Material & feel
Choose a fiber wig if you want easy everyday wear, quick styling and a good price. Choose real hair if you want maximum realism, greater freedom in styling and a longer lifespan.
Size & fit
Measure your head circumference and compare with the size guide. Most wigs are “medium” (approx. 54–57 cm) but adjustable straps make a big difference in comfort.
Need & use
When it comes to hair loss or treatment, many prioritize soft cap construction, light weight, and natural hairline. For fashion, color, length, and bangs may be most important.

Wig care & maintenance – step by step
-
Wash properly
Wash every 8–15 uses. Use wig shampoo, and lukewarm/cold water for fiber wigs. -
Dry naturally
Allow to air dry on a wig stand. Avoid drying on the head or with high heat. -
Style carefully
Brush from the ends upwards. Heat only if the wig is heat resistant – and always on a low temperature. -
Daily routine
Protect from sun, sweat and friction. Store cool, dry and preferably in a protective case. -
Long shelf life
Real hair: care like natural hair with a gentle routine. Fiber: stick to gentle products and avoid overstyling.
