Fit and Feel
The fit of the wig is of vital importance for reasons of comfort and security. That’s why custom fitting by a professional produces the most desirable results. Why? The cap of the wig-the part that is directly in contact with your scalp-must conform to your scalp as closely as possible. This will prevent the wig from shifting on your head and will make it secure for you to wear. The feel is also important. A scalp bared by chemotherapy can often be tender and sensitive. And as hair begins to grow in, the scalp can also become itchy. Therefore, it’s advisable to choose a wig that’s created from only the softest, silkiest and lightest materials.
Types of Wigs
Wigs have come a long way in recent years. The advancements in the technology are so incredible; it is hard to determine the difference between a high quality synthetic wig and a human hair wig.It all begins with the wig base, referred to as a cap. This is the material to which the hair is attached in order to create the wig. The new cap constructions are lighter, more durable, and so much more natural looking! When choosing a wig, it is important to consider the cap construction – each approach has a specific method of attaching hair to the cap and offers its own set of advantages.
