How to Read a Wig Description: 9 Things to Check Before Buying Placeholder

When buying a wig online, a single photo is definitely not enough. Before ordering, it's worth checking a few specifications on the product page — they will help you better understand what exactly you are buying and whether the model suits your requirements.

 

What to check

 

Product specifications part 1
✓ 1. Product Type: Is it really a wig?

To avoid possible mistakes (ordering a hairpiece thinking it's a wig) - always pay attention to the product type. If it says Ladies' wig, it's a women's wig. If you see topper or hairpiece, it's for partial coverage.

✓ 2. Hair Type: What is the hair made of?

The Hair Type field specifies the fiber type: regular synthetic, heat-friendly synthetic, human hair, or a blend. Care and styling depend on this. Read more about hair types.

✓ 3. Cap Construction: How is the base designed?

Terms like Lace Front, Monofilament Top, 100% Hand Tied and others affect the hairline appearance, parting, styling versatility, and comfort. Learn more about types of wig caps.

✓ 4. Cap Size: Will the size fit you?

Even if you usually wear a standard size, check the Cap Size for each model. It's better to rely on measurements in centimeters. More about sizing here.

✓ 5. Hair Length: Don't rely solely on the photo

Length is often specified separately for the fringe, crown, sides, and nape. The same length looks different on straight vs. curly hair.

✓ 6. Product Weight: Is weight important?

Consider this if you have a sensitive scalp. However, don't compare purely by weight, as length, volume, and cap construction all affect it.

✓ 7. Color: The shade name isn't everything

Pay attention to roots, highlights, and contrast. Watch our 3D models & mannequin photos, and video reviews to understand the true color.

✓ 8. Product Description: Read the details

The full description often contains details not found in the short table, like specific haircut features or cap technologies.

✓ 9. Delivery & Returns

Check delivery times for your specific color variant. Also, familiarize yourself with Exchange & Return rules, as wig return policies can be strict.
