Whether someone has lost hair due to cancer treatment or alopecia, or just wants a different look for a special event, a wig can achieve this effect. One of the most popular types are the lace wigs, which consist of a lace cap worn tight to the scalp along the wearer's hairline with realistic-looking tresses that appear to be actually growing from the scalp. They come in a wide assortment of styles, and can be worn in many ways.
The majority of these wigs are made from human hair which provides more styling options and a more realistic appearance. Full lace units cover the entire head. They can be parted anywhere and styled in a ponytail or updo. Lace front wigs and lace frontals differ in that they feature lace only at the front of the piece, and are used to provide added fullness in the front.
In order for the wig to stay looking good and last for several years, it will need to receive proper care by the wearer. Most can be worn for up to two or three weeks before they require a new application. Wearers who have lost their own hair tend to be able to wear the wig longer because the adhesion is stronger.
It's important to choose a wig cap color which matches one's own skintone as closely as possible. The color choice should be based on the hairline not the whole body. In general those with light skin should choose transparent, medium or tan complexions are best with beige, and darker skinned people can use light or dark brown.
Hair types differ by thickness, sheen, weight, and texture. Wearers who desire a wig which is easy to dye and style may prefer the Chinese remy style, which also offers superb thickness, while those looking for matte waves may choose Mongolian remy, and wearers who want a sleek, silky look are likely to opt for the Indian or Malaysian remy designs.
Proper application technique is essential to any wig looking great. This involves styling one's own hair as close to the head as possible, such as in cornrows, or wearing a wig cap, trimming the lace so it closely fits one's hairline, securing it sufficiently with combs and glue, and for a more realistic-looking hairline, pulling through a few strands of one's own hair and baby hairs can do wonders.
It's best to also purchase a wig stand where the unit can rest and hold its shape when not in use. To keep it clean, two spray bottles, one filled with water and shampoo and the other with conditioner and water can be used in that order, combing the solution through and rinsing in between, then blotting the wig dry and allowing it to finish drying on its stand.
Wigs fashioned from human hair can be styled more or less the same as one's natural hair. It is safe to use blow dryers, curlers, curling irons, and straighteners on remy hair wigs, but it's not advisable to try to straighten a very curly design, as it will likely go frizzy. If wearing the wig to bed, wrap one's head in a protective scarf and use a satin pillowcase.
