Think of me as your curator of Alternative Hair Pieces. I take the time to research and vet the human hair and synthetic wigs, toppers, extensions and toupees that are out there. Let my experience be your guide. I pre-select the optimum pieces, absolutely and positively!
Ellen Wille is a self-made hair designer who built a global brand from a small company. After completing her studies in Paris, the company was established in 1967. The corporate philosophy is shaped by commitment to the highest quality, and this is what Ellen Wille’s name stands for.
For over 50 years, Ellen Wille designs have been inspired by international fashion trends. Her passion for wig perfection is evident - she guides every meticulous detail; and each Ellen Wille wig is unique . I started partnering with Ellen as the increasing demand for lighter density and more blend alternative hair presented itself.
All of Ellen Wille pieces, whether they be synthetic or human hair toppers or wigs are lighter density that truly resonates with my clients who have finer or thinning natural strands. An EW piece is not only natural looking but is also easy and stress free to transition into.
The colorings are phenomenal. Ellen Wille was revolutionary in her coloring and color codes. You’ll find that each alternative hairpiece has a feel that it has been custom colored. Ellen Willie took every individual style into account for the placement of highlights, low lights, rooting and all over dimensionality. This is such a win for my wig clients. I also appreciate her heat-friendly synthetic fibers that allow flexibility in styling options! How fun!
It’s also a huge bonus that there are several human hair wigs that are short or medium length. I mean, who wants to buy an 18-inch human hair investment only to crop it to their chin?
John and Stella Reynolds founded Jon Renau, a family-owned business that manufactures wigs, hair extensions, and hairpieces, in South Africa. In 1984, the couple moved the company to Vista, California, and it is now headquartered in Carlsbad, California. John Reynolds is the CEO of Jon Renau.
I have partnered with synthetic experts Jon Renau for the last seven years, including being certified for hair supplementation, alterations and styling. This line will always be a constant in the studio.
I love Jon Renau for always offering us new looks and fibers; they really stay on top of the trends.
I’m pretty insane over their synthetics! Offering traditional synthetics and heat-friendly fibers certainly checks lots of boxes for my clients The constructions, welded lace™, extreme natural partings and soft but sturdy fibers consistently blow my mind. If you see me wearing synthetic, most likely it’s a Jon Renau (I prefer the traditional synthetics.)
Renau’s human hair fibers are equally lovely. When customizing color, their fibers maintain color adjustment really well. They also have some beautiful human hair blends to replicate your biological hair, texture and density. Also, their European hair selection is becoming more of a viable option if that works better for you.

Raquel Welch's wig career began in 2012 after she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that caused her to lose her hair. She struggled to find a wig that was both comfortable and natural-looking, which inspired her to create her own wig line. In 2014, Welch partnered with HairUWear, a leading wig manufacturer, to launch the Raquel Welch Wig Collection. The collection quickly became popular with women who experience hair loss.
Talk about fabulous color. Nobody does an alternative hairline quite like Raquel Welch. The thoughtfulness and intricacy of the color placement around the hairline makes it almost impossible to not want to wear your hair off your face. And the selection is insane! There are so many lovely synthetics to choose from including toppers. And if you want to have a little bit more fun, the names of her pieces are amazing! Truly a testament to her personality.
I love the volume and free flowing appeal that you get with the majority of her pieces. Although she does offer some lighter density pieces as well. There’s so many wins with Raquel Welch.
There’s so many things that I love about Follea by Daniel Alain! The sizing method is revolutionary, caps range in size from extra, extra, extra small to extra-large. This ensures that you can get an almost customized fit every time. The process of picking out the correct size is by utilizing their unique sizing caps. This shows where there may be extra space in the construction or not enough and we maneuver up or down a size until we find the ultimate comfort.
The folks at Follea are expert wig makers. They have a staff that is focused on hair and scalp health and even body health. You can recognize the caliber of the company by seeing that they have several dermatologists, a gastroenterologist, and a trichologist on board. As a result, the pedigree of their wigs is unsurpassed. They KNOW hair! It’s technology blended seamlessly with artistry. Their hair pieces define luxury in extraordinary 100% lace front human hair wigs. FOLLEA offers unrivaled longevity and craftsmanship in all wigs.
As for Follea fiber, nothing really matches up to their European, premium European and virgin European options. The fibers hold up so well-you’re definitely going to have longevity in this piece. The cap constructions also lend to the longevity of your investment. There are so many extra features included. A Follea hairpiece will typically last anywhere from 3 to 4 years.
Although the initial investment can be a little bit of a higher price point, Follea still manages to bring in a world-class blend that matches other competitors’ prices. Plus, they are so fun to customize in color. This gives you the leeway for a change of pace when you’re in need of a color refresh.
Follea offers a variety of hair loss solutions and hair care products for your lovely fibers, also lending to the longevity and overall delighted experience with your investment.
