How to Make a Wig Look Natural and Put on a Wig Look Real

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.

Now that you know some of the pros best tricks, try some or all of them. You'll be surprised what a difference they make in the styles you already own. But, it may prompt you to want to get a new style! Whether you need to wear wigs or simply want to wear them to make life easier… These tips will give you the confidence to flaunt it.

17 Facts About Full Lace Wigs

1-What is a full lace wig?

A lace wig is constructed on a very thin mesh/lace cap. A full lace wig can be parted anywhere on the scalp. They are particularly appropriate for all hairstyles including wearing the hair back in a ponytail or updo because they create the appearance of a completely natural hairline.

2-What are the different types of lace?

The various types of cap bases for lace wigs include - French Lace wigs, Swiss Lace wigs. French lace is a strong material used at the front edge of a lace wig in combination with bleached knots to give an extremely undetectable look. The knots are not hidden by lace, but using lighter knots creates the illusion of growing hair. French lace is less fragile than Swiss lace and with care, your lace wig could last a long time. Swiss Lace wigs are more fragile than French lace wigs but strong enough if handled carefully. It is the most undetectable lace wig but also very delicate. Swiss lace wigs need to be handled with care and are not recommended for first-time users to lace front wigs. French Lace wigs + Ear To Ear Stretch is a French lace wig with an elastic material constructed within the lace wigs for maximum durability and elasticity. This will allow a client to pull back the lace wig in a high ponytail while offering an adjustable "perfect" fit.

3-Which is better, French Lace Wigs or Swiss Lace Wigs?

It really is a matter of preference. Swiss lace wigs are finer, and more fragile, than French lace wigs, and blends better with the skin for a less visible appearance. French lace wigs are slightly thicker, stretchable and very durable. We generally recommend that first-time buyers go with French lace wigs if you can because they are inexperienced at lace wig application and removal and are more likely to damage a lace wig cap made of Swiss lace. With experience applying and removing lace wigs, you may feel more comfortable with Swiss lace wigs. Both lace wigs can be tinted different shades of brown to blend with a variety of complexions.

4-What is virgin Hair (cuticle hair)?

Virgin Hair is truly superior human hair collected directly from a single donor. Sewn-in the same direction hair naturally grows. This is hair in its virgin condition It has an extraordinary silky and soft quality since it has never been exposed to harsh chemical treatments. This Remy's hair is specially processed to ensure all the cuticle layers are facing in the same direction from root to end, and therefore does not tangle. This ensures the hair behaves exactly like your own hair, blending in superbly and looking perfectly natural. The cuticle layer of the hair remains intact and protects the hair from harsh environmental conditions, which keeps the hair shiny and resilient to damage. The result is a superior hair lace wig that colors beautifully- it has the highlights and natural shading just like your own hair. Remy's hair is soft to touch and retains its vitality and elasticity, so the hair will never matt and always looks healthy and full of luster.

5-What are hair knots (single, double & bleached knots)?

There are 3 kinds of knots used on our hair lace wigs including Single Knots, Double Knots, and Bleached Knots.

Single Knots are considered the best method of knotting producing a tiny knot for each individual hand-tied hair. Two or three individual hairs can be single knotted to the lace wig at one time speeding up the process. It's hard to detect, but easy to shed.

Double Knots literally involve knotting lace wig hair twice to produce a double knot which provides a stronger, more robust knot. The resultant knots are however slightly more visible under close inspection. It's easy to detect, but not easy to shed.

Bleached Knots is just meant to make the lace wig knots less detectable. They won't be clear or totally invisible. The bleached hair will help to hide the lace wig knots and is a method of making the hair appear as if it is growing from the scalp. It gives a realistic view effect if the original hair color is black.

6-What does density mean?

Hair density is simply how many hairs are added to your lace wig hair system base. In earlier years, high density was necessary because the base materials were usually made of thicker materials and would be easily exposed if hair density were low. More recently, with the advance of thinner base materials such as lace and thin skin, low density tends to look more natural especially with the see-through look along the hairlines. You can choose different lace wig hair density in different areas of the lace wig base. We generally recommend light density at the lace wig hairline and crown gradually increasing to medium density then medium density throughout the lace wig (blended well). Most of our lace wigs are made with Medium Density (130%). The lace wigs can also be made with high density. There are six kinds of hair density listed below: Light Lace Wigs (100%) Light to Medium lace wigs (130%) Medium to Heavy Lace Wigs (150%) High Thick Lace Wigs (180%).

7- How much lace should I cut off the lace wig?

Cut all the excess lace in a zig-zag shape as close to the hairline as possible leaving little or no lace visible to the eye.  

8-How to attach a full lace wig(using glue)?

Prep your hair, by creating a flat surface for the lace wig to sit on. You can braid your hair down, or apply a lace wig liner.

Fit the lace wig on your head, and evaluate how and where you would like the hairline. The goal is to find where the hairline will look most natural.

Gradually starting trimming the excess lace, the goal here is to create your hairline, only cut small amounts off at a time.

After you have created your hairline, apply adhesive to the hairline, so it can stay on your head.

The finished hairline should look totally natural as if the hair were actually growing from your head.

9-How to remove the full lace wig (if you use glue or tape)?

Put all hair up into a ponytail, so you won't get adhesive on the hair.

Apply the lace wig adhesive remover to the adhesive around the perimeter of the hairline.

Gradually remove the lace wig, be careful not to pull at the lace wig, Remove slowly.

After you have removed the lace wig, there may be some residue left on the lace wig unit, you should shampoo the lace wig unit, and with a towel, delicately scrub the residue away.

You should let the lace wig unit dry naturally or you can style the lace wig unit, how you would normally style your natural hair.

10-How do I care for my lace wig?

When not in use, always store your lace wig on a mannequin or lace wig stand to maintain its shape. The frequency of cleaning will depend on your environment, lifestyle and amount you perspire. We recommend cleaning/washing the unit no more than twice a month.

Grooming is best carried out using a wide-tooth comb. These styling tools are gentle on the hair causing less pressure on the lace wig hair knots, reducing shedding. When encountering tangling, detangle hair gently, avoiding abrasive brushing. Correct product usage will prolong the lace wigs' life with color protection products and regular deep conditioning essential. Most importantly, low chemical, color protection shampoos should be used to keep color leakage and dryness to a minimum. Always use sulfate-free products. The application of natural oil treatment is recommended with a suitable anti-oxidant and UV protector to protect the hair from long-term damage. This will help prevent dryness and maintain a healthy appearance.  

11-How do I maintain my lace wig so that I can minimize shedding and tangling?

Shedding is caused my excessive combing or brushing. To minimize the hair loss, use a knot sealer after every 1-2 shampoos. Also, follow our instructions on how to shampoo your lace wig for the best results. It is recommended for each lace wig wearer to have two lace wigs, in the event one lace wig needs to be repaired.

12-Do I have to wear makeup to hide the lace?

No, the lace wig will be cut back to the hairline and it will be attached to your scalp so that it appears as if it is growing out of your scalp. You can put makeup in the parting of your unit in order to pronounce the parting.

13-Can I style this lace wig?

Yes, our units can be styled just like natural bio hair. You can dye it, straighten it, blow-dry it, curl it, etc. It is 100% Virgin Human Hair and will style as your own natural hair does.

14-Can the lace wig be parted anywhere?

All of our full lace wig units are versatile meaning that you are able to wear the unit up in a ponytail or a bun. Our units are also freestyle ventilated, meaning that the unit can be combed in any direction. Our units may appear with a center or side part when styled for photography but the part is not permanent.

15- Can you dye/color the hair?

Yes, the hair can be dyed with a cream-based dye and you want to make sure you do not get the dye on the lace.

16-Can the wavy and curly lace wigs be flat ironed or hot curled?

If you order a lace wig and select Wavy or Curly texture - that is a processed texture that is put into the hair with a gentle steam process to add the wave or curl pattern. It should not be hot curled or flat ironed regularly as it may over the process the hair since it has a permanent texture already put into the hair. The only lace wigs that can be hot curled or flat ironed is Straight hair textures or any lace wig unit that states that it is naturally curly or wavy [raw state].

17- Can I still wear this wig if I have a head full of hair?

Yes, all you have to do is braid your hair in small flat cornrows straight back or you can wrap your hair flat back. It's that simple.

Synthetic vs Human Hair Which One is Better for You

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!

Regardless of which type of hair you choose, remember that it is always important to follow our care recommendations in order to get the optimal life span from your hair!

Women’s Hair Loss Solutions

Identifying the nature and extent of your hair loss is crucial to determining the type of product best suited for your needs. Top pieces can be a great solution for localized hair loss. If hair loss is more extensive or diffuse, wigs will be ideal.

As Wig Experts, we developed our Hair Matchmaker tool to help you easily classify your particular type and degree of hair loss - and more importantly, match it up with the selection of products best suited for your needs. From hairpieces to lace wigs, we've got you covered!

HAIR LOSS: REAL WOMEN, REAL STORIES

HAIR LOSS BY THE NUMBERS

Although anyone can experience hair loss, women actually make up 40% of American hair loss sufferers -- 1 in 4 women in the U.S. (source: American Hair Loss Association). It may not be uncommon but it can be upsetting! Unless youíve experienced hair loss first-hand, it can be difficult to grasp the emotional toll it can take. For many of us, hair can be a surprisingly important part of our identity and for women, our sense of femininity.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, the average person loses anywhere from 50 to 100 strands of hair each day. But hair loss becomes noticeable when the rate of shedding exceeds the rate of regrowth or when regrowth is thinner than previous.

Alopecia is the medical term for excessive hair loss. It can be caused by anything from chemotherapy and radiation therapy side effects to stress, age, genetics, poor nutrition, and autoimmune disorders. Androgenetic alopecia is genetic and causes 95% of hair loss -- often diffuse thinning for women and pattern balding for men. Alopecia areata and various other types of less common alopecia are autoimmune disorders resulting in hair loss ranging from small patches to complete hair loss which can be temporary or permanent.

10 Common Mistakes Women Make While Wearing A Lace Front Wig

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.

Care Tips For Wig Longevity

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.
