Looks and feels like the real thing. Because it is.

OUR STORY

From mythical to magical.

As a long-time wig wearer, I was never truly happy with the wigs I found around me: uncomfortable, unwearable, unbeautiful. (I’ve always been obsessive about the details; maybe it’s the French girl inside of me.)

I learned the craft from some of the world’s top wig technicians, from choosing quality hair to sewing in wefts to hand-stitching the lace. As I grew more experienced, I gained control over the process, learning how to adjust, refine, and customize to unseen-before perfection.

Now, I’m fulfilling my dream: making wigs for people that want to love wearing their wigs. Style, comfort, and utterly flawless beauty are all within your reach.

Not made. Crafted.

Ethically sourced, hand-selected virgin hair. Invisible laces that make your wig virtually undetectable. Innovative weft distribution techniques for wear-all-day comfort. Shani Wigs pushes the boundaries of wig-making technology. You simply must see it, wear it, and feel it to believe it.

Our atelier is not a factory.

To create our pieces, we don’t use factories at all. Each one is lovingly imagined and designed by Shani herself – and carefully assembled by our expert wig technicians. And it all happens in our Brooklyn, NY-based atelier.

THE PROCESS

We start from scratch.

From choosing wefts to the final cut, each piece goes through a journey. Hover over an image to view each part of the process.

1. SELECTING

We select bundles of hair from ethical hair suppliers, going through hundreds of kilos at a time to find bundles that match our quality standards. Individual strands from each bundle are tested to ensure strength and elasticity.

2. CLEANING

And no, we don’t mean shampooing. Cleaning refers to the painstaking process of manually separating bundles according to length, color, and texture. This is the point where we decide what the wig will look like: length, density, and color.

3. SEWING

Time to connect the pieces. We create wefts and sew them down into a custom-sized cap, creating regions of fullness and flatness to mimic real hair (and allowing for that perfect ear tuck). Lace top, skin top, lace front: those decisions happen now.

4. PERFECTING

Once a client has made a selection, we finish the hairline and cut for that face-framing final touch. If needed, we’ll add color like highlights, rooting, or balayage, and style it to our clients’ desires. Voila: the perfect wig is born.

People don’t believe me when I tell them I’m wearing a wig! I only wear my Shani now!

People don’t believe me when I tell them that I wear a wig. I can’t wear any other wigs now that I have a Shani!

I can’t believe how well this wig matches my hair – and how comfortable the cap is!

It’s usually very hard to match my blond hair. I can’t believe this wig matches my hair so well. The quality and cap feels amazing. Thank you Shani!

Esti P.

Even in Florida’s brutal humidity, this wig feels weightless on my head.

The comfort is unparalleled. I don’t feel like I have a wig on, even in this Florida heat. I love my new wig!
