making a decision. Also love seeing the longer styles!
I feel EXACTLY the way you do it’s spooky. Love you Taz! You have given me so much practical knowledge. I had such bad wigs in the early days when I look at pictures is YUCK!!
I so love your video's, I purchased 2 wigs, one from Jon Renau & Louis Ferre, I like Jon s much better because of the lace front, the other has no lace front but I do like the straight hair, Please don't stop making videos
I have Rachel and absolutely love this. Style and length is what I had before I lost most of my hair. The cap is amazing. No itch at all for me. Wish I could buy more in a ton of different colors. Even though my bio hair is dark brown, I want to get blondes. I tried Sarah and absolutely loved this one as well. Just could not purchase 2 at the time.
Hi Taz. I was just lying in the bath watching your latest video and after it finished this one popped up and I just let it play. I know things have changed a lot since this was made but so much of what you say about your wig journey is just so valuable and rings so true I couldn't help thinking it would be good if you said it all again for people coming new to your channel. PS I'm now inspired to go get another Ignite. It was my very first purchase before I really knew what I was doing - time to give it another shot.
How thoughtful of you to write these comments! I look back and feel so blessed at my journey and ability to share with all you.. what an honor it is for me! Love ya! XOXO
You look so nice in every wig you put on! You so lucky! I lost some hair from covid and then a close death. Ordered some wigs,,,but feel self- conscious, , ,,I don't want my neighbors to even see me! Let alone go run errands or go to grocery store with different hair! I love what you talk about-and listen- and wish I felt more secure! I think finding the right style and color means alot! Don't want it to look too wiggy! Some people can't afford expensive wigs !!
Love all you're videos. You're positive attitude is so helpful to all of us. I just wore a wig in front of my family at my niece's bridal shower. I kept thinking to myself what you said "It's all about what's under the wig." I was a nervous wreck for nothing. I'm currently looking at a wig to wear to my niece's wedding in September. I want to go blond. Would I look good in Heidi? I'm looking for a blond with a dark root. Please help me with a suggestion. I completely trust your suggestions. Thank you Taz, you're an amazing rare woman. You honestly care about all of our struggles and build our confidence. Have a beautiful blessed day. 🌹🥀
Hello and congrats! You are on your way to great joy and freedom in your wig wearing! I think JR Heidi is a universally flattering style. Heidi has a lot of volume and permatease, however, so keep that in mind. Her sister JR Rachel is handtied and has no permatease (on the piece that I have).. it gives a more subtle volume than Heidi. I hope this helps! XOXO
I know this is long after you created this video but I want to thank you for your videos. I have watched many of them over and over. You help me have confidence and see what styles are possible, I began wearing wigs in the fall of 18 and have no plans of turning back. I am learning. My bio hair is sparse and unhealthy from health and medication issues. My favorite so far is Eve by Jon Renau. I love the HD fibers. Thanks again.
You're so beautiful no matter which wig you're wearing. I will say, in the Julianne and the Rachel you look ten years younger! I think the beach curls and the slight roots look amazing on you. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
You really look good in all the wigs you reviewed. I have watched a lot of videos , so far, you give detailed information that's very helpful. I purchased my first Wig Zara petite and I was totally disappointed. It's too small for my head and I only wore her once. I want to use wigs to take a break from coloring my hair and I would like a change in my look. I am thinking of Rachel by Jon Renau , for my second wig, however , I have straight hair and a little hesitant on Rachel, since she has curly hair, which I always wanted and don't want to waste money again if it doesn't suit me.
Love your wigs that you have.. I am going to share your site with my daughter.. her hair was so bad.. she bought a wig.. and the people are tellling her she has to glue it down. I told her NO.. Hopefully she will listen to you.
I also have a need for back ups, some may call it hoarding but I like the term back up. Thanks for all the work you put into making videos for us to enjoy.
Hi Angel. I am very open about wearing wigs. I don’t mind if everyone knows. This gives me the freedom to change my style from day to day and make it fun! Modern wigs are very realistic and convincing. But you’ll have to get your mind past the the anxiety, shame or guilt you may be feeling. Experiment with one around the house for awhile until you’re comfortable in it and then gradually come out in public.. hope this helps! XOXO
TAZSWIGCLOSET thank you so much for answering me. I will do just that. You mentioned cysterwigs...i just want one that is realistic and won't cost me too much. I am a single mom that ended up divorced and on disability due to 3 failed spinal surgeries. So I am on a limited income. I would love to be able to reduce my anxiety and agoraphobia so I can get back to a normal life. If you can let me know the best type and what I need to be looking for I would be forever grateful.
Hey Taz! I've been experiencing awful hair loss ever since I turned 18. I am now 38 and I use hair clip-ons and other products that cover the bald spots etc. It has gotten to a point where it looks terrible and unnatural. I have been devastated for a looking time. I literally wanted to die because of that. I know a lot of people will say that this isn't enough a reason to feel this way and that there are way worst things one can experience, and I agree. But this has literally been a terrible ordeal for me, and I have fallen into severe depression ever since my late teens because of it. I have lost my social life, I have withdrawn from everything and everyone. I do want to feel better, and wigs seem to be a wonderful solution. I just fear that people won't accept me for who I am, I fear they will always feel sorry for me as they do right now. It is very hard to go through life not being able to open up and show the world the true you, without being afraid you will be turned down. Sorry for the long comment. I just wanted you to know that your video has given me a reason to smile today. 😘
Χαρά Κ. Hello and thanks for the comments! I can really sense your pain. Wigs have changed my life and I am out here in front of everyone in hopes of spreading the word. I think Wigs would be a great solution for you. It sounds like you don’t have anything to lose by trying. It takes some work, but worth it. In my experience , successfully wearing wigs is 10% the wig and 90% the attitude we have. If you find a wig that makes you feel beautiful and like yourself again, wear it and hold your head high. You don’t have to apologize or explain to anyone. Have confidence, smile and have a positive outlook. I had similar fears too, but I was determined to overcome it. I wish you wellness and happiness. XOXO TAZ
My first comment on your channel but I've watched your videos for a while. I've just bought Ignite and love it. I feel very confident wearing it. Such an inspirational, informative video. Keep them coming. Your beautiful and inspiring Taz love Den from England x
Hi Taz - great review! Thank you so much for your comments regarding your experiences when you receive your wig and it looks different from the manufacturer pictures 💕. I go through this every time I get a topper or wig. Never the color I thought it would be or the fibers don't fall in the manner it does on the pictures. 😪. I now know I'm not alone 😍. I always thought I was doing something incorrectly when ordering or I might be using the wrong company to order wigs. Have a beauty filled day! 💋.
Hi Helen, thank you for sharing! This experience is actually more common that having a 'perfect' experience..lol. Having the right expectations is so important in wig life. XOXO
Oh Taz!! I needed this!! You inspire me so! This clip was like you read my mind on how to come from such short hair to "BOOM" a lot of hair! I am going to get where you are, I WILL! Your encouragement is so helpful! Congratulations on going back to Heather, cysterwigs!! I love that place. All by your recommendations!! Look forward to more clips with you and Heather together! Best wishes to both you ladies!! Thank you!!
Sarah and Julianne are my favorite wigs. I would love to get another of each. Julianne in 12fs8 and Sarah in a brunette or red. I too am paranoid about wearing out/ruining long wigs. I damaged my Alessandra last year. Not sure how. She is now a bob. Kinda looks like Emilia. I used to shop around but now only cysterwigs. They do have the best sales. IF I could afford to buy a wig every time they had a sale, my closet would look like yours. :)
Hi TAZ, I'm wondering when you use fabric softener, doesn't it leave your wig smelling like Downy even after rinsing? Just wanted to say every one of those looked so natural on you, love how you embrace wigs..it's very encouraging.
I know you're teamed up with Heather, but you need to try out the $29 Adele from Especially Yours. I have it in a platinum and a silver. they're so fun!! I get more complements on that than just about any one I have! been rocking my new Soft and Subtle in Sandy Blonde! I love it. mine is more curly than some I've seen on RU-vid and that makes me happy! my ignite from Heather's birthday is on backorder and sent out 11 days early! I'm excited to wear it to my granddaughter's first day of Kindergarten! I can't wait to see the martini in real life! ok, I'm always so danged windy! 😂
Dede Vaughn Hi DeDe! I'm so excited for your Ignite in Martini! Wigs are fun whether they cost $200 or $20.. lol. It's really special that your granddaughter is starting Kindergarten! Special time, special hair. XOXO
This was great! FUN! Thanks for sharing your JR collection with us! I especially liked the color comparison w/ Ignite... I am looking to purchase something in the browns (has to still be rooted) for the Fall in that one. Would you have a recommendation for me? Thanks again for a wonderful video!
Jill Lynn Beauty Therapy Hi Jill! Thanks for watching! My friend has similar eye and skin tone as you and she has HotCocoa 8RH14 on Elle. The ashy highlights make this golden brown soft and pretty. Thanks Jill! XOXO
I was so excited that you and cysterwigs have joined forces. There is one wig that I haven't seen a wig review. It is Gabor Next Belle in sunkissed beige. I was thinking of getting this wig, but I wasn't sure. I have 2 Raquel Welch wigs, Voltage and Pitch Perfect and I love them both. I would like to try a curly wig. Have you seen this wig and could you do a review of it? I would appreciate it. Thanks, Carol. PS. I really look forward to your wig reviews. You look beautiful.
Hi Carol. I have not seen the BELLE or any other style from the by Gabor Next line.. maybe take a look at Tony of Beverly KENZIE in T Platinum.. very cute and similar I think! cysterwigs.com/collections/tony-of-beverly-wigs/products/kenzie-by-tony-of-beverly
I just got two J. R. wigs, both in 12FS8, Shaded Prauline, and I"m not sure I'm going to keep them, I got Elle, and Haute, and the Haute is worse than the Elle, but that color you say your wig is, looks orangish gold on my wigs, and the Haute's roots are very dark! To me it looks like someone who needs their roots touched up! Your wig looks much more white tone (ash) than both of mine! I don't know what to do?
Loved this review. I haven't purchased a JR as yet, but I have 10 girls now mostly RW, Noriko & Rene of Paris. I can't quite come up with the right color in JR. I did however just receive RW "Spotlight" Thanks to your review :-).
Debbie Perkins Hi Debbie! Your collection is growing nicely! I love all those brands too. Stay tuned. Those brands will be taking over my closet too in the near future..😉. XOXO
I am new to wigs and your channel. Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I love how you went from short to long and I love how you mentioned the colors. This has been so helpful to me as I begin my journey with wigs. I appreciate it!
Hi, what did you do to keep it out of your face? would you suggest to cut long layers around the face or am looking for trouble just leave it alone....with these wavy wigs I usually mist them with water to tame the hair down before I put the wig on as it dries you don't get that fluff when it dries.....I've read some reviews it's too much hair you can't brush these wigs just use a wide tooth comb for the tangles unless you want a lion look it will kill the life of the wig...I have worn wigs for 30 years even when they weren't in style..... I've' screwed my share of wigs in the past...If isn't much trouble can you list the products you used in the video.....does the hand tied cap have any ventilation ? in my opinion the longer wigs look really great on you.... makes you look younger and please take that as a compliment you are beautiful ... thanks have a great day.....
Veronica Taylor Thanks Veronica! I secure the sides with accessories and clips when needed. You could add layering in Sarah for sure. It’s a lot of hair and I only use a wide tooth comb, never brush. I don’t use brush on any Wigs actually. I use very minimal products in the hair as it attracts dirt and causes more frequent washings. There is no ventilation in a handtied cap.. it traps heat and may not be the best option for summer and warmer climates. Hope this helps. XOXO TAZ
There is perma-tease in Rachel....Just wanted to throw that out there incase someone hates it....but Rachel is a gorgeous wig by Jon Renau....gorgeous style but there is a tiny bit of perma-tease just up around the part at the top :) Nothing like Heidi though.
Hey Taz! A question about static...have you ever just used Static Guard? Thoughts on that? I've had issues with static over the years of course, and used to carry a travel size spray with me in my purse. Hated walking into stores, past a mirror, and realizing it looked like I had just stuck my fingers in a light socket. So when I anticipate a problem, I would give a very quick spray, smooth it out over the hair, and THEN walk into the store.
What a great idea! This is the first I've heard of it, but it makes sense. I will definitely give it a try when static seasons comes! I used to carry around dryer sheets in my bag.. but the smells nauseated me and I didnt think they worked well enough to continue..lol. XOXO
Taz, you’re the best. I have a Scarlett by Jon Renau. She arrived with messy, droopy curls. How can I bring the curls back ? How do I wash her?? Thanks so much!
Sally Good Hi Sally! Scarlett is another style that is so inconsistent. Unfortunately the way your Scarlett is right out of the box is how it will be. You can use some wig mousse or wig spray and scrunch in some addition texture. I don’t recommend using heat on non heat friendly fibers. Hope this helps! XOXO
Hi Taz -- Love this video! I was wondering -- is Rachel much more dense than Julianne? I have Julianne and love it, and have been really itching for Rachel, but then heard that Rachel was much denser?
I am expecting Ignite today. My first wig also. Lost all my hair this week due to chemotherapy. I’m afraid it’s going to be too small though. I’m a 22 3/4 inch. I did not realize my head was unusually big! Is there any way I can stretch it a little??
Hi Taz! Love your reviews! I've been researching wigs for a while now, I've narrowed down the styles, but the blondes are causing me anxiety. Im medium fair skinned, blue eyes - and want the most flattering shade. I'm considering 14/26 or 24b22, any suggestions?
S Jones Hello! I think either color would work for you. The 14/26 is going to be wArmer in tone and darker in color. Either color would look nice next to most skin tones. Good luck! XOXO
ann sorensen Hi Ann. I think the differences you see is just the variance among wigs of the same style. I got this one when the style was first released.. I had one after that and the curl was a little more loose. XOXO
Hi, I’m new to wigs, I ve owned jon renaus mila for 6 months now and have been washing and conditioning it with Jon Renau products. It’s it feels a bit frizzy now and has lost its bounce and sheen. Is there anyway I can restore it by myself. Don’t want to spend 100 on getting it treated coz it’s not that bad yet. It just started showing signs of wear. Thank you.. any advice will help me.
