A Versatile Short Raquel Welch Wig
Voltage has earned its popularity by making short hair easy. The gently waved layers provide enough texture to create a softly tousled look, while the tapered silhouette can also be smoothed down for a more refined finish.
A small amount of wig-safe styling product can be used to define individual pieces, create extra lift through the crown or direct the layers away from the face. Because the style is already built into the synthetic fiber, Voltage is an excellent option for someone who wants a short, low-maintenance Raquel Welch wig that looks finished with minimal styling.

Lightweight Memory Cap® Open-Cap Construction
Voltage uses a breathable open-cap design with wefted construction through much of the sides and back. The openings between the wefts allow more air to circulate than a fully closed cap, helping keep this short style lightweight and comfortable.
The Memory Cap® construction incorporates stretch materials designed to conform more comfortably to the shape of the head. A wide velvet front band, open ear tabs and an extended nape add to the comfortable fit.

Average Cap Size

Kanekalon Vibralite® Synthetic Fiber
Voltage is made with Kanekalon Vibralite® synthetic fiber, developed to provide natural-looking color, texture and movement while maintaining the shape of the hairstyle.
Voltage is not a heat-friendly synthetic wig. Avoid curling irons, flat irons and other high-temperature styling tools. Instead, use wig-safe styling products and your fingers or an appropriate wig comb to customize the layers.
