And for those who do not have such a thick head of hair, a wig correctly selected in color and structure will be a good solution to any hair problems.
Advantages and disadvantages of wigs.
Each type of wig has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. There is a conditional gradation into "live" and "dead" wigs. Some are made from natural hair, others from artificial strands. Artificial products include kanekalon products - extracts of seaweed, synthetic ones are made from nylon, modacrylic, canton and vinyl. The natural product is purchased from Europe and Asia.
The most popular product is from India. It is considered an honorable and profitable business there to donate your hair for processing. In this country there is a custom to completely cut off hair after significant events in life: healing from serious ailments, long-awaited recovery and other "gifts" of fate. The hair is donated to the temple as a sign of sacrifice, where it is bought up by dealers and, after processing, sold to distributors. Temples earn several million a year from the "sacrificial" temple hair. Indian hair grows well, so this business is booming.
Raw materials are sorted, processed, discolored and painted again, and then put into production. Hair of different structure and quality can be used to make one wig. This is due to the imitation of "their" hair, heterogeneous in structure, color and appearance. The strands can be pre-dyed in the desired colors.
European wigs are more expensive than domestic ones. Very cheap ones have a characteristic shine and are short-lived. These wigs tend to roll quickly and lose their shape and appearance.
Inexpensive models will be relevant in the case when a person wears them from time to time or constantly changes them, buying new ones.
Quality wigs are made from thermal fiber. They look real and are resistant to heat, baking and styling. Piggy products include not only wigs, but also semi-wigs, as well as false hairpieces, "tails", braids and other aesthetic devices and accessories.
Some people are forced to wear wigs out of necessity to hide traces of biochemistry, for example. Others believe that such accessories are very convenient, do not require constant investment of money and time. Still others buy wigs in order to radically change their image, image. Depending on the motivation, wigs perform different functions and also have their own characteristics.
An inexpensive synthetic hair wig can be purchased for occasional use. For everyday use, it is advisable to have a good expensive natural hair product.
The structure of this device is folded in such a way that it looks like a hat with tufts of hair. The fit of the product depends on its quality. For example, the base of wigs - montyur, is a separate strip with fixed hair, sewn together. They are arranged in a stepped overhead manner: tier to tier. At the place of the parting and the crown, there are always special overlays that cover the montage. As a result, the hair is arranged in steps, but in such a way that the base is never visible - one tier will always overlap the base of the other.
To hide the hairline, all wigs have different bangs. In her absence, cross-over half-wigs are used, partially covering the head. A good quality wig is almost indistinguishable from "native" hair. Transformability is one of the benefits of a wig. To increase volume, create highlighted or colored strands, as well as hide unwanted areas of the head and face, special lightweight models have been created. They are heterogeneous, equipped with special cells in which their own hair is embedded. In the reticular structure of such products, parts of the occipital or parietal region are absent.
The only drawback of this design is the difficulty in distributing your curls in the wig mesh.
Historical wigs are used as attributes to create a stage image. Stage wigs designed for performances, masquerades and shows are not so demanding in terms of naturalness. They are much lower in price and quality, but they create a mood and help to enter a particular image.
High-quality wigs made of modacryl and kanekalon, unlike cheap ones, do not have an excessive shine, do not curl, do not deform and do not thin over time. Their hair is thin and strong, without excessive volume, easy to care for and style.
How to choose?
The choice of a wig depends on some features of the appearance. There are a number of rules for choosing products of this type.
- For a wig to look natural, you need to purchase models in natural shades, as close as possible to your hair color.
- When choosing, consider not only the quality of the wig, but also the haircut model that suits you. Beautiful wigs on display can look very different on different people. Each wig will fit differently.
- For a smaller face, choose wigs with short or cascading haircuts with a voluminous top.
- Bob-wigs are not suitable for everyone, but only for those who have a neat face shape. This haircut visually burdens the chin, due to which the oval seems to blur. If you still choose a square, then it is better from the number of models without bangs, with long hair.
- All wigs eventually take the shape of the wearer's head. This must be taken into account when buying. Usually after a week, the product fits well on the head and does not cause discomfort.
- The highest quality products are made by hand on the basis of monofilament - tulle, imitating the surface of the head. The invisible mesh along the hairline makes this accessory invisible, so it is impossible to tell if you have natural hair or a wig.
- A quality real wig must fit correctly with the owner's head. To do this, you need to choose the right size for the cap. In size, wigs are: small (mini) - up to 54 centimeters, medium (standard) - up to 57 centimeters and large (maxi) - up to 60 centimeters in volume.
- By hair length, wigs are divided into short - up to 25 centimeters, medium - up to 35 centimeters and long - from 35 centimeters or more.
- The structure of products can also be different: straight, wavy or curly.
- The manufacturer plays an important role in the selection. Quality brands cannot make cheap wigs. The exception is the models for the holidays, for example, for the "Jewess". Such products are always cheap due to their low quality. But it would never occur to anyone to wear costume wigs every day.
When choosing this or that model, keep in mind that its structure, color and shape will not have to be changed. Therefore, choose the original option right away.
Getting used to a wig, a person wears it like clothes, without psychological discomfort.
Wearing a wig does not require cutting your hair. It is enough to remove them under a special mesh hat. Then, if necessary, fix and lay, giving a natural look. You can comb, style and curl the curls as you like.
In the case of individual tailoring, wigs immediately "take root" on the head.
Products of mass production are equipped with special devices: hooks, elastic bands, clamps and Velcro to create maximum "grip" with the surface of the wearer's head. You can put the product on almost any head, since there are many options and devices for this.
Caring for the postage products ensures their durability. The lifespan of a wig depends on proper care. You can put on and wear an artificial wig for many years, or you can “kill” it in a couple of months. Care for wigs should be the same as for your own hair, regardless of the degree of their naturalness.
- Among the features of natural wigs is the need for styling after each wash. In case of rain and dampness, they also need special care. There are special sprays that protect these products from the effects of atmospheric precipitation.
- Natural products with the addition of thermal fiber are more resistant to various kinds of influences. They do not need additional styling even after washing. They are combed whatever you like. Natural products are best given to specialists. They know how to properly wash a wig without ruining it. If you decide to do it yourself, there are a few things to consider. For example, natural wigs are washed, on average, once every two months with a good shampoo, in a special net, and then they must use a conditioner.
- Synthetic hair wigs are washed much less often - once every four months and also use mild detergents with rinse.
- Dry wigs on a special basis so that they do not lose their shape. Sometimes, when you need to quickly tidy up the product, you can use a hairdryer, but it is better to dry it naturally. Comb artificial and natural hair only in dry form, carefully, avoiding contact of the comb with the base of the wig cap.
Using expert advice, you can count on your wig to serve you well for years to come.
