Human Hair Wigs

Wigs for Beginners: The Ultimate Guide to Buying Your First Wig

A person with short hair, wearing blue gloves, sunglasses, and a green top, is adjusting a wig on a purple mannequin's head. The scene takes place in a colorful, eclectic room with various wigs and vibrant decor in the background.

Choosing your first wig can feel exciting but confusing, especially if you’re new to wigs. At Crown Lux, we understand how important it is to find the perfect wig that looks great and feels comfortable. Whether buying a wig for style or covering hair loss, we’re here to help you make the right choice. Our collection includes multiple types of wigs to match your preferences.

Understanding Wig Types

When it comes to selecting a wig, understanding the different types available is crucial.

Synthetic Wigs
Synthetic wigs are an excellent option for beginners. They are affordable and accessible, and they hold their shape well. Synthetic wigs, like our wet and puffy styles, come pre-styled. However, they can’t be heat-styled and may not look as natural as human hair wigs.

  • Advantages: Affordable, low-maintenance, and pre-styled. They hold their shape well.
  • Disadvantages: Limited styling options and may look less natural.

Human Hair Wigs
Human hair wigs are the best choice if you want the most natural look and feel. You can style and dye them just like your natural hair. Options like chocolate Remy hair and raw Vietnamese hair bundles are more expensive but last longer and look natural.

  • Advantages: Natural look and feel, can be styled like your hair and lasts longer.
  • Disadvantages: Requires more care and is generally more expensive.

Choosing the Right Cap Construction

The construction of the wig cap plays a significant role in how natural and comfortable the wig feels.

Lace Front Wigs
Lace-front wigs, like our high ponytail lace-front wigs, have lace along the front that makes the hairline look very natural. They also allow you to style the wig differently, such as pulling your hair back.

Full Lace Wigs
Full lace wigs, like the 613 straight wig, give you even more flexibility in styling. You can part the hair anywhere or even wear it in up-dos and ponytails.

Monofilament Wigs
Monofilament wigs have a soft, breathable fabric at the top that looks like natural hair growing from the scalp. They are perfect for people with sensitive scalps or those looking for 4C lace wigs.

Basic Cap Wigs
Basic cap wigs are more affordable and lighter in weight. Styles like our 20-inch body wave wigs come with volume at the crown for a fuller look.

Selecting the Perfect Fit and Style

Finding the right fit and style is essential for comfort and confidence.

Measuring Your Head
It is essential to measure your head to find a wig that fits perfectly. Use a tape measure to determine your head’s size, and check our size chart to ensure you get the right wig. We offer sizes for everyone, including 24-inch cap-size wigs.

Choosing Your Style
Consider your personal style and daily life when picking a wig. Do you want something bold, like a half-braided curly hair style, or something more natural, like Indian straight hair? At Crown Lux, we offer everything from long black wavy hair to curly wigs with braids in the front.

Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance is crucial to extending the life of your wig.

Synthetic Wigs
Synthetic wigs, like our wet and wavy braids, require special care. Wash a gentle shampoo made for artificial wigs in cool water. Let them air dry to keep them in good condition.

Human Hair Wigs
Human hair wigs, such as curly black wigs or 30-inch wigs, can be washed, conditioned, and styled just like natural hair. To protect the hair, use sulfate-free products and avoid too much heat styling

  • Storage: Keep your wig on a wig stand to maintain its shape.
  • Brushing: Use a wig brush to gently detangle the hair, starting from the ends and working your way up.
