Color
The color shown for VIOLET is 8H, part of Henry Margu's highlighted color collection. These multi-tonal shades are blended to create natural-looking depth and dimension that mimics the movement of real hair. Because color can appear slightly different depending on monitor settings, MyHairMail's Color Guide is a helpful resource for narrowing down your ideal shade before ordering.
Styling & Care
The VIOLET by Henry Margu is a ready-to-wear style requiring minimal restyling out of the box. Because it is made from synthetic fibers, direct heat tools such as flat irons or curling wands are generally not compatible unless the fiber is explicitly labeled heat-friendly. Visit the MyHairMail Wig Fiber Guide for detailed guidance on synthetic fiber care and styling limitations.
For washing and upkeep:
- Hand wash in cool water using a wig-specific shampoo
- Gently work product through fibers — do not rub or wring
- Rinse thoroughly, pat dry with a towel
- Air dry on a wig stand to preserve the 24" length and shape
- Avoid heat drying
With consistent, gentle care, a synthetic wig like VIOLET typically lasts four to six months with daily wear — longer with less frequent use.
