There’s no denying to the fact that wigs can make you look wonderful and add to your self-esteem! But they become difficult to manage without the right tools and the right wig accessories.
After all, what’s the point of having a stunning and confident look if you’re constantly adjusting it or worrying about it slipping off?
Wearing a stunning women’s wig that demands attention or a men’s wig that boosts your self-esteem involves much more than simply placing it on your head and hoping for the best! (Yes, this is true to the point).
We have seen too many people messing up perfect wigs because they skipped on the basics.
You know what we mean, right– those awkward moments when someone’s wig is obviously visible..well, of course, we can see you are wearing a wig!
In this blog, we will share 10 must-have wig accessories that every wig owner should know.
Here are the Top 10 Necessary Accessories Every Wig Owner Should Have:
The most important wig accessory is a WIG CAP!
Firstly, all those shorter hairs around your forehead and neck should not be visible, and a wig cap will make that happen.
Secondly, your natural hair must be as flat to your head as possible, as you obviously want your wig to sit evenly on your head, minus any lumps and bumps. It’s much easier to spread your natural hair around the head once concealed with a wig cap.
In the list of must-have wig accessories, a sturdy and adjustable wig stand sits in second position. It is essential for proper wig care and styling.
It will allow you to securely store and display your wigs, keeping them in their original shape between multiple uses.
When styling, a wig stand acts as a miniature head, making it easier to work with and create various hairstyles.
This is one of the innovative accessories for wigs that fit smoothly around your head while making sure that your wig stays secure throughout the day.
Usually, such synthetic/human hair wig accessories are made from stretchy fabric, offering comfort while preventing slipping.
Synthetic wigs easily get tangled. Miserable weather, hair fiber rubbing against clothing, and careless storage are the triggers behind tangling.
Here are wig care essentials you can adopt- Use your fingers to loosen and separate any tight knots first. Also, any wide-tooth comb is perfect. Start from the bottom of the hair and gently work up to the crown, using the comb to remove any tangles carefully.
Expert’s TIP – Round brushes, teasing combs, bristle brushes, and rattail combs should be avoided.
Wig clips are essential wig tools, sometimes sewn or glued into the wig cap to provide extra security, especially for those with shorter hair.
Wig clips, on the other side, are essential items for wig wearers because they keep the wig in place during physical activities.
To achieve that organised, natural-looking hairline, adhesives and tapes are essential wig accessories for wig owners!
Opt for a wig adhesive or tape specifically designed for lace front wigs. These products provide a secure hold without causing discomfort or leaving residue, giving you confidence in your day-to-day activities.
Indeed, it can’t be overstated how important it is to protect your wig when it is not used. Looking after your synthetic/human hair wig can genuinely increase its life span for months.
So, how to store wigs? Opt for a wig storage box (one of the most necessary wig accessories) to place your wig securely. You can also use a coat hanger with clips and hang wigs in your wardrobe by turning your wig inside out and attaching the clip(s) to the internal adjustable strap.
Whoever invented dry shampoo deserves a big, shiny medal. He or she has saved our precious time on the mornings we’ve slept in and kept our hair (wigs) looking fresh throughout the day.
Applying a small amount of this dry shampoo to your wig not only decreases the excess shine (this is for synthetic wigs specifically), but it also adds a human-hair-like texture to the lengths.
Synthetic hair wig accessories also include wig shampoo and conditioner designed to maintain their appearance and increase their lifespan by preventing buildup and keeping fibers smooth.
Seriously, if you cannot treat your wigs right, they can get messy (especially when your wig density is high) and that’s why you need a good detangling spray.
It is one of the essential wig tools, especially when you are wearing an “AFRO” hair system. A few spritzes, and suddenly, your wig becomes smooth. Plus, detangling sprays add a touch of moisture and movement, making your wig look natural.
In conclusion, investing in these top 10 essential wig accessories ensures your hair system’s comfort and longevity.
