The Pros and Cons of Wearing Wigs

There’s also maintenance and duration to think about. Synthetic wigs are simpler when it comes to design, but they do not last as long as human hair wigs and they can even lose their shape. Human hair wigs offer realism, but if you want to keep the life of your wig, you have to wash, condition, and heat style it, just like natural hair. And both wigs will need to be replaced after wear-and-tear. And if you wear wigs every day, this can end up costing a lot of money.

The other part of the equation is fit and security. Poorly fitting wigs can shift or feel insecure, which can lead to discomfort and insecurities – anyone dealing with hair loss, even occasionally, knows how emotionally frustrating this can be. And the approach to wigs have changed over the years; wigs look great in photos and can feel great with new lace front or monofilament construction styles, but they do not always look great right outside the box and often need customization.

For the majority of individuals wearing wigs regularly – for fashion, medical or cultural reasons – these are real but manageable challenges. Select a proper cap configuration, purchase breathable wig materials and know how to look after your pieces to help stay satisfied with your wigs over the long haul.
