Purchasing a wig for the first time can often be a daunting experience. Familiarising yourself with the professional terminology in the wig industry and understanding the key points to focus on when making your initial selection requires a significant amount of effort. For this reason, we have carefully compiled a guide to help you make a better choice when selecting a wig.

Choosing the Right Style

When choosing a wig, you need to determine the direction of the look you desire. Perhaps you prefer a wig style that closely resembles your natural hair, maintaining a consistent image. Alternatively, you might be eager to break away from the norm and try a completely new look. Whatever your choice, deciding on the colour and style will be the first step on your journey to selecting the perfect wig!

Understanding Wig Construction

Once the style is chosen, the next step is to consider which wig construction best suits your needs. If you prefer a lightweight feel with hair that doesn’t cling to your face, then Ailsa's front lace design will be your ideal choice. It allows you to freely comb the wig hair, creating any hairstyle you desire. This way, you can customise the wig to best fit your personal style, ensuring that wearing Ailsa's exquisite new wig feels both incredibly comfortable and confidence-boosting.

Comfort & Security for Hair Loss

For those experiencing hair loss, choosing a wig that is both stylish and aesthetically pleasing, while also being secure and comfortable to wear all day, is crucial. Similarly, Ailsa's lace front wigs excel in this regard. Many of our lace front wigs come with a discreet anti-slip polyester band cleverly integrated into the front design of each wig. This thoughtful feature ensures that your new Ailsa's wig stays securely in place all day, without any worries of it slipping off!

Hand-Tied Wigs for Styling Freedom

If you are passionate about exploring a variety of hairstyles, then a hand-tied wig is undoubtedly the ideal choice for you. It allows you to enjoy ultimate comfort and natural beauty while freely changing your look. Ailsa's hand-tied wigs feature an inner mesh cap, with each strand of hair meticulously hand-sewn by skilled artisans. Moving away from traditional wefted and machine-sewn techniques, these wigs offer a very natural appearance. This means you can style the wig according to your personal preferences without compromising its natural charm!

 

Human Hair vs Synthetic Wigs

When choosing the right wig for yourself, a crucial decision is whether to opt for a human hair wig or a synthetic wig. Human hair wigs are often regarded as the pinnacle of wigs, offering a texture and appearance almost indistinguishable from real hair, though they come at a higher price. However, it’s worth noting that synthetic wigs on the market today have also achieved a high level of realism, looking extremely natural. Understanding the pros and cons of each type will provide valuable guidance on your purchasing journey, helping you find the one that best suits your needs!

Finding the Perfect Fit

For first-time wig wearers, selecting the correct cap size might seem like a small challenge. But rest assured, it’s not that complicated. Cap sizes range from child/petite, petite, petite to medium, medium, and large. To help you better understand these sizes, we have prepared a detailed wig size guide. However, based on our experience, the medium size is the best choice for most customers. Ensuring you select the right cap size will not only make your wig fit more snugly but also significantly enhance comfort, making the overall look more natural and seamless.

The Role of Wig Caps

Before purchasing a wig, consider whether you need to use a wig cap. This choice largely depends on personal preference, but for those with more sensitive scalps, it can serve as a protective layer, ensuring the wig stays secure and comfortable throughout wear. Wig caps are affordably priced, and we highly recommend trying one out for yourself. Throughout this process, always remember that the primary principle of choosing a wig is to ensure it provides unparalleled comfort!
