I have one for about a year now. I love it. It's soft and sleek, couldn't ask for more for the price I paid.

just curious for those that have the jap wig, do you wear it every day, or for work? my sheitel macher talked me out of it. she said I shouldn't give it more than 6 months.

I bought a jap in september and I just had it cut. I feel like the front is very thin, almost a bald spot where the part begins. I had the shaitel macher cut wisps and thats when I noticed it. Anyone else see this on their jap?

All my ex-sister-in-law's wigs are JAP wigs. And her clothes are JAP clothes, her ideas are JAP ideas, and her kids are all JAPs, too. Meeeeeoooowwww!

I just can't believe anyone actually named their wig business Jap wigs. But then, I guess in some circles, "JAP" is considered a compliment Rolling Eyes

.

I also can't believe no one of Japanese descent has complained.

I obught it specifically to wear to work...my long allegria wig was getting to be too much....this is absolutey perfect.

and no I did not notice any bald spots at all, in fact the hair seems like a lot.

been very satisifed, I bought it about 9 months ago

My SIL has a Jap. She likes it better than her Shuly. Regardless, her Shuly looks fantastic on her!

I have a 19" curly Jap wig for about 10 months now. I also have another nearly new shaitel that cost more than 4 times as much sitting practicaly unworn because I like the jap one more. Wherever I go I get tons of compliments on it and and shaitelmacher that washes and sets it always asks me where its from because its so nice. It does tend to tangle a bit but since its curly you cant even notice. Also I think its such a "mazal zach" with sheitelach anyways. Out of the 7 shaitelach Ive owned since I got married 3 of them expensive customs this is by far my favorite, gets the most use of any Ive ever owned and the most compliments. Its also very light on my head, I cant even feel that Im wearing it which couldnt be said for a couple of other lower priced europeans Ive bought in the past. and if you think of it If you spend 480 for a 19" wig and even if it only lasts a year, you can get another one next year. I will never buy another shaitel that costs thousands of dollars, how long are those going to last anyway or look amazing?

How is the cap made? Is it a stretch? Closed or wefts? Does anyone have both a Jap and a Milano, which is what I'm currently looking into? I'm a 16/10 -- any thoughts on Jap in that color range (light brown/dark blonde)?

Appreciated! Tongue Out

I have a blond milano and while it looks nice on, the hair is thick and coarse I constantly have to brush it for it to look normal. I'm interested in how blond jap hair compares.

I went to jap today and just to add to all the posts, the hair was soft and silky. and for the pony that I was looking at, they had an amazing selection of blonds!

now I just have to convince dh to agree to the purchase Smile

Nicole could you tell me about the cap and the other questions that I put in the above post? Also, does anyone know if they do a payment plan like Milano has? Thanks!

the cap is closed, and I *think* it's stretch. I don't know about a payment plan, but you should call and ask your questions.

I'm probably going back to purchase on sunday (I kinda got dh to agree... woohoo) so I can ask if you'd like.

Congrats on convincing DH!! Very Happy

I will call them, maybe stop by on Sunday (I'll be the one trying on sheitels with three kids under 6 ka"h shock

). Thanks! A Gutten Shabbos! Tongue Out

I just received my 16/10 JAP 20 inch fall in the mail. I am VERY impressed. Stretch cap, 2x3 inch skin top (falls don't really need them) Long silky hair, good highlight pattern. I will let you know how it holds up but am impressed for the amount of money I paid. It is very light and the hair isn't too thick. I finally feel like myself again.
