Decadent Diva | Synthetic Lace Front Wig (Hand Tied)

I love Raquel Welch's lace front. Nobody does it better. Even with the darkest colors, you can't really see the knotting.

I was a little concerned about this wig because it looks too voluminous. But given that it's hand-tied, the volume doesn't come from wefting and whatever that artificial poofiness is called, but from the cut and the waves.

It is truly light! Looks like a lot of hair, but very light. It felt small at first, even though I have a slightly small head. But there was a lot of stretch, and the tightness around the ear tabs didn't give me a headache, which I was afraid of. I wore it all day before giving a review.

I do love the waves. I don't in general like "beach waves" I like more curl-like feminine waves, but not curls. It was more the latter. But without looking too Fara Fawcett like.

I also didn't really like the blunt cut all one length around except for the curtain bangs (love any cut with curtain bangs!). But it looked fine when I wore it, most of the time you don't notice the blunt cut. Even so, I decided to edit it a little. I cut more of a sloped curve toward the back so that the face framing area was shorter and gradually met the back. This way, it also better matches some of my other wigs, like Ellen Willie's Voice.

I like layers better.

Overall, it's a keeper. I wish more brands made more layered, feminine looks that are medium length. My go-to (of which I have several of each) are Raquel Welch's Spotlight petite (but I curl the strips…

I thought this was the answer to my dilemma with my selfie mode. (As I loved the look and length of selfie mode but it had too much hair and I wanted a hand tied cap). - I ordered my go-to color 924SS. The cap is as expected and hair fiber was nice and light as advertised. But the color was all wrong. There were super bright blonde streaks on each temple and in the bangs. The rest of the highlights were blended well enough but those sections in the front made it so there was no way I would be happy with it always wondering when these would pop out! I buy this shade as it is almost a perfect match to my bio hair. But I use wigs to get a break from my curly hair without having to waste so much time (and damage) straightening it. No one knows I wear wigs and I’m not ready to share that with the world just yet. So while the crazy highlights might not bother some, they would be a giveaway it’s not my hair. Tried to exchange hoping the color was an anomaly but my color was sold out…we’ll see if the second try is a keeper or not…whenever it comes back in stock.

Oh my goodness! She is gorgeous! This piece will definitely be a constant go-to style! Lace Front is beautifully done and undetectable. The heat friendly synthetic hair is silky, looks like human hair and is heat tool friendly for versatility in styling options. Hand Tied Monofilament Top is light and comfortable.

Soft waves with straightened blunt ends are a stunning look. Cheek length fringe bang is highly flattering for every face shape! I would say this style is a light-medium density, very natural looking and moves beautifully. She is an investment but take a chance!

Heat friendly wigs require more pampering than regular synthetic. Wash only when needed, once a month. I use a luke warm bath of wig shampoo and water, soak don't rub; do a rinse bath soak with luke warm water and 1/4 cap of fabric softener; lay on a hand towel to collect water; then spray lightly with wig leave in conditioner, and hang to dry on hanger with rubber clips attaching to the back of wig to hang, never hang from lace section. Keep ends smooth by using Jon Renau wide tooth comb while wearing. Use heat tool at 275° on ends or any frizzed areas. I like a large barrel curling iron or a flat wide tooth heat comb available on Amazon. I use the lowest setting. Your heat friendly wigs will last for up to a year instead of months.
