Jon Renau Kristen review

Kristen is a mid-length, face framing bob that Wigs.com lists as a best seller in the Jon Renau range. It pairs a SmartLace front, which gives a natural looking hairline and lets you style the hair off the face, with an open cap that uses open wefting for ventilation, so it stays light. As a synthetic wig, the cut is set at the factory and returns after washing, which makes it far less work than a human hair bob that needs flat ironing after every wash. Jon Renau also offers it in gray shades, which suits wearers matching gray hair. When we checked, Wigs.com sold Kristen for $191.10 with a 30% sitewide discount, down from $272.99. The trade-offs are the standard synthetic ones: no heat styling, and a basic cap with no monofilament part, so the part is fixed.
