Ways To Style Blonde Wigs

Wigs have many purposes

Wigs have many purposes. Whether you are purchasing a wig for personal or medical reasons, a costume, or just to try something new, keep in mind that the style of the wig doesn't have to remain the same once it's off the rack. Depending on whether you have a synthetic half wigs, synthetic blonde wig or human hair blonde wig, many styling options are available.

Human Hair

Styling a human-hair wig is much like styling human hair extensions. You can use straightening irons, curling irons and styling products on your wig as long as you don't overuse them. Before styling, make sure you have a brush with bendable pegs; if the pegs are too stiff, they may pull the hair out of the lace cap or rip the lace.

Create a blonde-bombshell, Marilyn Monroe look with medium-size rollers, a little mousse and some shine spray. Wash the wig gently using a mild shampoo and let it air dry. Never style your wig when it is wet; even human-hair wigs tangle easily when wet. When styling, always place the wig on a wig block or a Styrofoam mannequin head. Once the wig is dry, begin sectioning off small pieces of hair and rolling them up at a downward, diagonal angle. Rake a small amount of mousse through each section before rolling. It is very important to keep your rollers all going the same diagonal direction, since putting them in straight looks uniform and unnatural. Once the rollers are in place, cover the wig with a hairnet. If you are using a wooden wig block, use your hair dryer to fully dry the hair while it is in the rollers. If you're using a Styrofoam or plastic mannequin head, it's best to let it air dry to avoid any melting. When the wig is dry, remove the rollers and comb through the curls gently with your brush, spraying it with a few squirts of shine spray. Doing this will create luxurious, shiny waves that curl naturally around your face, giving you a vintage Marilyn Monroe look.

Use a straightening iron on your wig to create a sleek, sexy look. Always make sure to wash your wig in between styling, since products can build up and make the wig look dull. While the wig is wet, spray a wide-toothed comb with shine spray and gently run the comb through the wig. Let the wig air dry. Before using the straightening iron, make sure it is on the lowest setting. Extremely high heat can burn or dry out your wig. Section off small pieces of hair and straighten each one. The smaller the sections, the straighter the wig hair will be. Finish the look with a low-alcohol wig spray or hairspray.

Also feel free to cut or color your human-hair wig if you want. It's best to have a professional do this, since wig hair does not grow back. When getting your wig cut, it is best to wear the wig in front of the stylist so he can get an idea of what cut would look best for your face shape. The same goes for color, since varying skin tones can determine which colors look best.

Synthetic

Synthetic wigs are created using a manmade material that looks similar to human hair. Synthetic wigs are best for use with costumes or temporary wear, since inexpensive ones can look fake. When styling a synthetic wig, brush it using a wire wig brush. Although a synthetic wig may look like human hair, it isn't; it stretches easily and tangles even more easily. Never use heat on a synthetic wig; that includes hair dryers, straightening and curling irons, and heated rollers. Using any of these products is a good way to melt your wig.

Styling options are available. If you have a straight wig, add a little curl by using small rollers. This will give the hair a subtle wave when brushed out. Finish the style with wig spray. For longer wigs, try adding braids or a low ponytail to mix it up.
