Wigs have been part of the fashion world since Ancient Egypt. Whether they are used as a fashion statement or for hair loss, weaves have always been popular among men and women. However, sometimes it can be challenging to find the right hair replacement. Wigs made with human hair look more realistic than synthetic wigs — and they’re also more comfortable for the scalp. The style and color depend on your face structure and preference.
Human Hair Hand Tied Cranial Prosthesis
The base materials for hand tied human hair usually consist of a combination of thin materials meant to feel like skin. The materials may include polyester mesh, silk, monofilament or silicone. These wigs may have more of a non-slip material around the ears, front and nape of the neck. The wigs are usually made of European, Indian, Asian or Remy hair.
Vacuum Based Cranial Prosthesis
A vacuum based cranial prosthesis wig is custom-made to fit your head. A plaster mold is taken of your head to ensure a perfect fit and suction. This wig in particular will have a solid silicone base with European hair injected into the base material. Because of the effort that goes into making them, these kinds of wigs are expensive.
Hair Machine Made
There is a variety of human hair wigs and the quality depends on the kind of hair that is used. These wigs are usually made from European, Indian or Asian hair. While these wigs look very natural, they do require daily restyling.
Custom Quality Breathable Base Cranial Prosthesis
Custom quality breathable base wigs have a very thin skin like stretchable material with tiny ventilation holes. The base can also be trimmed around the perimeter for a custom fit and more natural appearance. Due to its ability for customization and ventilation, these wigs are very comfortable. The human hair has also had the cuticle removed to avoid tangling and provide easy care. This type of wig will need to be replaced every three to four months because of the delicate cap construction.
