How To Style A Wig

Aug 8, 2023

Wig styling is important to keeping your wig looking most natural and beautiful, and wig styling requires just as much care and attention as your natural hair. How you design your wig depends on personal preference and what makes you look pretty and feel more comfortable. Here are some great tips and tricks, read on to learn how to style a wig perfectly.

Wigs are divided into human hair wigs and synthetic hair wigs. Human hair wigs are more expensive, but they look more realistic and are more comfortable to wear, they are safe to style and can withstand heat and if you take care of them properly, they can last at least a year or even years. Synthetic hair wigs don't look as natural, and they usually can't withstand heat, but they're cheaper and require less maintenance than human hair wigs.

Can you style a synthetic wig?

Synthetic wigs may be a mix of human hair and synthetic hair, or they may be made entirely of synthetic hair. That means they might be able to be styled with low heat, and a fully synthetic wig can't be styled with heat tools. Synthetic wigs are often pre-programmed looks, so it can be very difficult to create a different look without destroying the wig.

 

How to style a synthetic wig?

Put a synthetic wig on a wig rack or model head so you can style it from all angles.

 

Use a wide-toothed comb to brush the synthetic wig. Carefully comb the wig with a wide-toothed comb, starting at the ends and working your way down to the roots. Brushing the synthetic wig 'wakes up' the fibers.

 

Avoid using any styling products on synthetic wigs. Synthetic wigs are cheap and made from synthetic fibers, and using styling products can cause wigs to degrade faster! Do not use any products, such as hair gels or heat protectors, on synthetic wigs.

 

Use steam tools instead of heat tools to style. Heating tools such as curlers can damage synthetic fibers. However, you can use steam for styling. If you often wear synthetic wigs, you should invest in a hand-held steamer.

 

If you want to add curls to your wig, curlers are an effective and cost-effective way to create curls of any size. Set your hair in curly foam, then heat it in a steamer. Let the wig cool and dry, then remove the curling iron.

How to style a human hair wig?

Human hair wigs are very versatile when it comes to styling. In fact, many human hair wigs can be styled, permed, bleached, and colored just like your natural hair.

 

Make sure to style wigs when dry.

Whether you've just washed your wig or applied some wet styling products, be sure to wait for the wig to dry before using styling tools. Never style your human hair wig when it is wet, as this can damage the wig construction and ruin your wig.

 

Use a wide-toothed comb to brush the human hair wig

Once your wig has been washed and dried, use a wig wide-toothed comb to comb the wig while you place the wig on a wig stand. Using a wig brush or comb, gently comb the wig from the base to the tips. Remove the tangles first, starting at the bottom and working your way up to prevent breakage. We recommend using a wide-toothed comb to comb your human hair wig, as this allows for gentle combing that doesn't disturb the hat or fibers while preventing static electricity.

 

You can use the heat styling tool to style a human hair wig. 

You can use a flat iron or curling iron to create the style you want. Use a low-temperature setting and only dry hair and use a heat setting spray to protect it so you don't cause excessive damage to the wig.

To straighten the wig, take a section of hair and run it from root to tip with a heated iron. Repeat each section until you have straightened all the hair on the wig.

To curl the wig, clip the curl about 1 inch in the middle of your hair. Then, wrap the bottom part of your hair around a hair stick. Hold for 5 to 10 seconds, then let go. Repeat until all of your hair is curled.

 

Add character to your wig with accessories.

For a quick and easy personal style, hair accessories are a great way to add creativity to your wig style. Adding a headband, clip, or scarf to your wig changes your style, and you can accessorize with different pieces every day to create a different look.
