If you're looking for a quick, easy and fuss- free way to completely change your look- why not try a wig?! There's no chemicals or hours sat in the salon chair, no risk of damaging your own locks and if you don't like it (or dont want to wear it the same way every day) it's just as easy to remove it. Wigs really are a win- win! If you're considering going down this route and having some fun with your look, heres what you need you know.
Look at different varieties
There are all kinds of wigs on the market. From full lace wigs to various hairpieces such as clip in ponytails and other options, first work out what it is you want from your hair. Do you want to completely change your look, do you just want to add some length and volume, do you want to play around with new styles? This will help you narrow down your choice.
2. Genuine is essential
Always buy human hair over synthetic. There are lots of very cheap synthetic options but they simply won't last- it will also look unnatural. Real human hair is more expensive but you can style it with heat, brush it, even colour it or do anything you would to your own hair. It will last for a long time so will make it worth the investment. Look for wholesale virgin hair vendors when you're buying your wig.
3. Hair care
Even if you buy human hair lace front wigs or hairpieces, these will require a little extra care than your own hair. This is because they're more prone to drying and damage since they receive no oils from the scalp. Some gentle shampoo and a good conditioner will keep it looking good for longer. Very long wigs will do better with a brush designed for long hair too to prevent tangles.
4. Enjoy
Enjoy your new look! Have fun playing with whole new personas and totally transform yourself, or just give yourself a confidence boost with a little extra hair to play around with. If your hair is short or thin, you'll be amazed by how many more styles and looks you're able to do when your have more hair!
