Women's Short Curly Synthetic Wig with All-Over Tight Curls - High Temperature Fiber, 42 cm

A 42 cm short curly wig spun from high-temperature synthetic fibre, with small all-over curls from the roots down and a fringe cut straight or swept to the side. The cap is machine-made with adjustable straps, the curl is heat-set in production, and the 3 colour options share one cap and one length.

Key Features

• All-over tight curls - Small curls set close together across the cap, the wool-curl look that adds volume at the crown.
• Straight or side-swept fringe - The fringe sits straight across the brow or swept to one side, so one wig covers two looks.
• Heat-set curl - Warm water, a cool dryer and air-drying on a stand bring the curl back after a wash.
• Full head cap - Woven cap with adjustable straps, so it goes on over braided or loose hair with no glue.
• Not permable or dyeable - The fibre cannot be bleached, re-coloured or re-curled, and hot flat irons straighten it.
• Model code - The C-0380 reference is on the box, so a reorder matches the stand.

How the Length Sits

The 42 cm length is measured through the curl, so it lands near the chin and jaw once the curl is dressed, with volume sitting out from the head rather than at the neck. On a petite wearer the curl frames the face, on a taller wearer it sits clear of the shoulders.

Styling and Heat Limits

Finger-comb the curl from the roots outward, then dry on a stand with a cool blow dryer and stop as soon as the fibre is dry. A drop of synthetic curl cream scrunched through the lengths defines the curl.

Hot tools are the limit. A flat iron or a hot iron at the root straightens the set permanently, so restyle with water, cool air and fingers only.

Putting It On

Straps at the nape tighten the fit and the wig drops over braided, pinned or loose hair without adhesive. A woven cap keeps its shape at the parting and stays secure through a full day, at the cost of breathing less at the crown than a hand-tied lace cap, and there is no lace to bleach, so the fringe edge sits on top of the cap.

Choosing a Colour

The 3 colour options run from dark to pale. Dark Brown is the deepest and stays closest to a natural root line. Cool Ash Brown is a muted brown with no red, the shade that photographs cleanest on light and medium skin.

Off-White is the milkshake white in the set, a pale cool shade that reads grey indoors and bright white in sun. With a tight curl, pale options read lighter than the swatch and dark options deeper.

Washing and Storage

Wash after every six to eight wears with lukewarm water and a little synthetic fibre shampoo poured downward through the curl, then rinsed the same way. Conditioner and hot water stiffen synthetic fibre, so keep the water below scalding and air-dry on a stand out of sun.

Store the wig on a stand, curl side up, away from a car or a sunny shelf where heat flattens the set. The curl then holds for a season of regular wear, and at the 42 dollar price the wig is a seasonal buy.

Who It Suits, and Who Should Skip It

It suits women adding volume at the crown without a perm, anyone who wants a short curly look with a fringe worn two ways, and the shopper buying a fashion curl on a synthetic budget: at 42 dollars it buys a season of wear.

Skip it if you plan to bleach, dye, perm or straighten the fibre: the strand will not take colour and heat erases the set. A bare hairline is a second reason to pass, since this woven cap has no lace.
