Tips to Choose The Right Wig

A new hairstyle will completely change your appearance.

Using a wig when you want to experience new hairstyles instead of spending hours doing hair is a trend that many beauty followers love. This also avoids damaging your natural hair. Hair can change, but the face can’t. Recognizing the shape of your face will help you choose the right wig, highlighting the contours of your look.

Oval face

The oval face is considered the ideal face shape. Because this shape is proportional and suitable for almost any wig style, the choice will depend on your preferences. The most suitable wigs for oval faces will be those with bouncy hair to highlight the facial contours. You can choose long hairstyles with side slanting bangs or medium-length hairstyles with layers cut to complete your look.

Square face

The characteristic of the square face shape is that the jaw is angled to equal the width of the forehead. Therefore, it is best to stay away from straight hairstyles. A short bob hairstyle with volume at the top and sides will reduce the squareness of the face and perfectly accentuate the jawline. If you want to soften the edges of your face, layers or waves can help.

Round face

Girls with round faces often have wide, round, and full hairlines in the area below the cheekbones. The widest part of the face is where the cheeks and ears are. So the best wigs for this face shape should create volume at the top and straighter at the cheekbones to make your face appear slimmer. Side parted hairstyles are also great because they soften the fullness of your cheeks. Avoid rounded hairstyles at the jawline. This style will reflect the shape of your face and add to your roundness. Long wigs will be the perfect choice for ladies.

Heart face

The shape of the heart face usually has a wide forehead, high cheekbones, and a narrow chin contour, which looks like an inverted triangle. Hairstyles with bangs that fall across the forehead will make your face look more symmetrical. A lob or long bob hairstyle will also be a perfect choice. Try to avoid hairstyles with volume at the top. This style will make the narrow chin stand out more and make your face look disproportionate.

Diamond face

The diamond-shaped face is characterized by narrowing at the forehead, wider at the cheekbones, and narrowing at the chin. So your cheekbones will be the widest part of your face. With this face shape, you can easily enhance and at the same time soften the edges of your face. If you want your jawline to look slightly wider, a long or medium-length wig with a straight or wavy look is perfect for your face.

Long face

Usually, the forehead and jawline of a long face are similar in width, and especially the cheek line is straight. So the secret to choosing wigs for girls with long faces is to increase the width instead of the height. A wavy wig with loose curls will be the ideal way to balance the face. Short hairstyles are also short enough to add some volume to your look.
