HOW TO MAKE A WIG LOOK REAL
Nov 02, 2023
Do you want to know how to make your wig look like it’s naturally growing from your scalp?
Here are seven ways to make your wig look real.
- USE A LACE FRONT WIG
A lace front wig gives the illusion of a natural hairline. If the lace matches your skin-tone, then that’s even better for a natural-looking wig.
- CUT THE WIG TO MATCH YOUR HEAD
You can also cut layers/different lengths into the wig to make it look natural with differing thicknesses.
- FIX THE HAIRLINE AKA PLUCK YOUR WIG
Most wigs are made using a machine. Therefore, the hairline and premade parts can look just a bit too perfect – which our natural hair isn’t. So, to give it that natural look, you’re going to need to fix the hairline with a tweezer.
Get a tweezer and pluck a few random hairs from the hairline and the center part. Now, don’t go overboard with this. We want it to look natural – not like you’re experiencing hair loss.
- BLEACH THE KNOTS
Again, this is a pro-tip for making your wig look oh so natural. And it normally works alongside plucking your wig. To make a wig, individual strands of hair are pulled through the lace with a tiny needle – sewn into the mesh base. This process creates tiny yet very noticeable knots at the base.
To reduce the visibility of the knots, you can lightly bleach them. The best method is to hold it up to a light so you can best see the knots and then use a tint brush to apply the bleach.
- DON’T OVER-STYLE YOUR BABY HAIR
If it’s one thing that can make someone quickly realize that you’re wearing a wig is the over-style baby hair along your hairline. So, go easy on the styling of the baby hair.
- STYLE YOUR NATURAL HAIR PROPERLY
One way to ensure your wig looks natural is to braid your hair before installing your wig. The flatter your hair, the easier it will be for the wig to fit on your head. In addition to braid, you can use cornrows, low buns, and some persons have luck with a ponytail.
- BUY A SOGOODHAIR WIG
