Women's Long Wavy Synthetic Wig - 20 Colours, Straight or Side-Swept Bangs

A long wavy synthetic wig built for colour: 20 shades on one machine-woven cap, from bright red and wine red through blue, green and purple to the natural browns, with a long fringe you can wear straight across the brow or sweep to one side.

Key Features

• Twenty shades - The 20 colour options share one cap and one wave, so the stage red and the everyday brown fit the same way.
• Permutable and dyeable - The fibre is listed as permable and dyeable, so a colourist can relax the wave or shift the tone.
• A long fringe, two ways - The fringe is long enough to cut flat across the brow, or part it and sweep it to one side.
• Loose body wave - The wave is set at the factory, so it combs back into shape after a wash with no rollers.
• Machine-woven cap - A woven cap with an elastic nape band and an adjusting strap costs less than a hand-tied base.
• Factory reference - The catalogue code for this wave is 2312WIG80cm, an 80 cm long-wavy reference, so a reorder lands on the same wave.

How the Length Sits

The lengths are long: on a display head they fall past the shoulder and reach toward the waist, and the fringe covers the brow. The wave is loose, so a dry wig reads longer in a photo than brushed out, and the part you trim is the fringe.

Perming, Dyeing and Heat Limits

Because the supplier lists this fibre as permable and dyeable, you can perm it, bleach it and tone it: book it with a colourist who works on synthetic fibre, test a weft first, and expect the wave to loosen once the fibre is processed.

A flat iron still flattens synthetic fibre faster than human hair, so have the temperature tested on a weft first, and dry the lengths with a cool dryer nozzle.

Putting It On

Stretch the cap opening over the back of the head, pull the front to the hairline, tuck loose hair underneath, then close the nape strap until snug and part the fringe where you want it.

For a character look, braid or pin your own hair flat first: the cap is a regular machine-woven mesh, so flat pinned hair stays smooth under it.

Choosing a Colour

The red set runs bright red, wine red and rose red; orange, mustard yellow and yellow are the warm fashion shades; peach sits between the pinks and the oranges.

Blue, sky blue, dark green, sea green and mixed green are the stage shades, dark purple and light purple cover the cool end, and white, dark gray, silver gray, black, dark brown and light brown are the neutrals. Shade names are read off the colour tiles, so compare a tile with your roots in daylight.

Washing and Storage

Wash after every six to eight wears with cool to lukewarm water and a synthetic-fiber shampoo poured down the lengths and rinsed the same way, then press the water out with a towel and finger-comb while damp. Hot water and rubbing the lengths in circles mat a wave.

Air-dry on a stand out of direct sun and store it brushed flat, off a radiator and out of a parked car: a hot car is hot enough to change a heat-set wave.

Who It Suits, and Who Should Skip It

It suits anyone building a character look who wants one cap in many colours, anyone covering grey, and anyone testing a fashion shade at a $16 price.

Skip it if you want a hairline you can part on bare skin, because this is a woven machine cap and not a lace front. The 20 colour options are the reason to reorder this cap in a second shade.
