Human hair wigs provide unparalleled realism and styling versatility. However, they are more expensive and require more care than synthetic wigs.
The lifespan of a wig depends on how often it is worn and how well it is maintained. With proper care, a human hair wig can last up to a year or more. The highest quality human hair wigs feature Remy hair, in which the strands of the hair are all lying in the same direction and are less prone to tangling.
A benefit of human hair is that it can be styled, permed and dyed to match your natural hair colour. Additionally, many human hair wigs have a soft, silky feel that cannot be replicated with synthetic hair.
High-Quality Human Hair Wigs for Every Style
One of the biggest drawbacks of a human hair wig is that it requires regular washing, conditioning and styling. It is also prone to frizzing and heat damage, so it is important to use low-heat settings when styling it.
If you plan on wearing your wig in hot weather, it is recommended to choose a synthetic wig or a blended human hair/synthetic fibre blend, as they are more resilient to humidity and heat damage. These wigs will also hold their styles through repeated washes, making them easier to maintain.
Synthetic wigs are affordable, lightweight and easy to take care of. They are available in a wide variety of colours and styles. They can appear a little more shiny than a human hair wig but this can be corrected by using a glossing serum or by brushing the wig with a detangling tool.
