@Beebearshair review of our Hera 19 | Remy Human Hair Lace Front Wig
Watch Blair's (aka @beebearshair) full in-depth review of our Hera 19 | Remy Human Hair Lace Front Wig in color Espresso 2N.
So now we're venturing into the world of wigs, and Dimples kindly gifted
wig, I wore it a full week. A full week and I'm telling you when I say a full week I mean from sun up to sun down I was wearing this wig depending on if it was a work day or not. I was wearing this wig anywhere between 16 to 20 hours a day.
today so I actually, in preparation for this, when I first got the Now let me tell you, this wig is so comfortable that by the end of the day, I didn't want wig. What am I doing? But that is seriously how comfortable this wig is, and I don't say that lightly at all. Most of the time if I go to work in a wig, and I come home. I rip that thing off as soon as I walk in the house, like sometimes wigs can be a little bit you know, a little bit much. I live in Texas. So, again if you're not from my instagram, I'll throw in some details here for you.
and I'd put a shower cap on, and then I wait a minute, I'm wearing a "...this wig is so comfortable that by the end of the day, I didn't want to take it off. I would get in the shower and I'd put a shower cap on, and then I was like, wait a minute, I'm wearing a wig."
But I'm from Texas. The heat easily reaches over 100 degrees fahrenheit on a
hairpiece is
hear from most of you that's not cold. So, I live in a hundred plus degree weather pretty much most of the year and this The cap construction is so thin, that even with my bio hair under here and tucked in or down, which it's down right now in under this wig. It's just so still, so comfortable, so snug, so breathable, because of the the type of netting, and the hand tied it's just an amazing thing.
Next thing I want to talk about right now is the hair specifics. So, this wig is in the color Espresso 2N from Dimples, and that is the darkest color they actually carry. So, it's really important to me to find a company that carries a solid color piece that is a pretty good match to my bio hair. So my hair is under here. It's a pretty good match. Honestly, if you were to see my side forehead hair here
"...It's just so still, so comfortable, so snug, so breathable, because of the the type of netting, and the hand tied back portion of this wig which it's just an amazing thing."
So this is a
much movement. See that? So much movement you can pin this back, put it up and it's not going to give you
wig so
top or a machine wefted type of
swiss lace front which as you can see here you look very closely you can see that and I think it blends pretty well.
t's also a And this one is called the Hera 19. So it is 19 inches from crown tips. And I just measured it right now to be sure for you all. But it also does have different measurements um so the front is 13 inches, the sides are 13 and the back and the nape are also 13 inches as well. What I like about this wig and being made the way it is, is it kind of already gives you some framing here and some layers as you can see, there's shorter pieces on this hair. So for me, I have two local stylists that are very good at what they do.
I want to be able to wear the piece already as is you know. So whether the company does a cut on their own, they always do face framing or just like this. The way this piece is created on its own. Dimples doesn't do any cutting to it. It's, it's wearable, it's honestly wearable. So i really like the way this piece was created. Because of that all i did was, I just styled it, I took it out of the box. It comes out straight and then I just added some waves to it, combed them out a little bit because I don't like very tight curls and that's it.
So now that I've talked about some specifics of the wig. I'm going to go ahead and take it off so you can see my bio hair and all of its beauty. But so we can also show you the inside of the wig. So here we go, here's my wig grip that I of course wear. I do like to wear my hair down under the wig and I will tell you why. It's because of this cap construction. So like I've mentioned already before, I do wear wigs already. And in a typical wig that is machine wefted, um it's pretty snug against my head, to where if I put my hair in a bun or a braid, and pin it back, it's going to keep that hair flat against my head all day. This piece being created the way it was created with this very nice thin cap does not keep the head flat against my head the whole day. I felt like it kind of just bunched up. So as you can see, it probably looks like I have a pretty decent amount of hair. I mean if I were to button it up, I'd have a cute little bun there but uh my hair thinning centers here. So as you can see, it would be pretty difficult and painful
much.
So that's why I'm venturing into the world of wigs now. But I was finding it very difficult to wear the hair inside the wig because the cap is a bit more flexible
wig that I could tell. I'm sure other people would just be like oh her hair has volume but I knew that it was my hair and it bothered me.
y hair would just slip out of its bobby pins or just end up being on the top, here in a bun just down on the nape of my neck by the end of the day or after a few hours and then I just had this like slight bulging section of the But the hair is a pretty good match to mine, like this Hera is just gorgeous. This espresso color is
But anyway, now to get to the specifics. This is what the part line looks like. You can kind of see my finger through there. Fear not you will not see your hair if you
have hair like myself. You will not see it through the wig, um and then in the front we have this swiss lace. Like I had talked about earlier and it's kind of like in a scalloped type of shape. I like this because I am, I get really anxious cutting lace on a wig. I have messed it up a little bit before and it's scary because once you cut the lace, you cut the lace and that's it. So this is the lace for this wig, no need to cut anything and it lays pretty flat against your head. So if you have hair to make sure everything's completely
mono top section. This is the movable section of hair that you have, so you have this whole section to move around the part line. Mine's right here so it's, it's almost to the end so it's pretty decent section for you to move over if you have a very deep part like myself.
ight and the lace is only forehead to forehead so this really works out for me because I do still have some forehead hair here, a little bit of temple here and when I have lace I always have to just cut off all the lace because I have hair still under the wig. No need to do that here because it stops at the temple and then under here you have the Then here are the ear tabs as well. There is a tiny piece of wire in there that you can kind of move around and bend. I don't need it though it just, it stays
everything that's hand tied. Kind of looks like a net almost. It's a good density though so you're not going to be able to see that. Trust me, I have pinned the hair back before you know and a half up with the clip and you don't see any of
that section where it looks kind of like a net.
"...I mean this hair has so much great movement. You could probably even completely cover up the part line by pushing all the hair back and it would still look really cute."
And here's the hair all the way back wig that is still fine as well.
o you see how cute that is? That looks like layering. I seriously would never be able to articulate this to a stylist if I wanted it. And then inside here on the bottom at the nape of the neck there are these adjustable velcro straps. Like I said my head is 20.5 inch circumference, this is the 21 inch wig. I just wear mine all the way tight with the wig grip. I had to put my wig grip back on under the wigs that way it would stay in place because again, my head is small but if you do not have hair under this So if you wanted to put it back and you're worried you know that there's really nothing much here. wig just to go ahead and leave out when I do pin it back so it kind of looks cute too. And every time I do it, I also swoop it pretty low at my ears so even if I didn't have bio hair, there wouldn't be an issue. You wouldn't even be able to tell at all and it still looks really cute, I mean this hair has so much great movement. You could probably even completely cover up the part line by pushing all the hair back and it would still look really cute.
out and either just leave it out if you're doing a half up half down. Or you can always cut a little bit into it like baby hairs. Like I did. I kind of cut a tiny section on here on each side of the So there's just a lot that you can really do with this wig. I personally don't like wearing my hair up very often anyway um but I do like it's still super cute and stays super well and looks nice. That's always an option. One thing I'm going to tell you right now is, do not have the expectation that the wig is going to look perfect out of the box, and I know that sounds crazy, you just want to get a wig and plop it on your head. This is not the case for this wig. This wig that I'm wearing right now, I have styled it. I have styled the wig. I have changed the part line. When you first get this wig it does not look like it has a deformed- it does not look like it has a defined part line like this. So when I got this wig it had this weird criss-crossy thing that you couldn't
Now, Dimples pieces do have a movable section so I believe it's from here, I can feel it to here, that you can move this around. So if you can kind of see here
I don't wear a middle part, I look absolutely ridiculous in a middle part. Let me tell you, so automatically I knew I had to move it. All it took was a little bit of water, a rat tail comb, and a blow dryer, that's it. Easy easy easy all you need is a few items. It literally took me 30 seconds to do it during my reel,
Now that's the first thing, it's not gonna look right out of the box and that's okay because again, it's something as simple as moving the part over and fixing it the way you like. So please do not get the piece and look at it and think what is this?
Dimples if you see this, I'm sorry. I know these pieces are individually hand tied on here but I had to do something. So for me with this hairpiece it is a mono top, so if you have experience with hair, mono tops typically are more jam-packed with hair. That's the best way
t's okay, it's easy, it's not that scary. And once you do, it'll start looking like an actual scalp here. The next thing that I did after wearing like it had a lot of volume which, that is nice and that is all great, but sometimes when you have alopecia and your hair is thin. I yourself with more hair. And for me having so much volume, and this hair it's also hand tied so it flows and moves better was so scary for me. So I figured I wanted my part a little bit more defined and this is where I'm going to talk about plucking. So Now when i first got this wig it was a bit more dense here that I felt like looking at myself in the mirror in a video. You couldn't really see the part so what I did
So for me, I did pluck a little bit and again I did two or three hairs at a time so
Dimples does state that the hair dries in a beach wave and I wanted to see what that looked like. I personally have been really wanting a curly piece and so I thought this was just perfect for me so all I did was, I washed the hair like I normally wash a piece and I actually used- pull these out. I actually used the conditioner and shampoo that Dimples also sent to me so thank you Dimples. They smell super great. The hair actually I washed it three weeks ago or so and it still smells like the conditioner.
and it comes straight so I did style it myself and I have already washed it as well because
shampoo and conditioner I've actually been using on my own bio hair as well as the wig and these give hair volume. It hydrates the hair, it moisturizes the hair it's good for dry hair, curly hair, wavy hair, color treated hair, all of that great stuff. It reduces frizz as well which in a curly hair piece you want to make sure that you're using products also that work for curly hair. So I like that Dimples did send me those products and I'll definitely be investing in them on my own once I run out because I like it for my own hair
these pieces this But I also did go ahead and straighten it and then put in waves again because I wanted to see if the hair would still hold a different type of style because
"...So if you want a curly piece this is definitely for you. If you don't mind sometimes you want it curly sometimes you want to style it. This is still a great piece for you because it holds up so well."
