SPECS ~
Wig Features: Partial Monofilament, Creative Temple to Temple Lace Front, Heat Friendly
According to Google Trends, "Dalgona coffee" has become the most searched type of coffee worldwide, overtaking previous highest peaks for all other kinds of coffee (The Conversation Newsletter, 2020). The coffee is prepared by taking equal parts of instant coffee, sugar, and hot water whipped in a creamy, caramel paste added on top of a glass of milk. Dalgona by BelleTress has a broad left side part mono and temple to temple lace front that lets you confidently experiment with off-the-face styles. Modern, edgy, and texturized wavy curls and amazingly silky, soft, and luxurious fiber is what makes Dalgona everyone's favorite with the same Luxurious BelleTress fiber.

Jill, I just can’t thank you enough for doing this. I learn something new each and every time I watch your videos. You are so knowledgeable and interesting. 😊😊
Aww...you are so kind! It really means a lot to know this, so thank you for posting! ❤
Jill- you are THE best styler out there! Looks gorgeous as they all do. Thank you.
You're so right about it being a journey. I've spent so much money looking for the right wig. I have a very large head and an average wig fits me like a ball cap. Luckily, I do have enough hair around the perimeter that I can pull the sides and back out and it all blends in as long as I keep my color up. I'm getting more gray by the day. I wear Human hair. It's expensive but it's the only thing that makes me feel like me. This one is so very pretty and I wish I could give it a try, but I already know what the outcome will be. It looks amazing on you!
As always I appreciate your basic explanations of everything, you have been instrumental in my journey to find options and discover confidence. So grateful Jill.😘🌸🌸🌸
Well this makes my whole day knowing this. ❤ I am honored you watch, and so happy you find them helpful!
I purchased the Dalhona 16 handtied in brown sugar sweet cream bc of you. I can’t wait to receive it!
Looks gorgeous on you Jill. Jill my hair is thinning, I don't know if it's my age, my medication, or the radiation I had for breast cancer, regardless of the reason it thins more every day. Because I have watched you for some time I know wigs can look natural. That gives me hope I can do something about my problem without looking "wiggy" I love this style and all you do with it, however, it's a little young for me. I do want to be in style so I will be on the search for a wig or topper. Thank you for letting us know there are things we can do to help us feel better. It may take me a while to find something that is not too dense and that I am comfortable with but I will let you know when I do. Have a wonderful day Dear Jill.😊
Love how Beautiful you look in these wigs!!! You really know how to style them! Have a great day!
Jill thanks for the tip on the wig grip! It’s exactly what I need for my small head! I used to cut the width of the Milano grips. Just ordered this! ❤️
Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do!
Hello lovely Jill, I always enjoy your wig chats. You do such a through job on explaining the details. This BT in the BBB is gorgeous on you. I love how you give us your styling tips. I wish BT would make their wig with smaller size caps, so I could enjoy them. I always enjoy the modern and up to date style they bring out. Thank you for your thoughts and impressions on this wig. May your day be beautiful. XXOO 💜💜💜
Hi Jill, I have to say that I love the way you styled this! It looks gorgeous on you! And as usual, I learned a lot! Thank you!👍
Hi Jill, I’ve been recommending a very similar wig grip by Indigo Exchange, I’ve bought a couple and it’s the only one I use when wearing a grip. Love how it tapers and is much thinner at the back. Love this wig too, I don’t have any Beltresse wigs yet. Ps you’re looking very slim, your Keto sure is working xx
I followed you for using It Stays!!!! Takes practice but I do love it!!!!
Hi Jill, thank you for all your "wig wisdom," that you share. Very nice updo (1/2). Prayers to you and your family!
I have this in brown sugar sweet cream and I really love the style. I've styled it so many ways. I've even worn it in a half up top knot! My only complaint is the fibers really do recoil if you comb it too hard.
I also love Belle Tress. I have both colours and they are almost identical except (and this is a big except for me) Rootbeer has a medium brown root whereas Butterbeer has a reddish pinky brown shade to the root which I really don't like. Otherwise, the colour of both are beautiful 💕
How can i order
@@ssenait I order from NameBrandWigs. They have the best prices and are very helpful and friendly. You can find them online and are very reputable. Wishing you the Best 😊
Looking forward to seeing your review or chat😊
That wig is beautiful on you. Thank you for the chat.
I love Belle Tress toppers and wigs. However I can’t keep them looking nice for long. Jon Renau HF seems to be easier to manage in my opinion, but Belle Tress does look so realistic. You look gorgeous in all your Belle Tresses.
Beautiful, as usual, Jill!!!!
ALWAYS GREAT VIDEOS!!!
THANKS FOR HELPING US!!! ❤️❤️❤️
You are so kind! Thank you Debbie!! ❤
You are so thorough, so helpful! You look beautiful in all of them! So creative!
Beautiful on you Jill!!! Thank you for the grip tip!!!
Thank you, Donna!.... and you are welcome! 😄
I love how you style your wigs! You're so creative and it's great to learn from you all about the style and quality of the wigs you wear! Thanks so much for your interesting insights!
Jill, you make styling look so easy. The wig is beautiful and the color looks perfect for you. So, so pretty. I always learn some things from your reviews. Thank you and appreciate your sharing your honest opinion whether it's face skin care or wigs. Sincerely hope you are feeling better and look forward to seeing that sweet smile. Rheta
Wow! Gorgeous. One day I will be able to afford this wig🙏
Jill, thank you so much! Very nice presentation and you look amazing! Your talent in applying makeup is unbelievable! And you are so beautiful and make every wig look beautiful. You look younger and younger every time I watch your presentation and your complexion looks like perfect porcelain. How do you manage that? You are an inspiration! I would love to try Dalgona, but I doubt it would fit me..
Jill, you do such a marvelous job at reviewing wigs. I especially appreciate your take on colors. I cannot wear an ash tint. This wig is beautiful on you, but I thunk for e its too bushy and a long wig would not be my choice for my age.
You look great I’m that wig! I think it actually makes you look even younger!(if that’s possible you already look 25) I would be like you I would need to either wear a wig grip or the stay stuff! Lol. Good show! I adore you! I am yet to buy my first wig or topper, I have researched forever, but your videos are the ones I gravitate back to! Thank you!
Jill TEACHES us all to NOT to be AFRAID to make our wigs “OUR OWN “ ♥️ style it for…
YOU. ‼️
You are so kind… thank you for posting such a nice comment. I am honored you watch! You are right… make it YOU! 😃❤️
I get the mono comments; BT is a bit heavy on that. For smoother style all lace hand tied real hair is the way to go. I’ve worn both for 10 years and I would go for synthetic every time because I don’t want to keep styling hair. Wooly.. that’s the perfect word for what it feels like. I would treat yourself to a human hair topper and have it cut colored and styled to your liking. I tend to do toppers only in the summer and full wigs all other times. I wear a headband and always wear my hair up when it’s hot as I cannot stand the fibers touching a made up or sweaty faced me. I use the steel claw clips - to me they are more secure, the claws are wider apart and allows you to style easier when your style is already in place. (Tendril pulls and loosening a perfect updo).
Love your videos, wig looks stunning on you.
Thank you! Appreciate you tuning in. 😀
Oh! I didn't know you had an Amazon section! Cool!!! Thanks! The wig looks great on you! It's funny, stuff that looks good on you usually looks good on me. :)
Looks so natural and you look beautiful Jill
I have every kind of wig grip and find different ones work best for a particular wig. I do use It Stays sometimes but I don't like the powerful fragrance it has and the fact that it is so sticky and takes a lot to get out of my hair. That said, I like BelleTress's styles -- truly varied and innovative, and their color selection is great. I don't like side part mono, so I would favor their full mono/lace tops and agree with you, a hand-tied cap is not my priority. The only problem I have with BT is the fact that I have a slightly petite head (
Hi Liz! Oh gosh....I just wet that part of my hair over the sink after it's off and It Stays come out quickly....I just brush it back in a ponytail after. ;)
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy I do exactly that too and I don't know why, but it leaves my hair stiff and clumped at the hairline and requires a lot of rinsing. But, for something like Top Billing, it is a must so I live with the minor inconveniences.
@@LizLyonsPhD oh true! Yes it does do that… kind of crispy gel in there. (When I don’t actually get it out all the way). I just slick it back in a ponytail. It looks a little like I used some gel. Haha. 😉
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy Yep, I do exactly the same thing. In fact, I usually wear my hair in a ponytail when I am not wearing helper hair. Mine is like yours and it just seems easier to keep it back!
Interesting! I was trying to find someone dealing with a very frustrating Criss cross part and found your video by accident. Also thought the same about the denseness at the mono part. I'm new to this so I'm glad to hear these aren't just newbie issues! :)
Have you tried Alva by Estetica, I just ordered my third and this time in Silverstone. She has beautiful fibers!
Thank you for your review. My experience with Belle Tress wasn't great. Fibers gets tangled its impossible to wear them.
Hi Christina! On no...that's not promising. I will follow up once I have lived with them a bit longer to see what I find regarding that. ALL synthetic fibers will do that, and the HD fibers are notorious for it. I think if one is new to wigs, seeing that happen before your eyes can be really disappointing to say the least. I know my expectations have had a huge adjustment w/ them, and with that said....I do know that I can extend the life of these fibers through washing less, use restorative sprays and detanglers more regularly and alternate pieces often. Wearing the same HD style daily without alternating them will reduce the time they are with us. Ha! ;) SAD fact, but true. :(
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy thanks for your kind replay. I am talking about a brand new wig inside the box. I could never wear and I never will. That tells how bad it is. Thanks
Hi Jill that looks so so pretty on you great video I have this very same barrette .... you are looking FAB! I did a review of Shakerato in Roca margarita blonde and Dalgona reminds me of that wig. Hmmmm I may spring for this one! Happy Summer
Agree with you 100% on the monofilament being too dense. I think this is a mistake most manufacturers make.
I LOVE BELLETRESS THE MAKE THE BEST WIGS! BUTTERBEER BLOND IS THE BEST COLOR !
You have my favorite wig grip! It’s the only one I can wear!
Such a pretty style !
It truly is! ❤
Love love love this wig!!
AndA
Absolutely love it 🥰 In fact, I have the same wig same color! Never have wore it yet! I tend to pull one out and use it till I have to wash it! I am awful! lol But now after seeing it in you … I intend to get it out! The length in back is long for me so since it is so hot out might try a low ponytail? Love your loved this Vlog ! 🌈🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️😍
Love your wig chats! Hope you are doing well-you always do such cute styling!
SO happy to read this. I appreciate you watching them, and thrilled you find them helpful! ❤
You look like a college kid with your hair, outfit and makeup. Very cute!
That was fun!
Yes, monofilament is our friend!
Looks so pretty on you!
Looks beautiful!!!
I haven't checked but do you do any makeup tutorials? Id love to follow how you get your eyebrows done so nicely. I'm a naturally dark blonde and I have light skin with blonde eyebrows and they're also very untame. I've bought so many eyebrow pencils to try and Im still not there yet. I really like your eyebrows the color, shape and all. Can you recommend the color and brand you use if anything? I would be so grateful. And wow I love that cute thing you just did with your hair! Im always looking for "easy" little creative things. My natural hair is a lot like this wig, so Ill have to try that.
Hello! Yes, I have a lot of makeup tutorials. Here is a link to the Playlist....The newest will play first. ;) czcams.com/play/PLzAZ9S8F8pDQUMI374jZxQDq_pouEST1I.html&si=yGrUQwG7Rod-n8Al
My iPad decided to put the type keys in front of what I am typing! I type blind have the time! Sorry for all the typos and Ooops!
Hi… love this! I am afraid of the heat friendly fibers… how wearable is this as an every day wig
Yeah, but you have to buy and send back a few to know all that you are talking about. Is Belle Tress and the Retailer ok with the journey being 4 exchanges to find out? Because I had Chemo and only could get 1 wig, researched for 2 months, ordered, got a wig that was not what was portrayed (defective) and WigStudio1 would not exchange it. Even when I said I would pay all shipping and re-stock while just having them exchange for another wig. They said, “No” Like they were trying to get rid of used up, defective wigs.
Love this style Jill are you going to pluck the part? I'd like to see what it looks like plucked 🌸
Hi Clara! No, I never do that. I just live with it. ;)
Hi Jill ~ I'm trying to decide on my 1st wig and have a question (apologies if you've previously answered it). Why do wigs come with a criss cross part if you have to take it apart? From a distance, it looks fine to me but does it look really weird when you see it close up? Do you ever keep the criss cross part in? I'm hoping I can find a wig that looks half as good on me as this one does on you!! Thanks for your info about the part, too!
Would you pluck some fibers from the part?
My friend plucks her wigs. Have you tried it?
I wish they wouldn’t make the rooting so dark! I’m a natural blonde and the dark roots look terrible on me! There are thousands like me who complain about it, but few wigs offer paler rooting. 😪
It's all trial and error and it can take some time and money before you discover what really works for you. Luckily for me I like pixies with a fringe (bang) so lace fronts are not important to me but low permatease and a stretchy airy cap really are. I never ever wear wig grips - its Irish sock glue (same as It Stays) for winter and Wonder Lace Bond for summer as its more resistant to perspiration.
How do you find a wig with low permatease?
@@DarlaPinkerton Personally I enjoy the Jon Renau O'Solite collection - budget friendly enough for me to be able to replace every three to six months. Look for wigs that are low in weight - the less permatease the lighter they tend to be.
Hi Jill , thanks for this gorgeous video.
I’m wondering why synthetic wigs, including all good brands, become fizzy at the nape of the neck very quickly. Are you having this problem too?
Have you tried the hand tied version?
Hey there girl love watching your videos a question please if you get a wig and in the crown you see the wefts showing thru is this a poor quality wig 🤷♀️
Jill love this on you, however, too long for me. Can you recommend a shorter version..any brand. Thanks
KNOW ONE can tell you how a particular wig will look like on YOU ‼️ It is a TRIAL & ERROR for us all… I started this journey in 2010 😉
Great video. I have dalgona 16, single origin and caliente. I cannot rake or even comb thru any of these. All they do is snarl and tangle. Ugh. I just love all 3 but im not finding them so easy to wear. Whats the secret? Help. Taz says Rake n Shake but that hasnt worked either.
Hello SHannon! ALL synthetic fibers will do that, and the HD fibers are notorious for it. I think if one is new to wigs, seeing that happen before your eyes can be really disappointing to say the least. I know my expectations have had a huge adjustment w/ them, and with that said....I do know that I can extend the life of these fibers through washing less, use restorative sprays and detanglers more regularly and alternate pieces often. Wearing the same HD style daily without alternating them will reduce the time they are with us. Ha! ;) SAD fact, but true. :(
You look beautiful !
Thank you!
Like the hair style but not the dark roots
Jill, my head is completely flat in the back. I have to pin the wig everywhere and it does not feel secure at all. Can I glue it in the back too. My bio hair is short so there is nothing to hold it to. Appreciate your input
Thanks
Janice
Yes, you can. I did that in the beginning of my Wig journey. ;) The only thing is if you sweat the It Stays may never actually set up all the way....so it may slide around a bit, but it holds better than nothing used at all. I also shave my nape and use wig tape to secure the back. Just know if it sticks to any hair it will hurt when you pull it off. The It Stays does not hurt at all when you pull it away. Do you have any hair at all back there? I know some people do sew those combs back there, and they can slide it under a little hair back there and works well. Maybe back comb the hair a little and hair spray it back there and then try using the combs? May sew one in on each side? I have been tempted to try that myself.
@@JillLynnBeautyTherapy I was waiting to see if It would be ok to use the tape. I can shave
The nape of my neck or try the combs but I think the tape will feel more secure for me. I just bought it stays. I have no bio hair in the front and it goes back at least 1 in. maybe 1.5 in. I'd like to get a topper but most of them are long or longer than my hair. Thank you for your suggestions and I look forward to watching you on You tube. I'll let you know how it goes.
Enjoy your evening.🎯
Could you recommend a goood serum for dry skin? My sisters and I are on the hunt! 🌹❤️🍄
Hi Angela! I highly recommend simplicity. Nourishment and hydration have been my supporters along this aging road. ;) I recommend a good essence, or hydrating spray followed by (while still damp) w/ a good oil blend serum. Pat in and follow with sunscreen for the day, and in the PM follow with a good moisturizer that'll protect even further from dehydration while sleeping. ONE of my fave oil blends: INFUSE 7 raproyouth.com/collections/minus-10-moisturizers-hydrators/products/infuse-9 LOVE the HA Hydra Mist : raproyouth.com/products/ha-hydra-mist?_pos=6&_sid=8c743a47e&_ss=r and I have been enjoying Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair Serum in Cream for my PM treatment. www.sephora.com/product/tatcha-indigo-overnight-repair-P474377?skuId=2489755&icid2=products%20grid:p474377:product. If I use it....I go without using the INFUSE 7 and just apply right over the spritz. IF you order anything off the Rhonda Allison site, you'll need to use my code to check out: 9119. It is a professional line only, and that code just means you are a client of mine (I am a licensed esthetician). ;)
The fiber of Belle Tress doesn't last long...like she said great for a wedding but not as a daily driver. The reviewers never tell you the whole truth because they won't get wigs sent to them to review.
Hello! No… this is untrue. I am very honest, and I make that very clear to the company I work with. They actually want honesty, and would not stop working with me. What I meant was is that it would be a pretty one to use as a wedding or event… because it has a lot of styling options. It is heat friendly however, so the fibers are delicate and need babying. Something I always let new to wig viewers know. 😉
Look like not to much hair which im looking for
How did you lose weight?
You look beautiful 😍
I am in my 3rd year doing KETO. ;)
@@normakraft5094 Thank you! ❤
Impressive!
I totally agree w U re dense mono - too dense !
