How to Choose a Blonde Wig

Wigs are worn for a number of different reasons; a person may have lost their hair due to cancer treatment, or it can be used as part of a costume or as a temporary change to someone's look. Taking the time to pick a good wig will make a big difference on how it looks when it is worn.

• Pick a length and style. You want to look good when you wear your blonde wig, so choose a length and style that suits your face shape and features. There are numerous websites that give tips about what styles look best on each face shape. Fashion magazines often run stories explaining this as well. You can also try on a variety of different types of wigs to see which look best.


• Find the best shade of blonde for you. There are many different shades of blonde; some are cool tones and some are warm tones. The shade of blonde that will look best on you depends on your skin tone. Talk with your hairstylist to get advice about which shade of blonde suits you. If possible try to bring a picture or a hair sample in that color to the wig shop with you when you go shopping.


• Buy a high quality wig. You can find wigs made out of human hair or made out of synthetic hair. A wig of human hair is more expensive, but it looks and feels a more authentic than synthetic hair. A wig of human hair can be cut, colored and styled just like you would your own hair.
