I think Heather’s site shows only the Light Bernstein photos which are fairly close to reality, but you will see photos of this style on other sites that do NOT do it justice. In reality this is a fabulous wig if you’re looking for a short bob that frames the face and has lots of natural movement. Ellen Wille hair fiber is probably the most realistic of any of the name brand wigs. Soft and fine like ‘European’ hair (if that is what you want) so that even relatively straight styles don’t have places where the hair sticks out with a mind of it’s own as is too often the case with my formerly favorite brand Noriko ;-)
I did ‘shape’ the bangs on my original Java because I can’t stand synthetic fiber hair falling in my eyes. I just ordered two more Java’s during one of Heather’s weekend sales and I may try leaving the front alone and see if I can train it to stay to the sides better (as shown in the Light Bernstein photos). As you go about your day this hair moves and looks great even if the wind catches it, etc. Falls back into place naturally for a slightly tousled, but still ’together’ look that you don’t have to fiddle with all the time. Fantastic!!!
The lace front on Ellen Wille wigs is the best and with this one you really don’t need a lace or mono part as it parts itself very naturally and the small amount of permatease needed for body absolutely does not show. I wear nearly all my wigs with a band called Wig Grip and Java fits and feels great using the WG underneath.…
