 Hi guys, it's Monica. I'm gonna share with you sort of a comparison video on One of my all-time favorite wigs and that is Raquel Welch's editor's pick now I've had my editor's pick for a number of years and most recently I was gifted from a good friends of mine a Editor's pick elite. It was a birthday present and I was like Over the moon and I was like so totally shocked and so totally surprised. I couldn't I couldn't believe it Anyways, I love my editor's pick and the editor's pick that I have both of them are in the color Shaded cappuccino on my head. I have Raquel Welch's flirt alert in shaded bisque now or is it shaded bisque? It's one of those two shady bisque, and I think I I Love flirt alert. I have flirt alert in a different color as well, but I bought this from a wig sister It was used gently used I bought it because I have been wanting for the longest time to try this color So I've had this probably for about maybe even a year now I don't wear it in real life because it is way too light I think I've won it maybe on two or three videos my husband hates it But I kind of like it. So when I feel like just being Kind of you know sassy a little bit, you know put this on type of thing So I really like this color. It just I agree. It isn't me if I walked into work like this everyone would be like What happened to her? She's off a rocker or something, but anyways, I have two Editors pick I'm gonna hold them up so that you can see them and Both of them are in the color shaded cappuccino. I Mean they're pretty darn close You how how would you even know which was which by looking at it? Would you I know I wouldn't So I don't even know right now which is which I'm gonna take this one off the the head and see which one this is and This happens to be the elite Editors pick elite. I'm gonna show you the cap difference So you can see this is the only way I would really know right is by having the cap You can see it's beautiful hand-tied cap Beautiful monofilament lace front. I think that Raquel Welch's lace fronts are absolutely Exquisite so I love love this wig. I have worn this a number of times I often times will wear this and pin it up and I'm gonna show you my original editor's pick Take it off the other mannequin Even though this is old This is held up remarkably well. I granted. I don't wear my wigs every day more often than not in in my day-to-day life I'm wearing a topper or I have a fake bun on my head or something like that and every now and then I'll put a wig on special occasions But I have always always loved Raquel Welch's lace front I just think that they are the best so this is my original editor's pick you can see the lace front You can see the monofilament. It does have permatease a lot of people have complained Various points in time about Raquel Welch having more higher density fibers and a lot of fibers and having permatease I find the permatease. I like permatease a lot and I wish I could find that perfect pairing where you have a little bit of permatease and Lower density fibers because I think for me anyways That would be a less of a giveaway for me to go one day with my bio hair and then the next day with the wig Everyone obviously knows so I wear this one an awful lot. I really like it interesting between the two interesting between the two is Slight difference at least on the dimensions that I have seen I haven't measured any of this myself, but a slight difference in the size Editors pick the original one has the front bangs about four and a half Which for me is the perfect perfect length the crown says it's ten and a fourth ten and a quarter I'm sorry the sides are nine and a quarter The back is nine and a quarter and the nape is six and a quarter and the weight is three point 25 ounces in the original Now of course the original doesn't have the hand-tied cap, so it is going to be lighter And it's got the nape It really is pretty I love this wig now when I look at the new one the elite which significantly Has a significant price you don't price has a significant price increase obviously because It has the hand-tied cap so the elite features a lot of the same things as the original It does have that temple to temple share lace front and Then it does have a monofilament top But this one has the hand tied and the hand tied basis really is a hundred percent hand tied I think there's less permatease in this, but I also believe That there's a lot of volume a lot of volume in this and this is interestingly enough Shorter than the regular one the crown here is ten the sides are eight The back is nine at least from what I could see and the nape is six and a half Compare it again to the crown of ten and a quarter Sides nine and a quarter and the back nine and a quarter So the crown and the sides the sides have the most significant difference being shorter in the elite and Longer in the traditional one So the elite is heavier as well. It's three point seven five ounces where the traditional is three point two five however I'm gonna take this one off. I know it looks scary However, when you put this on I think it works perfectly. I'm gonna just gonna slip it on Yeah, I mean it just I Just slip this on I I Don't know what the back is looks like I I Just know that I could slip this on and really not worry even though It has all this here. I Love this. I love love love editors pick So editors pick to me the elite is fabulous even though it's heavier We're gonna probably be going camping. I'm going to bring two wigs with me And editors pick is gonna be one of them just in case Jerry and I go out somewhere special Go to dinner somewhere and I might want to be Really in pretty hair so I'll probably bring this one and This one again This is flirtal art and shaded biscuit. We'll have to double-check that I Like this one too again. This is old but I love it and my original editors pick Oh my gosh editors pick is the first week I fell in love with and I said I've got to have that I've got to have it and I was thrilled when I got my my first one And I was thrilled when I got this one as a gift So anyways, if you are on the fence if you're really curious and you love editors pick If you see it on sale, don't be afraid of the volume of hair, you know, you can always thin a Wig if you really want to I've not done anything. I've not thinned. I've not cut these again have the bangs are over What for four and a quarter? I love that. That's the perfect bang length for me If the bang is shorter than that, it's hard for me because I have Along from hairline to chin is nine inches and around my circumference is 22 inches So I have a long face and I have a broad face So if you have a shorter face and you have a thinner face These will look longer on you than they do on me because mine's broader So it brings it out more and holds it up. It's really good to measure your dimension So you know how something will look in you, but editors picks got to be hands-down true favorite and you can catch these on sale I I am You know or someone's selling one privately if you feel really comfortable with whoever it is But you can catch these on sale or on clearance and a wig studio one often has Really awesome things on clearance including these kinds of wigs. So Raquel Welch editors pick elite Shea de cappuccino Editors pick traditional the original I should say shea de cappuccino a slight difference This one is shorter this one is a little bit longer not all that much So this one is lighter and this one is heavier, but it has that hand-tied base so You have a hundred percent hand-tied base. It is going to be heavier. It feels super comfortable on me This cap size is average. You can cinch it in or out if you want my my 22 inch circumference This fits perfect on it if I go out. I don't have to worry about the wind blowing I don't have to worry about what's showing and if I want to pin this up I most certainly can do it now I'm going to do a spin even though I have no idea what the back looks like and I'm going to enclose some shots from the outside just so you can see it in the natural light I love love love this way. Thank you so much for joining me and stay tuned for the natural shots And I will see you in my next video
