WHAT TYPE OF WIG DO YOU PREFER?Wigs are becoming one of the latest trends in the hair industry. There are many types of units to choose from depending on your needs and lifestyle. I love wearing a wig cause you can switch up styles, try out new hair color without harming your natural hair. With any protective style, you will have to care for your hair underneath the wigs to keep it healthy. You can purchase wigs from the hair store, have one custom made whatever option you choose with so many different wigs out there to choose from.
Here a little info on some of the different units to choose from: U-part wig- is “U” shaped cut out at the top so small amount of natural hair can be used to cover the wefted tracks. This type of wig will give you more of a natural feel to it. You still have to be careful with the hair that’s left out & not to use excessive heat that can cause heat damage.
