I doubt you can identify shaitels from how they look. I’ve generally stayed with the same shaitel macher as I know her quality and trust her to give me what I want (with the exception of one or two shaitels that I bought on sale elsewhere). I wouldn’t even know my own shaitel macher’s shaitels, though. Once they’re on a head, you can’t see how it was measured to fit, how it matched the request of the customer in terms of texture, weight, color, etc.
