Cameron Lace Front Wig by Jon Renau

 

This comfortable wig features a lace front hairline, made with SmartLace technology, and a monofilament cap, providing excellent comfort and softness to your scalp throughout the day or night. Each strand of hair is hand tied to the monofilament cap, which allows for natural movement of the hair fibers, along with lots of versatility in styling. The lace front hairline on this timeless, bob-styled wig creates a natural-looking hairline that is almost impossible to detect.

Celebrity Wig Maker: Why Wigs are Trending Right Now!


Kylie Jenner recently debuted light baby blue hair.  At first, we thought she was wearing hair extensions, but it turns out, she was wearing a wig designed by Tokyo Stylez. Tokyo Stylez has worked with many celebrities, such as Karrueche Tran and Rihanna. You should follow Tokyo Stylez on Instagram. He uploads sweet selfies of himself wearing most of his wigs before he styles them. He tries on most of the wigs he makes to be sure the fit is right for his clients. 

Tokyo Stylez grew up in Omaha, Nebraska and began working on hair as young as 11-years-old. He started doing hair extensions for people in his local neighborhood, and after a while, he began to earn money for his talents. He began to receive requests for wigs from cancer patients, so he researched as much as he could and began making wigs. He rarely does sew in hair extensions any more. His main focus is wigs. 

Tokyo's wigs are priced between $650.00 to $4,000. He uses human hair to make the wigs, and price will vary depending upon what the style of the wig is and the type of human hair used to make the wig. The finer or more difficult to find human hair types will be more expensive. He customizes each wig with measurements specific to each client, so the result is a comfortable, natural looking wig. 

Wigs are trending right now because the younger people are realizing that wigs can look better than your real hair. Many trend setting celebrities are wearing wigs regularly.  Wigs can add volume and length or completely change your style or color of hair in seconds. For those struggling with fine or thinning hair, wigs can provide exciting change and increase confidence.

Whether you wear a wig because of hair loss or you wear a wig for fun, we have a huge selection of wigs to choose from. Check out the latest wig styles from Wig Studio 1!

Wigs for Cancer Patients

For women going through chemotherapy treatments, finding a wig that provides comfort is paramount, as oftentimes, chemotherapy treatments cause scalp sensitivity along with hair loss. For women with moderate to severe hair loss, who may be undergoing cancer treatments, we recommend double monofilament wigs or 100% hand-tied wigs. These wigs are light-weight and provide more comfort than traditional wigs. Whether your hair loss is the result of medication or chemotherapy treatment, wigs can help you feel and look like yourself again, and you deserve to feel your best.

 We also carry Wigs for Men that offer comfort to those undergoing chemotherapy treatments resulting in hair loss and scalp sensitivity.

2 Super Simple Wig Tips for Staying Cool this Summer!

With the right wig, even as temperatures climb, summer can be a breeze!  No matter how you plan to spend your summer, Wig Studio 1 is here to help you look and feel your best!  

Wig Tip # 1 - Go with a shorter wig during the warmer months!

If you normally wear a medium to long length wig, summer is the perfect time to spice it up with a short styled wig! Short wigs make summer a breeze by keeping hair off of your neck and shoulders. In addition, short wigs are lighter weight and are easier to style and maintain. Stick with your regular color or switch it up a bit!  Short wigs are among the most popular styles on WigStudio1.com, and we have a huge selection of colors, no matter what style you choose.  We offer many wigs in shorter styles, from shorter bobs to pixie styles. So, go ahead and embrace your beauty in a short wig and stay cool this summer!

 

Pictured above: Allure Wig by Jon Renau and Mono Jazz Wig by Jon Renau are among our most popular short wigs designed by Jon Renau.

Wig Tip # 2 - Wear a Capless Wig

Capless wigs offer better air ventilation because the cap is designed with open wefting, which provides a cooler and more comfortable wig wearing experience. Capless wigs are a great way to keep your head cool in the warmer summer months because they are among the lightest wigs available, and the open wefting throughout the cap helps provide maximum ventilation. Take a look at our many styles and beautiful colors available in our Capless Wig Collection.

Pictured above: Kristen Lace Front Wig by Jon Renau and Natalie Open Top Wig by Jon Renau are two of our most popular capless wigs. 

Have a great summer! We are always here to help if you have any questions!
