GROOMING AND STYLING MY WIGS:
I use this small wire bristle wig brush...easy to use on tangles..fits perfectly into your bag!
Set of 3 JON RENAU wide toothed wig combs..I stash them in my bag, my car, my office! Affordable!
I use these mini claw clips to style my wigs/hair
These large claw clips are great for thicker hair
Rhinestone hair clips/bobby
Infinity Hair Claw Clips I use
Large auto clasp hair barrettes..the pressure holds ponytails the best,
more secure than claw clips!
I use the snap clips constantly..under tucks or quickly put back your bangs!
IT STAYS body adhesive is a must to secure your wig in wind or anytime:
Sew In type security clips for wigs:
Wig Grip -2 pack
BEAUTY PRODUCTS I ALWAYS USE:
Beautisol is my fave self tanner..no bad smell, an even creamy tan that lasts. I use on my face too..after exfoliating. It was originally sold on QVC.. THE best stuff. I use from May-September. https://amzn.to/2IK0rwh
Beautisol Need I Glow More Sunless Face Tanner https://amzn.to/2uES64W
I use these exfoliating gloves before applying self tanner.. and at least once a week all year round. I throw them in the washer and reuse! I prefer this to heavy gritty scrubs that are harder on the skin and are very expensive.
Famous Dave’s Self Tanning Mitt for streak free smooth application of self tanning lotions and mousse. Reusable/washable https://amzn.to/2UqYET6
Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Medium, not a self tanner..color only. Perfect for adding a touch of color to legs and arms and even out a tan, covers veins and blemishes. I recommend using with the Famous Dave’s Mitt https://amzn.to/2OCCl7I
Australian Gold Botanical Mineral Sunscreen for face..non greasy, mildly tinted, absorbs completely https://amzn.to/2UqYET6
Colorscience powder mineral sunscreen brush applicator 50 SPF..perfect to carry in your bag! https://amzn.to/2WEwmSO
Emoji Tweeze..I use this daily on upper lip and facial areas where my “grandma whiskers” appear.. it removes hair from the root through a pulling motion. Not painful, but takes some getting used to. This is one “As Seen On TV” product that I’ve used for over 10 years. NOT for eyebrows, but can be used between eye brows. Easier than manually tweezing..easy!
I cannot live without this toothbrush! I love my Oral B 8000. It cleans like you’ve just come back from the dentist, yet it’s super gentle..and it whitens!
I use these exact clippers to cut my own hair
Blumbody Silicon Neck Pads - I’ll do a video on these soon..
COSMETICS I ALWAYS STICK WITH:
Cover Girl Jumbo Gloss Balm..Cocoa Twist- I use this color in most videos:
L’Oréal True March Foundation (N3)- I use this daily, but will add a bit of
(N4) in summer or when using self tanner:
L’Oréal True Match Foundation(N4) - I blend a bit of this into the (N3)
Hey everybody welcome back to time swing, closet for wig studio, one today we're going to talk about the newest Aesthetica release. This is Alden in the color. 12 are 12 26 CH. This wig was sent to me by Wix to do one for this review, be sure to go out to Wix, to do one calm, to find this style in all of the available colors and be sure to use the code beautiful.you for 30 % discount. And don't forget to go out to the private Facebook group sponsored by Wix to do one by searching wig studio, one Wix and top our support group. So before I start talking about Alvin, let's take a look at this. Color are 12 26 CH. It is a light ash brown base, shade color and then it's very heavily highlighted with the pale gold blonde. This is not the rooted version of this color and you can tell that the highlights are very, very chunky. It'S a very dramatic color. You actually are gon na see a little bit of striping right up there next to the root because of the very chunky highlighting. So if you're, not a fan of this stripe, enos coming going on there at the root on this color, it's very easy to mess up that part. A little bit to kind of break up. That'S striping Aldon is pure Aesthetica. Aesthetica is known for its very soft feminine sexy styles. This is no different. It'S a beautiful, long, layered, wavy style. It has about a nine and a half inch front piece here now I did measure it from the crown to the tip of the ends at the back and it's about 18 inches. There is some also some layering on the sides. It weighs about four point: nine four ounces, so a heavier style. It features a temple to Temple lace-front and a single monofilament for monofilament. Let'S take a look, the highlighting is ran right up to the root. Aesthetica has really mastered the fine nodding at the lace front. It'S a little bit more densely threaded there at the top, but I still think you can see through to the monofilament Alden has a very beautiful curl pattern to it very cute waves. It'S kind of a summery beachy texture, soapy scene, is there at blaring and at the curl, and then it features a contour right off of that lace front. I love that about the aesthetic of designs of mid length to longer styles. They always seem to get that contour just right for the best and most flattering look around the face, and also consistent with that beautiful feminine look of Aesthetica you're going to find a nice profile in the back. So there's just enough permit ease at the back and at the crown to give it that beautiful profile it's fairly smooth, though until you get about a half way down, and then it breaks out into the choppier Beach shear waves, there's quite a bit of piece eNOS To these, when this came right out of the box, it was super shiny, but the shine was due to the thick thick coating of silicon that was on it. So it kind of had a look, even a greasy. Look to it right where all of these curls are it's kind of dissipated. Now I've worn it for just a little bit and that silicone will rub off or you could give it a good shampoo before you wear it. There'S a lot of hair on Alden. It'S an average too thicker density, but each one of the fibers is true to Aesthetica, which is a finer silky fiber, it's soft and silky to the touch very pliable. I don't sense any kind of rough or dry texture at all. I want to talk about permittees, so when I describe permit ease to you, I'm typically feeling in there to get a sense of that soft pillowy thick under layer of pur tee's to report back to you. This wig is very light on that kind of permit is actually I'm not getting a sense of any big thick pillowy types of permit ease, but I can tell you what it does have is what they call a crimping type of tease, which you will find that On the root of each one of these fibers, its scalloped at the bottom, it's crimped, and that allows it to keep its shape without any adding any extra fiber. However, the downside to that is that sometimes you can really get a sense of this that crimping effect when the hair is parted. Hopefully I can show you here without taking it off you there's. No doubt that Aesthetica has some really beautiful styles available and a lot of them kind of have similar specs. So, if you're looking at Alden to try to determine whether you want Alden or Bay or blaze, some of those newer styles, I want to give you just a quick rundown of maybe some differences. Now Aesthetica Bay is a little bit longer than Alden. The wave pattern is just a soft ripple as opposed to the more beachy texture of Alden. Also, it only has a lace front and a left mono part, as opposed to a full single monofilament top like Alden, now taking a look at blaze as an example. Next to Alden blaze is a bit longer. Blaze is a bit heavier and it does have a lace front and left monofilament side part it's a nice wavy texture, but I don't think that it has quite as much of the piece eNOS that Alden does so each one of them are beautiful in their own Right and there's some definitely some differences, but if you really love that monofilament full monofilament top, I think Alden is the way to go of those three options. There'S the inside of the cap for Aesthetica Alden you'll, see that temple to Temple lace-front. That does not extend back into the ear tab and I think that does contribute to a thicker seam right there, where the lace front meets the cap. You have a full single monofilament top beautiful for a nice realistic touch and versatility of parting. You'Ve got a beautiful, open, ear tab here. This stays our ample an extended open, nape and the incremental strap type adjusters. This wig seems to have quite a bit of stretch its average right out of the box, and I cinched it in quite a bit to accommodate my petite average circumference. Oh that's going to be super fun to style. It'S a longer, wavy sound. Those always look so cute and updos and ponytails, and things just to give you a word on the glasses here. I'Ve got my readers on, I feel like I need to slip them underneath the ear tab to get a secure, fit the ear tabs above the ear seem to be a little bit more beefy. Now they are open, so there's Westing in them. If you wanted to either hook your glasses into that first weft in the ear tab or slip them under the ear tab, which I kind of like to do and that will give you a nice secure fit for your glasses. So that's your left of center or your left of center part and then let's try parting it right down the middle thanks for joining me today for a look at this brand new aesthetic, a style called Alden in the color are 12 26 th see you next Time on Taz's wait: closet
Comments
Sandra G. McAlister: I love how this wig looks around your face, especially the top, how you can get some lift with the bangs! Very pretty,!! Blaze is also beautiful, thanks Taz!
Nani Womack: Adorable on you! Love how you style to give the wig a realistic look! And show what clips to use...Thank you again
Suzanne Dawson: Taz, This is beautiful on you! Thanks for making all these inspiring reviews and fun comparisons! I'm wondering if you have any ideas on storing your wigs other than in the actual boxes that they come in because they take up SO MUCH SPACE? I don't have the extra room. Any thoughts would be welcome! Thank you
denise bissell: Can't wait for estetica to make a color like silvery moon by Gabor. Some of us are not ready for the grave and still want wigs like Jamison or others to be in a non rooted white/ gray. You look terrific as usual!
Raechelle Bennett: This is an amazing style on you Taz! But then again you can literally wear any length and style. Your reviews are the BEST!! Thank you for sharing your insight on all the wigs your present, as it does give such a head start on my next purchase. You rock girlfriend!
midnightblackroses: I love how you normally include glasses segments in your wig reviews. I'm not sure if you take requests but could you maybe do a video on wearing glasses with wigs please? I'm a full-time glasses wearer and I can't seem to work out which way is best. (Under the ear tabs makes it super obvious I am wearing a wig. But they don't have much stretch to go over) Either way, love your reviews, you always cover everything (and look amazing while doing so) :)
Wear Wigs with Me: Wow, Taz! This is so pretty on you! I love the waves of Alden. Looks straight from pool! Great review!
BlueDudette: I ordered Alden the instant she was available. So glad there’s no mono part.
Dan C: Beautiful style. Full mono with lace front midlengths are my favorite. My hang-up with wigs is the back when they separate. Thanks for showing the back coverage, it makes a difference for me!
Framboise: I love your outfit here! The black cuban heels with jeans are so on trend; how ingenious to wear this white sweater front back. And thank you for showing us this wig's true colors: how the crimping affects the rooting. That's really a dealbreaker for me. I'd be afraid a gust of wind would reveal it. And even if people didn't see it's a wig, it looks pretty bad IMO, as if dirty (but only when actually partting or lifting the hair from the root). Also, another factor that would make me hesitate is how heavy you say it is. I own some heavier (cheaper) wigs and on my petite head, they tend to slip back, pushing down on my ears in the most uncomfortable way. However you look fantastic in this and the color really suits you. You have found many ways to make it your own, and it's nice to share them!
Patty Carosi: Such a beautiful wig Taz! I think you look amazing such a beauty you are! You look beautiful in all of the wigs. I really like all the great ways to style the wigs. Hope you have a fun weekend!❤
Kim S.: Love this effortless style Taz and this shade on you really is so pretty! Another one fir my wishlist
Miss Pethamhouse: Great review and as always, your comparisons to other similar styles is so helpful!!
Anna Emmenidis: Such a very comprehensive review thank you x
Cheryl Kitchen: Love that you compare similar styles in the same brand. I have often wished that the websites would allow some kind of comparison similar to Home Depot. (I know that sounds crazy, but for specs I think it would be helpful) Your speaking about the differences is great. I would not mind seeing more of this type of video if you are looking for suggestions for new content. Thanks for posting.
Cassandra K: You look fantastic in longer styles! I can't pull them off. You should do more! Thank you.
Monika's Beauty & Lifestyle: Good morning Taz. I swear you look great in every wig you show us. Have a wonderful weekend!
The Body,Mind&Spirit Channel Cynthia Greer: This is beautiful ! It reminds me of the glamour days of hollywood but it also has the modern waves.

All love and peace to you !
Monika's Beauty & Lifestyle: Wow... that shade looks different on you than me. I so wish I had seen this before I selected my Mellow shade. Love love the length on this too!
Tanya Flynn: Hi Taz. Every wig looks so natural and stunning on you. Xo
sdraper2011: I love the quick-twist buns you make. They look so casual and so pretty!

Suz: Hey pretty lady, another beautiful wig and loved when you styled it! :)) have a fab weekend, big hugs.... Susan oxox
L Pierce: I have the Orchid in this gorgeous color. Probably the best looking wig I have ever bought. But to me, the brown in this wig is a neutral lite brown. Not too ashy. But the highlights are a warm golden blonde and there's alot of them. Alot of golden blonde in this color n to me, this makes the color more WARM. ! Overall I think this color is much more warm than ashy cool. I can't wear ashy cool colors n I can wear this color easily. Have u checked out the perfect Orchid wig?!? She's amazing. !
lnzinorbit lnzinorbit: I enjoy watching you Taz...Hugs From Wisconsin ❤ to hot for the summer..I love my Jamison but soon hot.
Elizabeth B. In Texas: Lovely
angieacapella: Would you say this is a "golden" type color or more ash? I'm looking for a golden color. Can you recommend an estetica color that is on the gold side? Thanks :)
Frankie Lee: You are so beautiful in this, unlike that blasted crimping. Not a fan, soooo not a fan. x
MichelleM: Absolutely gorgeous! You look like you could be Melania Trump sister..lol!..that was a compliment btw.
