ellenwille

We have some exciting news about a new Wig brand coming to Wigs Online.  We will be stocking Ellen Wille wigs in the coming months.

Ellen Wille has been producing wigs for more than 45 years.  All the styles are ready to wear and style.  The Ellen Wille wigs are very fashionable and you need not worry about buying daggy looking hair.  They have a full range of different caps from the Mono top, lace front and caplets designs.

Just a little bit about Ellen Wille: Ellen Wille started a little wig shop in Frankfurt back in 1967.  By the end of the 1980s Ellen formed a company as her business had grown immensely.  To this day Ellen Wille is still very active in the company that she has nurtured over many years.  From the styles and quality you can see she has an eye for fashion, style and colour.

Below are a few images of our first styles to land on our website to start our New Range of Ellen Wille Wigs.

We can make special orders for any Ellen Wille Style that you love.  There is no additional cost and we can get new stock in within 2 weeks. Email us at Sales@wigsonline.com.au or phone 1300 79 75 79.

Wigs Online Showroom

original

 

We finally have our showroom fully operational and hope our clients will enjoy the space to choose their next wig. Our Showroom is at Unit 5A /34  Redland Drive Vermont which is a quiet Office area away front the hustle and bustle of the Shopping Centres.

It can be a very stressful and indecisive time when trying on wigs. We have tried to make the showroom a nice area where everyone feels welcome. We have a curtained off area so no one needs to feel like they have taken their wig off in the middle of the shopping centre.  We ask that our clients call us ahead of time to make an appointment so we can make sure that we can have a sales assistant available to give you the time you need.

We are happy for you to try on the wigs and have a chat about any other information you may need.  If you are looking for something specific we can always order it in for you at no extra cost.  Give us a call and we can help you with your next wig purchase.  It’s always a good idea to have a look through our website so you have an idea of what you like and don’t like.

You can call us on  1300 79 75 79 or email us at sales@wigsonline.com.au.

 

Should I wear a Wig Liner?

Wearing a wig can take a little getting used to and first time wearers need to work out the best products to suit their needs.  There is no right or wrong way to wear your wig, everyone is different and everyone’s preferences are also different.

Many clients don’t wear anything between the wig and their scalp while others will wear Wig Caps or Wig Liners.  Here are a couple products that may help you be more comfortable in wearing your wig.

Wig Caps

Wig Caps come in Nylon or Fish Net options.  As with everything neither is better than the other, it just depends what you feel is more comfortable.  Some prefer the Nylon Wig Cap as it creates a barrier between the wig for their scalp especially if the scalp is sensitive.  Others find the Nylon Wig Cap is too hot and doesn’t breathe so they prefer the Fish Net wig caps.

Wig Liners

We also have an alternative product, Headline It Wig Liners by Jon Renau.  They are a fantastic product that will help in making your wig more comfortable.  It is a discreet liner for wigs that evaporates the sweat so you don’t have sweat pouring down to your eyes.  It will keep you cooler in summer and warmer in Winter.  It is designed to pull sweat to the top layer and then evaporate continuously. The back layer traps oil, salt and doors to keep your wig cleaner and more comfortable.

The Headline It Liner Benefits:

Keeps you feeling drier
Reduces odour and bacteria
Allows air to ventilate
Less washing of your wig is required
The tan colour camouflages to be worn discreetly under your wig or headwear.

The average use of a Headline It is one week.  They are disposable and one size fits all.  Each pack consists of 10 liners individually packed so you can keep one in your bag.

As you can see they are very easy to put in.  Simply remove the strip and adhere to the front of your headwear or wig. You can wear it continuously on average for one week before you need to discard it.

 

 

 

 

 

We have these and many more accessories listed on our website: www.wigsonline.com.au

 

 

Jon Renau Spring Collection 2015

We live on the other side of the world so it may seem strange that we are talking about Spring 2015.  With Jon Renau it doesn’t matter.  They have just released the Spring Collection which we have started to add to our website.  They have put together 7 new styles and there promises to be something for everyone.  I thought It was time to give you a run down on the new styles:

SCARLETT

1scarlett_12FS8_MainScarlett will be on our website in the next week or so.  It is a lovely beachy waves Style Wig.  It features a Smartlace Front Premium Synthetic Hair.  The Smartlace gives you an undetectable hairline at the front and the wefted back keeps you feeling cool.  This style is very fashionable for this season and we will be seeing more of this to come this season.

ROBIN

2          Chelsea_1426S10_Alt2Robin is the only petite new style.  The quality monofiliament base gives you a very natural looking wig with beautiful elegant layers. The hair from the top just looks like it is coming straight out of your own scalp.

KATHERINE

Katherine_6F27_Alt3

 3We just love the  Katherine wig.  It’s another fantastic style to the Smart Lace Front collection. The natural looking hairline just gives you a realistic look.  The quality is just unsurpassable and we are sure this will be one of everyone’s favourite.

 

JODIE

Jodie_633_Alt44Jodie is like no other we have seen before in the Jon Renau Collection.  For those ladies who want something a little longer but not shoulder length, then Jodie is your wig. She is elegant with her soft framing layers.  The Smartlace with a mono top gives it a natural look.  She is also very versatile.  If you comb her down rather than flicking her out, you can achieve a whole new look.

CHELSEA

5Robin_42730_Alt2Chelsea is the only new addition to the O’solite  range.  They are always comfortable to wear and very popular because of that reason.  With a few brush strokes you can style her a little different to give your own personal touch to it.

 

TOP CROWN

6  Top-Crown_633_Alt2We don’t have this listed on our website currently but you can contact us via phone to place an order.  Special orders are taken at no extra charge and will take 7 – 10 days to arrive.  Just like all of Jon Renau toppers, the Top Crown is undetectable and will blend seamlessly with short waves.The mono top means that you can style the hair any direction you like.  A mono top base is a fine luxurious base.

 

KARLIE

7Karlie is a simple and elegant style. Karlie displays all the best Karlie_1426S10Alt2features Jon Renau can give.  It has the Smartlace Front technology with a monofilaiment top and is hand tied. The simple style is so versatile and you can decide which side you are going to put the part in.

Karlie will debut on our website at the end of May.  You can place an order with us at no extra cost and delivery will take 7 – 10 days.

What is a Lace Front Wig?

Lace Front Wigs.

Fiery_5Lace front Wigs are very popular.  The hairline has a look of natural hair growth along the front hair line.  With a lace front hair wig you can pull the hair away from the face as it looks very realistic.  The front of the wig has a fine sheer mesh which the hair is individually tied to.  Being hand tied the hair is usually multi directional so you can style it whichever way you choose.  Most hand tied Lace Front wigs are ready to wear.  Wigs Online carries a few human hair as well as synthetic hair wigs.  A lace front wig will be more expensive as the labour costs involved in making a lace front is a lot higher than a fully wefted wig.  On a Lace from the hair is individually tied so this is very labour intensive.

The lace front can be glued down with adhesive or not depending on your preference.  If you want to remove the wig each night we would recommend using something like It Stays Body adhesive which is easily removed with just water. Alternatively you can use Hairpiece adhesive and the Remover.  We would only suggest this if you were happy to wear your wig all day and night.  And to remove every 5 -7 days.

You must always be careful with the lace as it is very delicate but the realistic look of a lace front is worth the time and effort.  If the lace is a good colour match to your skin tone it should be invisible.  When you apply your make up, you can cover the lace front with your make up to give you a flawless finish.

Ava_wigcap

Wigs Online has a great range of Lace Front wigs and you can always call us for any advice you need in choosing the right one for you.

The Difference between a Wig and A Toupee

What is a Wig?  What is a Toupee?

The use of a wig or a toupee are very different.  A wig is a to cover the full head entirely whether the wearer has hair or not. A wig can be taken off easily and doesn’t need any special glues to hold it in place.  The wig is elasticised and will hold firmly on the wearer comfortably.

A toupee is used to cover a bald spot on the wearer’s head.  A special adhesive is applied to hold the toupee in place.   It is usually for males and not so much for females.  A good toupee needs to be fitted by a specialist to integrate the toupee with the wearer’s own hair. Usually the wearer will need to go back to the stylist to have it removed as well.  If you don’t want to apply the toupee with glue, it can be attached with clips but it may not be as secure as if the adhesive is used.

Caring for a wig or a toupee will require special shampoo and conditioner formulated for wigs and toupees.  The only difference would be that you can take your wig off and wash it in a basin and a Toupee you would wash while wearing the hairpiece.

Whether you choose a toupee or a wig is a personal preference.  Both can look fabulous and give you a boost of confidence of your appearance.

On the right  is an image of the inside of a toupee. JackyHH_44Toupee’s constructions can vary.  The toupees that we have in stock have a monofiliament base and a medical strip around the edge to aid in applying glue or adhesive.  As you can see on the mannequin it doesn’t cover the whole head.
