How to Wear Wigs for Men
You can wear a wig if you are battling hair loss, to change your current look, or if you are wearing a costume. Once you purchase your wig, it is very simple to learn how to wear it. It may take you a few times to get it correct, but once you do no one will even know you are wearing it.
Supplies
- Wig cap
- Comb
- Wig
- Hair pins
- Hairspray
- Use a comb to comb your hair back and then place the wig cap on your head. You need to wear a wig cap because it will hold your hair down so the wig can fit correctly on your head. It fits on your head just like a hair net. Tuck any loose hair into the wig cap if any are showing. A wig cap will also protect your scalp if the wig feels itchy to you.
- Pull the wig on your head making sure it completely covers the wig cap. Arrange the wig as you desire until it looks natural. This may take you a few minutes. You may need to play around with it for a while until it starts to look natural to you. It may feel strange to you at first, but the longer you wear it the more natural it will feel to you.
- Put the wig directly onto your head without using a wig cap, if desired. This will give you a more natural look. You can use hairpins to pin the wig on your hair. Use the comb to blend in your hair with the wig hair until it looks natural. Use colored hair spray to spray onto your natural hair that matches the color of the wig, if needed. You can purchase colored hair spray at any beauty supply store.
