Envy review

Envy was launched by designer and CEO Alan Eaton after a friend began losing her hair, and the brand says it is designed to be more wearable and more affordable while looking like the wearer's own hair. Its main idea is EnvyHair, a blend of human hair and synthetic fiber that aims to feel softer and move more naturally than synthetic alone without the price of full human hair. The brand also sells 100% human hair and Kanekalon synthetic wigs. Cap choices include Mono Top, which Envy says gives the look of a natural scalp and is soft on sensitive scalps, plus Mono Part, Lace Front and Hand-Tied, in average, petite and large sizes. Envy offers nearly every EnvyHair and synthetic style in 3 grey shades. It sells through retailers; at Wigs.com the Kelsey basic cap wig started from $151.90 during an extra 30% off sale.
