There's a lot of debate surrounding wigs these days. Some people feel like they're not real hair, and therefore can't be considered as an option for those who want to keep their hair loss hidden. But is that really the case?

Wearing a wig can be a different experience than wearing your natural hair. Some people feel more confident and powerful when they wear a wig, while others find that it takes some time to get used to it.
No matter which category you fit into, it's important to know how wearing a wig feels different from having natural hair to make your wig more realistic and natural. In this post, we'll take a look at how wearing a wig actually feels different from having your own natural hair.

Spoiler alert: You may be surprised by what you learn!

Hair Fiber of the Wig may Look Different.

Wigs are made with either synthetic or real human hair. Although a wig made with real human hair fiber has the same texture as natural hair, the hair strands may become frizzy or tangled because wig hair, unlike real human hair, is unable to receive food and hydration from the scalp.
On the other hand, synthetic wigs have a shine that makes them look different from real human hair. High-quality synthetic wigs like the ones manufactured by Uniwigs have a matte that makes the synthetic wig look natural.

The Wig May Feel Heavier than Natural Hair.

Wigs have full caps to cover the entire head, which makes the hairpiece heavier. When you are new to wearing a wig, you may feel like wearing a cap constantly. To counter the issue, you must invest in wigs that have lighter base caps like monofilament caps or skin-like Swiss lace caps.

Wigs are More Versatile than Natural Hair.

It is more convenient to change hairstyle or hair color with wigs. You cannot possibly get a haircut every other month or dye your hair in a new shade with natural hair. Wigs provide a wonderful alternative to try out new hairstyles and hair shades without damaging natural hair.

Wigs Require Extra Care.

With natural hair, you can take the leverage of not washing it once in a while or not combing properly every morning; however, with wigs you have to be extra cautious to increase their longevity. If you want your hairpiece to last longer, you shall never on it to avoid tangling and frizz. Removing the wig before ing is important.
Washing the wig once the debris and dirt accumulate is also necessary; otherwise, your hairpiece would look worn out, affecting the hair knots.

The Hairline is the Most Important Factor.

Hairline determines whether your wig is going to look natural or not. If you buy poor-quality wigs that have visible knots and unrealistic hairlines, everyone around you would instantly know you are wearing a hairpiece. Always invest in a good quality hand-sewn wig with monofilament or lace cap to avoid such problems.

Wigs that Look As Natural As Real Human Hair

Whether you are considering wearing a wig because of hair loss or just want to change up your look, it is important that the quality of your purchase matters. When looking at pictures online, you may not notice that high-quality wigs will have more realistic texture and color than low-quality styles.
