Here's a tip ... if you have a synthetic wig and you want it to last longer always wash your wigs with dish soap and after that let stay over night in a bucket with warm water and cloth softener let it dry and style it it would look brand new.
Jaymes, I absolutely NEEDED this video. As a baby queen on a budget tighter than the best tuck, I need all the pointers I can get! Sidenote: I ADORE YOUR LAUGH!
You are so generous in sharing your experiences and knowledge. The more I watch your videos, the more I learn to like you and respect you as a fantastic artist. A kiss from Brazil.
I used your tutorials to style a wig for Halloween and now I'm hooked. Starting with cosplay quality but I've ordered ten!!! My natural hair is fine, thin, fragile and impossible to style so I'm excited to try different colors and textures without destroying my hair!!!
thank you from a baby drag king!! ive been on cosplay websites and liked a lot of the wigs on there but i wasnt sure if anyone would take me seriously or maybe it was a bad decision, but i guess youre right when you say theyre good for beginners :3 thank you jaymes
Thank you, honey! This video is PERFECT! I am an everyday wig wearer for YEARS! More recently I've been trying to buy better hair and take batter care of it. I see SO many YT vids about hair & maintenance I feel 97% of them are not being entirely truthful. After watching a very diverse assortment of vids I feel I have learned SO much more from Drag ladies than anyone one else!
I think because they need to get the best of the best products or stretch the longevity of their products, they tend to have the best tips/info. In my experience, I’ve learned so much from drag queens about makeup, clothes, and an assortment of everything else lol.
Jaymes I really enjoy your videos on styling wigs because I'm the type of person that puts a wig on my head and is done. 😏but I think I enjoy watching you the most because you just have a pleasant personality and seemed very down to earth.
Ty James I'm a disabled 49yr old lady but have had some more health issues arise & am looking to have surgeries. My real hair is an indigo color but I wanted to buy my first wig to wear during recovery bc I know i won't feel like coloring & doing my own. My local hair & beauty store is where i was going to buy mine. I know they have different prices & i want to make sure i get everything i need so i really appreciate all your hard work in making these vids!!!💜 you 👑 & would ❤ to see you on all stars 5!!!🤗😍👏 can you plz show how to make your own costume jewelry/ earrings etc.
Great video. Would love you to show us about double-stacking and other neat hair styling ideas like ponytails and using bumps! Again Thank you for doing a fun and informative vid!
Hi Jaymes! So glad I found your super informative channel. Definitely subscribed right away. My question: Would you please do a vid about chest plates and your secrets to padding? Not enough queens are giving us the tee and I trust your judgement. Thanks!
Just bought my first ever wig!! Cant wait for it to arrive! Bought a soft lace blonde curly wig for a discount for like 40$ so i hope its gonna be good quality :)
This is a great guide! I’d like to have someone put me in drag, the makeup I mean. I don’t know how to use makeup very well, and I’d just like to see what I’d look like done up in drag, professionally lol.
My first wig was a human hair wig I bought at Dorothy's (same place Katya worked back in the day!) for 55$. It's really nice but the wrong color for me; I look like Princess Meghan in it 😅
This was really cool, and very informative, but I gasped when you actually said “Lou-uh-vil” correctly. Muh-wah -kee, I expected of course: you live there, but my second hometown you nailed as well. I’m gonna have to tip you a Paypalimony for that one!
could you make a video about how to keep in good shape a wig ? I don`t know how to wash it if is synthetic or natural hair . Thanks I love your videos :)
My Darling Jaymes, Why didn't you use and explain your own wigs? I am seriously thinking about one of your wigs for my birthday. I don't know what to buy or how to buy a wig. I wondered about the size of wigs. You are so petite yet you claim to have a large head. Do we buy wigs by sizes? How do wigs sell by density? Is there a density size? It would not matter if you made the worst videos or not! I love you. You are the best and I love you. Please make another wig video using your own wigs. So much love to you. I think you are amazing. Lots of Love ~E
Could you do a video of getting a styled wig on i usually have to style them on my head then taking them off and having to rewash it because everytime i try i jack up the wig
I just bought my 1st lace front wig on Wish ♥ I cut the lace, shaked the hair and combed it. I also added baby powder (it helps agaisnt the shine of the hair). However, what do you recommend to glue lace? Spirit gum? Xo ♥
Valdemar Creador I use Kryolan TV Mastic spirit gum, but lately I’ve been really into using got2b glu hairspray waiting for it to get tacky and then using a blow dryer.
I love this video, but I thought that maybe you could into depth about wig companies- like BobbyPinz and Wigs and Grace, ect. I would love to know more about them. BobbyPinz dont cover my sideburns so I am hoping my next wig from Wigs and Grace will.
It can be hard to tell how much side-lace you get, because even within a style it can vary a little. I've found the best quality I've gotten to be from And Grace and from this brand of amazon wigs. Try to look for a visible widows peak - those styles will (usually) have more hair on the sideburns. This is one of the wigs I bought recently that had PLENTY of hair on the sides for me www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01I5JVRVS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
To any new drag queens out there or people just looking for cheap lace fronts I’d recommend wish, always read the reviews and weed through the bad ones and you can find some gems usually about £25-30. Obviously for this price they aren’t amazing but take care of them and avoid too much heat and they can last you a while, this is where I got my wigs from when i started drag and they are great for beginners, follow my insta @reginawhorge and message me and I’ll help you look through them and find ya a good one x
