What are 3/4 Wigs and Half Wigs? Learn & Look and Feel You’re Very Best!

 

 

¾ Wigs

3/4 wigs are essential partial wigs, just like wigs that you can blend from the front of your own hair. Many of these styles and designs can be worn like a headband and then blended in with your natural hair.

When to Wear a 3/4 Wigs

If you have some of your natural hair or all of it and just want much thicker hair, then a ¾ wig is a great solution. It attaches to your own hair and adds very natural-looking length and volume. ¾ wigs are perfect for hiding damaged hair and sporadic areas of hair loss. They are great alternatives if you are not quite ready for a full wig but still need some extra coverage.

Care & Wear

It’s important when wearing ¾ or half wigs to remember that they need extra care so that your own existing hair can remain healthy and strong. If you don’t regularly clean or wear your ¾ wig properly, it can damage your own hair, and wearing it for too long without removing it allows the scalp to breathe can cause a lack of oxygen to the skin and hair root tissues. Also, be sure to wear it properly according to instructions to avoid headaches.

How to apply a 3/4 wigs

To wear a 3/4 wig, you place the wig 2 inches back from your own hairline and blend it in with your own hair by brushing or teasing your hair over it. If you have chosen a headband wig, rather than one that is secured with combs or bobby pins, just put it on 2 inches back from your own hairline and you’ll have an easy, full head of hair.

Take a look at these favorite options below, so you can see how easily you can transform your look into a full, thick, and even longer head of hair if you choose.
