How to Choose the Ideal Hair Wig Density for Your Needs

Determining what density wig should I get is crucial for achieving a natural and flattering look. At our wig boutique, we offer a wide range of wig densities to cater to every individual's preferences.

Understanding Wig Density

Wig density refers to the amount of hair fibers sewn into the wig cap. It is expressed as a percentage, ranging from light to extra heavy. The choice of density depends on the desired level of fullness and volume.

Density Range | Appearance

---|---|

Light (100-120%) | Thin and airy, ideal for everyday wear

Medium (130-150%) | Natural look with moderate volume

High (160-180%) | Full and voluminous, suitable for dramatic styles

Extra Heavy (200%+) | Ultra-thick and glamorous, perfect for special occasions

Choosing the Right Density

Consider your personal style, head size, and desired look when selecting wig density. Here are some guidelines:

Small head: Choose a light or medium density wig to avoid overwhelming your face.

Large head: Opt for a high or extra heavy density wig to create an illusion of volume.

Natural look: Medium density wigs (130-150%) are suitable for everyday wear and blend seamlessly with your natural hair.

Voluminous styles: High or extra heavy density wigs (160%+) are ideal for achieving glamorous, head-turning looks.
