How to Wear a Wig?



Wigs have become increasingly popular as a way to change up your look, protect your natural hair, or simply add volume and style. If you're new to the world of wigs, don't worry! Wearing a wig can be easy and fun with a little practice. Here's a basic guide to get you started:

Preparing Your Hair

  • Wash and condition: Clean hair provides a smooth base for the wig.
  • Style your hair flat: Use pins or clips to keep your natural hair as flat as possible.
  • Wig cap: While optional, a wig cap can help to secure your hair and create a smoother base for the wig.

Putting on Your Wig

  1. Place the wig: Hold the wig with both hands, making sure the label is at the back. Gently place the front of the wig on your hairline and slide it back.
  2. Adjust: Position the wig so it sits comfortably and naturally on your head.
  3. Secure: Use wig clips or tape to secure the wig in place, if needed.

Styling Your Wig

  • Brush gently: Use a wide-tooth comb or wig brush to detangle the wig.
  • Styling products: Use wig-specific styling products to maintain the wig's shape and texture.
  • Heat styling: If your wig is made of human hair, you can use heat styling tools, but be cautious and use a heat protectant.

Wig Care

  • Proper storage: Store your wig on a wig stand or head to maintain its shape.
  • Gentle washing: Follow the care instructions provided with your wig.
  • Avoid harsh products: Use gentle, wig-friendly products to clean and condition your wig.

Tips for a Natural Look

  • Choose the right wig: Select a wig that matches your skin tone, face shape, and desired style.
  • Blend the hairline: Use wig glue or tape to create a seamless hairline.
  • Practice: The more you wear a wig, the more comfortable and confident you'll become.

Remember: Everyone's hair and head shape is different, so it might take some experimentation to find the perfect wig and application method for you. Don't be afraid to try different styles and techniques until you find what works best for you.
