Upstage by Raquel Welch | Large Cap: A Timeless Mid-Length Style Built for Bold Elegance
The Upstage by Raquel Welch | Large Cap is a premium synthetic wig designed to deliver a polished, mid-length page cut with softly layered waves — a look that moves effortlessly from everyday wear to special occasions. Combining a 100% hand-tied base, a Sheer Indulgence™ temple-to-temple sheer lace front, and a monofilament top, this wig brings together three of the most sought-after construction features in a single, wearable style.
Cap Construction
The Upstage Large cap is built with a premium multi-feature construction that prioritizes both a natural appearance and all-day comfort:
- 100% Hand-Tied Base: Every strand is individually knotted by hand, allowing the hair to move naturally in every direction and delivering a lifelike finish against the scalp.
- Sheer Indulgence™ Temple-to-Temple Lace Front: The sheer lace front creates a seamless, undetectable hairline — perfect for off-the-face styling and natural blending.
- Monofilament Top: The monofilament top allows multi-directional parting, mimicking the look of real hair growth for a realistic scalp appearance anywhere you choose to part.
The Large cap size is specifically designed for those with a broader head circumference. To confirm your fit before purchasing, reference the Wig Size Chart by Brand for Raquel Welch-specific measurements.
Fiber & Styling
The Upstage by Raquel Welch features Tru2Life® heat-friendly synthetic fiber, which can be styled with flat irons, curling irons, or a diffuser at temperatures up to 350°F (177°C). Straighten for a sleek, professional finish or add waves and volume for a softer look — the choice is yours. Always use a heat protectant and avoid exceeding the recommended temperature to protect the fibers.
