That beautiful Platinum Blondes that everyone loves is now possible with Jon Renau In Tone Violet Shampoo.  This shampoo controls the gold and yellow tones in blonde human hair wigs and Toppers.  It gets rid of the brassiness and keeps the hair radiant and clean.

 

Jon Renau recommend applying the shampoo to the palm of the hand and creating a lather in the hands prior to applying to your wet hairpiece – the toner is recommended to only remain on the hair for up to 5 minutes – dependent on desired result.  You can tone it to your desired colour that you want to achieve.

How to rejuvenate a Human Hair wig

Posted on by Wigs Online

Human hair wigs can look so real and beautiful.  However, it does take time and effort in order to keep them looking good.  If a human hair wig is cared for properly it should last around 12 months or longer.

Human Hair wigs can become dehydrated after some time and often they become dry and frizzy because they are simply lacking moisture.  There is a very simple way to rejuvenate human hair wigs.  Usually a deep condition to make a huge difference.

Step One: Wash you wig in a basin of tepid water.  Put a small amount of shampoo in the basin firstly and swirl it through the water to dissolve.  Then put your wig in and try not to tangle the hair.

Step Two: Rinse the wig under the tap to remove all the shampoo.

Step Three: Mix some Conditioner and The Ellen Wille Recovery Mask and work it though the hair of the wig. Use the wide tooth comb and distribute the conditioner and mask through the wig.  Make sure you keep the conditioner and mask away from the base of the wig because it can loosen the knots in a mono top.

Step Four: Leave the conditioner and mask for up to 2 hours.

Step Five: Rinse the hair and use a wide tooth comb to style the wig.

Step Six: If you have time to wait let the wig air dry rather than blow drying the hair.

Step Seven: You can  a hair straightener to style as you desire.

What does it mean for a wig to be pre permed?

Posted on by Wigs Online

Angie By Jon Renau – Prepermed, Hand Tied, Lace front and Mono Top Wig.

What will my wig look like when I receive it? You must remember that manufacturer’s will style their wigs in order to sell their styles.  Sometimes a manufacturer’s image will be very different to the actual wig.  Especially prepermed wigs will be styled quite a lot by the manufacturer.

 

Angie_8rn_Alt1

 

Angie  by Jon Renau is just one of those wigs that is pre permed. Pre permed means it has a curl when it comes out of the box and will keep its body after it has been washed.  When you first open the box it is really curly so it gives you an option to straighten it completely or leave some loose waves in it. It has unbelievable bounce in the hair.  The picture on the right is the manufacturers image after styling.  Manufacturer pictures can look very different to the actual product so we like to photograph the product so you get to see exactly what you get when your wig arrives.

I have included images of the wig straight of the box so you can see how curly it is and then images after running a hair straightener through it.  It is entirely up to the wearer how curly, wavy or straight it can be.  It is a great wig with lots of versatility  in regards to styling.

Angie_633capR

The cap features a mono top with a lace front and is 100% Hand tied.  Hand tied means that each hair has been hand tied directly into the cap and there is no wefting.  With a hand tied wig the hair is evenly distributed and gives you the upmost realistic look.  They are more expensive as it is very labor intensive to manufacture a wig like this.  If you run your hands through the wig you can’t see any wefting as there is none.  The first image is the inside cap of the wig.

 

 

And this is the wig straight out of the box:

After using the hair straightener on a low heat setting:

This was the first time I have had time to have a play with a Jon Renau human hair wig and I was very excited about this wig.  It has a beautiful feel of the hair which is remy, and the hair has a lovely bounce to it.  It looks gorgeous with a few long loose waves left in the style.  It is expensive to buy a human hair wig but there is a vast difference between a cheap human hair and an expensive one.  No one would be able to tell if you were wearing the Angie Wig by Jon Renau.

Angie would have to be one of my favourite wigs and it certainly lived up to my expectations.  I was able to style this wig with a hair straightener with very little time and I am not a hairdresser.

At Wigs Online we can order the Angie in for you within 7 – 10 days if we don’t have it in stock. It comes in many more colours.  You can see more Jon Renau Human Hair and Synthetic wigs on our website, www.wigsonline.com.au

Remy Hair vs Non Remy Hair

Posted on by Wigs Online

shutterstock_31326247Remy Hair is a term that we equate for good quality hair when it comes to wigs and hair extensions.  Remy hair usually feels very smooth and luxurious and usually doesn’t tangle easily.

What is Remy Hair?

Remy hair is made very carefully in the process of bundling human hair with all the roots and cuticles running in all the same direction.  It requires many more man hours and careful manufacturing.  Thus it is more expensive than non remy hair.

Non remy hair is gathered together regardless of the length, cuticle direction and roots. It is a much simpler process and less expensive to produce.  It is usually coated with silicone to give it a smooth feel but the silicon will usually vanish in a few washes. So you may not feel the difference initially but the non remy won’t stay feeling as nice after a little while. Hence the price difference between remy and non remy.

Remy Hair extensions and wigs are made from real hair.  Human hair can withstand heat so it is possible to use a flat iron or curling iron as well as other styling tools so you can style to your wigs and hair extensions to create the look you require.  Take note, as much as you can style with heat its best to style on a low heat so the hair will last longer.  Just like natural hair the less processing and less heat endured by the hair will make the hair last longer.

Difference in Double Drawn and Single Drawn

Posted on by Wigs Online

The market is swamped with so many hair extensions at all prices.  You can be forgiven if you are having problems working out why some are so cheap and other are so expensive.  Quality is a huge factor when it comes to Hair Extensions and prices.

What is Single Drawn?

Single Drawn hair is  hair that was obtained  from one donor as a ponytail. Because it is kept together naturally the donor will have different lengths of hair. Some people like this as they feel it looks more naturally but the ends will not look as full and even.  they can look a little straggly at the ends.

 

What is double drawn hair?

Double drawn will tangle less than single drawn hair and is the highest quality you can find.  By hand the shorter lengths of hair are removed so it will take more than one donor to make up a weft.  All of the hair will have an uniform length and look much fuller than single drawn.

What do I Buy?

Double drawn is more expensive as it may take 9 – 10 lbs of single drawn hair to make 1 lb of double drawn hair. Also, the labour involved in making double drawn is much more intensive and lengthy which is reflected in the price. Its a personal preference to how much hair you want, the price you are prepared to pay and how much hair you need to integrate with your own.

IMG_6334

 

Above you can see an image of a Single drawn weft and a double drawn weft.  The double drawn weft is easy to see as it looks much healthier and fuller on the ends.

All of the wefts at Wigs Online are Double drawn and are kept at reasonable prices as much as possible.

Styling a Human Hair Wig

Posted on by Wigs Online

Human Hair Wigs can be difficult as they do need styling after each wash.  Synthetic hair wigs are treated so they bounce back in to shape after each wash.  Choosing between a synthetic or human hair wig is a personal preference.  Some people just love the feel and look of human hair wigs while others do not.

 

At Wigs Online we deal with Jon Renau as one of our suppliers of human hair wigs.  The quality of their wigs are unsurpassable.  I read an article on their blog this morning and thought it had some great points to remember when styling your human hair wig.

There are a few tips that should be kept in mind when styling a human hair wig:

Always wash the wig with a good quality shampoo and conditioner.  At Wigs Online we have a specially formulated Shampoo, Conditioner and Argan oil.

Do not rub the hair so hard to tangle the fibres.  Just blot with a towel the excess water.

Always use a wide tooth comb and start gently combing from the bottom of the hair.

Style the hair in sections  using only a moderate heat.  Not too much heat.

Use the cool button on your hair dryer if you have one.

If you need to use a flat iron use a heat protector spray on the hair before you start blowdrying the hair.
