Do You Wear Human Hair Wigs?

Putting on the ideal side part wig — especially if it's human hair — is all about prep, placement, and styling. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you slay that side part wig seamlessly:

✅ Step 1: Prep Your Natural Hair

• Braid or slick back your natural hair as flat as possible to create a smooth foundation. Cornrows, flat twists, or a low bun work great.

• Wear a wig cap to keep everything in place and protect your hair.

✅ Step 2: Prepare the Wig

• Place the wig on a wig stand and brush it gently.

• Pluck the parting slightly (if needed) to make it look more natural.

• Apply foundation or concealer on the underside of the lace part to match your scalp tone.

✅ Step 3: Apply the Wig

1. Align the wig with your natural hairline, making sure the side part falls on your desired side (usually left or right, based on preference).

2. Use wig grips, combs, or adhesive (glue or gel) to secure it, especially around the part and hairline.

3. Use a rat-tail comb to define the side part and lay the part flat.

✅ Step 4: Melt the Lace (If It's a Lace Front)

• Use a lace adhesive or spray to melt the lace into your skin.

• Tie a melt band or satin scarf around your hairline for 10–15 minutes to blend the lace.

✅ Step 5: Style It

• Use a hot comb to flatten the roots along the part.

• Add curls, waves, or straighten the hair as desired.

• Lay down baby hairs (optional) with edge control for a flawless finish.

🔁 Maintenance Tip:

• Always store your wig on a stand and wrap the part area with a scarf to keep it flat between wears.
