Extended Wig Styles

                              A note about mohair. Mohair grows at a rate of about 1" per month.
                        A goat is typically shorn about twice per year. To acquire longer
                             lengths of mohair, the goat is shorn only once a year. This increases
                           the cost to acquire longer lengths of mohair. Additionally, you lose
                                      an inch or so to the wefting. A once a year cutting typically yeilds 10"-11"
                                   of useable mohair. On large extended length wigs, an extension is added
                           requiring a second layer of extended length mohair to create these                                           beautiful wigs.
