Jon Renau Fall 2018 - Alexis Wig Review - 24Bt18S8 - Shaded Mocha

Yayyy for the Jon Renau Fall 2018 collection! What do you have your eyes on? A topper? One of their 3 super cute new wigs? What color do you have your eye on?!

Well...I want to share the Alexis wig!

With what they describe as shaggy bangs (I think they're more like sweeping bangs, or however you want to style them...) and long layered waves (a bit more like soft loose glam curls imo), this hand tied double monofilament wig is everyone's favorite style! (It's definitely a favorite of mine!) The 100% hand tied stretch section allows a from front to back and ear to ear stretch. (And so incredibly COMFY!)

Cap Design: Double Monofilament / Hand tied

Cap Size: Average

Hair Type: Synthetic

Bang: 5.25" Crown: 12.5" Nape: 12.5"

Side: 14.5" Weight: 3.5 oz

Shaded Mocha 24BT18S8 is a light ashy brown with medium goldish blonde highlights and medium brown roots.

If you haven't already, you guys need to check out the genre. No fall 2018 collection, I'm having a heyday with this Alexis wig. It'S full theme, hey everyone! Welcome back to fabricating fringe! You guys, I'm sorry for the resolution of this video. If it seems a little less clear than my other ones, I'm actually doing this on my phone, because my typical camera I use is not functioning at the moment. I'Ve been having a lot of technical difficulties as far as my phone goes and my camera. So I did two reviews on the kamila by John Renault and the brandy by amore, and those are on my camera that I need to get off the camera and then and edit it and get them up, but also along with that. All of my photos are stuck on my cell phone that crashed so this this one that's ticking. This video is a new one, one that they replaced for free, thank goodness, but I'm trying I'm working with a company to see if I can retrieve some of those photos, because there's some of my kids and it makes me super sad to think that. Maybe I won't be able to get those photos so anyway long story short. I really wanted to get this wig reviewed quickly, because people have been asking for information on this wig. It'S the John Renault collection, that's launching ASAP! In fact, people are doing pre-orders right now. So I felt like it was kind of imperative that I get this up and as soon as possible, so I apologize if it's not as clear as my other videos, but you know for a cell phone. It'S really not bad. So anyway, first of all, as you guys, probably saw in the title, this is the beautiful Alexis by genre. No, this is part of their Fall collection for 2018 and they have three wigs and two toppers that are launching in this fall collection. So I'll kind of go over those things, but, along with that who's, calling me okay, I'm not out training her guys. So what do you guys think about this beautiful wig? I really love these soft curls, not really beachy. I did try another genre. No wig called the Rachel and it has more of a wavy curl or a wavy beachy, loose waterfall type wave anyway. This definitely has more of that loose glamorous laid to it, and I really really love this wig. Like I said before, this is the Alexis by John Renault and this color is 24 bt, 18 s8, also known as shaded mocha. I have never tried this color, but I got ta tell you. I am loving this shade. If you guys are a fan of more ashy tones, this definitely has your Ashley brunette shade to it, but it still has a little bit of warmth because it has highlights that are more of a golden blonde and then it has a medium brown root. I'M not sure if my phone can get a clear view of this color, but I will sure try to show you guys the best I can the kamila that I will be reviewing. I mean I filmed it like two weeks ago or more this. That color is an almond I'm. Some of you who follow me on social media on Instagram or whatnot may have seen some of the photos and that's very a she. If that's something you're looking for it has an ash brown with an ash highlight. So it's somewhat similar with ash brown, but this is more of a golden highlight with a dark root, a medium brown root and then almond dine 10. Rh 16. Is your ash blonde, with your ash, brunette kind of all mixed in together? So these are two fantastic options for brunettes who like to have a little bit of Ashley neutral tones to them. I always tend to reach for my chocolate collection, because I love the warmth. I love the richness. I love chocolate. Cherry with the red I loved midnight, cocoa, it's beautiful, I love salted caramel, it's very warm and I also love toffee truffle. Those four shades in the chocolate collection are amazing, but I want you know: adventure into other shades in the Burnett family. That weren't, particularly in the chocolate collection and maybe more on the cool end, and this I'm I'm just loving this shape and paired with this beautiful wig I got ta tell you it's just beautiful, so I'm gon na actually show you guys. I turn around cute. I mean seriously, I hope you guys can hear me. I hope my phone is picking up the sound well now I have this kind of parted right here in the middle, but with this wig you can definitely use this fringe on either side like so. This side is just fine as well, but this wig is definitely made for your front fringe if you did want to pull hair back just take note, this is not a lace front. So keep that in mind. I don't know if you guys realize this, but I love the Camilla wig by John Renault and she also does not have a lace front. I have a blunt bang on my old Camilla and a side-swept bang on my new Camilla, which I will put up a review really really soon. Anyway, it's the exact same cap, construction and I have to let you guys know that it is so comfortable if you're. Looking for comfort, if you're looking for that nice snug secure feeling this cap construction is your go-to girl, because it's just a warm hug. In fact, I was telling the ladies at Jean Renault that it reminds me of Olaf with his warm hugs, but instead is sleeved at your warm hug from John Renault. You can use adhesive on the polyurethane strip this on this top, but it's so snug. I have never really needed it. Let'S say I was going to go to an amusement park. I may put some adhesive on that polyurethane strip and the Walker tape. The red Walker tape is a great adhesive for those polyurethane strips people often use them on their Hopper's. As well, people are a little bit taken back when they hear that there is not a lace front on this wig, but you know what they have this folded Swiss lace up at the top, so you still can kind of have somewhat of a part like. I have right here, and you don't have a very blunt edge - does look great still, even without that lace front, those who are toppers are very used to integrating their bio hair with their toppers, and you can also do this with your wigs that have this type Of cap construction, if you like to incorporate any of your bio hair along with that, so if you want it to pull it back, you definitely could pull down some of your bio hair if it happens to match and pull that back as well. Just kind of blend it and integrate it the same way you would your topper, I personally love the front fringe fringe is very in fringe is flowering, it's very youthful. Looking so a lot of people joke, and they say you know bangs or Botox. If you have fringe it just has a very youthful playful young appearance to it. I think the fringe on this is very cute. It kind of just fell this way, but you could part it more. You can have it more blunt. You can have in the middle. Many different ways very versatile and because of these beautiful, beautiful curls holy heck, so many fun styling options, and you know what else these ways will just tousle and hang so beautifully in a side-swept up to because you have your monofilament top up here. You have multi-directional partying and many many ways to style your hair very, very cute, to pull it half up like so, and look at those waves, the way that it falls just a very natural. Looking I'm obsessed with this wig you guys, if you want this type of style, I highly highly suggest this wig. Okay, I'm going to show you guys the inside of the cap, so you have your polyurethane strip. You can use adhesives right there. You have your double monofilament top. This is great for multi-directional parting. You have a very realistic looking scalp, just it's fantastic. It just looks so great. So real, it's fabulous. You have your 100 % hand tied cap and with a 100 % hand tied cap. It moves. So naturally have your hand tied stretch section, so it stretches right here, but you still have your hand tied, hair coming out right there. So it's so comfortable so snug and fits your head like a warm hug. You have your velvet ear tops and your nape, and that makes it very comfortable and then, of course you have your adjustable area in the back to just make the wig fit more true to size for your head. Ok, so I'm looking at my phone, but I'm not looking at like where the camera comes out. So if you guys are like, why are you looking at me? It'S because I don't know where to look what I'm looking on my phone, so hi moving through the area, hi hi, hi, hi, hi, hi hi. This is what Tucker is on him on my phone. I need my camera. I need the camera to work guys, but just needed to be shared ASAP, so you guys can be prepared when it launches or right now it's you can go in pre-order at many different places. This obviously is synthetic its pre-styled. This is what it looks like straight up the box. Every time you wash this beautiful wig, she will have these beautiful waves and look at that shade close that folks. Look at that shade. It is absolutely beautiful to give you an idea of the length the bang on this beautiful Alexis. Wig is 5.25 inches that the crown is 12.5 inches. The sides are 14.5 inches and the total weight of beautiful Alexis is 3.5 ounces. Now I'm going to put Alexis back on and I think I am going to pull her up half way now. I'M really loving Alexis kind of worn with this middle somewhat middle part. I think it looks kind of 70s dish. It'S just very flowy, but I just want to show you how adorable this wig will be pulled up halfway, make sure to not poke your bobby pins in any of those hand tight areas so with this wig. That would mean everywhere because this is hand tied just be sure to bobby, pin, hair to hair and not hair to cap. If you do have a wefted wig, then you can definitely slide your accessories and your bobby pins into those blessed, but not in your hand. Tight areas now look how cute that looks. I'M gon na get my oh, my gosh. Those ways are: react. You lessly amazing, I'm pretty obsessed with this color too. I love it. I love it. I love it. Alright, folks, there you have her. This is the beautiful Alexis by John Renault launching October 2018. She is part of John Rose Fall collection. You also have a long bob named Marion. You have a very, very cute sassy short Bob named Alicia, and you also have their top smart, which is their first lace, front topper and then, along with that, you have your top full synthetic. They do have a full human hair and now they've created this beautiful topper in a synthetic option, which is great for many many reasons, I'm hoping to be able to share a few more of these other wigs and toppers out of this line, we'll see if that Works out, but for now I wanted to show you guys this ASAP. I wanted to show you this beautiful color. It'S called shaded mocha. Take note of that and again the code, for that is 24 BT. 18S. 8. I am in love with this color. You know you guys know me. I like to try all different shades, all different colors from cool to warm Reds, blondes Browns. I haven't really done black black black black. You guys have any suggestions with colors. Let me know Oh another thing. I have not tried because, like the crazy, crazy ones like wild crazy, rainbow colors, which I'd like to explore so anywho, if you guys have any questions about the genre, no 2018 Fall collection. Let me know, comment below and message me hit me up on Instagram. You guys please subscribe and know that if I don't get back to your comments, ASAP can't we have fun, Instagram email me whatever works, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Just know that I'm a mom of five, my life is crazy and I got to tell you these wigs have created so much less stress in my life because yeah I have hair yeah. I can throw out a topper, but if I'm in a hurry I can throw in a wig lickety-split and look done. I can tell you this much. Wigs have been a heaven-sent in my life. For that reason, it's a time saver, a huge time. Saver, obviously, because of hair loss, it's created a lot of confidence. It'S added a sense of peace and contentment in my life, but I am obsessed with wigs now because of how easy it is during mom life. I it's. My life is like crazy all the time. I'M a taxi cab, I'm all over the place all the time, and I think that wigs have made my life so much easier. So, even if you're not dealing with hair, find a wig in your bio hair, color and use it on those days where you are in a hurry and you have no time to prep your bio hair, it's the best advice I can give young moms or moms You have a bunch of kids or one kid at all. You know they take apply time, it'll be your friend anyway guys I got ta go in fact. I have kids coming home from school. One has to go to like a reading thing. Another one has to go football practice. My babies like in his height chart eating and I cut off, but I taught you guys like it: okay, see ya, you

Mod-Planet: Love this wig on you! And the color is fantastic also!

Amanda Scarlett: Thank you! As soon as I saw Alexis I fell in love! Love her even more now.

Diane Coleman: Your makeup and this hair are perfect together. I just ordered a topper in Shaded Mocha... I haven't received it yet, but hope it looks as good as this. Thanks for sharing!

Anita Castelli: I just scored one bwt for 185 2 other colors left! Ebay. Because of your great review .looks beautiful

Julia Schall: PS but also ThankYou for this review she is gorgious on you. You look fabulous darlink! In most brunett shades, and in reds ( loved wren)....blondes too.

PersonalIsPolitical: great! Looking for a non-lacefront wig as I find them scratchy! x

dreamflight6000: Do you prefer toppers or wigs? I'm so tempted to try a wig. I feel like it might be easier for me so I wouldn't have to match my hair color.

Denise D: I'm so glad you explained to others that you have 5 kids and that you will get back to them. Looking lovely and I love your advise and pray to get a topper one day too afraid to start on wigs yet. I emailed you awhile back just in case you were looking for it. Love and Hugs to you <3

whisper whispers: For every day wear would you say this type of front is more longer lasting? I have lace fronts but they are starting to fray. Wondering between this and kaia or camulla for an everyday wig? x

Susannah Wilson: Hey Beautiful! I am binge watching your reviews. Don't know why you "dropped off my radar" as I'm a long time subbie. Maybe I just dove down other rabbit holes for awhile, health topics, other, and you fell off my feed. But I looked up some different wig reviews just now and your gorgeous face popped up, YES, I LUV HER! I forgot how much I luv watching you. You look amazing in every color, style, I think you are an ARTISTE extroidonaire with your makeup. Luv your fashion pairings and your chippy paint door backdrop! AND YOU PULL IT ALL OFF WITH 5 KIDDOS! INCREDIBLE! Anyway I'm very inspired by it all! I am 72 but have a young artsy vibe, I'm a decorator, stylista/fashionista, songwriter, and I'm not giving in to the inevitable aging process without a little push back! Thanks for the time you take out of your busy day to inspire women of all ages to kick it up a notch and have fun doing it. It's obvious that all your wigs, etc are your passion and creative outlet...not that those kids aren't too! I ADMIRE YOU!! Hope you get this, it's attached to an older review, I think!

Christina Knapp: It’s really hard to see this color. Would you say this is an ashy brown with ever so slightly lighter highlights blended very well or would you consider this a blonde shade. Someone just posted a picture of this color on Zara and it was blonde… Like Venice blonde. It’s so hard to tell the colors, but I do love this style on you and all and all the color looks pretty and very gentle

Kim S.: I think my next JR will be in shaded mocha... it is a beaut!

Wiggin' With Christi: Love this on you!!!

DebElle: This reminds me of an upgraded version of vintage vixen by forever young but slightly shorter.

Kelly Villalobos: And yes I love your makeup

Cristi: i need it!!

C: I think it would be lovely on you as a full fringe.

Ruth Hersh: How does the double mono cap feel on your scalp. Is it light on your scalp? I'm concerned that my bio hair won't be able to breath, and I'd be too warm.

Kelly Villalobos: How do you order Jon Renau’s? And are there any other toppers that aren’t so expensive? I’m wondering why toppers seem to be more than wigs.

69indigoblue: Nice wig and presentation...why do have the feel, that this particular one sits very flat on the top of the head with only little no none volume...

Julia Schall: I was hoping you might show Marion as well. It would also be nice to see, because it seems most different from all the other styles. Personally, I am considering her for the straight sister style for my most favorite wig by Jon Renau Mila.

Annie B.: OMG I want to be best friends. Seriously. (With you, not Alexis.) Alexis is pretty awesome too, though.

The truth will make us free n: Is best maya by Envy I do not like this frontal wig It is better with lace front swiss lace
