FreeTress is Shake-N-Go's synthetic brand, and its half wig page groups styles from Equal, FreeTress, Naked, Natural Me and Organique, filtered by band, drawstring, half wig and headband types. The Equal Natural Me drawstring full cap styles stand out for blending, because they come in pressed textures, Natural Pressed Waves and Natural Pressed Yaky, that match relaxed or silk pressed hair at the front. The retailer listing for Pressed Yaky says the texturized hair blends effortlessly. Shake-N-Go also lists a long run of named Girl styles, such as Vanilla Girl, Milan Girl and Creta Girl, and Naked half wigs such as Water Curl 18 inch and Sunny Deep 18 inch. When we checked, Natural Pressed Waves cost $18.99, down from $30.99. Shake-N-Go's own pages show no prices, so expect them to vary between stores. For tight curls, Outre and Sensationnel have more choice.
