Wig Styles

What each style actually looks and behaves like day to day — including the parts that are harder to live with.

01Body Wave WigsBody wave is a forgiving texture for a first wig. Its loose S-shaped movement breaks up the uniform fall of the hair without needing the regular redefinition of a tighter curl. The pattern will soften with washing, so some restyling is still part of ownership.02Straight WigsStraight is the easiest texture to look after and the hardest to make look real. It holds its character for years and asks almost nothing of you — but it shows every flaw in the parting, the hairline and the density, because there's no movement to hide behind.03Bob WigsA bob keeps most of the hair above the coat collar, reducing friction and tangling at the nape. It is light, quick to brush and practical for frequent wear, but it gives you fewer options for tying the hair back or changing the shape.04Wigs with BangsA fringe covers the front lace, which is the part hardest to make convincing and the part people look at. That makes it the easiest wig to wear well, particularly for a first wig or for concealment. The cost is that you can't change your mind — the fringe is cut and it doesn't grow back.05Highlighted and Ombré WigsMulti-tonal colour is the strongest single argument that a wig is real hair, since nobody's head grows one flat shade. The cost is that the lightened sections have been processed twice, so they're drier, more fragile and the first part to go brassy.06Loose Wave WigsLoose wave usually shows a visible S-shaped pattern, while body wave has gentler movement. Because sellers use these labels inconsistently, judge the size and spacing of the wave in several photographs and check whether the hair was shown damp.

Every page here has to answer a question someone actually asks and end with a decision you can act on. When we can't do both, we don't publish the page — which is why this list grows slowly.
