This blog shares more about short human hair wigs, why they are so popular as well as top tips for maintenance and styling.
What Are Short Human Hair Wigs?
As the name suggests, short human hair wigs are made from 100% real human hair that has been cut to a short length. Unlike synthetic wigs, these wigs look and feel incredibly natural thanks to the inclusion of human hair versus a synthetic alternative and have the added bonus of being able to be styled and heated just like your own hair.
Why Are They Becoming So Popular?
So just why are short wigs so in demand? There are a few reasons for their growing popularity, and these include:
Flexibility
Short wigs allow you to easily switch up your look in a matter of minutes, making it easy to go from day to night with a simple change of wig. They also give you the freedom to experiment and try out different looks without committing to a long-term style - with human hair, you can go from mermaid waves to chic and poker straight with the flick of an iron, without worrying about causing damage to your new 'do.
Easy to Maintain
Unlike longer wigs, short human hair wigs don't require as much maintenance and upkeep, which makes them perfect for those who don't have the time to dedicate to styling their hair each day. The shorter style reduces the annoyance of knots and tangles - you can simply run a brush through and go about your day looking and feeling fabulous - this is particularly important if you are short on time!
A Classic, Timeless Look
Shorter styles also tend to offer an elegant, classic look that stands the test of time - perfect for those who want to make a sophisticated statement without going overboard. Whether you're looking for something subtle and natural or something bold and daring, short human hair wigs offer the perfect solution.
It Can Help You Look Younger
Gone are the days of short styles being associated with age - today, shorter wigs are great for helping you look and feel younger. From pixies to bobs, there are plenty of styles to choose from that can help you feel like the best version of yourself - the secret is in choosing the perfect wig for your preferences.
How to Find the Perfect Short Wig
Here at Joseph's Wigs, we understand just how important it is to find the perfect wig that looks and feels natural and will work with you to try on and experiment with a host of different options to find your perfect fit. Some top tips to help choose the right wig include:
Consider Your Bone Structure
Short hair can look great on anyone – provided you choose the right style for your face shape. When trying on wigs, be sure to consider your facial structure to find a cut that works with your features and accentuates them perfectly.
Choose Your Colour Wisely
Choosing the right colour is essential when it comes to creating a natural look. Whether you prefer to stick close to your natural colour or go for something bolder, be sure to use a wig colour swatch to pick the perfect tone for your complexion and desired look.
Think About your Lifestyle
Short wigs are also lower maintenance compared to long hair - but you still need to choose your style wisely. When opting for your preferred style, consider how much time you will be able to dedicate to styling and maintaining your wig. If you're short on time, something low-maintenance may be best - why not consider a daring pixie cut to make a serious statement, and save time in the morning?
Go for Quality
When it comes to purchasing your short human hair wig, quality is key. Opt for a wig made from 100% real human hair and be sure to check the reviews - this will help you to make an informed decision that you won't regret later. Be sure to research the brand and look out for features such as combs or clips that can help to keep your wig secure and looking its best.
Here at Joseph's Wigs, we pride ourselves on only working with the very best in natural-looking, high-quality wigs and extensions, so you can be sure that you’re investing in something special.
Be Gentle with Your Wig
Finally, be sure to treat your wig with care and respect to help it last for longer. Avoid using too much heat when styling, as this can cause damage over time, and be sure to wash and condition regularly to keep it looking its best, using sulphate-free shampoo for human hair wigs, or an appropriate synthetic fibre hair care kit. If you decide to go for the chop with your wig, head to a hair stylist with experience in cutting and styling wigs to ensure the perfect finish.
