One of the first questions that come to mind when the decision has been made that it is time to purchase a wig is, "Can people tell I am wearing a wig?" Regardless of what wig fiber you decide on, human hair or synthetic, today's state-of-the-art wig construction gives these wigs a realistic appearance.Β  Wig cap constructions are made from a much thinner fiber than in the past, thus avoiding a bulky, "wiggy" look. If you choose to purchase a human hair wigs, be aware that it will require a professional trimming and styling once it arrives. Human hair wigs also require the same type of maintenance as would natural hair.

I love the curls

I love the curls. The curls are natural and for those who have always wanted hair with some soft curl to it, but like me, were born with stick straight hair, Avalon is a pretty wig to own.

Good value for the price

I loved the color and the natural-looking variation of the hairs as well as the cut. It's not quite long enough to braid, but it really highlights my cheekbones and eyes. The cap is very comfortable and cooler than most.

I like this wig made by Estetica' and usually order from a different company and it has less hair; not enough volume. The same wig from your company (Elegant wigs) has more volume. I'm very happy with the difference.

Disappointed!

I’ve been wearing this style for over 10 years - but the wig received is very inconsistent in styling. The left side is Ok - however will need lots of hairspray to correctly form the other side. It’s choppy - and I may have to cut it in one area. Very disappointed! Hope I don’t totally ruin it due to the corrections I plan to make!

Too much hair for me

Looked shorter and seemed to have less hair in pictures viewed before purchasing. Unfortunately, I had to return it as I explained in an email. Was surprised it came from manufacturer (?) which was the only paperwork in the box. Sent it back to Elegant Wigs. Should have received it and I look forward to my refund.

I love my Gabby wig. This is the second one I bought. I have alopecia and have worn wigs for 20 years. Henry Margu is my favorite wig maker. I have also purchased Lyndsey and Gianna. I’m very satisfied with your company and service. I know I will be buying another wig from Elegant in the future.

Avalon in Lilac Haze

Beautiful up-do hair,quality fibers & timeless style. Normally stay away from fashion colors because realistic has been my goal. The color is just a hint,as if you were to use a purple shampoo/rinse. Fun great choice.

Best shampoo!

I’ve used several other brands of shampoo in the past, but was disappointed with the overall cleansing outcome. The shampoo has a lovely fragrance leaving the hairpiece smelling fresh and clean. Totally satisfied.

Im really not pleased with this one. The front of the wig the bang looks like its sticking up and just is not like the other bailey. But I have noticed they are not the same as in the past.

Sky Wig

I have worn the Sky wig for several years I feel that this last one was okay but it feels like less hair. The previous one was far too small & less hair. Noriko appears to have made a change to the Sky wig. I’m staying with it for now but only because Michael has been so helpful with my orders.
