Wigs: The Good, The Bad And The Ridiculous
While many people purchase a wig to change their style or to
create a dramatic look for a special night, others wear wig
hairpieces on a daily basis to conceal thinning hair or to cover
baldness resulting from an illness. But no matter why you choose
to wear a wig, there are a few things that you should keep in
mind before you purchase one and incorporate wigs into your
style.
There are many different types of wigs available and they can
range from being inexpensive to extremely expensive. For the
most part, the old saying, "you get what you pay for," is true
when it comes to purchasing wig hairpieces. The more you spend,
the higher quality wig you'll get in return. And a higher
quality hairpiece means that it will remain beautiful versatile
for years to come.
Perhaps the most deciding factor that will help you decide how
much to spend on your wig is how you are going to use it. If you
are only going to use your wig occasionally for special events,
you may be able to get by with an inexpensive wig. But since
most inexpensive wigs are made with synthetic hair, it is almost
impossible to match them up with your existing hair color or to
achieve a truly natural look. Inexpensive wig hairpieces are
also not finely wefted. That means that more hair is sewn into
one weft of the wig instead of distributed throughout the wig
evenly resulting in a baby doll hair look if you're not careful.
Other things to consider before you go by an inexpensive wig, is
how you are going to style the hairpiece. Synthetic hair cannot
be colored, permed or curled with thermal tools. So, your
styling and change-out options with an inexpensive wig
are
limited.
All of these drawbacks make the natural-hair wig your best bet
especially if you wear a wig on a daily basis. While this
hairpiece may be a little more expensive, you can color it, cut
it and curl it just like you would your own hair because it is
real hair. Wig hairpieces made with natural hair also look more
natural in sunlight and under certain lights than do wigs made
with synthetic hair strands.
Even natural hair wigs, though, come with a wide variety of
prices. The prices vary according to quality and length of the
hair used and the craftsmanship of the hairpiece itself. Again,
you get what you pay for.
If you plan to wear your wig daily, you should also look for wig
hairpieces that are light and finely woven. The wig should allow
a good amount of air to circulate through the wig and onto your
scalp. This is not only for your own comfort but for the well
being of your own hair. Tight and constrictive wigs can cause
friction and cut off the blood supply to your scalp resulting in
hair loss.
So, before you buy a wig, investigate all of your options
carefully. Choosing a good wig now may save you money in the end
because you will probably never have to replace it.
