Raquel Welch Winner review

Winner is the easiest way into Raquel Welch wigs. HairUWear lists it among the brand's bestsellers and describes it as under two ounces, a short boy cut that is ready to wear "with a firm shake right out of the box." At 1.75 oz it is the lightest wig in this list, and it is the only one offered in four cap sizes, from ultra-petite to large, which helps women with small heads who struggle to find a fit. The cap is a Memory Cap II with a wide velvet comfort band at the front, open ear tabs and an extended nape. What you give up is realism up close: there is no lace front or monofilament area, so the hair is wefted throughout, and the Kanekalon Vibralite fiber is not described as heat-friendly. At $175.99 at Headcovers, with 76 reviews on that listing, it is also the cheapest and most reviewed style we checked.
