The Benefits Of Lace Wigs

By Shawn Hunter


Women who are being treated with chemotherapy due to a cancer diagnosis are the citizens most likely to purchase artificial hair. However, there are many reasons both men and women might wear a hair-piece, and cancer is only one of them. When one wishes the piece to feel and appear like the real thing, then they should consider shopping for lace wigs.

This style of wig can utilize human, horse, or synthetic hair. The strands are hand-tied to a sheer base, sometimes called a sock, which is worn over the scalp. While the powdered periwigs of antiquity were intended to look fake, modern styles are intended to look very much like the real thing.

The sock is the part which is made of a lace-looking material that can be made of synthetic materials, but is often made of silk. It became the most popular type of hairpiece worn after a machine was developed which could make decorative laces more quickly. Because the sock can be made flesh colored, or designed to match the hair color of the wearer, this contributes to the natural look.

Historically, a wig was designed to look like fake hair because it was worn as a way to show that one was a member of a higher social class. Over time, these styles faded away, and the people who wore a hairpiece did so to cover baldness. Now we have a host of reasons one might adorn themselves in this way.

Men who are cross-dressers often wear fancy, long hair styles when they go perform in drag shows, or just wish to be seen and acknowledged as a woman in society. For women, hair is a defining characteristic of their femininity. Females who lose their hair due to illness or age are often faced with a serious self-image crisis, and wearing a wig can help them feel confident of their appearance in public.

Within society is not uncommon to be treated differently by the general public based on stereotypes and some rigid social rules of behavior. Some women like to temporarily go into the world with a different hair color in order to experience the world differently. Sometimes they will get one in their own natural color, but much longer, because they just feel like having longer, thicker, straighter, curlier, etc., hair.

When one has fine baby hair in the front of their hairline, this can be used to make their hairpiece appear even more natural. By combing down the wispy small hairs at the forehead, over the ears, and along the neck it creates a seamless appearance as it blends into the wig. It is so effective that the wearer can even adorn themselves in a pony tail or barrettes.

High-fashion hairdressers often recommend that their clients spend time in a wig when considering a drastic change to their hair color. In this way, they get to see themselves with the new shade, and experience how it goes with their wardrobe and lifestyle. This way they do not have the buyers guilt when their hair is changed permanently.the buyers guilt when their hair is changed permanently.
