Are You Committing These Wig Errors?(9 Things You NEED to Know)

2023-01-05

If you don't take the time to properly learn how to wear your wig if you've never worn a wig before or if you've just worn one or two times. You might be committing one of these frequent errors.

You'll want to make sure you're not making these blunders since we want to make sure you have a great experience wearing your wigs. Here are the top 10 humiliating errors and suggestions about how to avoid them.

1. Not wrapping or pinning your hair

Your goal is to make your wig as unnoticeable as possible. Without hairpins, your wig will probably seem unnaturally bloated on your head.

2. Cutting off excessive amounts of lace from a lace front OR wearing your wig too low on your forehead

You want the lace to be seen at the part rather than along the hairline to make sure the wig looks realistic. Similar rules apply if you're not wearing a lacefront: you want the wig to begin exactly where your natural hairline does, and then you want the bangs or front of the wig to extend from that point.

The lace she is wearing is seen in the picture up top.

3. Do Not Add Any Products To Your Wig

It's a frequent misperception that wigs should not be washed or treated in any way. ADD SOME PRODUCT TO YOUR WIG, YOU NEED IT! This is essential. Since wigs don't naturally create oils, you will need to add a few things to keep your wig soft, healthy-looking, and in good condition.

4. Trying to Be Perfect

Have you ever heard the phrase "nature doesn't build straight lines"? You see, nobody's hair ever looks entirely beautiful, and your hairline isn't perfectly straight. In reality, it frequently doesn't seem good when you see someone with a perfectly styled wig.

Make your wig as natural-looking as you can on your head and hairline without trying to make it look perfect.

5. Making a Wig Glue Or Wig Adhesive Mistake

Make sure the adhesives dry clear before using glue or adhesives to secure your wigs or other accessories. Some of them leave behind residue that, when seen, is pretty ugly and makes people notice your wig. Some of them also produce a gloss that lingers on your forehead and gives your wig an unnatural appearance.

To ensure that you won't experience any of these problems, make sure to read reviews on the wig adhesive. 

6. Inconsistent textures and styling

It will appear uneven and out of place if you wear a wig that is not the same texture or style as your real hair. It can be incredibly challenging to style your hair when you're wearing a wig with a texture that differs from your real hair.

7. Donning an incorrectly colored wig cap

Surprisingly, this has an impact. particularly if you're sporting lace front wigs. The improper color wig cap actually makes the wig cap visible, alerting people that you are donning a wig.

It will be awkward if you push your hair out of your face and the cap that is covering it is apparent.

8. Using an unflattering style or not styling the wig at all

Another issue is not styling the wig after purchasing it or styling it in an unflattering manner. Not correctly styling your wig might cause early wig deterioration and have an impact on how your hair appears.

Instead of having an unsightly style when wearing a wig, you want your hair to be styled to perfectly suit your face so that you appear wonderful.

9. Not Tying Your Wig Down

When wigs are improperly fastened, they can fall off or start shifting. Nothing is scarier for wig wearers than worrying that their wig will fall out.

Use the combs included with your wig or bobby pins to keep it in place.

You'll be in great shape if you can keep from doing these things!
