Jon Renau New Range Has Just Arrived

Posted on 17 November 201516 May 2019 by Wigs Online

Jon Renau bring out a few new great pieces each season and this season will be no different. We are always surprised how they come up each season with something new but they do.

The Fall collection for 2015 brings five new fresh looks and captivating chic styles. Jon Renau know how to keep fashion in mind and produce the highest quality wigs. A good wig will not look like a wig. Here is a quick rundown of each style to come:

Evan_12FS8_Alt4

Evan is a very sassy chic pixie style wig. It is so elegant with its sweeping fringe. The smart lace front gives the wearer an undetectable hairline. The open cap gives volumes to your style and is cool to wear in Summer.

Rosie_6-33_Side

Rosie is a gorgeous bob like no other. With lots of long layers and a sweeping fringe and a mono top to give the wearer a realistic looking crown. It also showcases the lace front that can allow the wearer to pull their hair away from their face.

Alessandra_14-26S10_Side2

Alessandra is the longest style in this collection It really is a gorgeous stunning design that will turn heads around. It has all the features of a quality wig with a mono top and a smart lace front that Jon Renau is renowned for. The layers graduate oozing with style.

1-Mariska-FS26-31_Side3

Mariska is the Pettite addition to the range. There is nothing else you can ask for. Lace front, Mono top and Hand tied are all the best features in a wig. Hand tied means that there is no wefting in the back of the wig. As the name suggests each hair is hand tied in to the cap to give you the most realistic look. When you run your hands through your hair you can see that no one will tell its a wig. There is no where to see the wefting as there is none. The part can be placed on either side as the mono top allows the hair to flow in all directions. Its a great versatile wig.

3-Cameron-14-26S10_Alt2

Lastly there is Cameron, the latest modern bob style. The layers and length make it a little different from anything else that we have seen before. The elegance of Cameron is a timeless style. It showcases the very best features like the others: Mono top, Smart Lace front and 100% Hand tied. As with all mono tops you can place the part on either side or in the middle. The Smartlace Front gives you a flawless hairline with beautiful layers framing the face.

These great new styles have just arrived and we look forward to extending the range with more colours.

How is a Wig Made?

Posted on 22 September 201517 April 2020 by Wigs Online

How is a Wig Made?

Wigs are made all over the world but most mass produced wigs are made in countries like China, Indonesia and India. Countries like Australia have very high labour costs which makes wigs very expensive. Countries in Asia have much lower wages costs hence making it much more affordable for the average client to afford a wig. It is amazing how from a few strands of hair that is made into a weft and with quite a lot of work, a wig is created.

Below are some images where you can see how a wig starts with the raw products of hair, lace, monofiliament fabric, skin tops and a few more items. There is some machinery that helps with each stage but it is very labour intensive. There is a real art to making a good quality wig. Below are some of the things we saw that were all part of the process.

DSCN0911 Collection of Hair and Bundling: Hair is collected and prepared for manufacturing. Hair is arranged so it is lying in all the same direction. The hair is brushed against a hackle quite a few times which is just a large wire brush that is clamped to a table. It keeps the hair smooth and untangled as well as drawing out any small hairs. ( You can see on the left what a Hackle looks like)

Washing & Sterilising Hair : The hair DSCN0957 is inspected to make sure it is clean and they will sterile the hair. The hair is gently and thoroughly hand washed in basins in soapy water with disinfectant. They are rinsed a few times to make sure there is no residue of soap. Then the hair is allowed to air dry or put in warmer ovens specifically for hair.

DSCN0916 Making Wefts :For a wefted wig, the hair is sewn onto a weft by machine. The wefts are then made up into a wig. Depending on the type of wig they are making there are different steps. Some wigs are made with a lace cap while others are have a mono top or a skin top.

Making a Skin top: Here you can see how a skin top has hair punched into it by machine. You can see in the second photo that the hair needs to be trimmed on the inside of the wig. After it is trimmed they place a special glue to keep it all intact. Then it can be inserted into the rest of the wig. Others have a mono top which is a fine monofilament mesh that the hair is tied individually onto to give the wearer a realistic look.

These are just a few of the processes hat it takes to make a wig. Seeing the process makes you appreciate all the work it takes to make a wig and most of it is done by hard manual labour by very talented craftsmen.

Flaunt’s New Lace Front Wigs by Forever Young

Posted on 17 August 201517 April 2020 by Wigs Online

Screen Shot 2014-09-04 at 12.57.35 pm

Forever Young have done it again. They have kept up with the fashion and brought out a small range of Lace Front Wigs which all the trendy young girls will be so excited about. New Fashion trends include Braids, Beach Waves and Synthetic Hair that is heat resistant. Gone are the days where wigs looked like wigs.

The lace front is essential for any style that requires the hairline to be seen without the coverage of a fringe. The Lace Front gives the wearer a hairline that is so realistic that hair appears to be coming straight out of the scalp. It’s not an easy task but Forever Young have absolutely nailed it.

Braids and especially the Fish tail braid are hard to do on yourself but with these wigs you don’t need to worry. Just pop it on and you are ready to go out with your new fashionable style.

Forever Young have for the first time, used a fibre that is Heat resistant. On the instructions it states that the heat resistant fibre can withstand up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit ( or 170 degrees Celcius). Personally if you can start around 130 degrees Celcius and you can achieve the style you want, I would keep it to a minimum. The more heat and styling you do on a wig will shorten the life of the wig. The least amount of heat will prolong the life of the wig.

Here is a short list of the new products that you will be excited about:

Urban Gypsy

Urban Gypsy Flaunt

You could be mistaken for Beyonce if you were wearing the Urban Gypsy. At the sides of the wig there is a small amount of hair tied to the back to give you that look just like Beyonce. It is pulled away from the face with a couple pieces fallen over the face. It is a very pretty style. Just love it.

Lolita Long Side Braid

Lolita Long Side Braid

Lolita is another Lace Front with a braid draped around the top of the forehead and then tied up to the back of the wig. It’s a great style for the young at heart. Braids are not easy to do but with Lolita it’s no problem.

Kell

kell

Kell is a great Lace Front wig that has a lovely feminine look. Being Heat Resistant you could straighten the hair or enhance the curls. another young at heart fashionable wig. At the moment Kell is not on the website but we can order her in at no extra cost and it will take up to 2 weeks. If you like Kell please contact us at www.wigsonline.com.au by phone 1300 797 579 or email us at sales@wigsonline.com.au

Blair Wave

Blair Wave is a great Lace Front wig with long loose romantic waves. It has great versatility as you can pull your hair back into a pony tail or wear loose hanging past your shoulders. As its also a heat resistant fibre you can style it as you wish.

Philo Braid

Philo Braid

Just love the Fish tail Braid but who can actually do it themselves. This would be my favorite. A ready made braid – what else could you ask for.

Rocker Tiered Hair Extension

Rocker Tiered is our first Clip in Synthetic Hair extension. It’s a great piece to add volume and body to your own style. At last a hairpiece for those who just want volume and not hair down to their knees. If you have ever experienced short limp thin hair you will appreciate this piece.

At the moment Rocker Tiered is not on the website but we can order it in at no extra cost and it will take up to 2 weeks. If you like Rocker Tiered please contact us at www.wigsonline.com.au by phone 1300 797 579 or email us at sales@wigsonline.com.au

What is Permatease?

Posted on 4 August 201517 April 2020 by Wigs Online

apple-touch-iconold

Permatease is also known as Perma lift. It is a crimping effect done at the root of wigs to create more volume and height to your hairpiece. It can also be seen at the nape of the wig sometimes as well. If it is done properly it is barely noticeable and wont look ratty as it does in some cheap wigs. Most hand tied wigs will not have permatease.

It is a personal choice whether you like the permatease or not. Some clients like the look and feel that it contributes to the realistic look of the wig. While others are absolutely opposed to it.

This image below is very close up to the wig. The next two images are the same wig but a little further away. As you can see it is only noticeable extremely close up. Permatease1 Carrie_Caramel

The image is of the new style we have available from Ellen Wille called Carrie. Its part of the Perucci range. It has an European elegance about it.

Reasons to buy a wig.

Posted on 20 July 201516 May 2019 by Wigs Online

No More Bad Hair Days

Wigs can be for fashion and fun as well as disguising hair loss. No matter what the reason I say why not have fun with it. I have listed some of the popular reasons people love wigs.

EW_Date4 EW_Play2 EW_Pam_hitec1

shutterstock_74512990 At times when clients are suffering with hair loss due to cancer, alopecia, stress, hormonal changes, etc: A wig is a simple and easy solution that can help the wearer feel like their normal self again. It takes the worry of hair loss out of the picture so they can look after any other issues they need to deal with. It can help with the wearer feel confident again to walk out on the street without feeling self conscious.

EW_Flip1 Colouring your hair can damage your hair with the excess use of bleaches and dyes.The more processes and chemicals you place your hair through, the more damage is done. Natural hair is always the healthiest. With a wig you need not worry about giving your hair any more stress than necessary. Your own hair can remain strong and healthy underneath.

No commitment to keeping a colour or style. You can try a new wig whenever you feel like you need a change. There is no reason why you can’t have a short style today and a long style tomorrow or you could be a blonde on Saturday night while being a brunette during the week. A wig can be a trial run to see if you are going to like a style before you style and cut your own hair. If you don’t like it, you can change a wig but changing your style may take time to grow out all those layers and fringes.

With the costs of going to the hairdresser, a wig is probably better value. Most hairdressers these days cost up to $400 for a colour, cut and blow wave which will need more colour and styling in 6 – 8 weeks. A synthetic wig will last up to 6 months and a human hair wig will last up to 12 months with no further colouring or trimming needed.

shutterstock_9980950 No more bed hair. Your hair can look glamorous within ten minutes of getting out of bed. It can be styled from the night before and still look great. No need to worry about the hair tangled and matted from bed. Your wig is sitting on the end of your bed ready to pop on.

A synthetic wig means no styling just put on and go. Synthetic Hair wigs are the easiest wigs to take care of. You can’t apply heat so there is no styling and they are designed to keep their style and shape. Little time and effort required.

No need to wash and style your hair every second day. Your wig will stay looking great for a at least a week before it needs washing. And when its time to wash your wig it’s a simple process with some shampoo, conditioner and a bucket.

And for the best reason of all, have fun shopping for a new wig style.

What is a 3/4 Wig?

Posted on 6 July 201517 April 2020 by Wigs Online

A 3/4 Wig is different to a full wig that it only covers 3/4 of your head and is used to integrate with your own hair. They are fixed just in the front of the crown of your head ( in behind your fringe with clips. They are the perfect solution to those experiencing some hair loss. A 3/4 wig will add volume and length to your hair very easily.

Here are some tips to placing a 3/4 wig on your head:

1. Pull back your hair from just behind your fringe and hold back with some pins.
2. Insert the comb of the front of the wig onto your head where you want to place the wig.
3. Secure the wig at the nape with the clips or combs ( depends on the wig what attachments it has)
4. Brush hair and integrate hair with wig.

If this is done probably you won’t be able to see where the wig finishes and ends. It will be a seamless finish. Not everyone is prepared to wear a wig and may not need a full wig so a 3/4 wig is a great idea.

Its always a great idea to search through utube and search “putting on a 3/4 wig” where you can watch how someone else does it. There are other ways of applying your wig and everyone has there own style of wearing wigs.

We have a small range of 3/4 wigs in different colours and styles as well as some human hair and synthetic hair 3/4 wigs. Check out our website at www.wigsonline.com.au

If you have any further queires or need some advice give us a call on 1300 797 579 or email us at sales@wigsonline.com.au.
