Putting on a wig properly ensures it looks natural, stays secure, and feels comfortable—whether you’re new to wigs or a seasoned user. From synthetic wigs to human hair options, the process shares core steps, with small tweaks for different styles. At Wigsvana (
www.wigsvana.com), we design wigs for easy wear, so even beginners can master the basics. Let’s break down how to put a wig on flawlessly.
Before starting, collect a few essentials: a wig cap (matching your skin tone), a wide-tooth comb, bobby pins (for extra hold), and a wig stand (to prep the wig).
First, prep the wig: lay it on the stand and gently comb through tangles—start from the ends to avoid damage. For lace front wigs, trim excess lace (if needed) to match your hairline. This step ensures smooth, easy-to-wear wigs, whether you’re using everyday synthetic wigs or premium human hair wigs.
A smooth base prevents bumps under the wig. For short hair: pull it back with gel or mousse, then pin any loose strands flat. For long or thick hair: braid it into tight cornrows (贴着头皮) or twist it into a low bun—this creates a flat surface for the wig to lie on.
This step is crucial for all wigs, but especially for lightweight wigs, where lumps would be more noticeable. A flat base also helps secure wigs better, reducing slippage.
Slip the wig cap over your head, starting from the front hairline and pulling it back to cover all natural hair. Tuck any stray hairs under the cap—use bobby pins along the hairline if needed to keep the cap in place.
Choose breathable wig caps for comfort, especially if you’ll wear wigs all day. A well-fitted cap protects your natural hair and helps the wig glide on smoothly.
Hold the wig by the ear tabs (the small flaps near the temples) and tilt it forward. Place the front edge just above your natural hairline—too high looks unnatural, too low may cover your eyebrows.
Lower the wig gently over your head, adjusting the back to sit comfortably at the nape of your neck. For adjustable wigs (most modern styles), use the straps at the back to tighten or loosen until it feels secure but not tight. This ensures a custom fit for all head sizes.
Most wigs stay put with their built-in straps, but for active days or loose fits, add extra security:
-
Bobby pins: Slide pins through the wig’s cap and into your natural hair (or wig cap) at the temples and nape.
-
Wig tape: For lace front wigs, apply a thin strip of wig tape along the hairline for a seamless, long-lasting hold.
This step is key for wig users who need reliable hold—like those wearing wigs for events or daily activities.
Once the wig is on, style it to match your desired look:
- Use a comb to shape layers or part the hair.
- For curly wigs, gently finger-comb to avoid frizz.
- For lace front wigs, pluck a few strands along the hairline to mimic natural growth.
Blending is what makes wigs look realistic. If your wig has baby hairs, style them with a small brush and gel to frame your face.
-
Synthetic wigs: Avoid high heat (it damages fibers), so use low-heat styling tools or finger-style.
-
Human hair wigs: Can be heat-styled like natural hair—just use heat protectant to preserve quality.
-
Short wigs: Focus on positioning the front hairline; they’re lighter, so less adjustment is needed.
