At just 4.06 oz, Astrid sits lightly on the head and stays comfortable during extended wear. The average-size cap with adjustable nape tabs means you can fine-tune the fit without adhesives — making it a practical option for those experiencing hair thinning or hair loss as well.

Caring for Your Astrid Wig

Because Astrid is made from standard synthetic fiber, it should not be exposed to flat irons, curling irons, or other high-heat styling tools. The bob cut and fringe come pre-styled and hold their shape wash after wash with no heat required. For guidance on synthetic versus heat-friendly fiber options, visit the MyHairMail Wig Fiber Guide.

For regular wearers, gentle washing every 6–8 wears is recommended. Use a sulfate-free synthetic wig shampoo, swish gently in cool water, rinse thoroughly, apply a wig conditioner, and air-dry on a wig stand. Avoid wringing or heat-drying to preserve the bob's shape.

Choosing Your Color & Confirming Your Fit

Astrid by Rene of Paris is offered in a range of synthetic wig shades. Because colors can appear differently on screen than in person, the MyHairMail Color Guide Tool lets you compare shades side by side to find the most flattering option for your skin tone.
