Any new style change can be a bit nerve-wracking to debut. Whether you’ve got a new tattoo, wearing a wig, or just transitioning from brown to blonde, there’s no doubt you will feel some hesitancy about showing off this big change to your friends and family.
In particular wearing a wig for the first time comes with some doubts for wearers. Perhaps they are trying to hide hair loss or keep medical news private. Regardless of their reasons, the early days of wig-wearing are often filled with self-consciousness.
But here are a few details that can help you find the best-looking wig and make you feel confident about wearing them:
Quality
Purchasing a good quality wig is the number one way to make sure it doesn’t look like a wig. Human hair or high-quality synthetic wigs come with the most realistic strands. Looking for hand-tied lace wigs will also help you find the kinds which have natural-looking volume and motion.
Part
Getting the part right is essential to getting wig-wearing right. That’s why some wig wearers go so far as to apply make-up to the part line of their wig to match their skin tone. It’s small details like this that can help make a wig look natural and convincing.
Choosing a lace wig that allows you to manipulate the part or an L-part wig that comes with a naturally placed seam to act as the part can give you the best effect.
Styling
Learning to style your wig is just like learning to style your hair. It may be a learning curve, but having a few excellent styling moves down is enough to get you through most situations, whether you need a sleek business-appropriate look or a fancy wedding-guest ‘do.
