I Don't Even Want To Think About Wigs

Modern wigs, including human hair wigs, are very good. They cannot be detected from natural hair. And like everything wigs have their advantages and disadvantages.

Have you considered the cost of hair transplant surgery? Sure it's effective, but not everyone can afford it. Wigs are dramatically cheaper and certainly worth considering if cost is a major factor for you.

For anyone thinking about buying a wig for permanent use, rather than just occasional use, human hair wigs are best. A good human hair wig will last around three times longer than a synthetic wig and will look more natural. They also feel more natural.

Before the 1960s all wigs were made of human hair. Now synthetic is much more common. Particularly amongst those who buy a wig for occasional use just for a change of look.

But where do I go to buy a wig?

You have a couple of choices. There is an enormous variety and choice of wigs online, and like most things, they are cheaper that way. However wigs are often a very personal thing, and many like to browse, try on everything in the shop and really make sure that you are happy with the look. So that one is up to you. Online is great, but not so easy to try the wigs on. And of course, it depends on whether there is a good wig shop near you.

And it is also worthwhile checking out a local stylist who is familiar with styling wigs, as it doesn't hurt to take your wig along for a change of style now and then.

How much do wigs cost?

Wigs are an extremely cheap method of hair replacement. Online you can buy wigs for $50, good ones too. However you can also spend quite a bit more than that. And your wig won't last your lifetime, so it won't be the only one you buy, however even a few are way cheaper than most of the alternative hair replacement methods.
