How to eliminate the lifting of the nape and sides of a wig

Fashion wigs are used for a variety of purposes, from everyday life to cosplay. However, there are some tricks you can use to make your wig look natural. In particular, many people are worried about the noticeable floating of hair around the nape and sides. This time, we'll show you how to keep your wig from floating and give it a natural look.

Causes of wig floating

Lifting of the nape and sides are common concerns with wigs. If it floats, your head will look larger and your natural hair will stand out. In such a situation, it becomes obvious that a wig is being worn, which spoils the natural look. So, what is the cause of the lifting of the nape and sides?

Cause 1. Natural hair is not tidied up.

In order to prevent the wig from floating, it is important to properly gather the natural hair. If the natural hair is tightly organized, the gap between the scalp and the wig will be reduced, making it difficult for the wig to slip.

To create a natural look, first put on a swimming cap, tuck your hair inside, and then put a wig net over it. This method allows you to tightly gather your natural hair.

However, this method can put pressure on your head, which can cause headaches if used for a long time.

Cause 2. The wig is not the right size.

If the wig floats even after you have neatly gathered your natural hair, the wig itself may not be the right size. It is important to choose a wig that matches your head size.

In recent years, wigs with highly elastic adjusters have also been sold. If you have a wig with an adjuster, you can easily adjust the size. Please take advantage of it.

How to deal with lifting of the nape

If you have long hair, even if you use a wig net, your hair may not be tidied up properly and may end up floating. Therefore, instead of forcing your hair into the wig net, try putting the wig net on after you have gathered up some of your natural hair.

Specifically, if your hair is long, braid it from side to side, wrap it from behind your ears to your forehead, and secure it with a hairpin. Afterwards, by wearing a wig net, you can gather the amount of hair evenly, and your natural hair will settle down neatly.

How to deal with floating sides

If you are concerned about lifting around the sideburns or on the sides, it is important to firmly insert the natural hair into the wig net and choose a wig that matches the size of your head. There are also ways to choose a wig with wires on the sides, or to use tape made specifically for wigs.

Wigs with wire on the sides allow you to adjust the sideburns to the shape of your head. In addition, wig-specific tape is useful when the natural hair in the sideburns is difficult to get into the wig net, or when securing it in place. However, those with sensitive skin should be careful as the tape may cause skin irritation.

summary

The trick to keeping your wig from floating is to gather your natural hair neatly and attach a wig net. If it is difficult to calm your natural hair with just a wig net, try using a swimming cap and wig net together. This method is recommended for wig beginners and is easy to try. Please try once.
