Wigs are a great choice for changing your style and appearance. For people with thin hair or serious hair loss problems, wigs are a good thing to help them return to normal life and bring self-confidence. From a fashion standpoint, using some nice wigs is also a great option. But it should be noted that wigs also have some pitfalls. If you have never dealt with wigs, or are planning to buy one, then this article is for you. By reading this article, you will avoid some trouble
Trap 1: Pursue cheap prices
According to some survey data, price is a very influential factor when people buy wigs. People tend to pay more attention to cheap wigs. Regardless of the quality of the wig, when people choose wigs, they will pay special attention to the performance of low-priced wigs. Especially when buying real hair wigs, people are more inclined to choose cheap wigs. This is a very normal phenomenon. After all, we all know that making money is not easy. To save is to save, is a kind of life wisdom.
However, the pursuit of cheap prices is a trap. Especially when buying wigs online. Many people buy human hair wigs at extremely low prices because of "coupons", "lucky prizes" and other reasons. And what they got was a human hair wig mixed with synthetic fibers. Go too far for cheap and you might end up with a faux-fiber wig or an empty package.
I'm not saying that it's wrong to seek cheap prices. What you should do is be wary of underpriced wigs. If you want to save as much money as possible, I recommend looking at wigs from big brands. They usually have big discounts on Black Friday. People who buy them on Black Friday are a smart and money-saving option.
Trap 2: Pursuing the Lace Area
As we all know, the larger the area of lace, the more natural look you can get. Therefore, some people will unilaterally use the lace area as a reference factor when purchasing wigs. Yes, buying
full lace wigs can give you an almost perfect wig experience. But it's important to note that it's not cheap. Don't overlook the price for the lace area. In addition, the larger the lace area of the wig, the more installation skills are required. Therefore, large-area lace wigs are not suitable for beginners in my opinion.
If you are a person who has never used a wig at all and does not know how to use glue to assist the installation of a wig. Then I recommend you to buy
glueless wigs. Although most glueless wigs can't give you a completely natural hairline, they can hide the hairline in other ways. For example, the headband of
headband wigs will naturally cover your hairline. so people won't notice you
Trap 3: Pursue the effect on the picture
When buying wigs online, the pictures displayed in the online store are a very important factor. Most people, including me, will buy a wig because of a nice picture of the wig. But it must be admitted that most of the pictures in the online store are processed and designed by hair stylists. Also, the lighting, angle, and camera equipment that took these pictures will make these wigs look even more beautiful. Therefore, if you find that the wig you received is different from what is shown in the picture, it is normal.
There is no need to be perfect. I mean, it's not necessary to ask that the wig you receive is exactly the same as the picture on the internet. If you are interested in a wig, then I suggest you go to Youtube to find the most authentic out-of-the-box evaluation. This will give you a more intuitive understanding of this wig. If YouTube influencers can make this wig beautiful, so can you.
Conclusion
Buying wigs online is risky. Buying a wig at a street wig store is also risky. You may have purchased a wig with synthetic fibers. You may also buy low-quality human hair wigs. The most worrying thing is that even if you spend a lot of money, there is no guarantee that the human hair wig you buy will be of high quality. In fact, I have found many wigs that cost thousands but are actually of poor quality.
If you don't know how to avoid being scammed. I suggest that you consult your black female friends around you. They tend to have more experience and skills in buying human hair wigs. If you don't have such friends around you, you can learn more about wig brands through social media. Wig brands such as Luvmehair, which serve more than 10 million black women, tend to have better quality assurance.
