Which should I choose - human hair or synthetic? TOP
Human hair wigs are popular because of their luxurious texture, styling versatility, and long lifespan. Just like your own hair, they can be styled with heated styling tools - curled or flat ironed. If you want long (shoulder length or longer), we highly recommend human hair, as it holds up much longer and resists frizzing.
Many women prefer synthetic wigs because of their lower cost and easy maintenance. Most synthetics - especially the shorter styles - feature shake-and-go styling. Just put it on in the morning and go!
What is the difference in cap construction? TOP
The cap construction refers to the material used to create the base, and how the hair is attached to the base:
A "Standard Cap" is the least expensive type of cap. The hairs are sewn onto the base with a machine.
A "Capless" wig is also a less expensive type of cap, made with hair machine-sewn onto thin wefts that make the wig lighterweight and allow more airflow to the scalp for a cooler, more comfortable fit.
A "Monofilament" wig features a transparent mesh top with hairs individually hand-sewn, so that the wearer's own scalp shows through, thus creating the appearance of hair growing natural from your own head.
A "Hand-tied" wig, also called a cranial prosthesis, is a wig designed specifically for medical hair loss. The entire wig features hairs hand-sewn onto a soft, mesh base - which is designed to be supurbly comfortable against a bare scalp. Hand-tied wigs are noticeably lighterweight than traditional wigs and incredibly natural in appearnace. |
