Flirting with Fashion by Raquel Welch: Long Layered Style With Sheer Indulgence™ Lace Front and Monofilament Top

Meta Description: Flirting with Fashion by Raquel Welch is a long layered style to mid-back featuring Sheer Indulgence™ lace front, monofilament top, and Tru2Life® heat-friendly fiber up to 350°F—luxurious length with styling versatility.


Flirting with Fashion delivers the long, flowing layers that shorter styles can't provide—cascading to mid-back with soft, feminine movement. The Tru2Life® heat-friendly fiber accepts styling tools up to 350°F, so you can wear it straight today, curled tomorrow, or pinned into an elegant updo for evening events.

With Sheer Indulgence™ lace front and monofilament top, this is Raquel Welch's premium construction in a truly long silhouette.

What Is Flirting with Fashion by Raquel Welch?

Flirting with Fashion is a long layered style from Raquel Welch featuring dual premium construction: Sheer Indulgence™ lace front for invisible hairline and monofilament top for natural scalp appearance with parting versatility.

The long, luxurious layers extend to mid-back, creating a soft, feminine silhouette with movement and dimension throughout. The Tru2Life® heat-friendly fiber allows customization with heated styling tools.

Key distinction: This is Raquel Welch's LONG option. While Curve Appeal, Play it Straight, and Star Quality are shorter styles, Flirting with Fashion provides substantial length for women wanting flowing, mid-back hair.

The Dual Premium Construction

Flirting with Fashion combines two of Raquel Welch's most advanced technologies:

Sheer Indulgence™ Lace Front: Invisible Hairline

Raquel Welch's Sheer Indulgence™ lace front creates an undetectable hairline with individually hand-tied hairs:

  • Natural hair growth appearance along the entire front
  • Off-the-face styling capability
  • Confident wear during selfies, video calls, and close conversation
  • Push hair back, tuck behind ears, or style away from forehead

Monofilament Top: Natural Scalp and Parting Freedom

The hand-tied monofilament top provides:

  • Completely realistic scalp appearance at the crown
  • Multi-directional parting flexibility
  • Natural-looking hair growth from any angle
  • Confidence under any lighting condition
  • Ability to create updos showing the "scalp"

The combination of Sheer Indulgence™ lace front AND monofilament top represents Raquel Welch's premium construction tier.

Tru2Life® Heat-Friendly Fiber: 350°F Styling

Flirting with Fashion's Tru2Life® fiber accepts heat styling up to 350°F (177°C)—among the highest heat tolerances in synthetic wigs.

What you can do:

  • Straighten for sleek, polished finish
  • Curl with curling iron for romantic waves
  • Add beachy texture with wand
  • Create bouncy blowout styling
  • Pin into elegant updos

What you keep from synthetic:

  • Pre-styled layers return after washing
  • Humidity resistance
  • Color stability without fading
  • Simplified care compared to human hair

The styling math: One wig = unlimited looks. Straight for work Monday, curled for date night Friday, pinned up for Saturday wedding—all from the same piece.

Why Long Length Matters

Flirting with Fashion fills a specific need: substantial length with premium construction.

Length Category Raquel Welch Options Best For
Short (various short styles) Low maintenance, contemporary
Bob/Mid-length Curve Appeal, Play it Straight, Star Quality Versatile, polished
Long Flirting with Fashion Maximum length, feminine flow

Many premium wigs are shorter. Flirting with Fashion specifically serves women wanting long, flowing hair with Raquel Welch quality.

Choose Flirting with Fashion if: You want long, flowing layers with maximum styling versatility including updos.

Choose shorter styles if: You prefer contemporary bobs or medium-length cuts with less maintenance.

The Long Layered Silhouette

Flirting with Fashion's layered structure creates:

Soft movement: Long layers shift and flow naturally as you move, creating romantic, feminine aesthetic.

Dimensional volume: Layering prevents heavy, flat appearance that one-length long hair can create.

Face framing: Strategic layers frame the face while longer lengths cascade down the back.

Versatile styling: The layered structure accepts straight, wavy, and curled styling equally well.

Adjustable Fit for Security

Flirting with Fashion includes adjustable straps for personalized fit:

  • Customize fit within the average cap size range
  • Tighten for more secure positioning
  • Loosen for comfort during extended wear
  • Essential for long styles that catch wind and movement

Long wigs benefit significantly from secure fit—adjustable straps prevent shifting during active wear.

Face Shape Compatibility

Oval: Long layers complement balanced oval proportions beautifully. Complete styling freedom with this versatile length.

Round: The vertical lines of long hair create elongation. Layers add dimension without adding width. Avoid center parts; side parts are more flattering.

Square: Soft, flowing layers contrast with angular features. The long length draws attention downward, balancing strong jawlines.

Heart: Long layers add visual weight below the cheekbones to balance wider foreheads. The flowing silhouette creates proportion.

Long/Oblong: Long hair can elongate further—add volume and waves to create horizontal dimension. Avoid ultra-straight styling.

Diamond: The long layers frame cheekbones while adding softness. Consider adding waves for width at jawline and forehead.

Who Should Choose Flirting with Fashion?

Ideal candidates:

  • Women wanting long, flowing hair (mid-back length)
  • Those seeking maximum styling versatility (straight, curled, updos)
  • Premium construction priority (lace front + mono top)
  • Heat-styling enthusiasts (350°F capability)
  • Special occasions requiring elegant updo options
  • Anyone wanting feminine, romantic aesthetic
  • Medical hair loss requiring long, natural coverage

When to consider alternatives:

  • Preference for shorter, lower-maintenance styles
  • Discomfort with long hair weight or warmth
  • Need for petite or large cap sizes
  • Want for bangs (Flirting with Fashion has no bangs; consider Star Quality)

Styling Versatility

Flowing and straight: Wear the long layers as delivered for sleek sophistication.

Romantic curls: Use curling iron to add soft waves throughout for feminine elegance.

Beachy texture: Create loose, relaxed waves for bohemian aesthetic.

Elegant updo: Pin into chignon, French twist, or loose bun—the monofilament top shows realistic scalp.

Half-up styles: Pull top section back while showcasing length below.

Braided looks: The length accommodates braids, twists, and woven styles.

The combination of long length + heat-friendly fiber + monofilament top creates more styling options than shorter or non-heat-friendly alternatives.

Caring for Flirting with Fashion

Washing (every 8-12 wears):

  • Use synthetic-specific wig shampoo and conditioner
  • Gently swish in cool water—never rub or wring
  • Be especially gentle with long lengths to prevent tangling
  • Air dry on wig stand
  • Pre-styled layers return automatically

Heat styling:

  • Never exceed 350°F (177°C)
  • Test on small section first
  • Use heat protectant spray designed for synthetic wigs
  • Work in sections for long lengths
  • Allow fiber to cool before brushing

Detangling long lengths:

  • Start at ends, work upward
  • Use wide-tooth comb or wig brush
  • Never pull through tangles—work gently
  • Detangle before washing and after drying

Storage:

  • Store on wig stand to maintain shape and prevent tangling
  • Keep away from heat sources
  • Never store while damp
  • Consider a wig hanger for long styles

Expected lifespan: 4-6 months with regular wear; longer with occasional wear and proper care. Long styles may require slightly more maintenance attention than shorter alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Flirting with Fashion heat-friendly?

Yes. Flirting with Fashion uses Tru2Life® fiber, which accepts heat styling up to 350°F (177°C). You can straighten, curl, or customize the long layers.

How long is Flirting with Fashion?

Mid-back length with long, flowing layers throughout. This is Raquel Welch's long option—significantly longer than Curve Appeal, Play it Straight, or Star Quality.

Does Flirting with Fashion have a monofilament top?

Yes. Flirting with Fashion features monofilament top construction, which provides realistic scalp appearance and multi-directional parting flexibility. This also allows for updos that show the "scalp" naturally.

Can I put Flirting with Fashion in an updo?

Yes. The combination of long length and monofilament top makes Flirting with Fashion ideal for updos. The monofilament creates realistic scalp appearance when hair is pinned up, unlike wefted constructions that would show wig structure.

Does Flirting with Fashion have bangs?

No. Flirting with Fashion is designed without bangs for maximum styling versatility. If you want bangs with Raquel Welch construction, consider Star Quality.

What's the difference between Flirting with Fashion and shorter Raquel Welch styles?

Length is the primary difference. Flirting with Fashion extends to mid-back with flowing layers, while Curve Appeal, Play it Straight, and Star Quality are bob to medium lengths. Flirting with Fashion also has monofilament TOP (not just mono part), enabling updos with realistic scalp appearance.

Is long synthetic hair heavier than short?

Yes, somewhat. However, Flirting with Fashion uses lightweight construction and Tru2Life® fiber to minimize weight. The adjustable straps help secure the fit for comfortable extended wear.

Will long synthetic hair tangle easily?

Long synthetic hair requires slightly more care attention than short styles. Proper storage on a wig stand, gentle handling, and starting detangling from the ends prevents most tangling issues.

What cap sizes does Flirting with Fashion come in?

Average size with adjustable straps for personalized fit within that range.

Can I color Flirting with Fashion?

No. Tru2Life® is synthetic fiber and cannot be colored with traditional hair dye. The color is permanent throughout the wig's lifespan—which means no fading but also no customization.

The Bottom Line on Flirting with Fashion

Flirting with Fashion delivers long, flowing layers in Raquel Welch's premium construction. The Sheer Indulgence™ lace front creates an invisible hairline. The monofilament top provides realistic scalp appearance with parting freedom and updo capability. The Tru2Life® fiber (350°F) allows straightening, curling, and complete style customization.

This is the choice for women wanting substantial length—mid-back hair with feminine flow—without sacrificing premium construction or styling versatility. One wig provides straight looks, curled looks, and elegant updos.

For women seeking long, luxurious layers with maximum versatility, Flirting with Fashion delivers romantic sophistication that shorter styles simply cannot match.
