Wig Choice
Wigs are as much about comfort and confidence as anything else. It is important to get the right wig for your needs that fits properly. Browns are wig specialists, please contact us for help and advice regarding your wig requirements.
Choosing a wig
- Take a relative or friend with you for support and to help you with your choice of wig.
- Remember that the wig can be cut and styled to make it feel natural (It is a good idea to check that your hairdresser or wig consultant has experience of cutting wigs.)
- The wig should be a comfortable fit and can be easily adjusted.
- Synthetic wigs are light and easy to care for. They are often pre-styled so can be washed and left to drip dry. They are also cheaper than real hair wigs.
Wearing a wig
- If you are worried about your wig falling off, try securing it with hypoallergenic double-sided tape, which is available from Browns. One side of the tape stickers to the inside of the wig while the other side sticks to your scalp. When you take it off you can remove any leftover adhesive with surgical spirit. We can also talk to you about other ways of securing your wig, just contact us.
- If you have a ready made wig and wear it every day it will last about three to six months.
- Wig caps can be worn to create a comfortable fit over hair.
- Avoid excessive heat, steam and naked flames.
