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!
Sew In type security clips for wigs:
Wig Grip -2 pack
IT STAYS body adhesive is a must to secure your wig in wind or anytime:
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.
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.
CeraVe Moisturizing cleansing bar.. it lasts so much longer than the pump!
Not oil based, but very hydrating.
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
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)
Hi everybody welcome back to tacit sleep posit. This is Taz, I'm bringing you a look at another brand-new style release by Raquel Welch for spring 2019, this one's called free time and it's in the color shaded week, which is SS 1422. So I received this one from here. You wear as a sample piece up for this review, so I can only remark on the sample piece that I have received. I haven't modified this wig in any way I haven't used any product on it. I simply pulled it out of the box, gave it a shake and put it on my head. So it's literally right out of the box free time is a very flattering: layered, curly long style and this color shaded wheat we've looked at this before, and I actually have my maximum impact to do a little bit of a comparison today but you're looking at. Like a medium to dark honey, and then we've got some ash blonde, highlighting in there that highlighting is taken right up to the root of the style, but it does have a medium brown root. I think what I love the most about this wig other than the very flattering style is the fact that this is a hand tied cap, there's just something really special about a hand tied cap. It just feels like I'm in the lap of luxury. Let'S take a look at some of the specs now I'm actually filming in this review before the release of this style, and I don't have a privilege to those measurements yet so I basically just took my own so we're looking at that front layer right here. It'S about 9 inches, I would say, and then overall right around 17 to 18 inches in length, you're also going to find some layers at the crown and the nape and some layering here at the sides and like I said this is a hand tied cap. It'S absolutely beautiful and very natural-looking. It has a lace front temple to Temple and then it has a full monofilament top in addition to the hand tied monofilament base. Let'S take a look at this lace front. So, like the other styles in this color, you can see where that ash pale ash blonde highlighting is ran right up to that lace front. You can part it wherever you like, within that monofilament top and get the illusion of scalp. So, let's talk about the shape of this style. You'Ve got these beautiful bang area pieces that just really hop off of that lace front, like I like to say, and give a really nice flattering contour and then around the face. It has some very flattering: curls. Some soft curl smooth and sleeker and slightly wavy until you get about halfway down and then, as I like to say it kind of blossoms into some of that tousled curl, the layering really accents that curl, I think that's the goal here is for this. Just to be a really special piece now this is made from heat friendly fiber, and you know it has its pros and it's cons. Some of the pros is that it does feel very nice to the touch, and another thing is that you do have some of the styling flexibility, where you can actually take heat to the style, to add a little more contour just accent the current style. In any way, that would be suitable to your preferences. The downside is that there's a little bit more maintenance involved, it does tend to tangle a little more easily. So this is one of those Styles that is probably going to tangle anywhere that it's hitting your clothing. So mostly at the nape, so because this is a hand, type style you're not going to see any permit ease at all in this cap. This style is just supported by the contour and the arrangement of the fiber. It'S a thick style. So there's a lot of hair here in each each fiber is probably of average of medium dinner and that ham type cap is going to give you a lot of natural looks in terms of styling. This is one style that I think I would keep for special occasions. It'S one that you definitely don't want to miss out on, because it is so special, but at the same time it might not be practical for every day if you're on a budget. So this is one of those little black dress events. You know this kind of special occasion style. Does anybody remember the old, rekha, well style called freestyle freestyle, this one's called free time, and I keep getting messed up on that because there was a style - and I believe it's discontinued now, but it was called free style and it just it looked exactly like this One to be honest, and it was made of non feet, heat friendly fiber, and it did not have all of these beautiful cat features. I will go ahead and give you a look from all angles and a walk, so you can just kind of see the movement and the scale last fall. There was a style that came out called maximum impact. I have it in the very same color, that's shaded. We, let's compare that style because I feel like it's really similar, but just much shorter. So here is the maximum impact. So the front pieces here are about the same length so that first layer and they're also contoured in a very flattering way. Kind of away from the face got a little bit of lift there at the front top. Now the curl pattern is gon na, be a little bit different, you'll notice on maximum impact that it's more of a softly tasseled curl, whereas on this free time it appears to be a little bit more deconstructed and separated. So, overall, we're probably looking at about three to four inches longer on the free time than on the maximum impact. This will also show you on the consistency of the color as well, so I'm wearing the maximum impact. You can see the similarities here in the front as it beautifully frames the face, but the core pattern is a bit softer in it's obviously shorter than the free time. So here is a look at this gorgeous cap on free time. It is hand tied so you're going to see a beautifully contoured and very deep lace. Front it's hand tied. It runs temple to Temple. You'Ve got a bit of a seam there, leading back into the full monofilament top. The monofilament top is just a single monofilament. Top very easy to see through to the illusion of scalp, and then you have a mesh covered bit of monofilament here in the back and some supporting wefts back there they're like little there's a little bit of material that covers up a little bit of Westing, but They'Re not traditional tracks, it's hands still hand tied, and it still is see-through. What I also love is the beefy ear tabs. These ear tabs literally give me the best coverage I've ever had on a wig. They come out really far and they encompass the whole front and top of that ear. The adjustments are all nestled within that mesh material. So all the elastic is enclosed and you've got the velvet extended nape and velcro adjusters. This cap doesn't have a ton of stretch. It does run average right out of the box and I did have to cinch it in a lot to fit my petite average circumference for my styling. I just want to give you some inspiration on some updos, and maybe a couple of casual looks as well. I mentioned that the style would be extremely decadent and beautiful and sexy if you wanted to wear it for special occasions, but at the same time, I think that you could really dress it down into a very casual look for everyday occasions as well. So I have here my glasses on they fit beautifully between the ear and the ear tab. There'S no permit ease at all and those ear tabs are not real, thick and chunky. I love to show off lace fronts when you are wearing your hair like this. Nobody would ever suspect that it was a wig, it just looks so beautiful and that hairline is absolutely flawless. I think this would be some amazing wedding hair as well we're coming into wedding season coming up here and just the fact that it's hand tied - and it has all this texture for updos would be amazing. I have a large claw clip here, I'll attempt to do a little bit of an updo just something basic, but you can use your imagination and just get as elaborate as you want. It would be beautiful. This one is just super fun to work with. So on a rainy day - and you just you just feel like you - want to take out a wig and start styling with it and having some fun. This would be a great one to do that. Thank you for joining me today for this review of the new free time by Raquel Welch in the color shaded wheat see you next time on tests. Wig closet,
Comments
red ryder: Thank you so much for your videos, Taz! You’re such a beautiful person inside and out and I’m so grateful for your videos and your presence in the wig wearer community!! <3
Liz Lyons: Gorgeous, the wig and the color. Love the Max Impact too. I would keep it for occasional use so it doesn't fray, just as you suggest. Truly a beautifully made wig and that cap looks as if it has new features. An investment piece. Reminds me of JR's Minka. I am putting this on my list. xoxo
Deborah Luongo: Oh I love that wig. I love the many style options that you offer. So glad that you decided to show the up-dos as well. So pretty just as pretty as a Maximum Impact. :-)
sdraper2011: Wow, that style suits you really well. I think it would look good on lots of face types. I love the large, relaxed curls and layering. Thank you for the glasses report, I was a little worried about those ear tabs but it looks like it's not a problem.
Laci Mendez: You look amazing in all the wigs you show! Love your reviews. Thank you Taz!
molliewongful: Super gorgeous, and helpful, as always. Thanks so much for taking the time to do your reviews, they are sooo helpful ♀️
Diane Johanson: Looks so natural. Love the color too.
SIRA: Wow! Taz, thank you so much for this great review. I was just about to order Maximum Impact when I saw Free Time had just been released. I'm thrilled because this is exactly what I've been hoping for and I love Raquel Welch wigs above all others for many of the reasons you pointed out. I cannot wear rooted colors so I'll be ordering RL14/22. I can't tell you how much I appreciate all of your reviews.
Wear Wigs with Me: Another beautiful style! And a hand tied cap?! Great review Taz!
TIme Enough: I love hand tied caps. This reminds me a bit of Caroline by Revlon...but that has a standard cap...similar style. Very very pretty on you gf!!!♥️♥️♥️
judy kilger: You are so beautiful with your wigs, I think you can wear almost any style ! Thank you for your reviews, you are helping a lot of people !
Marscha: You look absolutely gorgeous! The colour, the length, the natural style of this wig, I’d love to own one one day. But you’re right about keeping it for special occasions. If it’s got hand tied cap, it’s going to be pricey but the heat friendly fibres are delicate. You mentioned that a hand tied cap is very comfortable. Is it a lot warmer than an open wefted cap? Too warm for a sunny day perhaps? Thank you for another great review.
Jackie Marsh: Love the color, and the style is soo pretty Taz!! You look Amazing in her!! I really love her!! Thank you as always for a Faulous review!! Love! XOXOXO!
Deborah Luongo: Soul of this wig on Utah's. Makes me think that I can actually order this. There was so much potential for this wig and possibilities and style. Great review as always :-)
StudioQ: Taz, I love Free Time on you! I do not have any Shaded Wheat. Need to add one of these in the next few months. I also love Maximum Impact on you! These are Gorgeous Wigs! You're styling is INCREDIBLE. Thank You , Taz.
Ashlyns Wig Reviews: This wig looks like its growing from your scalp so beautiful and natural looking on you
D W: WoW this is absolutely stunning✔Thank you for the great review♥️
Sandra G. McAlister: Gorgeous, Gorgeous wig....love this wig!
Sheela lyn: Wow, this one is super pretty on you too!! It looks fabulous!! :)
Jane Boulton: This wig has only just become available on the UK wig websites and is very similar to a Jon Renau style that I have been wearing for some time, so it was very helpful to find your review, especially as shaded wheat is the colour I was thinking of getting. As it is hand tied and more expensive than the one I usually wear I would keep it for special occasions as you suggest. As you say It is a very flattering style and a beautiful colour. Thank you so much for all the reviews that you do. They really helps people decide what they want to buy. We all know how difficult it can be to chose the right wig and how easy it is to spend money on wigs which we later regret buying. Thank you again Taz.
Cathy Woodill: Taz,she’s such a pretty wig and you give great ideas to do
Dana: OMG, that is so cute!!! I have this very wig in the same color arriving today from wigs.com! Can't wait.
Suz: hey pretty lady, love this on you, it looks amazing, oh I wish my hair would grow! :( Free Style is also beautiful and I love the look of the two wigs on the top shelf either side of it, that's my kinda hair! :) Looking beautiful my friend, big hugs, xoxo
Michele KT: WOW! Gorgeous hair!
Dana: Front: 10" | Crown: 12” | Sides: 12” | Nape: 10”
mary allen: Taz, absolutely GOR-G-EOUS on you!! Hope all is well with you. Have a great weekend! Love, Mary xoxo
BABS Lemonade Life: Love the color and style.
ChildofCHRIST: LOVE IT! So Beautiful on you Taz❣ (Like everything you put on) Just wish it weren't HD
Dan C: The handtied cap has sold me! I have been considering Maximum Impact but I think I will try Free Time instead. Have you seen the RL ss14/25 color? I wear the ss14/25 blonde in the regular synthetic and noticed that the heat friendly is available in this shade now. I was wondering if it pulled more red in the heat friendly. I wear rl ss14/22 in the heat friendly usually. You sold me on this style!
shesargur: Taz, you look great in that color! It makes your skin peaches and cream. Makes you eye color really pop!
Janean: Another beeeee-utiful Welch wig! Her lace fronts are the best!
Diane Leveque: Gorgeous!
Jackie Fertik: Like this one in RW the best in her new 2019 line definitely
MichelePearl: Love the color.
Lisa Bulmer: That's a pretty wig. Thanks for the info
Nani Womack: So pretty. I love jones by Estetica, I am going to order it.. now I love this wig too!, My Husband is so sweet, he’ll say were you watching Taza! my answer of course!
Julie D.: Hi Taz! I love this wig on you! I can't believe how natural it looks! I am losing my hair, and have had to cut it short. Would like to try a wig like this for my daughter's wedding that is coming up. I've never worn a wig, and hope to be able to figure all the variables out well before it. I have a very small face and head, and don't want it to overpower me. I am wondering, would you please tell me what a wig like this would cost? I look forward to hearing from you..... ~ Julie ~
Monika's Beauty & Lifestyle: Looks pretty but I think I like Maximum Impact on you more. The color is great. I have Flirt Alert in that shade and love it. Have a wonderful day.
Emily Mosley: So cute! I hate there are not enough large caps to choose from.
Shelly Mac: Beautiful
Jennifer Artz: Love this so much! Is there a beachy loose curl like this but a bit shorter? Not sure I can go that long.
Donna Smith: Hi Taz! She is a beautiful style and color on you. Just beautiful! I was wondering, what are you wearing when you are going over the cap features? I like It because it doesn't look like it has much permatease.. Free Time is beautiful, but too much permatease for my small frame.
Prayer Warrior: Taz, you answered my question about hand tied being warmer or not, but what about versus a mono top, and what about PERMATESE? Isn't PERMATESE just as hot? Thanks for your earlier reply!
Laura Roorda: Hi Taz, I would like to see you show some short wigs, as I can't wear the long wigs. I am having a hard time selecting a wig.
Deborah Luongo: LOL I was in a rush that will teach me to go back and re-read my texts. Some of that did not make sense. Anyway love the wig on you has so many possibilities
MG: Hi Taz, Please help me a bit. I'm a first time wig wearer- because of my PCOS and endometriosis. I'd like to know: do you recommend this wig for évet day? Or not? I'm looking for a Raquel Welch longer, full Mono wig. And I felt in love with this! Thanks for your help, Monika
Prayer Warrior: And, yes like another asked, are these hand tied caps warmer than just mono tops or mono parts?
Prayer Warrior: Anyone know what this EXACT wig would be in regular synthetic? It's exactly what I've been looking for, features, curl, length, but not heat friendly!
A.W: First time here Thought she was Raquel Lovely wigs too!
A Pippin: Gosh shocking you look so different in this wig! Like a totally different person, wow
Brandy Davine: I like this color but I don’t like those icy highlights in the hairline
Sara C: First time buyer. I can't figure out the sites. I would like this one & color. I go to two sites listed & style there not color. I wish this was easier. I have been trying to buy for a week. Should I dm you w this pic? Thank you ♥️
Truckin Along With Kearsey: what kind of detangler do u use
