Wig Review Lantana By Gemtress Syntress Collection Color 6/25

Hey guys so you're here to watch a review of Montana, I'm actually inserting this little piece of video before the review starts, because I want to point out something that I noticed when I was actually watching the review. So I talked a lot about the monofilament on Lantana, because it's a double monofilament and I don't really talk about how deep the lace front is. When I was watching the review, I noticed that you can really see this segue between the lace front and the monofilament in the video I haven't noticed it in real life. I haven't noticed it looking in the mirror, but I do want to show you that, because I don't talk about it when I split the hair in the middle, you can see where this monofilament starts and that's the lace front see what I'm saying is. She has a very good in a very deep lace front when you wear her pulled up. You cannot see that transition. You really can't even see it. I have her up right now and I have just some bangs pulled forward. You really can't see it unless you're. Looking for it, but it is there, there is a definite definite transition between the lace front and the monofilament. So I do want to talk about that. I don't address it in the video because I honestly didn't notice it until I was watching the video like. I said I've worn Lantana now twice and today I've been wearing her for a number of hours and it wasn't until I saw the video that I really noticed that so I don't know that it's a big deal. But since it's in the video you will see what I'm talking about when I'm showing the cap and some other things, I thought it was important that I addressed it. If this ever becomes a problem, I will definitely give an update, but so far I love like. I love Lent and she's just growing on me every day, more and more, and I love this double monofilament. I just don't think you can really tell so thanks for watching guys and continue on to the video, hey everyone. I am here today to show you Lantana in the centrist line and I'm really really excited. This is a brand new line for me, I don't own anyways from this line, so let me just tell you first what I've on so this is Lantana in the colors 625 and that Tana is actually part of the centrist line or the centrist collection of the Gem tres manzanas has a centrist collection when a Tana is in that collection boy. That'S a lot, it's kind of hard to keep track of, but let me just tell you about Lantana, so I'm really excited Liane at the beauty. Nook has been talking a lot about. Lantana and about sin trusts - and you know, she's - had a number of these wigs in her live sales. And when she asked me if I would be willing to try, Lantana and and given an opinion of her, I just jumped on it because who wouldn't want to try something new. But I had seen Stacey's review from wear wigs with me on this wig. And so I thought it would be fun to check it out and see if my opinions of her were same or different, um, similar or different from Stacy. So, first of all, let me talk about this color 6:25. Actually, now that I think of it, I was going to try to take a picture to show you guys of the of the swatch that they have out there on this color. It'S terrible. It makes it look like this. Weight has tiger stripes and it totally doesn't have tiger stripes. It is so well blended, as you can see so one take away that I have with this line is: I think they need to do a little bit better job with their marketing, because I don't think they market their wigs, very well. The picture on websites that sell this of this wig she doesn't look anything like the picture. She'S really cute on, and I just would never have purchased this one based on that picture. I also think the color really threw me off me an assured me that this was a well blended color and she is absolutely right. So this is a 6 25. 6 is a medium dark brown and that's the base and a 25 is a medium golden blonde. So this is a medium dark brown and a media golden blonde blended. So you just get this medium brown. That is just so pretty, but it's not it doesn't stand out. It'S not wild, it doesn't have. You know very visible highlights it's just a wonderful wonderful kind of a sandy brown. It'S a very neutral color. I wouldn't consider this ashy and I wouldn't consider this really warm. I would say this is very neutral. So if you are a brunette and you are looking for something - that's medium brown, not too dark, not too light, not too bold. 6:25 is a great color. Now, let's just talk a little bit more about Lantana and her style. So you can see she is curly on the bottom and pretty straight on the top, so she is a full mono top and she is a double mono top. So all of this could be styled. So if you didn't like the way that she is more straight on the top, you could pull her up in a clip very very easily and look at that monofilament. It'S so great. It just looks like scalp. There is no possibility that someone is going to know that you have a waiter on at all. I mean that you can just do so. Simply. You could also has a great lace front. So if you didn't want to leave some bangs down, you can pull her up in some bangs or pull her bangs up and look at that lace front. It'S so good and nobody would be the wiser. Actually I wore her to work this week and I pulled it up because I'm not used to bangs and it was the first time I was wearing her and I didn't want to deal with the bangs all day. So I pulled her up and it was great. So let me give you at 365 view of this one. Before I start talking more about the cap features. You know, I always wondered when people did this, they turn around. They look at that camera and kind of smile um. My camera likes to go out of focus when it can't see my face or change the color. So that's why I do it so you can see you see how that happens. So you can see how she is a mid-length and she is very, very layered. Tons of layers but she's, not short, and so I think she's just that perfect in between for people who don't really like long, wigs and BIOS but, like maybe chin length, I think she's a really good wig for that and I'm one of those people. I am kind of I like the mid-length more the bob, but sometimes I like a little bit longer just for fun and so she's really good with that. So let's just talk a little bit about how comfortable she is. This cap is incredibly comfortable. She fits me very well. I do have room like I almost always do in always up here, because I have a very petite head, a very petite, but I have an average circumference and so she's very comfortable on her coverage. There, the ear tabs and then she's got this hair that hangs down. So you can barely see my bio hair. I almost always have a lot more bio hair showing and wigs than I do in this one. So the coverage on this one is really good ear. Tabs come down really really low and give me perfect coverage um. I do I just can't get over this monofilament, though honestly I just can't get over it, it's so realistic, and so you could, if you're, not a left-hand part person, you could definitely part her on the right. You know I think these bangs may need some training depends on how you want to wear it. I committed to some weak sisters. I posted a really quick video of this on the beauty of page when I wore it last week and I committed to not doing anything to her till after I reviewed her, because I want you to see how she is out of the box. I may take seem to these bangs just to give a more lift. I haven't decided yet one thing: I've got to show you guys, though, is these the way these fibers feel they're, so realistic, watch this and that she's not adhered so I have to hold her, but you can just look at how i can just run my fingers To her part of that is these fibers and how great they are part of it is the fact that she has no permit ease at all, and so, when you do that, your fingers aren't getting caught up in permit ease. I'M going to give you a quick comparison of this way to my Broadway way to from main attraction so that you can see what I mean, but even doing that, look at how that changed. Her look in some ways this. If you grew up in the 80s, you'll know what I'm talking about in some ways. This reminds me of eighties bangs when you would curl them and then you kind of feather them. Look at that. I don't know, I think that's really fun. So that's something you can consider, I think, there's a lot of potential with this style she's just so light on the head and her movement is so good. So let's talk about the cap, so you can see this is a full monofilament and it's double. So it's got double layers, which can be really good if you don't have any hair at all, because it's more comfortable and less likely to irritate your scalp. It also has this strip of silicone right here, which you can use to adhere, or it might just grip a bare scalp really. Well, I don't think it has much impact on me because I do have some bio hair hair, so there's that it does have velvet or mole skin hair tabs and it does have some metal adjusters in here they're, very flexible they're, not super stiff. It has an extended nape with a little bit more of that silicone on it if you wanted to adhere to the nape of your neck. Otherwise, the rest of the cap is open WestEd, which helps to make this really really cool. I would say when I was wearing it, I didn't feel like I was wearing anything I did adjust the and it does have the velcro adjusters, which I'm so thankful, for I don't like the other other styles, i did adjust them in some. So if you are a solid average, maybe even an average large, I think you would be able to wear this because I have room and I also had to adjust it. So I would say average petite to average large is the safety zone for sure for this um. You know, I think it fits just great. I don't have any concerns about it, so it's so comfortable. Let me tell you about some of my initial impression so when I got her, she had terrible terrible box here. So I did soak her in water and I shook her out. I scrunched her up and I hung her upside down to dry that helped a ton. It really did and so uh I wasn't so sure, and I'm still kind of figuring out. It'S the you know, with the style being so straight here and then kind of blooming into some curls. I'M a little on the fence about that. For me, as well as the fact that she's super super layered, she's, probably more layered than any other wig I own, because the layers go and then she's longer, but I think she's adorable. I really do. I think she's super cute. I'M definitely gon na keep her. I'M just trying to figure out what style with her works best for me. Do I need to seam the bangs. I really really am excited to play around with styles because of this monofilament. This is my first double monofilament, and so that has me really really excited. If you like, sorry guys, I'm gon na get her back to where I know she likes to lay best. If you are someone who loves bangs, you can totally rock the bangs in this one. You might have to do just a little bit of trimming, but really look at that, not a lot at all um. I do think that, because of the layers and the curls, I think she's got fantastic like accessory potential. I really think that you're gon na be able to get some cute Styles out of her. I didn't grab a big clip here. I think you can get some great styling with her because of the layers and the curls, if you just have a few accessories and take a little bit of time. So in that case I think she can be really great. These fibers feel so good. I think you're going to get a lot of life out of her as well. I'M she's gon na last a long time and plus I'm just always a fan of wigs that have a great lace front and give me the option to pull it off my head. I just love that I think that is a tremendous benefit and value. Let me just show you what she would look like with a headband. I love these square bands. I haven't actually done this with her yet so bear with me. Well, I figure out placement. I just think it's so cute the one complaint, if you will that I have about it, so the lace front ends right here, and so, if you're gon na put her up, you really have to be careful and then you've got this like short hair right here. So sometimes, when I had her up, I did have to mess with her quite a bit to figure out how to make this lay. So you can't see where that lace front ends, but so that it doesn't look ridiculous in your face. This may need actually some steaming so that it lays a little bit flatter. So when you wear her up, you'll have the ability to do that, but if you just want to wear her up, but you don't want to maybe pull all the bangs back, you can totally do that and with this mild filament it looks totally real and she Does have the bangs are layered as well, so she does have some wispy bangs that run a little shorter as you can see. So that's really easy to do and you don't need to take a scissors to her. For that. So I mean, I just think: there's lots of potential in this one and I'm really upset the stock photos aren't better, because I think that people are not attracted to this piece because the photos aren't that attractive. So hopefully this gives you some ideas of what you could do with this, and so my my opinion is, if you like, mid length layers you like curly, but you don't like over-the-top curly and you don't want permittees me as a verified, but there's no permit ease Because I don't really feel it yeah, there's not permit ease in her there's, no proof of permit ease. For sure I mean she does she's a good amount of hair and she has some volume but you're not gon na get real big hair. But if you saw my mistake, huh Alden review and I was saying how she's so flat - you can't get any volume this one, isn't that so there's no permit tease but there's definitely some volume here. So I do think you're going find it to be just the perfect mix. If you like a little bit of you know, like you, spelled your hair versus you just kind of comb it down. Let me give you a quick glimpse of how this one compares to Broadway, because I heard that some people think she compares to Finn. I don't agree with that and I do have sin I think she's over there, so I can grab her. I think, if anything, you might be able to compare her to main attraction. Broadway Lisa, that of the wigs that I own now there's lots of differences, but look just hearing out here. So Broadway is a basic cap, big and big difference right there Broadway. It also has lots of permit ease up here. I can feel the poof of perma teeth and that gives Broadway this lifts, but in a lot of ways, aside from that Broadway's, a similar style Bradley has the kind of the bang area Broadway has curls. Broadway is layered, Broadway's shorter and you don't have the styling options but, as some of you know, I like Broadway and I have a few reviews on Broadway, so you have watched my reviews on Broadway and you have said I wish I could wear that. I think it's too much hair. I don't think I can do the permit tease or I just wish Broadway were a little longer. Maybe that Anna could be one plus a lot of people. Don'T want these, this basic cats. They want some styling options. So, let's whip in Lantana back on, so that you can see why I thought there was in comparison. This whole silhouette appeared aside from being broad waving, curlier and a lot more poofy. I think it's pretty similar and then you've got the curls, but you've got the length, you don't have the permit ease and you have styling options because of this monofilament. Let me grab the fin, so I've uh, I played a lot with Finn. I tried to route her. So Finn is I don't know about Finn. I, like Finn, I wish that had been in a different color. So Finn, I've heard her compared to Finn. I don't see it. I just think Finn is in a different class Finn. Doesn'T have the curls she's got more waves, she is just so much more hair she's a lot heavier in hair. She does have a leaves front, which is really good, but she doesn't have any monofilament um, at least not the Finn I own, I wouldn't I wouldn't even put them in the same class. Maybe lengthwise they're a little closer, but that's about. As far as I can consider Finn Finn feels heavy on my head Finn is so thick Lantana just doesn't feel like that at all. She feels so light. I think she'd be so even in the summer, I'm here when it's warm she's comfortable, like I said, there's updo potential, there's even low pony potential with this one because of the density yeah, I don't know but anyway. So this is a long video. So I'm gon na end it here. I will give you guys more information on land, as I continue to wear her, but my initial impressions were - and I'm not sure after wearing her twice now and it's filming this review and looking at myself in the mirror and really studying the wig. So I can explain it I like it, I'm so glad I have it. I think we ants in the bottom of my heart for asking if I would be willing to try Lantana and to give you guys a review. I I it's an unexpected pleasure to have had a chance to try this one. I may not have done that on my own. So if you have questions for me, please ask them comment. I will respond. I respond to all comments. If I miss your comment, I apologize if I get a lot at once. Sometimes I can miss them, but I do try to go back regularly and make sure I haven't missed questions and comments. Let me know what your questions are, because I want you to have good information. I also know these are a little more expensive than some other ways simply because the features are better, they have the double monofilament, they have really great hair fibers, and so I think that you know this is more premium, but with that I think you'll get a Better way, so thanks for watching you guys, I hope this was helpful and please let me know if there is anything that you'd like to see in future videos, because I keep a list and I like to try to do things that people would like to see Because I'm making these for you not for me thanks, you guys have a good day, hey guys. I thought I would add a little look at Lantana up in a click. So, first of all, I put her up in a clop clip right here. Look at that double monofilament, so realistic, and then I put her back in a clock clip here and I lifted her up fairly high. I think it looks fine so thumbs up to Lantana being put in an updo like I said she would be, and so one more style for this one. Thanks for watching guys.
