ciara wig, best color hair wigs
No matter if you have many wigs or are just considering getting your first one, there is an ongoing debate about natural hair wigs vs synthetic wigs. So, let’s discuss the main features and benefits of both options so you can choose what suits you best.
HUMAN HAIR WIGS
Human hair wigs come in two categories: processed hair and raw hair. Raw hair is kept together to make sure the cuticles are facing the same direction as they would if they grew from the head. It ensures the most natural look as well as makes brushing easier. When hair cuticles are reversed, they will break easier.
BENEFITS OF HUMAN HAIR WIGS
Natural Look
These wigs are the most natural. The hair has a natural texture and shine; they can be fizzy, messy, etc., which sounds like bad points but these are the main factors that make it look like natural hair. No one’s hair is perfect. Moreover, natural hair has more natural color than synthetic hair, which often comes in a flat overall color.
Heat safe wigs
Human hair can be styled like your own hair, with heat appliances. That means you can curl them, blow-dry them, flatiron, and crimp without doing any damage to hair fibers. You can also change their color with dyes.
SYNTHETIC WIGS
These wigs are made of artificial fibers, such as Toyokalon or Kanekalon, to keep their shape and always look perfect. And while some people just put off the idea of wearing these wigs, there are plenty of points to consider before saying ‘no’ to them.
BENEFITS OF SYNTHETIC WIGS
Permanent Styling
These wigs are also known as drag queen wigs as they don’t require styling on a regular basis. For many women, escaping this step is the reason they want to wear these wigs. Since synthetic wigs are less expensive, you can easily choose several styles and then rotate them. This works best when you choose wigs that have similar color and lengths.
Better Technology
There are synthetic wigs that are made of high-quality fibers that look just like human hair. Technology is getting better, which means there are more and more natural-looking wigs to suit different needs.
Color Retention
Human wigs can fade with time, but drag queen wigs will retain their bright color permanently. Of course, it means they can’t be recolored but you can always get different wigs in different colors.
As you can see, both synthetic and human hair wigs have their benefits. They are quite different, and only you know your needs and wants. Optimally, you can have a human hair wig to wear on important dates and with fancy looks, and then a synthetic wig that you can wear every day. Both types of wigs are great choices for different occasions.
