Thanks for watching, and for the encouragement. There really are some great bargains on Amazon. You just have to be aware that not all of them will suitable. I kept 4 of the wigs I ordered and returned the rest. :-)
I'll be 71 in 18 days and for 10 yrs I've used pink temporary dye on the hair in front of my ears & across the top bang area. The rest of my hair is white like Shellys' is. I just couldn't deal with myself looking so pale with all-white hair. I have thoes scrunchy buns and fake ponytails for summer looks. Wish I could wear wigs but I still get hot flashes when I have to many clothes on. A wig would be like a hat for me and make my head too warm. So not only do I dye my hair pink. I have 6 ear piercings in each ear 2 in each ear are gauged, I have a industrial piercing in my right ear and I'm working on getting the spider vains on my calves tattooed. I've had 4 done already I have a few more to go. I will never be pigeonholed into looking like an old lady cause I will never be one no matter how old I get.
@@chrisbruno6681 Good grief, I hoped hot flashes stopped after meno. Bugger. I have a a large collection of wigs which I haven't been able to wear because of meno. I hoped I'd be able to wear them again now. I did used to dye the front of my hair purple but one wash and most of it fades too pale pale pink. Anyway, it makes me happy to know there are rebels of our age still going strong 😁 x
@@kitsirainbowfineart You know we are! As for hot flashes, I just can't get rid of them, I can't take HRT cause I had breast cancer in my left breast. It was taken care of easily with surgery and no kemo as it didn't go into my lymph nodes. It was all contained in just the breast. But my hot flashes just won't go away. I can't ware anything long sleve unless I can take it off really fast when an episode hits. I don't get cold in the winter though. which is nice cause when I was young I was a freeeze baby with cold toes, fingers and nose all winter long. Now I ware tank tops and shorts all yrs long around my house. I only sleep with a flannel top sheet as a winter blanket. And to go out in the winter I only have to put on a med-weight coat with a hood on it for any wind that might be blowing. I almost never get cold unless in AC for too long. Can't handle that even with hot flashes. I'm all messed up when it comes to my body's tempurature. Oh, the reason my pink stays in for so long is I don't have to wash my hair that often. My hair got curlier as it got whiter. I use mouse to define the curls and sleep in a satin bonnet cause my neck sweats at night. So I don't find the need to wash my hair that much which leaves the temp dye in longer. Even if I want to brighten it up I use hair chalk or soft art chalk to bring the color back in between the dying. I often let it go pretty pale a lot though. Besides slapping some dye on just that small portion of hair only takes like 10 min not counting the time I let it process. Processing time depends on how bright I want the pink. I usually redye it once a mth. Rebel is putting it mild for me. I may have a total anti-establishment gene in me. I've never been normally what my age should be, whatever that should look like, according to someone elses ideas.
I’m amazed my favorite wig was the GREEN one! When you put the shorter,curly style and pulled it away from your face with the headband..WOW. This was lots of fun…thanks
The green wig is def. the cutest, most flattering, and, strangely, the most natural looking. You will be the queen of the St. Patrick's Day parade in that wig!
You had me at "hooky-doo!" 😀 As someone who is losing their hair, and also doesn't have a lot of money to spend, I thank you for this! (wigs are _expensive!)_ P.S. your kitty is beautiful!
Thank you so much! I am glad this was helpful. I cannot take credit for "hooky-do". I learned that from Tia Maria, a wonderful wig coach and reviewer. Best wishes for a successful wig hunt!
OMG, I looooove the pink one! 😍 The curly red one, too! The green one is super-cute with the headband. Thanks for demonstrating that an inexpensive wig can look surprisingly cute. For someone who just wants to change up her look now and then, it's a fun option.
Thank you so much! We can be different women every day! My motto is "Wigs are jewelry for your head!", so I also enjoy them as another way to accessorize an outfit. And, I like to make people smile, which they do with some of my more "colorful" wigs, lol.
The green with headband looked great and so did the pink one. I got sick and am loosing all my hair and need to find a wig . Well now, because of you, I can get several wigs. Thank you for the info and loved that you shared this. Thank you again 💓
I started with Amazon Is. Learning the work to make them more believable really helps because I've bought a couple that cost more. On sale, the prices aren't bad, usually the reason is fewer colors. If you keep watch you will find affordable ones. The more expensive ones can eliminate a lot of the changes the cheap wigs need but I've still had to make styling changes. The good news, I wasn't afraid.
@debistanley2791 Thanks for weighing in. The inexpensive Amazon wigs I have kept don't really require any work for me to wear them. I usually choose banged wigs so I don't have to worry about fake looking hairlines. I choose wigs that have some volume on top and/or curls/waves around the face because I've found that wigs that fit flat and close to your head like bowls or helmets do look fake. I return any Amazon wigs that cannot be worn without modification. :-)
The green one is definitely the best! The headband really makes it and the curls are beautiful. 💚 It's amazing how nice these cheap wigs turned out to be. Much better quality than you used to get for that price and higher.
When you pulled out the green wig, I almost fainted. Lol Then you paired it with that beautiful headband. Wow! So pretty and trendy. It was so great of you to show us such a great variety of options. Beautifully done! Thank you! You seem like such a lovely lady. Keep it coming!
Due to Hashimoto's I am permanently bald to halfway my head. For now I have a hairpiece witch my hairdresser glues to my head. It's quite expensive but it lasts for over 5 weeks and looks very natural. Seeing your video shows me that there are altrnatives. Thank you for sharing!
This is the first time I've seen you. I love, love, love that you try these wigs and show me how great they look. My hair has always been called baby fine and now "I'm 73" thinning. Finally seeing you show these wigs I can afford to get one or two for myself. Love you in the green and pink! Thanks for the inspiration.
Hi Carol. Yes. I am new to RU-vid. I do have three other videos loaded so far, and there are more to come. I ordered another batch of Amazon wigs under $10, so it will be fun to see what this next group is like. Thank you for watching and commenting. Please subscribe if you haven't already. so you don't miss any videos. :-)
YAY! Thanks SO MUCH for doing this! I’ve wondered for so long what Amazon wigs are like & now I’ve got a pretty good idea! I’m excited to try some now! I have very long hair but it’s been the SAME hair for a very long time & I'm tired of it. You look so cute in these wigs, I’m glad you kept a few. Thanks again for doing this, I’m seriously grateful! Hope you’re having a beautiful day! 💕
This was a super fun video to make. Thank you for watching and commenting, and happy hunting! I am confident you will find some great wigs that are perfect for you. More to come on my channel. :-)
The green one with the headband looks surprisingly good. When I first saw the green my brain kinda paused, followed by a oh wow! Using the headband to hide the edge is a really really great idea.
I’m actually shocked that these are not cheap looking like I had expected, and the styles are very nice. I have alopecia, so I really appreciate seeing this, because wigs can be costly. Thanks!
You are welcome! There are a lot of fun wigs out there! I will have another video of under $10 wigs coming out soon. Please subscribe so you don't miss any videos. :-)
Great video with all the wigs! I love the long pink one on you. It goes well with your complexion! I like the same style as the pink , in the ash brown, too. Actually the reds looked great and I like what you did with the green! Great job and presentation. Your cat was beautiful!! I love your fun and adventurous style!!
Great video! I was bald in my 30’s due to a thyroid condition. It took 6 years before it all grew back..I wish I had your videos 30 years ago!! Thanks..this was fun! 🤗 The Green wig looks amazing!! Who would’ve thought? 😊
I know, right? But I do love that green one! I am glad your hair has come back. Unfortunately, 30 years ago none of this was available to us. I will be doing more videos in the future. :-)
What a fun time. Ive never seen a wig video. They all look amazing on you. Gotta say the red curly one is my favorite. The choppy, beachy look is great. Wonder if they have that one in different tones of blondes ..TY for sharing. Hugs 🇨🇦🍁🥰
Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Yes, I believe that style of wig comes in blonde. If you search Amazon for wigs with beachy waves, you may be able to find a blonde one.
Thanks for watching and commenting! I love being a different woman every day, do I really enjoy changing out my colors and styles! Hope you find some to have fun with!
Thank you for this video! I'm sure it helps a lot of people, including me. I have a limited budget and no knowledge on wigs. I was just told I have lupus. My boyfriend was trying to be supportive and told me I could wear wigs if all ( the rest) of my hair fell. He said it would be fun. You just convinced me that he was right! I might even buy a few even before I "need" them.
Exactly! Wigs are jewelry for your head! They are a fun way to accessorize outfit, or to make a statement. You can be a different woman every day, just like I am. Go for it! Happy hunting!
Thank you Shelly,this was a a fun little video. I was so surprised 2 find that someone else actually goes to the trouble of looking thru so many brands & trying to find the bargain wigs that are on sale for under $20 & in some cases under $15or $10 even,lol!! I think most of the units u got looked pretty & all were adorable on you. I think 1 of the main secrets to not getting a totally fake looking 1,is 2 make sure they have bangs if they arent lace front..Also,green is my fav.color & I always find 1s on sale that look good,so I put em(& some others I like the look of with wild/un-natural coloringing that I ❤) in my cart,but always lose my nerve & never wind up getting them..I was worried about the map of beauty wigs,cuz I only see ppl.get them 4 cosplay/costumes,but seeing how cute & natural or realistic the 2 were on you, actually helped 2 change my mind & go ahead & try a couple that I saw in the last few days & decided 2 pass up thinking they would look plasticy,but hey apparently dont,lol!! This whole video really kinda inspired me 2 go on & get a batch of the bargain 1s I haved saved in my cart rn,& not be as worried about the quality as I have been. Maybe some day I'll do a review that features the bargains I was able 2 find on Amazon & make a fun video like this 1 too!
Hi Shelley, my first time of seeing your videos and had to send a message of thanks. Am in bed with a big smile on my face as I've enjoyed watching you try on each wig. Have never thought to go for wigs but as age progresses and health deteriorates, my hair is no longer my crowning glory. Have never seen anyone here on RU-vid trying on wigs. Thank you for your fun approach and not getting too heavy about it all. Would love a little more info such as how secure any you kept were on wearing and any pros and cons. Cannot believe how good the green was once you added the band to it, really looked good on you. Once again, many thanks regards from UK 🇬🇧
Hi. I am glad I was able to bring a smile to you! I am new to RU-vid so you will see all my bloopers! If a wig seems exceptionally loose, I may use a couple of bobby pins to secure it. Another item many folks use is a wig grip. Wig grips slide up on me in the back because I do not have a pronounced occipital bone. If I wear a wig grip, I usually use two pressure clips at the nape to keep the wig grip in place. I hope this is helpful.
Its so perfect on you. Im impressed! Im an Asian senior and I always have straight hair longer than my shoulder but sometimes I just need to change my look and try shorter hair. This is such a doable option. Thank you for sharing this.
As someone who is experiencing hair loss in my mid 30s my self esteem has taken a hit, but seeing you try all these wigs on I think I may indulge in a few of these budget friendly options to try out what I want in an "investment" wig that would be more sustainable long term. It'll be fun to surprise my husband with different looks😁
Thank you! I will have to look for something similar to what you are describing I just received my second batch of wigs under $10 from Amazon, and will be making another video like this soon. Please subscribe so you don't miss any videos. :-)
I loved the green wig, too, but I think that besides being a fun color, the headband gave it a more styled look, and it created a great line for your face shape. I have a styrofoam head, and use wig pins to secure and style mine first. The bangs are always unruly. And my tip for the hot flashes is to get some chemical reaction ice packs, keep them in your purse, and put them in your bra as needed! Thanks for sharing this!
Thank you for watching and commenting! Not sure about the hot flash comment. Are you responding to someone else with that suggestion? More to come on my channel!
What!!! After watching your video I've decided to buy me some wigs. I have beautiful silver hair but watching you have fun with all the colors made me want to add color to my head. I'll watch "wigs 101" videos on RU-vid to familiarize myself with wigs, as I know nothing about them. Thank you, you're so thoughtful to share this with us.
You are welcome! That one was being discontinued and the clearance price was insane! There are great bargains to be found, but they do not last long. Thank you for watching and commenting.
The first wig(blond one) was not bad at all for a cheap wig. It looked great on you. I love the pink one too. Twilight’s eye look like crystals/gems with facets in them! So cute! The last red wig is very cute also. So wavy, I love it!
I really enjoyed watching this! Thank you for showing these wigs. I have Cutaneous Lupus and Alpecia so I am losing my hair on the top and sides of my head. I have no clue what to get in a wig and I didn't know they were so inexpensive.! I feel encouraged that I can buy some and send them back if they don't look good. This was wonderful to see and you are beautiful! All the wigs looked awesome on you.
Hi Shelly! I just found your Chanel.I loved all the wigs on you! So cute! I can tell that you are having fun with those cheaper wigs, and it really makes me smile. I love a good cheaper wig! Some of the Hair Cube wigs are quite good.
I really enjoyed watching this - I would love to get a couple cheap wigs, so I can play around with the way I look. The only (constructive) criticism I have, is I wish there were links to wigs you tried on - to make for a quick and easy way for me to shop the wigs I liked on you. Super fun video though 💕
Hi Caitlin. Amazon prices change often, and deeply discounted wigs like these sell out very quickly. You can find others by "searching" Amazon for "wigs under $10". If you do not see any you like today, check back there in a few days, because they turn the inventory quickly. Happy hunting!
Great video! I got an ombre brown one from Hair Cube on Amazon. I used it as a topper. My husband didn't even notice, while my son only said, "your hair looks lighter today." Amazon wigs are fun.
Thanks for sharing your wigs with us Shelly. I think you must be a natural redhead because the reds always look so amazing on you. My favorite of this haul is the curly red one, with that sassy green running a close second. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much. My bio hair was originally dark brunette, but I always wanted red hair, so now I indulge myself with lots of reds, lol. I do prefer the curly ones on me, and the green one is just too cute. Thanks for being here and for all these compliments.
I love the pink one. It really looked great on you! I love the hair extensions, I've always been afraid to wear the wigs. I don't think I can make them look natural. They just look funny on me. Beautiful cat!!! ❤
Hi Cindy. It may take time to find a wig you like. That is the great thing about Amazon Prime. As long as you do not brush them or alter them in any way, you can repackage and send back any that do not suit you. I think one of the mistakes new wig wearers make is to wear the wig too far forward on their forehead. The hairline of the wig should sit at your natural hairline, or approximately 4 fingers above your eyebrows. I hope this helps, and I hope you will give wigs another try!
The green one, definitely. My imagination says that that's a hairstyle & color that you would see on a mythical woodland fairy. Very cute & looks best on you, and in my opinion it's a very flattering style for you. 🧚🏼♀️
The wigs are great, especially for those prices. Maybe I'll start wearing some. I love your kitty Twilight! He's beautiful. I have 3 girl kitties. Thanks for videos. Lori, east of Buffalo, NY
Hi! New subbie here. I just happened upon your channel, and I am very glad that I did. I love your energy and the positive vibes! Not to mention that I see wigs as an accessory and a way to have fun. Thank you very much. Have a blessed day!!
I had to watch this again because these cheapy wigs are cute! I made a promise to myself that I'll never pay the exorbitant prices for so called high end wigs, especially after spending thousands on them. No more. I'm going to check out these little Amazon gems! Thank you for reviewing them!
You are so welcome! There are different discounted wigs on Amazon all the time. If you don't see anything you like today, check back in a few days, and there will be others to look at. Happy hunting!
I am so glad this popped up on my feed! I thought this was so great that I sent it to all 6 of my girls, and they loved it too! I subscribed and think I'll be ordering some wigs to try:-)
Thank you for passing this video on. I am glad you and your girls enjoyed it! Amazon does have some great bargains, but they do tend to sell out quickly. Happy hunting! Please let me know how you make out. :-)
Wigs are awesome! My friend Tia Maria says, "Life is short, wear wigs!" I agree! Wigs are jewelry for your head! Think of them as an accessory for your outfit. They are also a great way to make a statement. Please give it a try and let me know how you make out. Wigs are fun! You can be a different woman every day!
Thank you so much for this vid., it helps to know what synthetic wigs are out there and look like. Half my hair has fallen out over the years and it will get worse, yet I've been so scared to go and get help. I think the shorter red one suits you the best. 💖
Thank you for watching and commenting. I love my wigs! I can be a different woman every day. Wigs are jewelry for your head. I encourage you to give them a try! Please write back to let me know how you make out. Sending hugs!
Hi. Hope you enjoyed the video and will give Amazon wigs a try. Just remember these are fashion wigs and cannot be compared to the expensive hair replacement wigs on the market. That said, many of these wigs are really good quality and have very nice hair fibers. I love all the options these wigs provide at such an inexoensive price.
Wow the green looked beautiful on you as well as the light mauvish pink. But the green hands down was the most lovely one. Ty for sharing this with us it made me want to try a few. My favorite one for me was the brown one by the same manufacture as the light long pink.
I don’t know why this came up but it did and I watched it. Very cute I may have to get a few for my teenage granddaughter. The price is certainly right. You’re adorable and so is your cat!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! Please let me know how you and your granddaughter like the wigs if you decide to order some. I have another batch of Amazon wigs coming, so please subscribe so you don't miss any videos.
I am amazed how nice the under $10 wigs look. You looked really cute in the pink wig, but the shorter red one looks natural as well. The bang clips are no bueno. LOVE your adorable kitty cat too. Wow, almost 20! That's how long my recent sweet boy lived too. Lots of love & good care will give them a long life!
You look STUNNING in the red one that was on the paper towel roll!!! That color just does something extra special for you! Not that you aren't pretty in all of them but that one is just magical! ETA: The ginger one right after is extra special too!! Maybe yr meant to be a redhead!! 💚
Thank you! I always wanted red hair. My natural color was dark brown, and my hair dresser said he wouldn't color my hair red because of the damage stripping the brown coloring would cause to the integrity of my hair. Fast forward to today. And now I can be any color I want to be. And I do wear a lot of reds! :-)
@@shelly410 what fun!! Im hopefully coming to the close of the worst of my menopause hot flashes bc right now, just thinking about wearing anything on my head is making me sweat like a monster so wigs are out til thats over LOL!! Red definitely suits you altho you look lovely in all the colors! Like others commenting, I love the green on you too! What color is yr natural hair now? I am 54 now & mine is partly still holding some black dye & other parts are a not pretty yellowish grey. If it was silver or white or a pretty grey, I'd love it but its wiry like Einstein lol & is the gross yellowed color of an old smokers moustache. YUCK! I subbed to yr channel & am very happy I found it! Hope yr having a good weekend!💚
