How to Wear a Wig Cap
Wig caps work to cover existing hair or to add a better foundation for those with no hair. Putting on a wig cap is usually rather simple as it doesn’t require a whole lot of effort. When a wig cap is put on properly, it should fit comfortably upon one’s head.
Items needed:
- Wig Cap
- Wig
- Take a look at your wig cap to identify each part of it. One part of the wig cap is made to fit your forehead and the other portion sits on the neck area. The parts are pretty easy to identify, but if you’re not sure, some wig caps are labeled.
- Pick up the wig cap with both hands, and hold it over your head to prepare to put it on. Make sure to pull the ends outward to make room to insert your head into the cap. Do not crush it or fold the edges inward.
- Put the front portion of your wig cap on the forehead area where your hairline would naturally be. Stretch the back part to fit the area where your neck hairline sits. After the wig cap has been applied, adjust it until it fits snug to your head and sits perfectly.
- Push any hair that is sticking out up underneath the cap. Make sure to check all sides of the cap for any exposed hair. Leaving your real hair exposed will not make the wig cap look natural.
- Pin your wig to the wig cap appropriately, and style your hair how you see fit.
