Types of Human Hair Wigs: Faux wig & Natural Wig

Do you want to buy male wigs? But do not know what types are and how they differ from each other? 

A human hair wig is distinguished by the origin of the hair and the attachment and base to which it is attached.

On our site you can buy a male wig from popular wig brands.

There are several types of male wigs fastening:

1. Tambourine. The hairs come to the base only by hand. This method makes the hair look natural.
2. Tresses.Hair is woven into ribbons that are attached to the base. Tresses give the hair volume and allow it to stick in only one direction along the hair growth. Wigs made with this method are much cheaper than wigs made with the tambour method. Similarly, there is an even more budgetary option - lightweight weft. They are lightweight and do not thicken the hair.
3. Combination. Generally, we can combine both methods of hair attachment in one wig. On the front and edge parts, a tambour is common to use. Similarly, we can attach tresses to the back of the head. Furthermore, this method is good because it combines low price, naturalness and quality.

Generally, the base of the wig plays main role. Quality, price and fastening method will depend on it.

The foundations of male wigs come from the following materials:

1. Monofilament - used for manual fastening method.
2. Nylon tulle - tresses are sewn onto it.
3. Stretch mesh - suitable for tambouring and tress.
4. Strips of stretch fabric - tresses are attached to them.
   
   

How are male wigs made?

Despite the fact that natural male wigs cost a lot of money, it is popular. And all because such a wig looks as natural as possible. 

Before buying a natural wig, you need to know how these wigs transform in order to choose the most suitable option for yourself.

Basically, natural wigs come from real hair. And the first point in making a wig is collecting them. Hair comes from Europe, India, Asia. Only healthy and well-groomed hair is selected.

All hair goes through a proper treatment, disinfected and bleached. Moreover, we can paint it in the desired color. And after that you can start making a wig. 

Companies make male wigs of Slavic hair, Indian, Chinese. The former is good to consider being of better quality than the others. They have a thinner hair structure, which allows for maximum naturalness of the product. 

What is the difference between natural wigs, except for the origin of the hair? The basics.

They are:

- Mesh;

- Tress;

-And tress with mesh surface.

Tress is a piece of fabric to which hair is attached. Wigs only on a tress basis are available on smart budget, but they have a significant disadvantage - The scalp does not breathe in them, and such wigs are not suitable for long-term wear.

Mesh male wigs are the most expensive. Because they are made by hand, and this is a very painstaking work - each hair is individually attached to the net. These wigs are very light and comfortable to wear. Hence, it is suitable for long-term wear.

Tress with mesh insert - medium version. If your budget does not allow you to purchase a wig on a mesh basis, then such a wig will be an excellent solution. Made by half hand and suitable for long-term wear.

What are false male wigs used for? 

To hide the lack of hair in some areas of the head or to add volume to your hair. 

False hair includes:

• false bangs
• occipital strands
• overlays on the crown
• half wigs

Generally, false hair is lighter than wigs, attaches with small hairpins and does not feel at all in the wear. If you choose the right color for the patch, it will be difficult to distinguish it from real hair.

This is a great solution for those who do not need a full wig, but only need to hide some flaws or change their image. The hairstyle will look natural and you cannot limit yourself in the choice of styling. 

If you have thin and sparse hair, then overlays will be a good choice when changing your image, as they are completely invisible to others, and allow you to put them on and off without difficulty.
