‘RADSHAPE’ RECYCLABLE SYNTHETIC WIGS, BY RADSWAN
Events of the past year have highlighted the need for a more inclusive and more sustainable approach across many industries, and beauty and grooming is no exception. Radswan is answering both calls, as the first brand to offer Black women wigs made from 100 per cent recyclable fibres. The ‘Radshape’ wigs come in three different styles – from large, bouncy ringlets to tight corkscrew curls – in two shades, complete with a list of instructions explaining how to adjust, measure and cut each wig for unique styling. Says
Radswan founder Freddie Harrel, ‘Hair is one of the ways we’ve always expressed ourselves, forever reintroducing our various angles to a constrained and biased world’. The wigs’ fibres are soft, lightweight, flame-retardant and heat-resistant, and mimic the texture of natural hair. By offering high-quality synthetic hair, Harrel hopes to provide an accessible, creative alternative to human hair, the trade of which is sometimes operated by unethical suppliers. ‘Radshape’ wigs, from £76, radswan.com
