So this time, we will introduce some tips and techniques to make your wig look natural. Please use this as a reference and enjoy your wig life!

1. Why wigs look unnatural

In order to make a wig look natural, it is important to first understand the cause of the unnaturalness. There are several reasons why wigs look unnatural, but by knowing each reason, you can reduce the unnaturalness that is unique to wigs.

Below, we will introduce the reasons why wigs look unnatural, so pay attention to each one and wear a beautiful wig.

2. Why wigs look unnatural

First of all, the biggest reason why a wig looks unnatural is the position of the whorl. For natural hair, the whorl is located approximately in the center of the top of the head. Although there are slight differences between people, this is the position they are born with and cannot be changed even if you change or set the parting.

When putting on a wig, you need to be careful about the position of the twist. If you don't use the right wig, it may shift while you're wearing it. Even a 1cm shift can make it look unnatural, so be especially careful about the whorls when wearing a wig.

Separation is also an important element. For natural hair, the parting is determined naturally by the way the whorl is curled and the direction in which the hair grows. However, in the case of wigs, there may be no separation, or the parts may be strangely defined. This can also cause unnaturalness, so be careful about the position of the parting and try to make it look as natural as possible.

Furthermore, many wigs do not have a smooth feel. Although there are individual differences depending on hair type and constitution, natural hair does not bunch or clump. Even if you use styling products, unless you harden them, they will sway in the wind. However, wigs do not have this silky feel, so they can look unnatural.

The shine of your hair is also an important factor. There are some differences depending on your age, physical condition, and hair type, but healthy hair has a natural shine. However, due to the limitations of the material, wigs tend to have an artificial shine.

These are the main reasons why wigs look unnatural. By paying attention to these points when wearing a wig, you can create a natural look. Enjoy your wonderful wig life!

Tips to make your wig look natural

1. Use a swimming cap rather than a net

When wearing a wig, if your natural hair is voluminous, the wig may float, causing the nape to float and look unnatural. In this case, a breathable mesh swim cap will reduce volume and improve the fit.

2. Add volume to the top

If the top part is flat, it may look unnatural, so add volume around the whorl. Gently brush your hair back with a toothbrush to create natural volume. Furthermore, you can create a more natural look by hiding the part where your hair stands up with a headband or hairband.

3. Lighten your bangs

If the bangs are too close together, the wig may look unnatural. Use shaving shears to lighten the bangs a little for a natural look. However, be careful not to like it too much.

4. Choose a heat-resistant wig

Wigs made from heat-resistant fibers have a shine and texture similar to human hair. In order to reduce the shine of your wig and give it a natural look, we recommend choosing a heat-resistant wig.

5. Choose a color similar to your natural hair

When using a partial wig, it needs to blend in with your natural hair, but with a full wig, even if your hair color is slightly different, it will be less noticeable. However, choosing a wig with a color that is as close to your natural hair as possible will give you a more natural look.

How to prevent wig shine

1. Use matte hair conditioner

For wigs that are concerned about shine, it is effective to use matte wax or matte hair conditioner. This will help reduce shine.

2. Use antiperspirant spray

Spraying a light antiperspirant spray all over the wig will reduce shine and give it a natural look. However, be careful not to spray too close.

3. Use baby powder

You can remove the shine from your wig by lightly dusting it with baby powder. However, be careful not to leave any powdery residue, and finish to the point where you can no longer see the shine.

These are some tips to make your wig look natural and ways to keep it from getting shiny. Please put these points into practice and enjoy a natural wig life!
