There are various wig types in the fashion industry today. Knowing the types of weaves will give you an idea of the best choice. It will also aid you in selecting the right weave according to cost. This article is an extensive guide on all you need to know about hair weaves.

What are the Best Wig Types?

Wigs can differ due to raw materials, construction methods, and installation. The purpose of a hairpiece is to cover the natural mane without causing damage.

On that note, it is safe to say that the best wig types are the Lace Front Wigs. This fact is due to the comfort they offer and the ease of installation. However, there may be other options you are likely to prefer. So, do read on.

Differentiating Wig Types

Categorizing weaves is the easiest way to differentiate them. There are a few things that are unique to various wig types.

Here are the ways to differentiate wigs:

Raw Materials: 

The two ways to differentiate wigs are – Synthetic and Human Hair Wigs. These pieces have vast differences anyone can spot with the naked eye.

Artificial bristles, fur, and other items make up synthetic weaves. This fact makes them less durable than human hair wigs, which are natural tresses. The latter, however, have high durability due to their raw material.

Synthetic extensions are prone to matting, while human hair weaves maintain a smooth look and silky feel.

Construction:

One can also tell a wig from other weaves by understanding its construction or making process.

Lace front wigs: 

This construction offers wig types that are suitable for anyone, even beginners. Lace fronts have a lace hairline that mimics the real thing. The rest of this wig is usually monofilament. One can trim the lace frontal just like the natural vellus. It also ensures the highest form of versatility.

Full lace wigs:

These wig types have a lace base. Unlike lace frontals, the entire weave is lace. This construction ensures comfort and allows airflow to the scalp. These weaves also have a higher versatility than lace frontals. One can part the tresses at any part. However, these weaves are on the thinner side. Hence they do not add a lot of volume.

Machine-weft Wigss:

These wig types are the creation of industrial sewing machines. The process involves sewing wefts to a horizontal strip that serves as the base for construction. This weave tends to be heavier than hand-tied wefts. However, it has better durability than other wig types.

Hand-tied Wigs:

These artificial tresses are the product of a very intricate process. The production involves knotting or tying wefts to a lace or monofilament base. The wefts are human tresses, making the wig lightweight and comfortable. It also offers high durability and versatility. This feature makes it the priciest of the lot.

Where to Buy Various Wig Types

Many vendors are available when it comes to the sales of wig types. However, it is best to go for sources you can trust. Do your research and choose the best hair extensions website for your wig needs.

Online Vendors:

You can order extensions from any shopping site online. However, to be safe, ordering directly from weave companies or brands is a better option. That way, you can make returns, track your order and contact customer service.

Beauty Shops:

If you dislike online shopping, you can buy wigs from any beauty shop or salon near you. This way, you can get a closer look at the product and feel its quality before purchasing.

A thorough knowledge of wig types will help you choose the suitable extension. With this concise guide, you are ready to purchase your next weave.
