Fit & Comfort

The machine-made cap on Nico by Rene of Paris is built for everyday comfort. Adjustable tabs at the back nape let you fine-tune the fit, and the average cap size accommodates most wearers without modification. At just 3.53 oz, it's lightweight enough for extended wear — a practical quality for anyone with scalp sensitivity or hair loss.

If you're unsure whether the average cap size will work for your head circumference, the MyHairMail Wig Size Chart by Brand includes detailed Rene of Paris measurements to help you confirm before purchasing.

Styling & Care

Because Nico uses standard synthetic fiber, it is not heat-friendly. Curling irons, flat irons, and blow dryers should not be used. The good news: the style arrives ready-to-wear, so no heat is needed to achieve its signature straight bob look.

For upkeep, wash every 10–15 wears using a sulfate-free synthetic wig shampoo and cool water. Gently swish, rinse thoroughly, and air dry on a wig stand. A light application of synthetic wig conditioning spray between washes helps maintain softness and reduce frizz. For a deeper dive into fiber types, visit the MyHairMail Wig Fiber Guide.
