Many people wearing wigs for the first time worry that their wig will look unnatural and that others will know they are wearing a wig. However, this is not the case if you are buying a high-quality wig, have the proper fit and take the time to care for your wig properly. Here are some tips for making your wig look natural.
Ensure that your wig fits properly
When a wig is ill-fitting, it can move around on the head or pop up in the back. This will not only be uncomfortable, but it will not look natural. So you should measure your head,then choose a wig that suit for you.
Have Your Wig Trimmed by a Stylist
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.
Follow manufacturer instructions when caring for your 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 cap from showing around the edges of the wig and help to keep the wig more securely in place on the head.
