Easy Does It by Raquel Welch: A Chic, Low-Maintenance Short Wedge Cut

If you're searching for a stylish short wig that requires almost no effort to wear beautifully, the Easy Does It by Raquel Welch deserves a close look. This contemporary short wedge cut is built around soft, face-framing layers that add fullness and natural movement — giving you a polished, put-together look from the moment you put it on.

Style & Design

Easy Does It is designed as a versatile short wedge. Its layered construction creates volume and shape throughout, while the extended nape adds fullness at the back for a balanced silhouette from every angle. Best of all, the style works two distinct ways with minimal effort:

  • Brushed back: Sweep the layers away from the face for a sleek, sophisticated look.
  • Layers forward: Bring the face-framing layers forward for a playful, piecey, textured finish.

Switching between these looks is easy — especially because the Tru2Life® heat-friendly synthetic fiber supports heat styling up to 350°F. That means flat irons and curling irons are both on the table. For more detail on working with heat-friendly fiber, visit our Wig Fiber Guide.

Cap Construction

Easy Does It combines several premium cap features to deliver comfort as well as a natural appearance:

  • Sheer Indulgence™ Lace Front: Creates an undetectable hairline and allows off-the-face styling options.
  • Monofilament Part: Mimics natural scalp appearance and allows realistic hair movement at the part.
  • Memory Cap® III: Holds its shape and conforms to your head for a secure, consistent fit over time.
  • Velvet-Lined Ear Tabs: Reduce irritation around sensitive areas near the ears.
  • Velvet-Lined Extended Nape: Adds comfort at the neckline while contributing to the style's fullness.

Care & Maintenance

To keep Easy Does It looking its best, wash it every 8–10 wears using a gentle wig shampoo and conditioner — Raquel Welch care products are formulated for Tru2Life® synthetic fiber. Detangle gently before washing, rinse in cool water, and air dry on a wig stand. Avoid rubbing or wringing. Stored properly and cared for consistently, the wig typically lasts 4–6 months with daily wear, or longer with less frequent use.
