How To Choose Wig For the Beginner?

There are many types of wigs, and sometimes it is difficult for beginners to decide which wig is more suitable. This article will help you understand the different options of wigs available in the market so that you can make better decisions when buying a wig. 

I. Wig Material

The main decision you face here is between human hair wigs and synthetic hair wigs.

1. Human Hair Wig

Benefits: It has a more natural look. Human hair wigs are versatile ----can be styled, cut, permed, or dyed. It is more durable and longer lasting than synthetic wigs.

Limitations: It is more expensive than synthetic hair. And it needs more care and has to be shampooed, blow-dried, conditioned, and styled.

2. Synthetic Hair Wig

Benefits: A Synthetic hair wig also look very natural and don't require us to spend a lot of time and effort maintaining it. It is more affordable than human hair wigs.

Limitations: Its color and style cannot be changed. It has to be kept away from any heat sources and is not as durable as a human hair wig----a synthetic hair wig has a lifespan of about a year.

When choosing a wig, it's important to consider all the details, as each type of wig fiber has advantages and disadvantages. Weighing the pros and cons of each type will help you choose the best wig fiber for you.

II. Wig Caps

There are two main types of caps used in wig construction. Different wig caps perform different functions. Let us provide you with all the details below:

1. Non-lace or machine-made wigs

This type of wig is less difficult to produce, so they are less expensive. If your budget is relatively low, you can choose a non-lace wig. Non-lace wigs often don't show off your natural hairline and a clear part line. But this kind of wig is not a defective product. It can create a more beautiful appearance through some accessories or designs, such as headband wigs, wigs with bangs, v part wigs, and u part wigs.

2. Lace wigs

The lace part of a wig is what mimics a human scalp. It attaches to the cap of the wig, and it creates a realistic hairline natural look. Because of this, lace wigs are becoming more and more popular. The front of the wig, or the entire cap of the wig can be made of lace. The lace part of the wig needs to be handmade, that is to say, strands of hair are fixed on the lace by hand one by one. This is a very time-consuming activity and therefore costs much more than non-lace wigs. 

3.Wig cap tips 

The more lace a wig has, the more styling options you can create and the more difficult it is to install the wig. You need to constantly improve your ability to install wigs. Knowing which cap features you prefer will help you choose a wig style that better suits your needs. A popular choice among wig wearers is the lace front wig. You can get a natural look while staying cool and comfortable.

4. How to measure your wig cap size?

If your wig cap is too small, it won't fit on your head. If it is too large, it may be obvious that you are wearing a wig. In order to choose the right hair cap, you need to use a tailoring measuring tape or plastic tape to measure the circumference of your head. Use the chart below to help you choose the correct hat size.

1) Measure around head: Starting in the front at your natural hairline, follow along your hairline just above your ear.

2) Front to back: Measure from the front of your natural hairline back over the crown, where your head bends and meets the back of your neck.

3) Ear to ear: Start in front of one ear, bringing your tape measure over the crown to the front of other ear.

To make sure your measurements are accurate, try taking at least three measurements to make sure your numbers are consistent.

III. Wig Color

Buying a wig is an emotional experience. Whichever color you choose, we know you'll look great. Because you chose the color that makes you feel most confident. If there's one certain thing, it's confidence radiates! Next, I will show you how to choose a wig color.

1. Compliment your Skin Tones

Dark Skin Tones: Choose light-color wigs or dark hair colors and other rich colors to create a contrast between dark skin tones.

Olive skin: Balance your green undertones with toasty tones or richer browns. Add subtle gold or honey highlights for extra depth.

Fair: The lighter your skin tone, the better your hair will match. Strawberry Blonde, Butterscotch, and Honey complement your complexion and cast a soft glow on your face.

2. Use Colors that Bring out your Eyes

If your eyes are golden brown, green, hazel, or light blue, choose a wig with dark brown or golden brown, chestnut, auburn, or red highlights. 

If your eye color is dark brown, dark blue, blue-gray, or dark hazel, choose a wig with more natural colors, such as shades of black, brown, and blonde.

3. Consider your natural hair color

Wig color no more than 2 shades lighter or darker than your natural hair color, otherwise it might look too dramatic. You can always add highlights or gradually change the color over time.

IV. Wig Density

Wig density is a measure of the fullness of the wig. It is displayed as a percentage and ranges from the lowest hair density (50-60%) to higher hair density (200% and above). In general, the lower the density of the wig, the thinner the hair will appear. The higher the density of the wig, the fuller the hair will look.

Choosing the suitable density requires consideration of several factors, including your preferred hairstyles, length preference, and more. 

1.Hairstyle and Length Preference

When you're shopping for a new wig, you have to consider whether the hair will be short, long, curly, or wavy. Different textures and lengths can also make a difference in the appearance of the wig. High-density wigs are suitable for long straight hair. Low-density wigs are suitable for short hair.

2. How to choose wig density?

Essentially, your best bet is to buy a wig that is the same density as your natural hair. Otherwise, people will notice that you are wearing a wig. Matching hair density can improve head comfort and avoid scalp damage. If you have fine hair, choose a wig with a density close to your hair density, around 130% to 150%. But if your hair is thicker and fuller, you should choose a high-density wig of about 190% or 250%.

3. Consider Hair Texture

Consider the hair texture you want for your wig. For example, curly-textured wigs look fuller. Therefore, when choosing a wig density, curly wigs do not require a higher density than buying straight hair wigs.

V. Wig Length

Having the perfect hairstyle is every woman's wish. With hundreds of wigs on the market, finding the perfect one can be a challenge. Therefore, when choosing a wig, not only the texture, color, density, etc. of the wig must be considered, but also the length of the wig.

1. Classification of wig length

The choice of wig length is mainly based on comfort, lifestyle, and style preferences. There are three length categories:

Short wigs ----This tape of wig frames the face and lay at the nape of the neck.

Medium-length wigs----The length is generally around the shoulders.

Long wigs----Wigs fall past the shoulders, and are approximately 16 inches or longer.

2. How to choose wig length?

1) Face shape

Face shape is an important consideration when choosing a wig length. If you have an oval face, you can wear wigs of almost any length. On the other hand, if you have a round face, longer lengths will be more flattering. If you have a rectangular face, short layered styles are best for you.

2) Height

If you are short, medium-length wigs will make you look taller. On the other hand, if you are tall, long wigs will make you appear shorter.

3) Body shape

Tall and slim girls should wear wigs with medium-length wigs. This will help you achieve a more feminine look. However, if you choose a hair length that is shorter than your chin, it will look less attractive. On the other hand, if you are short in stature, you should go for a bob as it makes you appear taller than you are.

4) Lifestyle

If you lead an active lifestyle, you should choose shorter wigs to avoid hair touching the shoulders, neck, and back.

3. Wig length tips

One of the best tips when shopping for a new wig is to always make an inch longer than you need. You can easily trim off an inch if you need to, but if your new wig is too short, things will be more difficult! Don't be afraid to experiment with different lengths. You never know what a wig will look like until you try it on yourself. It's important to buy a wig from a supplier who has years of knowledge and experience and can help you discover the best wig for you.
