Today’s top salon trend is the deconstructed wave. This long silhouette is loaded with all-over layered, deconstructed ”scrunched” curl texture as well as a lace front, monofilament part for varied parting options and off-the-face styling.

( upbeat music, ) ♫ Follow my heart. ♫ Follow my needs ♫. Wherever I go, I can feel your breeze ♫. You make me feel good when something goes bad ♫. You give me some a feeling that I cannot forget. ♫ Our love ♫, Our love ♫. I do you our love, Hi, there wig lover, this is Heather from Cysterwigs.com and today I'm bringing you a review of a brand new Gabor wig called Radiant Beauty. And I'm bringing it to you in two colors.. We'Ve got Dark Copper, which is also known as GL30/32.. We'Ve also got later on in the review Black Coffee, which is known as GL2/6.. So let's talk about this wig.. First of all, the star attraction of this wig is obviously it's killer. Hair texture. This is gorgeous. Hair texture Like the curls, are super cute. ♫. Look at that ♫ Looks like I've been scrunching it all day Like it's pretty impressive., I'm kinda, I'm kinda loving this hair texture. And I don't really see many wigs that have exactly this kind of curl pattern.'Cause. It'S basically like that boho beach spiral on steroids.. It'S like lots of it as if they added a lot of like that sea spray mist and then just went like this all day. Long.. You know that's what it looks like to me at least.. It'S just beautiful, effortless, ohh., So pretty.. So if you like that texture, but you don't like the work that goes into it, haha You've got a wig now.. I just I'm actually really blown away with how much I love this wig.. The length of it is really lovely.. The texture is beautiful., You know and just really really dig it.. So let's talk about the color.. This one is that Dark, Copper, color., So I'm gon na hone in on that.. I think that the color description on this one, as in Dark Copper, really does do a good job of describing it., Even though it's not really all that dark. You know like a lot of Gabor colors. It'S kind of lighter than the color code would indicate. And also lighter than the name would imply.. So in this particular case, it's a medium auburn, a number 30 with an Irish red mixed in. That has a little bit of true red in it as well.. So it's a very beautiful, blended color.. All Gabor colors are blended.. They don't really have colors that have like super super super highlighted tones.. If you're looking for a wig line that has more highlighted shades, you want to steer towards the Envy line or something like that.. But this is a great line if you like subtle, color variations and colors that have a hint that they might be highlighted, but don't scream I got highlights. Then these are the colors for you., Very beautiful, wig ohh.. Let me show you what this one looks like all the way: around. ( upbeat, music, ), ♫, Yeah ♫. I do ( laughing ) ♫, Oh ♫, Hoo hoo, I'm in love, I'm gon na fluff'er up just a little bit'cause. This is straight out of the box. So she's a little flat even to where she could be. This one could give you a lot of volume because of that texture.. It does have really good movement, as you can see when the wind blows. Just very beautiful, beautiful, beautiful wig.. Now with all wigs that are this heavily textured, you don't want to comb it.. You don't want to comb it. You just want to use your fingers to play with it., Because if you comb it you'll, basically you know be uncurling the curl and you will never be able to get it to look exactly like this again.. So if all you're looking for is just to relax it a little bit to get it to look a little bit more natural, your fingers are really your best bet. There. Ohhh.! Isn'T that just dynamite. So let me show you the lace front., Which slipped a little bit. While I was styling it. There we go., I don't use tape when I'm doing these reviews. So sometimes, when I get a little, you know vigorous with the fluffing, they can move around.. Also, this cap is quite generous. This particular average size cap is going to be large on a lot of people who have smaller than average heads. On me. I think it fits quite comfortably, but I'm used to wearing average sized wigs, so it has a lot more room here at the perimeter that I'm accustomed to. Very, very lovely.. So let me show you what the interior of the cap looks like on this one in Black Coffee.. As you can see, we've got that monofilament inside part. Lace. Front. Got a little pop of permatease here on the side.. It'S open wefted on the sides and the back. Quite stretchy, as I mentioned before, on the sides. Velcro adjusters at the nape.. We'Ve got an extended felt nape here in the back. Very nice cap construction on this one. And if I this one still has its zig zag parts. Let me fix that, so I can show you the monofilament in here. I like showing off the monofilament features on wigs that have dark colors'cause, it's hard to hide the the knotting issues on dark colors.. That'S actually pretty good! You can see the the monofilament is a little bit on the sparse side., But if you wear a wig cap underneath it you should be A-okay there. And then the lace front on this one as well as the other one, are pretty well done.. They do go straight across, though, so, if you like, that little bit of contour in the middle of your lace, fronts you're not really gon na get that with any of these Gabor lace front wigs.. So let's talk some specs. Radiant Beauty weighs 3.75 ounces, which is a great weight for a wig. That'S this voluminous and this luscious of a mid-length.. The front down is 10.5 inches.. The crown down is also 10.5.. The sides are 11.25, so they're a little longer than the front and the back., And then the nape is 10.. So now I'm gon na go ahead and take Radiant Beauty in Dark, Copper off and put the one in the Black Coffee on. So you can kind of see what it looks like in a really nice dark, color too. Ahh. This wig looks great in dark, colors too.. Look how beautiful that is. And this by the way is like. I said that Black Coffee color, which isn't really black. ( laughs, ) It's more of like a sort of chocolatey espresso brown color'cause. When the light hits it you can see, it's got a little bit of warmth to it. Just a little hint of it. And when I dip my head out of the light, it's quite a bit darker.. But it's still not. You know black.. So, if you're, looking for an off-black you're gon na have a hard time finding one in the Gabor line., All their brunette shades tend to be a little bit lighter, then their color codes would otherwise indicate.. This is right. Out of the box has not been fluffed.. The texture looks just like this when you buy it., So let me go ahead and do another little 360 for you. ( upbeat music, ) ♫. I do ( laughing ) ♫, Oh ♫, Oh ♫, I'm in love! So there you have it.. This has been the Cysterwigs review of the Radiant Beauty wig by Gabor in two different colors.. We brought you Dark Copper, which is GL30/32. And Black Coffee, which is GL2/6., Which is not a black color whatsoever., It's more like a dark sort of a espresso brown.. So until next time I'm Heather from Cysterwigs.com. Check out my web store. If you get a chance which is www.CysterWigs C-Y-S-T-E-R-W-I-G-S.com.
