Your Guide to Finding the Most Natural-looking Wig

0

Although it’s a great thing that there are so many wigs to choose from nowadays, it can also make the task of finding the right one that bit harder.  

To help you find the perfect solution for your hair loss journey, here’s what to look for and what to be aware of when searching for human hair wigs in Miami:

Wig materials

Understanding the differences between synthetic wigs (made from man-made materials) and those made from human hair is the most important thing to consider when shopping for a wig, and here’s a brief rundown of them:

Synthetic wigs

·        More affordable than human hair wigs

·        Require less maintenance

·        Lighter in weight

·        Come in a range of colors and styles

Although synthetic wigs are cheaper and easier to maintain, they don’t move as naturally as human hair wigs, cannot be styled using heat tools, and are prone to tangling. Importantly, they also don’t last as long.

Human hair wigs

·        Offer styling versatility

·        Last longer

·        Move more naturally.

Although they will always offer a more natural look because they’re made from real human hair, they cost more and require more maintenance, such as regular washing and styling.

Cap construction

For those new to the world of wigs, you may not realize that wigs come with either a lace front or a full lace cap, which keeps the wig in place and helps it look more natural. Front lace wigs are versatile and allow your hair to be styled away from your face, while full lace wigs offer an even more natural look, hence their higher price tag.

What else should you look for when choosing a wig cap?

Comfort features

You want to feel comfortable when wearing a wig, and the type of wig cap you choose can go a long way to ensuring this. For instance, caps that are constructed using the fully hand-tied method are more lightweight and breathable, and those made from materials such as silk and soft lace give a snugger, more secure fit. You may also look for wig caps that have adjustable straps.

Glueless lace wigs

Typically coming with clips, combs, or adjustable straps, these lace wigs don’t need to be glued and can support a more natural look. If you suffer from a sensitive scalp or don’t want to damage your natural hair with the glue, these caps may be a good choice.

Wig density

This important factor determines the fullness and thickness of the wig’s appearance, and here are the 3 most common wig density levels to choose from:

·        Light (80–100%)—ideal for a natural, casual look with less volume

·        Medium (120130%)—offers moderate volume

·        Heavy (150180%)—offers the most volume

A wig specialist can help you decide which density to opt for if you’re unsure.

Wig sizing

For the best, most comfortable, and secure fit from a wig, your head must be accurately measured. Although you can do this yourself (if you plan to buy a wig online, for example), it’s best to pop into any one of the wig shops in Miami and get measured up there; the best fit comes from the most accurate measurements.

Ultimately, a wig made from 100% human hair is always going to give you the most natural look overall, but there are other factors to consider as well. If you’re finding the options bewildering and don’t really know where to begin, a one-on-one consultation with a wig expert will help you transform your look with ease and prevent you from making the wrong investment.
