This is my
yet.
I’m Creative Director of the finest wig
company in the world and it’s the role
of a lifetime for me. I’m Beauty editor,
Style maker, Trend watcher, Chief
nudge… I put everything I know about
beauty, style, and fashion into making
women look even more beautiful.
So now it’s your turn in the spotlight.
This season’s newest looks are
updated—not-so-done classics—
with more natural movement, visible
texture, and enough style to let you
steal any scene!
J ust because you’re all
business doesn’t mean
you can’t be all woman.
This long, luxurious wig
is as feminine as it gets.
Bonus: All-out glam but
still super wearable.

Muse : An all
ime favorite
!
Who wouldn’t take a
shine to this bold gold
statement cuff? It’s
studded with colored
gemstones and adds
major pizzazz to
any outfit.
Want proof that an
overall print looks
good on everyone?
Here it is. Figurehugging, flattering.
Sophisticated and
simple. I’ll take it!
Glam and Glitter
Invest in gold. That’s my financial and fashion
advice! These very modern, hammered gold
earrings are paying big dividends.

RAQUEL
Pump It Up
Are these the sexiest
shoes around? I’d
say so. But these
buckled-up black heels
are tailored enough
to go to the office.
This Creative Director
files in style!
Bold Sunnies
Nothing complements or completes
a look like sunglasses. I like
mine super-sized. Super white.
And super cool.
Watch Out!
Designer chic couldn’t be more
timely. This elegant watch is the
perfect accessory for day/night/
work/play.
Nail Lacquers
Speaking of shades, here are
three of my favorite nail lacquers
for spring. The softest pale pink
for a nude look. The new punch
of metallics for day or night.
TIMELESS
CLASSIC
A woman can be elegant
without being stiff. This
chic salon look is the
polar opposite of (ugh)
yesterday’s helmet
head. Today’s best short
length—but long enough
to allow movement and
add volume. Casual bangs
make flirting a must.

WHAT STYLES ARE
BEST FOR YOUR FACE?
REDUCE WIDTH AT THE SIDES
The Diamond Shaped Face is characterized by a narrow chin and forehead with
wide cheekbones. Diamond shaped faces need n
­ arrow sides and fullness at the chin.
Bobs work very well for this shape. Avoid wearing height on top or volume on the
sides. Use some fringe or bang to cover narrow forehead.
ADD VOLUME AT THE CHIN
The Heart Shaped Face is characterized by a wider forehead (often with a widow’s
peak) and a narrower chin. Bring some hair onto the forehead to disguise its width.
Keep hair close to the head at the eyes but make it slightly full around the jaw, and
below and in front of the earlobes.
ADD SOFTNESS
The Oblong Shaped Face is characterized by a very long, narrow bone structure. The client
who has an oblong facial shape often has a long, thin neck. Use a fringe or half-bang
across the forehead by creating soft waves or curls in the crown and nape areas. This
helps to create the illusion of an oval.
ANYTHING GOES
As the name implies, the Oval Shaped Face is longer than wide, with a jaw that’s
narrower than the cheekbones. Because the oval shaped face has no dominant areas and
is so proportional, this face looks good with just about any hairstyle, length or texture.
ADD VOLUME ABOVE THE JAW LINE
The Pear Shaped Face is characterized by a small or narrow forehead and a rather large,
pouchy-appearing jaw line. Comb hair to add width from the eye level through the crown
of the head. Set and comb hair close to the head on the sides and at the nape.
AVOID WIDTH
The Round Shaped Face is characterized by a wide hairline and fullness below the
cheekbones. The client may be overweight and her neck may appear short. These faces
look very good with a geometric or linear style. Add height, when possible, and long,
wispy side areas to make the cheeks look narrow. Comb hair close to the head on the
side and at the nape.
AVOID STRAIGHT LINES
The Square Shaped Face is characterized by a wide hairline and jaw. Square shaped
faces need height on top and narrowness at the sides. Comb the hair off the forehead to
add height to the face. Curly texture and wisps of hair around the face break the wide,
straight lines common to the square face.

Sheer Indulgence™ Lace Front Monofilament Top
100% Hand-knotted Base
Designed with the hair loss client in mind, this style’s construction is
uniquely crafted to offer this most discriminating woman the ultimate
in wig fashion and comfort. Made to exact specifications, it includes all
the luxury features of our monofilament top Sheer Indulgence™ styles,
plus the added benefit of a 1½” deep, virtually invisible sheer lace front,
and an incredibly light and comfortable 100% hand-knotted base. The
fiber throughout the entire top is individually knotted, one by one, resulting
in a low density, natural looking hairline that provides forward movement
and the look of natural growth. With amazing off-the-face styling versatility
as well as the flexibility to part hair on the left or right or in the center,
you’ll swear the hair is growing right out of the scalp!
Fiber is individually knotted,
one by one, on the entire top
for natural movement and
parting flexibility

Memory Cap
®
Featuring the latest in unique, state-of-the-art wig technology, the
Raquel Welch Memory Cap® offers the ultimate in light comfort and
dependable fit. The Memory Cap® replaces the wide stretch lace used
in most of today’s wigs with a thinner, more resilient stretch material
that actually molds to the shape of the head for a lighter, more secure fit.
Most often made with Comfort Cap® construction (a wide velvet band in
front and the elimination of lace at the crown), this cap is also available
in styles with various monofilament features—depending on the wig’s
style requirements.
