How to Put on a Wig Without Anyone Noticing?
The key to wearing a wig without anyone knowing is confidence. If you’re too focused on the fact that you’re wearing one, it can show through your body language. Things such as frequently touching your hair, avoiding eye contact, or keeping your head too still can make others notice something unusual.
If you act naturally, people won’t notice. Even if your wig isn’t perfect, most won’t pay attention. We often criticize ourselves more than others do. What feels like a big deal to you might go unnoticed by everyone else.
While you may be focused on your hairline or how your wig moves, other people are usually not paying that much attention. Confidence is what makes the difference. If you feel good wearing your wig, others are unlikely to give it a second thought.
How to Make Wigs Look Natural?
Here are some simple tips to help your wig blend in like real hair:
Know Your Size: Make sure your wig fits perfectly by measuring your head. Write down measurements like the circumference and ear-to-ear length. This helps you choose the right size instead of guessing.
Pick the Right Density: Wigs come in different densities, like 130% or 200%. For a natural look, avoid overly thick wigs. If you have fine hair, stick to a lower density, like 130%.
Go for Realistic Lengths: Super-long wigs can look less natural. Choose a length that feels comfortable and realistic for everyday wear.
Match Your Skin Tone: Choose a wig color that matches your skin tone—cool, warm, or neutral. This helps the wig look more natural on you.
Add Highlights and Lowlights: Natural hair has color variations. Pick a wig with highlights or lowlights to avoid a flat, single-color look.
Consider Shaded Roots: Wigs with slightly darker roots mimic how natural hair grows and add to the realistic effect.
Style the Baby Hairs: Many wigs come with baby hairs. Use a toothbrush with hairspray to style them naturally.
Cut the Lace Properly: When cutting the lace, avoid a straight line. Use a zigzag cut to create a natural hairline.
Layer Your Wig: Add face-framing layers or overall layers to make the wig look less bulky and more realistic.
Adjust the Hairline: Place the wig’s hairline in a natural position. If you have bio hair, blend it with the wig for a seamless look.
Use Concealer on the Parting: To hide knots on the parting line, apply a bit of concealer that matches your skin tone.
Step By Step Guide on How to Put on a Wig
Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to help you wear a wig comfortably and securely:
Prepare Your Natural Hair
Begin by preparing your natural hair to create a smooth base for the wig. If you have short hair, brush it back and secure it with pins or a headband to keep it flat against your scalp. For longer hair, consider braiding it into two to four braids, depending on your hair thickness, and wrapping them evenly around your head, securing them with bobby pins. This method helps in creating a flat surface, making it easier to wear the wig.
Choose the Right Wig
Selecting the appropriate wig is important for achieving a natural look. Choose the style, length, and color that best matches your desired appearance. Wigs come in various materials, including synthetic and human hair. While synthetic wigs are more affordable, human hair wigs give a more natural feel. Make sure the wig cap fits your head comfortably; many wigs come with adjustable straps to help with sizing.
Wear a Wig Cap
A wig cap helps keep your natural hair in place and provides a smooth surface for the wig. Place the cap over your hair and make sure that it’s secure but not tight. This step is important if you have little or no natural hair, as it helps the wig stay secure and protects your scalp.
Put on the Wig
Hold the wig by the ear tabs (the small straps on the sides) and tilt your head forward slightly. Position the front of the wig at your forehead, then pull it back over your head, aligning it with your natural hairline. Use the ear tabs to center the wig on your head, and make sure it’s even on both sides. Adjust the wig to your desired parting and style.
Secure the Wig
To prevent the wig from slipping, you can use wig clips, tape, or a wig grip band. These accessories help keep the wig in place throughout the day. Some wigs come with adjustable straps at the back. You can tighten or loosen them to achieve a secure fit.
