Straight Wigs

Choosing a Straight Wig for Your Face Shape

With so many colours and lengths available when it comes to straight wigs it can be hard to figure out which wig to choose. Monofilament and hand tied wig cap constructions will give you a more natural look however you may need to consider features such as the length, parting position and fringe style when choosing a straight human hair wig. Knowing which wig will accentuate your features in the best possible way comes down to your face shape (and personal preference of course).

Oval Faces

Known as the perfect facial structure, oval faces can get away with pretty much any style and length. However, the most flattering look can be achieved by choosing a short straight wig that is medium or shoulder length. Longer styles can still be flattering however in some cases the face can appear even longer. Face framing layers and fringes can suit oval faces too and help to soften the features but a straight wig with a centre parting is an equally gorgeous look.

Round Faces

A round face shape is defined as a face that is equal in height as it is width. If you have this face shape, short straight styles should be avoided as they can emphasise the roundness. Opt for longer styles that can create the illusion of a longer face structure. Straight wigs with off centre or side partings work best for individuals with round faces.

Heart Shaped Faces 

Similarly to oval faces, heart shaped faces can look beautiful in a number of different styles and lengths. A heart shaped face has a defined jawline and chin so styles that end at the bottom of the chin can detract from the striking features. Short straight bob wigs or mid length styles will be the most flattering whilst face framing layers can create balance that is needed between the chin and forehead.
