6 Reasons to Wear a Wig

For years, women have worn wigs, enjoying the versatility and flexibility in styling they provide. The use of wigs dates all the way back to the ancient Egyptians, but they’ve never been as popular as they are now. With the improvements made to wigs over the years, and the modern styles that have become available, consumers are feeling more and more confident incorporating wigs into their everyday wardrobes. Here are just a few reasons why we think wigs are the best invention since sliced bread:

1. Convenience

Maintaining natural hair can be a pain, and the time wasted blow drying, styling, and coloring adds up. Wigs don’t require as much maintenance as natural hair, and styling them is a breeze. The convenience and effortlessness of wigs is why so many women opt for wigs over natural hair.

2. Unlimited Styles

Do you ever get the itch to do something dramatic with your hairstyle but are afraid of the commitment? So many people struggle with the same setback! Wigs offer the drama of a new style without any of the panic. Whether you want a bold new color and cut or just an enhancement, you can have it all. And if you don’t like it, just take it back off. The possibilities are endless!

3. Protection

Constantly styling and coloring your natural hair can take its toll. As do all those UV rays from the sun. Allowing your hair to take a break while you let your wig do all the work is another benefit you can’t beat.

4. Disguise for Hair Loss

Many women suffer from hair loss or thinning hair. Whether because of chemotherapy, alopecia, or just unfortunate genes, hair loss for a woman can be devastating. Throwing on a wig or hairpiece often provides a much needed boost of self-esteem!

5. Confidence

Whether you’re going to work or an event, or are just hanging around the house, having a good hair day seems to make everything a bit better. Wearing wigs makes every day a good hair day! No more worrying about how your natural hair looks or whether you can style it perfectly—a great wig has all that covered.

6. Fun

Wearing a wig is a fun and easy way to spice up your style and try on different personalities. If you love to dress up, wearing wigs for halloween, special occasions, or costume parties is a great way to step outside the box and try something new.

Words of Wigdom
The secret to a perfectly natural look is a slightly imperfect part, says Designer and CEO, Alan Eaton. “Gently reposition strands along the part line or snip a few wispy pieces using manicure scissors—AND some restraint—for a slightly messy part that looks all your own.”

“Throughout my 20-year career, women’s comfort has always been at the top of my mind,” says Designer and CEO, Alan Eaton, whose Stretch Cap Technology hugs the perimeter while eliminating pressure points for maximum comfort.”

For first-time wig wearers, “The trick is to stay close to the color of your eyebrows,” notes Designer and CEO, Alan Eaton. If not, “then consider dyeing your eyebrows to match your chosen wig color.”

“Few people know that wigs can be styled just like natural hair—and that most hairstylists are happy to give your wig a custom cut,” says Designer and CEO, Alan Eaton. “Trimming bangs and shaping to your exact specifications can help make your wig indecipherable from your own natural hair.”

Words of Wigdom™
“The “Grey Hair, Don’t Care” trend—which saw women embracing their grey—is stronger than ever. And not just with the over-50 crowd. “Silver is chic, edgy and looks great on almost anyone,” says Designer and CEO, Alan Eaton, who offers nearly every EnvyHair™ and synthetic style in 3 multi-dimensional grey shades.”
