Lace Wigs Can Look Like Your Real Hair

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.

Whether one splurges on human hair, or takes a less expensive animal or synthetic variety, they want their piece to look real. The sock is the lacey part of the piece, and each strand of hair is hand-tied to this sock which can then be worn over the scalp. In Europe they used to wear powdered hair pieces called periwigs, and these looked fake quite intentionally.

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.

Back in the day a wig was supposed to look fake because it was delineating social and economic status. As this sort of style went out, both men and women wanted their hair piece to appear natural and flow like real hair. This is not just to cover baldness, but different people have a variety of reasons for wearing artificial hair.

In this day of gender bending, men who wish to appear as women can accessorize their feminized look with a hair piece which fools the world into believing they have long locks, in any shade they choose. Women who are feeling less feminine due to the hair loss which can occur with illness or age have the same option. Rather than giving in to a self identity crisis, people have learned to combat these discomforts in life.

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.

Anyone considering a drastic and permanent change of hair color is often recommended by their hair dresser to wear a wig in the new color for a period of time. It is not uncommon for both men and women to experience remorse after such a big change. They may not care for the color on their skin tone, and it may even clash with the majority of their wardrobe.
