Wig Review: Tea Leaf Layer By Belle Tress In Mocha With Cream

Hey everyone welcome to the hair I wear for wigs by Patti's pearls calm. I am Lauren, and today I am bringing you another gorgeous belt rest piece from their cafe collection. This is tea leaf layer now. The first thing that stands out to me about this wig is the color. I mean let's talk about this color real quick, because it's just so obviously beautiful and dimensional that we just need to talk about it right away. Okay, so the color on this piece is called mocha with cream. So this is a rooted piece, so it has a very dark brown root and then the overall color is just a very warm brown, with lots of honey and caramel and really kind of lighter blonde. Highlights now something that stuck out to me about this piece, and I don't know if you'll be able to tell, but if you look right there at the ruining some of the blonde I mean there's a lot of warm blonde in is definitely more like the caramely Honey blonde, but there are pieces in it that are so light. They almost look white to me some, like they're, trying to resemble some gray in there. I don't know if this is, if it's this piece specifically or the other mocha with cream colors, have a few of those really like almost bleached blonde pieces in it. But it's definitely something worth noting that it has such a light. Color strand running through it, but overall this is so dimensional and beautiful. It just looks like you stepped out of the salon and had a rockin color job done, and you can see more when I put it on how the color is distributed around the face and the back. Okay, let's talk about this cap construction. This is a mono top, so you get the option of parting anywhere. You need to. It, has a beautiful lace, front, adjustable, ear tabs and then there is an adjustable strap down here at the nape to give you a nice snug fit now. This does not have lefting, but it is super stretchy and it just feels really soft and really good on the inside. So I feel like the cap. Construction is very well done now. This does have a shorter bang again you'll see when I put it on, but the shortest piece is going to be about six inches across your forehead and then the longest point down here is about 21 and a half inches the sides. The layers are about 12 inches long and from the nape down it's about 14 inches. Okay. Oh, it's also worth noting that this is a heat friendly wig, so you can use your your styling tools on it to give it some movement or to calm down any frizz. That might happen. Heat friendly fibers tend to tangle and frizz a little easier than a synthetic. So all you're gon na need to do is just put your heat tools on a low setting and just kind of knock out any frizz. That may happen all right. I'M gon na go, get tea leaf layer on and show you what she looks like as always be screen shot ready, because here are the details on Tea Leaf layer. Okay, here she is, this: is tea leaf layer in the color mocha with cream? Now I love this, look, love it the layers on this piece I feel like for me suit my face and my features better than some of the other belt trust pieces. I reviewed some of the other pieces. The layers were a little bulkier around the face, which is very flattering on a lot of women, but for me, this style with the long layer is just, I feel, like a more flattering cut, and so this right here is about the shortest layer. That'S going to hit your face and it's definitely way below the chin and then the length you can see it's coming all the way down here. So it's definitely a long layered look now it does have a bang, but I feel like the bang, is very well done. It'S not heavy. It'S just a few strands. A lot of times, bangs, you know, will fall down in your face and you kind of have to train the knots to go over or get a little sweep going on. But I feel like this just naturally goes over to the side, and it gives you a little bit of a layered look up here, but not so heavy that I feel like it's constantly going to be falling falling falling into your face. So I really like the way this is cut and the way it lays just right out of the box. All I did was adjust the part line, and, and that's it this I would not do any kind of D shining out of the box. I don't think it's overly shiny. I think it looks like healthy hair, the feel of it it's incredibly silky and soft. It has a beautiful texture to it. I love the way it feels. I just I really like the the cut and the feel of this way. Okay, so the coloring, you can see the the blond highlights in this there's a heavier strand around the face and it looked like if you see down here, it looks like there's a heavier highlight underneath and it almost looks like it's tipped in a lighter color. You can see that so there's some really really great dimension. Now, I'm going to show you the route here and see if I can show you what I was talking about with the really light blonde running through it. Sometimes my camera wants to adjust the color and it won't get a good close-up and it almost resembles a gray strand kind of running through there I mean it's not heavy, it doesn't like. I need to get my roots done, but I think it is worth noting that some of the blonde pieces are so light. They look like grey hairs. Okay, let's talk about this lace front belt. Rest is a really great job with their lace. It'S very thin. That'S hitting my widow's peak, it's very thin. It doesn't come down very far. I feel like the knotting in the front again is really heavy and some of the pieces are knotted a little bit further down than others. So the part line or the hair line isn't super straight and here in the part again, the knotting is very heavy. So if I were to customize this for me, I might go in and pluck a few of those just to get a more natural part line. And then I would go in with some concealer and try to lighten that up a little bit because you can tell from far back. I have no defined a part line and for me I really like the look of a defined part line, because that gives it such a natural look and with this routing, your color is going to look really natural. So I feel, like the part line, needs to match, so that's probably what I would do as far as customization goes, I might even put a little bit of heat right at the roots here, just to kind of swoop. This bang back a little bit just so. It'S not so flat to my head, but that's really the only thing I would do to it so right out of the box, I feel like she's good to go. This is just a really pretty cut and a beautiful color. Okay. So as far as styling goes, this is meant to just be straight and sleek. It is heat friendly, so you probably could go in on these ends and maybe just give them a little way, but I don't think you're gon na get a super curly. Look with this piece again, you can go in with your fingers and kind of loosen things up and play around with it, but I don't think this is gon na be a big voluminous piece. It'S just meant to be worn beautifully straight and sleek, which I I love. I love the look of this okay. So let's talk about the ear tuck now I feel like the ear tabs on this one come down a little further than the other ones. I have reviewed so you would definitely want to leave some strands of hair out before you do that ear, tuck or else you're gon na get kind of a harsh line where your ear tabs are again. Those bangs are short enough that they are not gon na. Go back behind your ears, they for sure will fall forward, but you can definitely get an ear tuck with this wig and get a super cute. Look like that. Of course, I love a side ponytail. So all the layers are long enough that you could get it all over and pull it back either on the side there or in the back and as always, leave some strands down over your ear. So you don't get a harsh line from the ear tuck. You could also, if those bangs are driving you crazy. You could just twist them back like this and do a little clip on the side. I can get a hold of my clip over here and oh my stars. I just dropped my clip, but there you go. You get the idea, you can clip it back and get those bangs back. If you want to do that kind of style. So there's some versatility to this piece and again it is heat friendly and those heat friendly, fibers tend to tangle a little easier than synthetics, especially behind the behind your head around the nape of your neck. So definitely want to keep this brushed out. Just use a wide tooth comb and carefully go through any tangles starting at the ends. Every time you wear it and then that's really all you're gon na need to do to it and just follow the care instructions that belt recommends. Okay, let me give you a 360-degree look at tea leaf layer. Well, I'm going to if I can get my chair, adjusted okay here we here is the side. There'S a back look and I'm running into my my background here side there she is alright! Okay, I think y'all can see it in my face. I just love this look.
