Wig Review | Jon Renau Lucy Shaded Peach 30A27S4 | Professionnel Line

And I am here today to show you a wig by John Bernal. This is Lucy. Lucy is part of Joe Bruno's professional line. Did you know that they had a line of wigs that are exclusively reserved for brick-and-mortar wig shops? Well, I didn't until this launch, so I've been seeing this professional line all over Instagram and social media and have been really curious about it. So let me show you the tape first, so this is Lucy and Lucy's in the colored 30, a 27 s4 also known as shaded peach, and I have been dying to try shaded peach for a long time. I'Ve been really afraid to get it because I thought it would be too light. Well, I'm really into lighter wigs now, so I finally got myself shaded peach. I'M gon na show you this cute little box that it came in it's a pink, very light, pink box. It'S just really cute, so johnrandall has a line of ways, as I believe do other manufacturers that they reserve only to be sold in wig boutiques wig shops, wig salons, and so you can't actually get this wig at an online retailer. I happened to purchase this way from a wig sister, who had gotten it and then determined. The color was the wrong color for her and a little bit with the links but um, and so I was able to buy this from a wig sister. I didn't have to go into a wig store to get it, and so I thought, oh, what a good opportunity to try this style, and so here I am to share it with you guys now, if you are not near a wig store I'll give you some Resources in the link in the links below that you may be able to use to get this way because I do know a couple of brick-and-mortar stores will sometimes service customers if they are part of like their Facebook group or if they reach out to them. Other way - and I have purchased from one of the links I'll share with you for sure, and so there are ways for you to get this way, even if you do not live near a store. So keep that in mind. Um Lucy is a fully hand tied cap and I will show you the cap, so she is one of the jogger know fully hand tied cap lanes front monofilament, all of the bells and whistles I I don't know how much she retails for because, like I said, I bought it from a wait sister a little bit used, so I got her for a good price, but I know that they're hand tied caps can be between four and five hundred dollars, so she's probably a spending weight, but you might be able to find one On one of the Newsweek sites or eBay, so if you like this, keep your eyes open. Lucy is a Bob with some subtle, subtle ways: she's, not curly, she's, very slightly wavy. I have not done any styling with Lucy. I don't know I'm at the way sister. I got her from had not either and she had not washed her, so this is pretty much out of the box. I did put a little foundation on the part and I'll show you that when I take off the cap just to try to draw out that part, I have Christy by John Renault. Christy is also a fully hand tied cap she's, a bob, a straight Bob and I had put foundation on her part and it just made all the difference. So I feel like I might need to do a little bit more work here, but that's all I've done to her. So let me show you how Lucy looks from all directions. I wish I could do something about this camera changing color when it can't see my face. Sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it doesn't so she's she's, very, very um she's, a moderate density she's, not a ton of hair but she's not super light density, either. She'S good head of hair, because she's got a fully hand tight cap. She has no permit ease whatsoever. There is no permit ease in this way. She'S very, very flat. Um flat and pouf can be really hard to see in a video. So you have to really rely on the reviewer to kind of describe how it feels and how it is in person and so keep that in mind. But for this one she is very flat to the head. There is no pouf right here at all. As a matter of fact, I do like Lucy, but I one of the things I struggle with I've considered wearing her a few times to work, and I just haven't yet because of this this when on me, because of how round my face is when I get Awake that has some body on the sides, but is really flat on top. I don't know that. That'S super flattering on me. It'S certainly not terribly flattering to my eye. So that's one thing I struggle with with Lucy. So for those of you who don't like any real volume on the top, who really like the flip when it's kind of flat, which is honestly pretty realistic - I mean most women's hair - isn't super poofy up here unless they do a lot of back combing and put A lot of thickening product in so in that sense, this is gon na, be really really realistic because she's a fully hand tied cap. She just moves great and Jagger no fully hand high caps just really hug the head. They feel like a glove on your head, at least to me, and I'll be 100 %, honest with you guys. That is not my favorite feeling. Some people love the fully hand, tied caps, just love them, and I understand why they definitely do feel different from a wefted cab. But for me it does take some getting used to because they just really kind of hug the head. I also tend to have a little bit extra room up here in the John Randle, fully hand-tied caps, this one. No, I don't have as much extra room. This cap actually feels really snug, so I would say that this cat may run small. That'S the way it feels to me. It feels pretty snug on me and my Christi. I have a lot of extra room here and I just had to sort of live with that. I also have Kate Cameron, which is another silly hand tied cap. Again, I have a lot of extra room, so I think this cat runs a little small as well, so this color shaded peach. So I like that you've got the color codes on here, because it really helps you understand what the colors are. So we've got a 30 and a 27 with a four root, so this is rooted very, very much a shadow root. It is not an overly dark root for the color and it isn't too long. So I think the rooting is just perfect and then you've got the 30, which is a light Auburn and then a 27 which is kind of more of us like a strawberry blonde. But this is definitely a brunette. This isn't a blonde. It'S a very, very light. I'M not a very light I'd say it's a medium Auburn that it's just really pretty: it's not overly highlighted so for my brown haired girls, who, like a little lighter of a brunette who don't mind the Reds, I think that this is a really great color. I love it, I'm so glad I have it. Let'S take a look at the cap, so you can see that discoloration there were that, where I put some of the foundation and I just painted on with a makeup brush, I hold my finger over the part so that I can see through the monofilament kind of Where that parts going to show up, because otherwise it's hard to and then I just take the brush and I put some of the foundation on then I flip it over. I put my finger over where I just painted it and then I kind of go over it again. I don't put more foundation on until I feel like it's kind of you know been smooth in and then I may need to take a little bit of a washcloth to get any off of the hair fibers that may have gotten on it. But that's the technique that I use to put foundation on a part. You can also use silicone tape, a medical tape that is flesh colored. I'Ve done that as well. So here is that monofilament and the lace front I'll show you that least, when I'll put her back on. So you can see it and then, if you've never seen a John Renault fully hand tied cap, that's what it looks like. So there's no wedding, and what's really awesome is right in here. That'S what it looks like so instead of West you've got this almost transparent mesh and you can see through it now what that means is when the wind blows, you do not have to worry about. West, showing the wind is just gon na make it look like your hair. It'S it's great, I'm! So in that sense it's and it's that way everywhere in the back. So sometimes people will ask about the density of the hair fibers, because they're worried that if they go out in on a windy day, you're gon na be able to see that it's a wig with a fully hand. Tied cap. You will not be able to tell so that's one huge benefit of a fully hand, tied cap, and then it has an extended nape with Velcro adjusters and that extended that the velvet ear tabs with the metal stays another real benefit of a hand. Tied cap is, if you don't have any hair, if you're, bald um and again, I'm not bald, I'm just going off of what people tell me and what I've seen in reviews um. But my understanding is that it's much more comfortable there softer smoother with Westing. They can be a little itchy on a bald head. Permit. T'S can be a little itchy on a bald head, and so none of those things exist in these holding hand, height caps, so for women with total hair laughs, maybe you're going through chemo. Maybe you have a form of alopecia where you've lost all your hair silly hand. Tight caps can be a real benefit. I personally just find them to be I'm more comfortable in the WestEd ones in general personally, but there's many benefits to fully hand tight. I have her gestures, nearly pulled I'll. You know they're there at the end. I haven't had to tighten like these at all and she is snug on me. So please take a look at my measurements in the description box to see how you compare. I am an average circumference at 22 inches, so in that sense, I'm right at average and she's a little tight around me. I am NOT tightening her at all if you are 22 and a half inch circumference. If you are bigger than that she's gon na be snug around your head. You may be used to that. You know with some just like I'm used to wakes being big on me normally, because all the rest of my measurements are child size. People with a little bit bigger heads are used to Thwaites being tight on them, so it is part of just what you're comfortable with you might not mind. It. Snug wait, you've gotten used to it. Um I rarely have snug wigs, and so when one is, it's a little bit an odd feeling for me, but she just feels so secure. She just clings to my head. I adhere all my wigs with it stays. I don't. I probably would just because it's what I do, I don't think I would need to with this one. I do not feel that she is going to go anywhere she's just gon na stay right where I put her so that's kind of a good feature when a wig is Fitzhugh. That way. So, let's take a look at the lace front um, I will admit genre. No lace, fronts are okay for me, they're, not my favorite, I'm gon na. Do it one more time, just for fear that it might not have focused fully its kind of hit or miss if I can get it to focus right. It'S not a terrible East Front by any means, but you know you can see the knots a little bit. They are fine she's a little dense up here and you know obviously that routing the darker knots are in the front. So it's not a big deal. I think it's just fine, but you know I have seen better way, trucks and other than that I mean the hair fibers feel good. She is on the drier side - she's, not soft and silky. So if you, you know like the really super silky wigs like maybe a chi from renee of paris, is super silky. You know she's not that, but she doesn't feel hair. I mean like doll, hair or anything like that. Um yeah, that's the kind of all. I have to say I haven't worn her yet, but I wanted to show her to you guys. I am gon na work with styling and see what I can do, the more I play with her here, the frizzier she seems to be getting so I think it's likely there's some product um in her future. For me just to make sure she kind of doesn't get frizzy and other than that I mean she stays off my face. She is flat. You know I wish there was a little more lift, but I certainly don't need to steam her to get her off. My face, so that's a that's a great feature and she is tuckable, so the coverage on her I mean this cap goes all the way down. There'S my bio hair, but you can see a lot less of my bio hair on this and most weights I buy so this cap is fit me. I mean it's way down here its way of the base of my neck. This cap is good size in the sense that it's got very full coverage. It'S just really snug and that may be a product of it being a hand-tied cap, they're less stretchy by far than a wefted cap. So I'm not saying that someone who's, you know an average large couldn't wear her. I'M just saying she is gon na fit you very very stuff. So let me know if you have questions, but this has been Lucy part of the John Renault professional line in the color shaded peach. Thanks for watching you guys, hey everyone, so here is shaded peach outside wanted to make sure you could get a good look at this color, both inside and outside. It is a very bright day out here, a lot of Sun, a lot of Sun. So here's how she looks in the Sun - sorry guys my eyes are super sensitive to sunlight, so I'm squinting an awful lot back into the shade she's under an awning. It'S kind of giving you guys a sense of a lot of different lighting out here. Such a pretty color, I just like it a very a lot, a very a lot. Alright guys hope that was helpful thanks for watching
