ON

Day by day, roots are growing out, hair is getting longer and there doesn’t seem to be any resolution. With everything that’s going on at the moment, worrying about your hair may not be a priority but we understand how frustrating it can be when hairdressers are fully book and there's no one to fix your hair. Trusting an untrained family member, housemate or partner to style your hair just isn’t an option, it’s too much of a risk to take!

With little option of hair styling solutions, the UK is full of hair disasters with no way of fixing their growing hair problems! Or is there?

 

Natural Looking Human Hair Wigs

There’s no need to worry over your hair nightmares, we have your solution – wigs!

If you’ve not considered a wig before, your perception of them may be of some badly-fitting hairpiece that looks like something from a fancy dress outfit! But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Thanks to some amazing innovations in how wigs are made and the materials used, including real human hair, modern wigs look every bit as natural as a head of hair.

And with a vast array of brands, styles and colours to choose from there’s no shortage of choice.


 

Will my hair fit under a wig?

If you’re looking to use a wig over the top of your existing hair, one obvious question is whether your existing locks will fit, or whether you’ll need to have some form of haircut first. Well, before you start reaching for the scissors, the good news is there’s no need to worry. 

With the use of a simple wig cap (£2.50 for a pack of 2), you can hide all your natural hair and bring out a new you whenever you like!

 

Choose the Right Wig for You

There are so many wigs to choose from: long wigs, curly wigs, short wigs, wavy wigs, the list is endless. Choosing a wig can not only be exciting but also quite overwhelming with all the different styles and designer wigs to choose from. When choosing a wig, it’s vital you understand the difference between a human hair wig and a synthetic wig as this difference can really set your choices apart.

Human Hair Wigs

Human hair wigs are probably the most popular option, with a gorgeous natural look that will give you the ultimate style.

Take a look at why a human hair wig could be the best option:

Benefits of a Human Hair Wig

There’s no doubt that a human hair wig is your best bet if you’re looking for a natural look and feel. With great styling versatility, many human hair wigs can be shaped just the way you like. Whether you want to straighten, curl, colour or perm your wig the choice is yours. Human hair wigs can deal with the heat from styling far better than synthetic wigs and are stronger in general.

Human hair wigs perfectly resemble your own hair, making it very hard to tell the difference.

With the correct wig maintenance products these wigs can last you a year or more, even when worn daily.

Fibre Hair Wigs

Fibre wigs have come on hugely over the last few years thanks to some great advances in technology. They’re easy to look after and can look pretty natural however they have their drawbacks. Here are the pros and cons to consider when choosing a fibre wig.

Benefits of Fibre Wigs

Fibre weeks are a winner when it comes to maintenance, they need half as much as human hair wigs. They require specific care and maintenance products however when these are applied they can look and feel almost identical to human hair. They also magically hold their style even in the most awful weather conditions-  a fibre wig will not let you down!

You can also buy fibre wigs in a range of colours that perhaps aren’t available in human hair wigs. If you like the bold, wild and wonderful colours then fibre wigs are for you.

Fibre wigs can be versatile, natural looking, low maintenance and are great value. If you buy a heat friendly synthetic wigs, they can actually be more cost-effective then buying a human hair wig.

 

How to Use a Wig Cap

Weather you wear a wig cap or not, it’s totally up to you. They act as a personal barrier between your scalp, your hair and the wig.

Wearing a cap can be the more comfortable and less sensitive option as a wig cap keeps your wig secure and your natural hair out the way. They can give some structure for the wig to sit against and generally feel safer on the head when doing everyday activities.

Wig caps come in all different shapes and styles and can hide your natural hair away perfectly, but they’re not vital, so the option is yours.
