How much do the Monique wigs stretch?

Aug 25, 2011

    1. Hey guys,

      I've been told time and again that Monique wigs will stretch. Currently I've got a doll on the way that's 8.4 inch (around 21.5 cm) in head circumference. Recommended size is 8-9 but I know for a fact that Iplehouse dolls have narrower face and often looks drowned in their own size wig. So the question is, how much would a Monique wig stretch? Thinking of getting him size 7/8.

      Also thinking of getting my MSD a 6/7 (she's listed as 7/8 wig)

      Cheers for any help :)

      PS: Any other dealer for Monique besides Jpop?
       
    2. In my experience, the Monique Gold series stretches extremely well, moreover, holds in place quite nicely even when stretched to the limit due to the silicone strip. The regular Monique wigs, while also being of excellent quality, sometimes have a little adjustment strip with a velcro in the back, so in effect they are larger than the indicated size and can be tightened to fit a smaller head (plus/minus a size or two)

      As far as dealership, I always buy directly from Monique, the selection is spectacular, everything is always in stock and they deliver lightning-fast. Can't sing enough praises to this company.
       
    3. I have several Monique Gold wigs, and I've put a couple of them on dolls with a bigger head that the wig was intended for (a 6/7 on my Zaoll Luv and a 7/8 on a Pullip Taeyang). The wigs stretched out quite well, and in fact the rather snug fit prevented from slipping away. So I'd say they'd stretch out up to one size bigger (but I doubt they'll go beyond that: I can't fit the 6/7 wig on my Elfdoll Bambu, who has a head with a circumference of about 19.5cm).

      Apart from Jpop, other dealers I know of are Audrey's Dolls (they're having a 50% off sale on some of their Monique Gold wigs, by the way), Facets by Marcia, My Favorite Doll, and Juju's Dolly Mall. I've only bought from Juju's out of all these stores, though.
       
    4. I use Monique wigs in 7/8 on my Elfdoll Rainy and Iplehouse SID girls. They work quite well.
