I never thought that I would wear wigs or write about my
experience with a particular brand of wigs for that matter, until now.
My own hair is brown, mid-length, with a wavy/curly texture and
even though I have worn clip-in extensions previously, I had never worn a full
wig or even knew how a high quality one could enhance my appearance. One of the
reasons why I used to avoid wigs is because most of the ones that I saw looked
too shiny and doll-like with an unnatural appearance. My perception of wigs
completely changed when I was given the opportunity to try on and wear Risque
Wigs- a division of Estetica Designs. I was in shock and amazed the first time
I put on one of the wig styles. It was
absolutely beautiful with a flattering cut, natural sheen, soft layers,
breathable cap, and realistic scalp part.
I could hardly believe how natural the wig looked on me; in fact, I feel
that I looked better with the wig on!
All Risque Wigs are made of high-quality synthetic Futura
material, which is a special heat resistant fiber that can be styled with heat
tools, such as a curling iron or flat iron.
This is a wonderful feature, because it allows the wigs to be curled or
straightened at medium temperatures, without causing damage. Also, because the wigs are made of Futura
Fibers, they retain their shape for a long time.
Many synthetic wigs that I have seen women wearing do not
look realistic with an unnatural, shiny appearance. Honestly, they look like they were made from
the same kind of material that doll hair is made of and some even smell like
doll hair. Risque Wigs, however, are
completely different and look like real human hair, with a natural sheen, and
they do not have a plastic doll smell. In fact, Risque Wigs do not have a scent
at all and the texture of the hair fibers simulates the texture of human
hair.
Risque Wigs are fitted with a Pure Stretch Cap, which
provides elasticity throughout the cap, creating a comfortable, breathable, and
secure fit that will last all day.
My own hair is wavy/curly, but is very fine, so it has been
a blessing to wear Risque Wigs, because they have given me length and fullness
with incredible style and versatility that I did not experience with clip-in extensions.
I would like to share with you some of my favorites from the
Risque Collection.
ESCAPE: This is the very first wig that I tried on
from the collection and wear on a regular basis. It has long layers with medium spiral curls,
side swept bangs, natural skin part, and has an overall length of 22.5
inches. Mine is in the color of Dark
Brown (R4/6H). This is such a beautiful wig and I have had so many compliments
wearing it. No one seems to be able to
tell that the wig is not my own hair; they just tell me that my hair looks
beautiful.
DARE: Is a long layered wig with tight spiral curls
throughout. It has a realistic skin part that makes the wig look like it is
growing from your own scalp. The wig is
very curly, voluminous, and is 20 inches long. I have this style in Dark Brown
(R4/6H) too. I did not like the
tightly-curly look on me, so I straightened it with a flat iron at 325 degrees
and cut some bangs near the front, so that it would compliment my particular
face shape. The wig looks great with
tight curls or straight, depending on your personal preference.
OBSESSION:
The longest style in the Risque Wig Collection and the most popular. Measuring a stunning 30 inches in length,
this style is certainly a head turner.
The one length style has thick bangs, realistic center skin part, and a
silky texture. I have this wig in two colors Dark Brown
(R4/6H) and Blonde (R24/18BT). I like both colors on me and was very surprised that
the blonde color looks nice on me, because I did not think that I could wear
such a light color. The wig is long, flowing, with thick ends, looks real, and
sort of reminds me of the 1960’s and 70’s, when many women would wear their
hair straight and parted in the center with bangs. Because of it’s length, I found the wig to be
a bit heavy, but after a few hours of wear, I got used to it. Also, I recommend
combing the wig daily after wearing it,
because unlike some of the other styles, it does have a tendency to get
a few tangles now and then.
REACTION: This wig is so
cute. It is a shoulder length, layered style with a side skin part,
loose waves, a soft bang, and is 19.5 inches long. I have it in a medium brown (R6/12H) color,
but I should have gotten it in a darker shade, because I do not like the
highlights throughout the wig that appear to have grey or white colored hair
mixed in. In my opinion, the color makes me look much older than I really am,
but other than the color, I absolutely love the style, cut, and the way the
curls form throughout the wig. Many different looks and styles can be created
because of its versatility. It is, in my
opinion, the most versatile wig that I have worn from the Risque Collection,
because it is lightweight and has specially cut layers that have great fluidity
of movement. Maybe in the future I will
get the Reaction style in a dark brown shade.
All of the wigs that I have mentioned from the Risque Collection
come in a variety of colors to choose from even the colors pink and purple, but
only the natural colors, such as brown, auburn, and blonde, can be straightened
or curled with heat tools. The wigs are
very easy to take care of. Just swish them gently in cold or lukewarm water
with a mild shampoo, rinse with cold water, towel dry by lightly blotting the
hair, comb gently- starting from the bottom and work upwards to remove any
tangles, then air dry. It is good to have a Styrofoam mannequin head to set
your wig on to help retain its shape.
Risque has many other styles to choose from, but I mentioned
just a few of my favorites.
If you have been looking for high quality wigs that look
natural, realistic with great style and comfort that can be styled just like
human hair, and enhance your appearance, then I highly recommend Risque Wigs.
