Parisian Style

STYLIN here (hair) at Parisian Wig Store. Friendly owner, helpful with a big smile.
Thank you for your help.

This place has a great selection of wigs at excellent prices! The woman who was working the day I went in was super nice and helpful. I went in with a group of friends and she was really patient and attentive. It was a great experience!

I got my hair twisted here a while back and was very satisfied with the results. I was concerned about rough treatment of my hair (an issue for people with highly textured hair), but the stylist knew exactly how to work with it. Like others have stated, the owner is very friendly and helpful (I made the mistake of going a day before Halloween so it was super busy, but still had my hair finished in a reasonable amount of time). There are not a whole lot of hair braiding places in that area so it was a great find!

Looking for a wig to turn you into Katy Perry during her blue-​hair phase? Or perhaps Uma Thurman circa Pulp Fiction? Or maybe just a rainbow-​striped clown wig that will make everyone laugh? You’ve come to the right place!
I have returned here several times to buy wigs for Halloween costumes and other general mischief. As noted in other reviews, this shop carries a mix of human-​hair wigs at reasonable prices, and cheaper but still good quality synthetic wigs. What a selection – literally all the colors of the rainbow!
The owner is such a sweetheart. When was the last time you had a shopping experience that was FUN? She obviously loves her products and will happily watch you try on one after the other, oohing and ahhing over your latest wig choice, well past the point where most salespeople would be thinking, «Enough already, buy something!»
I have also bought clothes here… not super high quality, but very fashionable, at incredibly low prices. Why spend $ 200 on skinny jeans when they’re on the way out anyway? Here you can get them for $ 30!
It is true that the owner is often occupied with styling customers’ hair, and she does not seem to have other people working in the store (or hasn’t any time that I’ve been there). But she does a good job of going back and forth, keeping both people happy… and there has never been more than one other customer in the store, any time that I’ve shopped there. When you come out of the dressing room to ask what she thinks about a particular dress, you feel like you are in a one-​woman catwalk show, with both the owner and the woman getting her hair styled cooing, «Oh honey, that looks good on YOU!» Every time I’m here, I just get the sense that people are having a good time. And we could all use a little more of that in our lives.
I have also bought party dresses here (cocktail attire/​wedding, not ball gown). They are cheap and relatively low quality, but I have been very happy with them… They look nice and these tend to be the kind of dresses you buy for a special occasion and only wear once anyway. This store has some really fun and unique styles.

My first trip to this store, they were closed when the sign on the door said they should be open. That left me a bit annoyed, because i feel if a shop tends to make their own hours, they shouldnt keep hours posted in the window. BUT, they have great reviews and the window display is super impressive, so I went back, after calling first. The woman who owns the place is very nice and helpful and listens to what you need and want in a wig. There are ‘normal looking wigs’ and more costume like funky colored ones. Even the non human hair ones are very high quality. I’m happy with my purchase from here. we even discussed a few suggestions that might help stop the itching i always feel from wigs.

I am very very happy with my purchase from Parisian Style. I needed a wig for a costume that I’d be wearing 4 days/​week for the entire month of October. I work at a scare park and needed something that wouldn’t fall apart or look too fake/​cheap, but it couldn’t be too expensive. It also needed to handle my mini top hat fastened with a comb and small barrettes.
Well, I’m 4 weeks in and the wig has been amazing. So many people actually thought it was my real hair! It fits great, keeps its style well, and my hat has never come loose. All I do is finger comb it. Did I mention it’s human hair? Way less itchy than those plastic hair wigs. So how much did I pay for this? Only $ 35!!!
I will say that I didn’t think the service was great, but not bad enough to bring it down a star. The woman who I assumed was the owner was unraveling another woman’s braids the entire time I was in there and didn’t help me much. However, the layout of the store was pretty simple and I was able to try on the wig before I bought it. (She had me put on a wig cap)
I’m now in love with this place. Everyone has asked me where I got my wig and they want to go as well. It’s totally worth it to spend $ 35 on a really good wig than $ 19 at a costume store for a really awful looking one. I also purchased a wig stand for $ 5 and the wig cap she gave me was free.
Wonderful place! I hope some of you choose to shop here.

I needed a wig for a performance and found the PERFECT wig here about a month ago. The owner was very helpful and taught me how to put it on and use the clips it came with.
I had gone to another store the previous day and found wigs that were okay, but none were the quality of the one I got at Parisian. The wig is so natural-​looking that I wear it sometimes when I just feel like being someone else or when I’m having a bad hair day.
I will definitely go here again if I ever need another wig.

Also, S.P.D., Unilocal is not for whether or not another place affects somewhere else you’ve been that’s chic and overpriced, but your actual review of an actual place. Nothing you’ve written is a direct review of the place, and now you’ve given this actually pretty fantastic wig shop THAT YOU’VE NEVER BEEN TO the lowest rating it could get on a site that people use to see where they bring their business. That’s some pretty shameful shit right there.
As I HAVE been to Parisian Style, I will note that, as a performer who uses wigs, this is a great place to find wigs. If you’re just the once-​a-​year-​wig-​in-​a-​bag-​on-​Halloween type, then you could find what you’re looking for too, but if you’re serious, they have great extensions and wigs, and the woman who runs the place is very friendly. They seem to service many people of color with wigs and extensions, from what I can tell. If you’re a performer and you need a wig, I actually go here more than I would go to the Garment District.
