New Wave by TressAllure | Heat Friendly Synthetic
If you've been searching for a mid-length wig that looks genuinely natural without the upkeep of human hair, the New Wave by TressAllure | Heat Friendly Synthetic deserves a close look. Part of the Look Fabulous Collection, New Wave is a redesigned layered bob with feathered bangs, a lace front hairline, and a monofilament top — all wrapped in a cap that weighs just 2.71 ounces.
Design & Silhouette
New Wave delivers a flowing mid-length bob that hits just below the collar. A smooth, silky crown transitions into feathered layers, creating natural movement and face-framing dimension without added bulk. Key measurements at a glance:
- Fringe length: 3.25 inches (wispy, feathered — not blunt)
- Crown length: 5.5 inches
- Nape length: 6 inches
- Overall length range: 3.25–7 inches
- Weight: 2.71 oz (approximately 77 grams)
The feathered bangs can be worn forward for full forehead coverage, swept to the side for an asymmetrical effect, or blended into the side layers for a curtain-bang look. The face-framing side layers draw attention to the cheekbones and jawline, making this silhouette particularly flattering for round, oval, square, and heart-shaped face shapes. Use MyHairMail's Face Shape Analyzer if you'd like personalized guidance before ordering.
Cap Construction
New Wave is built on TressAllure's Sheer Comfort Lace Cap — a design that pairs two premium features for both realism and all-day comfort:
- Lace Front Hairline: Hand-tied lace creates an undetectable transition at the forehead. Hair appears to grow directly from the scalp, letting you style away from your face without revealing wig edges.
- Mesh Monofilament Top: Each hair is individually attached to a soft mesh top, simulating a natural scalp at the crown and allowing multi-directional parting — center, side, or diagonal.
- Open Weft Sides & Back: Breathable open weft construction throughout the sides and back helps prevent overheating during extended wear.
- Built-In Adjusters: Accommodate average cap sizes without pressure points. Check MyHairMail's Wig Size Chart to confirm fit before purchasing.
Fiber & Styling
New Wave uses TressAllure's proprietary Effortless Synthetic Fiber™ — a heat-friendly synthetic that responds to curling irons, flat irons, and wands, giving you thermal styling capability without committing to human hair maintenance. The fiber mimics the natural density and movement of fine human hair while avoiding the stiff appearance common in traditional synthetics.
Styling possibilities include:
- Wearing as-delivered — pre-styled with textured layers and feathered fringe
- Adding curls or waves with a curling iron or wand at moderate heat
- Smoothing with a flat iron for a polished, professional finish
- Parting anywhere along the monofilament top for a different look from the same wig
After washing, Effortless Synthetic Fiber™ returns to its original style — no daily re-styling required. For a deeper look at how synthetic and heat-friendly fibers compare, visit the Wig Fiber Guide.
Color Range
New Wave by TressAllure is shown in three colors:
- 24/102/R12 Amber Radiance
- 14/26/R10 Sunset Melt

Who Is New Wave For?
This style is well suited for:

Care & Maintenance
- Washing: Use synthetic wig shampoo and conditioner every 6–8 wears or when product buildup occurs. Handle the lace front gently — no rubbing or twisting.

- Heat Styling: Use thermal tools at moderate settings. Always test on a small hidden section first.
- Storage: Keep on a wig stand, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the New Wave by TressAllure a good option for someone with hair loss?
Yes. New Wave is designed with hair loss wearers in mind. The hand-tied lace front creates an undetectable hairline where hair appears to grow from the scalp, and the monofilament top allows realistic parting at the crown. At 2.71 ounces, the cap is lightweight enough for extended daily wear, and the breathable open weft construction helps prevent discomfort and overheating throughout the day.
Can I use a curling iron or flat iron on New Wave?
Yes. New Wave is built with TressAllure's heat-friendly Effortless Synthetic Fiber™, which supports curling irons, flat irons, and wands. Use thermal tools at moderate settings and test on a small hidden section before styling visible areas. Unlike standard synthetic fibers, this wig does not require you to avoid heat tools, giving you flexibility to change your look as often as you like.
What cap size is the New Wave wig?
New Wave is sized for an average cap with built-in adjusters that accommodate different head sizes within that range. If you're uncertain whether this cap will fit comfortably, MyHairMail's Wig Size Chart provides brand-specific guidance to help you measure and confirm fit before purchasing.
How do I style the bangs on New Wave?
The 3.25-inch feathered fringe is versatile. You can wear the bangs straight forward for full forehead coverage, sweep them to one side for an asymmetrical, softened look, blend them into the side layers for a curtain-bang effect, or add slight lift with a round brush for extra volume. Because the fiber is heat-friendly, light use of a styling tool on the fringe is also an option at moderate temperatures.
How often does the New Wave wig need to be washed?
TressAllure recommends washing New Wave every 6–8 wears or when product buildup is noticeable. Use a shampoo and conditioner formulated for synthetic wigs, handle the lace front gently without rubbing or twisting, and air dry on a wig stand. One of the advantages of Effortless Synthetic Fiber™ is that the style resets after washing — no re-styling session needed unless you want to change your look.
