Today, the technology behind developing synthetic hair is so advanced
that you won’t actually be able to tell the difference between synthetic hair
and natural hair wigs at first glance. Synthetic hair wigs are capable of
replicating the denier and texture of natural hair with amazing accuracy
provided you are prepared to pay the price. In fact, a synthetic hair wig of
higher quality will be next to impossible to distinguish from natural hair or
costlier human hair wigs unless
examined by a professional hair stylist and that too if he has natural hair to
compare it with side by side.
Convenience
The biggest advantage of synthetic hair is that it comes straight out
of a box. You don’t have to worry about styling or conditioning your hair and
whatever you do, wherever you go, your hair stays in place. The fiber employed
to produce synthetic hair wigs has memory which facilitates wave, curl and
volume enabling the hair to bounce back in place with no major effort. You have
no reason to worry about drooping or frizzy hair at any point in time.
Affordable Style
Synthetic hair wigs are much cheaper in comparison to human hair wigs. There are a couple of
reasons for this. Though synthetic hair comes out of a box and offers a lot of
convenience, what you lose out on is the versatility of natural hair that you
get from human hair wigs. You cannot
style them to give you a distinct look every day. This kind of makes it
artificial and you have to get accustomed to not styling your hair on a daily
basis and simply popping on a hair piece.
Longevity
Durability is another factor that sets synthetic hair wigs a notch
lower than human hair wigs. While
wigs made from natural hair can last anywhere from 8 months to a year, even
high quality synthetic hair can last a maximum of just 6 months. That being
said, this disadvantage is kind of leveled out by the fact that you can afford
to have more than a couple of synthetic hair wigs for different styles since
they are much lower priced than human hair wigs.
