Introducing my newest wig! This curly hair is going to be in a new hair tutorial soon!
So obviously, if I'm using this wig for hairstyle tutorials it has to be super realistic. That's why I go for full lace / silk top and human hair. You obviously don't have to go so hardcore if you're just wearing wigs for fun, but if you want to really go for it, this is what I got!

FTC: Heavenly Tresses offered a blogger / youtuber discount on my wig purchase.
( upbeat pop music, ), Hey guys, Kayley here today. I wanted to introduce you to my new hair baby. This is my curly hair wig. A lot of you guys have been asking for tutorials for curly hair., And I know I could totally just find somebody with curly hair and have them be my model. But it's really important to me. First of all, in my videos that I do the hairstyles on myself ,'cause, I think it helps you at home picture how to do it on yourself.. I also just like the challenge of making sure that I'm picking out hairstyles that can be done on oneself., But I also wanted just to understand a little bit of the struggle of actually having curly hair and how to care for it, how to style it. How to dry, it. And girl? Have I been really getting into that? I did not understand like I knew it was gon na be work, but it's like a whole new world like totally different., So this wig is from a place called heavenlytresses.com. I am so happy that I found them.. I can't tell you just. I can't, because I have had two wigs that I've had made for me for my channel before this one one is the short hair wig that you guys have seen one. You will probably never see because it went that badly., I'm not here to throw shade or spill tea or whatever the youths are saying, ( laughing ). I just had a really bad experience.. So anyway, I found Heavenly Tresses and I really liked their website. They had really great reviews. I, like the pictures of it like actually on people., So I sent them an email with like 20 questions and they responded to all of them and they held my hand and guided me through the whole process of picking out a wig, and it was finally an Experience that was good and made me feel safe and comfortable. And then pulling this wig out of the bag was the first time that I was like ``. Oh my gosh, yes !'' Every other time getting the wig was like a traumatic experience., (, laughs, ). So anyway, I just wanted to throw that out there to say that. I'M really glad that I had the experience that I did with these guys because girl girl, it is rough out there, finding a good wig vendor. Anyway. So this is one of their full lace units. They have a bunch of different stock options that are full lace, wigs that are straight wavy, curly, whatever you want.. This is the Brooklyn wig, which is like a light wave curl situation. I think it's called a Spanish curl. And I have had it customized to have specific things that I wanted. So some of the things that I added onto it were a silk top. Hang on. Let me back up and explain full lace. Basically, lace on a wig is a really fine mesh that hairs are individually tied onto by hand.. It'S a lot of work, but it makes it look very, very natural. And when it's full lace, that means that that is how the entire wig is.. So I can part this wig at any point and it's gon na look like my scalp, because I'm wearing a wig cap underneath it and because the lace looks close enough to a real scalp which is pretty cool. You know there's no wefts in here or anything that I have to hide.. I enjoy that., But then the silk top that I added to it is literally a piece of silk the hair is injected through, so that when you look at it, it literally looks like a scalp.. So, instead of being able to see like mesh or knots that you would see if you look close up on a lace top, this is very realistic to a scalp.. The only downside to having a silk top is that you can't do a custom hairline on that. Like a really realistic, looking hairline because it just blending problems, it's not possible.! So anyway, I have a silk top up here and then I have full lace all through here. And then, let's see for the wig cap, I did the glueless elastic band method, which I really like.. You have tons of combs in here that keep it really secure. There'S an elastic band that goes around the back like this. That keeps everything really snug right here, so it doesn't move around a whole lot.. So I don't really necessarily need to glue anything down which I enjoy. Gluing. Wigs down is not a fun process., (, laughs, ), And then what else did I do with it? I gave them custom measurements for my wig cap.. What else did I do? Oh, I got it a little bit thicker I got this. This is, I think, 24 inches, I think, is what I ended up getting and I thought it was gon na come shorter because it's curly, so they tell you to order a couple inches more than you actually want, so that you know when it curls and shrinks Up everything's right., But girl, like even with the shrinkage from the curls. This is still super super long., Keep in mind, I'm 5'3''. If you're taller, you know, maybe 24 inches, would be less Rapunzely on you, but this is long Yeah. So I had the density and density basically means how thick the wig is. And I'm used to people like when you order wigs you kind of order, a density up from what you want'cause, they kind of skimp. You skimp on it a little bit.. These guys do not ( laughs ). They were very generous with the density. I got this wig and I was like ,'' Okay. This might've been more than I was bargaining for !'' (, laughs ), But when I got it cut, I had them thin it out. A little bit and then I've actually tweezed some of this out to make it a little thinner. So this is probably closer to a 150 density now, but it's still so full - And I just mentioned that in case you do end up ordering from them. You do need to know that they're very accurate with their density and they're very generous with it. So you don't need to size up and if you do you're gon na get some hair And did I do anything else? Did I change anything else? I think that's. It., Oh the color duh, So we did a custom color.. I sent them pictures of curls that I really liked and they replicated it for me. I really love it.. It is darker than I usually wear my own hair or my short hair wig. The reason for that is, as I was doing, research into wigs in general, I saw that a lot of people discourage you from getting really light blonde curls, just because white hair already goes through a ton of processing and then, if you add all the bleach on Top of that, you can lose the integrity of the curl or the wig just won't last as long.. So I went a little darker, but this is lighter than my natural color and I feel like with the rooted balayage. It still fits in the Kayley Melissa canon and I really love it. So I'm happy and I feel like that's what matters most. ( laughs, ), so yeah, that's it and I've already order another wig from Heavenly Tresses and it is for ( imitates drum roll ). Fine and thin hair - That was my next big request, was tutorials for fine thin hair.. I do have fine hair, but I feel like I have a lot of it and I was like if I have something that's legitimately kind of on the thin side. It'S really gon na force me to be more creative and anything that makes me more. Creative, I think, is a good thing., So I actually ordered that a while ago. So hopefully I will have it soon and I'll be able to start working with it and posting more videos along that route as well., And that is it for today's video. I hope you've enjoyed it and I will be back on Saturday with another hair tutorial. I'll see you then ( imitates, kissing, ), bye, (, mellow, music, )

Kappelin: I've been wishing for curly hairstyles for so long, so I'm super happy about this wig! I love that you're doing different wigs to more accurately do hairstyles for a wide range of your audience. Not many other youtubers would go through that trouble (and cost)
Amanda Woo: If you could get a dark/black haired wig then that would be perfect! People with dark hair know the struggle of not being able to see a beautiful braid that you worked soo hard to do. PLEASE DO THIS ONE !
jade wood: That wig is looking fabulous girl!!! Would you be able to do a how to properly apply a wig video yours always look so real and I would love to be able to properly apply one when the time comes to wear one. Also would you consider getting a dark wig or a wig with a length of a bob or shorter to show how you would style it. Your videos are always so clean and concise and easy to follow your videos are such hair goals! x
Jillian Danielle: Hi Kayley! I have naturally curly hair, and it is so refreshing to hear you speak about the challenge of styling curls!

Sarah Waldroup: Really excited to see your curly and fine hair tutorials! I somehow have both of those hair types depending on the weather
Sara Grey: I love that wig! Although I would have loved to see one with even more curls. My hair is extremely curly and I literally can't separate it without looking like a lion I was excited to see how you'd manage that but with this wig it shouldn't be so hard. Therefore I'm a little disappointed But the wig looks gorgeous on you, it suits you really well
Michelle Byrd: My daughter has extremely thin hair, super excited to see that wig and the hairstyles you can do!
Patricia Laura: I've never commented before but I have to tell you that I appreciate the effort you put in your videos to show different type of hair so that everybody can find something for them.

Iben Slotten: Fabulous wig! I have curly hair irl and it's at BIG struggle!! Sometimes I just want to cut of my hair!( just kidding, I would never do that)
Taylor Haggerty: This is a BEAUTIFUL wig wow!!
Alicia Aceves Estrada: Thanks so much!!! I love your videos but I do struggle with some hairstyles with my curly hair!! I’m super duper happy!!!
Marine Goeseels: That's really good news, I'm so happy you made to effort to get wigs for other hair types! I have curly hair but it's thin and I don't have a lot of it :p so a lot of good news for me in this video ;) I do wonder if you're gonna take into account that your wig is longer than you expected. People with curly hair have often dry hair (or that's what my stylist always says to me) and therefore it's not easy to have it as long as you have with that wig... So will the hairstyles you have in mind be do-able for people with past-shoulder length hair? :) Also, I don't know if this has been requested a lot, but if everything works out with the wigs, would you maybe consider doing something with dark hair in the future? :) I love every single hairstyle you do, and I try a lot of them on me, but even with my balayage that adds some depth to my brown hair, it doesn't come out as it should. Braids don't have that same 'pop' (though that's probably also because I don't have a lot of hair :p) Anyway, just a suggestion for in the future, but in the mean time I'm really looking forward to your videos with these wigs!!!! <3
Emily: Hey Kayley, love your videos! The next thing I think would be really helpful is how you prep your hair and how to actually put on the wigs. I would love to see that because I'm curious and if I do buy a wig I want to know how to wear it properly. Any advice would help :)
Meghan McGowan: Outside of color, this is literally EXACTLY what my hair looks like and I am so beyond excited to see what you do with this! I struggle with recreating tutorial looks on my own hair and finding styles that allow me to show off my curls. I honestly want to happy-cry this is going to be awesome!
chelsey makes: so excited for the fine/thin hair videos!!
Emily Nakahara: I can't wait to see videos with this wig! also, I was wondering about a really thick hair wig or a really dark hair wig....
Daniele Furtado: I loved this idea about bring more curly hairstyle for your channel, omg ♡♡♡
The Kazoo Queen: YES I AM SO PUMPED FOR THIS. There's so many times I've done a hairstyle and found that it just....didn't look good with curly hair. Now I'll have some just for me. :)
Raisa's Pretty Hairstyles: Oh girl! That wig looks so realistic! By any chance do you know where I could get a shot hair wig. I really love the one you Kayley use in your videos. I need a a short hair wig, because I've been asked to do tutorials for short hair. :) XOXO -Raisa

luvmytapn: Hi Kayley, I am a curly girl who also needs a lighter color wig. Thanks for the review on Heavenly Tresses. Can you please explain more about the difficulty with a silk top? I have never had that before. Is it because you can see the difference between the lace front and where the silk top starts? Do you recommend and all lace wig without the silk top? Thanks for your help. This wig looks great on you!
Daniela ManriqueC: Thank You. we always struggle to find really curly hair tutorials.
Cathyrine D: Please do a tutorial 101 about wigs,application and styling =)
Jade Ervin: Thank goodness! I have curly thin hair lol can't wait
Mackenzie K: Could you do some more short hair updos like simple ones like cool ponytails. I love doing my hair but it is now shorter than my shoulders so it is hard to find cool hairstyles that i like. Love this new wig Kayley. <3
Wheelsnoheels - Gem Hubbard: looks lush on you babe. girls on my channel have been asking me to give a wig ago. I've gone for a short one as my hair is soooo long and i get lots of requests for shot hairstyles. xxx
Flower Child: Ok so I'm actually really in love with your wig! However, I went into the website and I'm really confused as to how it produced such a beautiful looking wig as it honestly seems chaotic and the wigs are shown in black on mannequins and you can barely even see the style of the wigs. Would you mind linking the website here as I can't click in the description and I'm really unsure as to if I'm even in the right place, as it looks sketchy.
AnyOtherUsername: Could you also do a tutorial on how you put on your wigs? I have long hair (and a lot of it too, very similar to yours), and I find it really difficult to hide without lumps and bumps and to actually get it to stay in place.
TheSingingBluebird: Hi Kayley. i love all your hairstyles very much.I have to go to this wedding in a couple of days. I am wearing a gown. Can you please please suggest which kind of hairstyle would look good on it. I have slightly wavy hair. If you could make another video of formal hairstyles, that would be great.
Amber Herrera: you look gorgeous in that wig i have hair like that and it doesnt even look good on me
Amy Tube: can you do a tutorial for super thick hair. Also I love your videos your supre talented. :-)
lily Barr: Awesome wig.
Madikken Emmalie Zelda Thomsen: THANK YOU! I've been crawling this since I found you!
