We LOVE wearing both synthetic and natural human hair wigs. But if we're honest, we would rather not have the whole world know when we're wearing a wig. A wig can instantly change one's appearance and offers a great deal of flexibility when it comes to hairstyle, color, and length. Many women who care about their beauty live without real human wigs today. Maybe you decided on long silky black hair that shines in the sunlight or instead picked spunky short hair with a bit of a curl. Perhaps you chose wavy blond locks that you can braid or went for the long bangs to contour your face. Just like with your natural hair, you can have a professional stylist trim your wig to create a look that best compliments your face shape. This will make the style appear more natural. For the best results, have your stylist trim the wig while you are wearing it.

Do you know the proper way to put on a wig? Whether you have long hair or short hair, we'll show you some tips and tricks to keep your wig securely in place. If you are new to wigs, this breezy tutorial will be a big help!

You could put a microscope up to the best wigs in Hollywood and still not be able to detect whether they're growing from the scalp or not — they're that good. That seamlessness is what most people desire when picking out a wig. Unless that is, you're going for a theatric, avant-garde style or costume.

But if you're wearing a wig as a daily protective style, you want your wig to look as natural as possible. But most people don't have a celebrity stylist on call to create a flawless fit. So, aside from slipping a lace front over your natural hair — where the heck do you even begin?

Things You'll Need

Flesh-colored wig cap

Human hair wig

Scissors

Scalp protector

Wig adhesive

Small adhesive brush

How to put on a wig step by step?

Step 1:Preparation

Wash your scalp with soap and water to ensure the application area is oil-free. Spray scalp protector directly on your head to act as a barrier between your skin and the adhesive.

Apply adhesive with the brush to areas onto which the wig will attach. Using the cool air setting, blow-dry the adhesive for about 30 seconds.

Place the front part of the wig on your forehead and press firmly with both hands for at least 60 seconds. Attach the sides to the matching areas on your scalp and press firmly again for another minute.

Step 2:Trim the lace on the full lace wig

Trim the lace on the full lace wig. This only needs to be done the first time you use your wig, and it does not need to be done if the lace has already been trimmed by the manufacturer. To trim the lace, put the wig on your head. Use hair clips to fasten the wig hair back away from your scalp line.

Trim any lace that sticks out past the wig hairline using a pair of sharp scissors. Cut small amounts of lace at a time to avoid accidentally cutting too much. Be careful not to cut any of the wig hair. Leave a little bit of lace sticking out past the wig hairline, but no more than 1 inch.

Step 3:Protect your skin

Clean the skin by your hairline with a cotton ball dampened with isopropyl alcohol to remove body oils that could prevent the wig adhesive from sticking properly.

Meanwhile, Apply scalp protector to the skin by your hairline. This only is necessary if you have sensitive skin.

Step 4:Apply Adhesive

With your fingers, apply your favorite edge control product or gel to lay down your edges to perfection.

If using adhesive glue, apply a thin layer to the entire hairline using a small makeup brush or cosmetic stick. If using a soft bond adhesive, don't apply the wig immediately. Wait until the glue has become tacky. If using a hard bond adhesive, the wig can be applied immediately, as this type of glue bonds immediately.

Step 5:Attach the Wig

Line the wig part up as desired and use the wig combs to secure it onto your hair. Make sure not to pull too tight!

Those attaching a wig with glue should start by attaching the wig at the hairline in the front middle of the forehead. Gently press the edge of the wig down against the glued skin, working around the hairline until it is attached around the entire hairline.

Step 6:Style your wig

Pull the wig down and adjust as necessary. Flat ironing can help smooth down the top to mimic your hair. Press down on the edges of the wig for five seconds to make the adhesive stick to your skin. Style the wig as desired.

Position the lace frontal wig on your head. The easiest way to find the front-center of the wig is to part the hair on the wig. Parting the hair will reveal the hairline. The middle of the wig hairline should line up with the middle of your forehead at your hairline.

Here are our cosmetologist's top tips for making your wig look like natural hair.

1.Replace Your Wig Regularly

The best way to broadcast to the world that you're wearing a wig is to wear an old smelly wig.

Unfortunately, no one has invented a wig that grows new hair yet, so we're stuck with wigs that lose their quality over time.No matter how hard you wish, no amount of wig styling products or cap adjustments can save a wig that's past its prime.

Plan to replace your synthetic wigs every 3 to 6 months and replace your human hair wigs every 6 to 12 months.

2.Two Words: Rooted.Colors.

Unless you naturally have very dark hair, it's unlikely that your hair is just one color.

Most people have shades of color and gradients throughout their hair.

Your stylist calls those gradients “dimension.” We call them “the reason wigs dyed with one flat color look really fake.”

Wigs with rooted colors, on the other hand, mimic the natural gradients in bio hair by blending several colors.

Can't find a wig that you like with rooted colors? Look for a wig that is a ‘blend' of two colors or ask a stylist to give your wig highlights and lowlights two shades away from the wig's base color.

3. Look for Lace Fronts and Monofilament Tops

Keira Knightley wore wigs onset and at red carpet events for years, and no one knew she was wearing them until she spoke publicly about her issues with hair loss.

How did she keep everyone in the dark about her hair?

With lace fronts and monofilament tops.

Lace front wigs create the illusion of a natural hairline, making it look like your wig hair is growing right out of your head.

Monofilament tops do the same thing, but for the wig's part. Each hair of a monofilament top wig is individually sewn into the wig, rather than being machine applied. This allows the wig hair to move freely and lets you to part the wig anywhere you want.

4.Mess Up The Part

When something looks too perfect, especially with wigs. It's usually a sign that that thing is fake. Apparently, big companies haven't learned this yet.

Most wigs come out of the box with eerily perfect parts that scream, "This isn't my natural hair!" when you wear them.

As soon as your new wig arrives, take a pair of tweezers and carefully pluck out a few strands. Then, using baby scissors, cut a few strands so that they look like they're just growing out. Last, choose a couple of hairs to place on the 'wrong' side of the part. Imperfection never looked so perfect.

5.Trim Your Wig

Typically, we aren't completely happy with a new haircut until our hair has had the time to grow out a bit. To mimic that natural, grown outlook, take your wig to a stylist and ask her to use a razor to cut in some layers or jagged edges.

6.Blend it Out

Lace front wigs are great at mimicking a natural hairline, but they'll never beat the real thing. If you're lucky enough to have some natural hair, try ‘blending' your natural hairline with the hairline of a lace front wig.

Ensuring that your wig is properly cared for will help to extend the life of your wig and keep it looking natural and healthy-looking for as long as possible.

A wig that is not properly cared for can become frayed, frizzy and damaged, leading to an unnatural appearance. Only use shampoo, conditioner and styling products made specifically for synthetic wigs, and only use combs and brushes created for wigs.

Wear Accessories as You Would in Your Own Hair

Adding a bright scarf or headband to your wig can help it appear as if you are just accessorizing your natural hair. Strategically placing a headband or scarf around the front of the wig cap can also help to keep any of the wig caps from showing around the edges of the wig and help to keep the wig more securely in place on the head.

Are you looking for hairstyles to improve your appearance and make yourself more beautiful? Or even develop an affinity to hair fashion, but have no idea how to choose the right one?

In hair fashion, the wig is a good choice, the weft is another one, but wefts need to be installed into the natural hair, and usually match with closure and frontal, it spends a long time and much money.

The Truth About Human Hair and Synthetic Wigs

You’ve heard the phrase, “You get what you pay for.” And if you’ve spent any amount of time with wigs, you've noticed that the ones made of human hair are generally more expensive than the ones made of synthetic fiber. But does that necessarily mean human hair wigs are better than synthetic fiber wigs?  How are you supposed to know which is the better choice for you?

You’ve heard that old add-age “you get what you pay for”… this doesn’t necessarily mean the most expensive option is always what is best for you.

The truth?   Human hair and Synthetic hair both have their advantages and disadvantages. Let’s take a look at the facts about human hair first:

Wigs Made With Human Hair

Advantages of Human Hair Wigs

Hands down, human hair looks and feels the most natural because…well…it is natural hair.  There is nothing exactly like the feel, weight, and movement of a good quality human hair wig (However, quality being the operative word is important to factor in as poor quality human hair is not worth the money in the long run at all!) Remy human hair is considered a premium option because it is generally easier to style and tangles much less due to all the follicles being kept in the same direction during construction. Human hair is remarkably soft with a shine and movement not easily duplicated by synthetic hair. Its versatility allows you to style it like your own hair with curls or bone straight with a durability that can last over a year!

Disadvantages Of Human Hair

So as we all know, human hair wigs and extensions are definitely not inexpensive!  Good quality hair (which is the only human hair worth buying) is pricey.  But is it also takes much more time to style and care for?  Since it is natural hair, you have to style it each time you wear it just like you would your own natural hair.  The style doesn’t really hold as a synthetic wig would. If you have a busy lifestyle or a tight budget, this may not be the choice for you. And just like natural hair, human hair will react to weather conditions and will go flat or frizz if weather dictates;(

Synthetic Hair

Advantages of Synthetic Hair

Synthetic hair has come a long way in the past 10 years.  Because of the inconsistencies in the human hair market, the focus has been on perfecting synthetic hair fiber to look and behave just like human hair. And the results have been amazing.  The look is pretty indistinguishable from human hair wigs and the feel is pretty darn close!  The fact that most synthetic wigs can be worn right out of the box with minimal or no styling requirements makes it a more attractive choice. And, unlike human hair, synthetic hair will hold its style regardless of the climate. The curl pattern or style is basically baked right into the wig and will not change no matter how terrible the weather is!  Bonus!

Disadvantages of Synthetic Hair

The only disadvantage we can come up with is what we feel is its biggest advantage… you don’t have to take time to style because the style or curl pattern is set right in and stays that way!  However, this means you can’t change it and so you don’t have the versatility of human hair.  Kind of a plus in my book.  As the prices are much more reasonable, it is easy to afford a straight and wavy version and not have to put much styling effort into either one. (but we had to find some kind of disadvantage so this is the closest we could find;)

There are heat-friendly synthetic options which allow styling more like human hair wigs. But styling is still a challenge due to the fiber’s natural resistance to change.  We are excited about the advancements in heat-friendly synthetic fiber and look forward to this technology improving over time.

The Best of Both Worlds!

Imagine all the benefits of human hair and all the benefits of synthetic hair got together and had a baby...The product of this union would be only the advantages of both human hair and synthetic hair and virtually none of the disadvantages!  Well... it does exist.  This is what is called in the industry "blended hair"  which is a varying blend of human hair to get the softness, style-ability, and perfect movement with a long-lasting style hold and the most vibrant long-lasting colors.   This is the best of both worlds and it is available for anyone who wants it.  It is very new to the market and not everywhere right now, but you will see it more and more.

Bottom Line

Both human hair wigs and synthetic wigs have their pluses and minuses.   Only you know your needs, wants, and budget.  Optimally, if your budget allows, you would want to get a great human hair wig to suit your more important dates and looks, but always have a great synthetic wig or two for your daily needs or your more casual days.  Ideally, you want both types of hair on hand as both are great choices for different situations. You could actually have your cake and eat it too!

If you have never worn a lace wig before and you don’t take the time to learn about how to properly wear your wig, you will make numerous mistakes. By taking the time to learn about the most common mistakes that women make when first wearing the wig, you will ensure that you have a positive experience the first time you wear your lace wig. Not to mention that taking the time to learn about the different mistakes will extend the life of your wig because you will learn the proper care techniques required to maintain your wig.

Lace Front Wigs are not just for people who have no hair. Many people who still have their own hair wear them to help enhance their own looks. Celebrities like Beyonce, as well as everyday people, wear lace front wigs in addition to their normal hair to create some sensational hairstyles. While the majority of mistakes are made by a woman who has never worn a lace wig before, they are not the only ones to make some of the embarrassing mistakes that you will read about here. Many celebrities have been caught by the spotlight making some of these mistakes that you want to learn how to avoid.

Most of the women that have never purchased and worn a Lace Front will make mistakes on how to wear properly if the steps on how to apply and wear are not followed properly.

In order to wear a Lace Front Wig or any other kind of wig, you will first need to wrap up your own hair completely close to the scalp, otherwise, the wig will be noticeable.

Lace Front needs to be cut, but not to close to the hairline because the hair will start to come off: Lace Front needs to be cut 1 ½- 2’’ inches from the hairline.

After the Lace Front has been cut off incorrectly the hair will dry and turn brittle. The hair will start to stand out because it will no longer look like your own natural hair. It is recommended that you treat your wigs just like you treat your own hair, so keep them in excellent conditions; you need to condition the hair on your regular basis.

When the hairline is cut incorrectly, it does not look like a natural hairline. Try to avoid the bad look on your wig. If you do not know how to cut the Lace Front or how to put it on go to a Professional hairstylist that knows.

Many Fist time users apply the wrong glue to their Lace Front. Please be advised that the right glue needs to be applied, and make sure that it is dried completely it can take up to 15 minutes for the procedure to be completed.

Wrong colors are chosen when you decide to get a different tone of color. Our advice is to choose a color that best matches your skin; otherwise, the people will be able to notice that you are wearing a wig.

The density of the wigs can sometimes be an issue too. Choosing the correct percentage of the density of your wig will avoid you from further problems. Getting a wig that has too much density will make you feel really bad from your head. It will be obvious that you are wearing a Lace Front. At the time of purchase, please make sure that you have in mind how much density is that you want your wig to have.

Customers that have never worn a wig do not know that if the nylon mesh underneath is not the same color as the cap construction from the wig. It will be noticeable other people around will know is not your own hair. Recommendations for first-time users, please wear a Nylon Mesh that is the same color as your cap from the wig.

Styling wigs seem to be a problem these days. Lace Front wig is not always stylable and heat resistant. Some synthetic wigs are not heated friendly and are not able to style. When a wig is heat resistant you are able to style the hair just the way you want it. Try to avoid damaging your hairpiece and take it to a professional.

Customers do not store their wigs correctly. Wigs are to be washed 6-8 wears and store in headstands. Sometimes Wigs can look easy to be applied. But the reality is that once you have the actual piece ready to be worn it starts to give you a lot of trouble. As a company with many years of experience, our suggestion to you is not wash the wig daily. If you need help applying the wig you go to someone that knows how to do it, Otherwise, they will ruin your wig.

When you find that look you love, you want to know the right care tips for wig longevity. Luckily, caring for your synthetic wig is extremely easy!

Washing and Care

First, you want to make sure that you’re not washing her after every use. Judge it the way you judge your own hair. Keep the hair clean by washing at least once a week or every two weeks with cold to warm water, never hot. Wash her right away after swimming and comb through the hair after activities like exercising.

Once it is time for a wash, you’re going to want to fill your sink with lukewarm water, and then add some Woman In Disguise Shampoo and let her soak for 2-3 minutes. After that, gently rinse and then refill the sink with lukewarm water and Woman In Disguise Conditioner and let her soak for another 2-3 minutes. You’ll only want to use the products specifically designed for your wig.

After washing, use a towel to press down on the wig to release any excess water. For drying, use the towel to then put her on her wig stand and use your fingers only to work through the hair. It’s that simple.

Deciding To Cut

Cutting your wig can be the most economical haircut. You only have to cut it once, but remember – it won’t grow back! That’s why it’s important to make sure you know exactly what you want and consider having a professional take care of the job.

Before cutting a wig, it’s important to know what exactly you want to be done with it. Before making any decisions, wear the wig around for a few days. What, if anything about it do you want to change? If you’ve decided you still want to change up your wig, take it to a professional. They’ll be able to know where and how to cut and style the wig to not expose any of the wig caps.

Daily Maintenance

When you have a synthetic wig there is very little to no daily maintenance since it will always hold its shape wear after wear and wash after wash. If you choose to get a real hair wig, you’re going to have to style it just like you would have to with your own hair.
