Wig styles that are especially hot this year can help you update your personal style. A major benefit of wearing wigs is that you can easily change your hairstyle and color depending on what’s in style. Here are some trending wig styles that you can try out now.
HD Lace Wigs
Natural-looking hairstyles are very popular this year. For people who wear wigs, one way to achieve this look is by wearing High Definition (HD) lace wigs. High-definition lace is a lace material that is essentially invisible after a wig is applied to your scalp. This allows you to have a natural-looking exposed hairline.
Cuts
Layered hair is part of the resurgence in popular ’90s hairstyles. Layers add volume to create a soft and sexy look for short, medium, or long-length hair. Layered wigs are available so check them out.
Bobbed wigs with bangs reflect another popular style this year. Bangs work for straight, wavy, or curly hair and they cover the hairline.
- Blunt bangs– Blunt bangs have a sharp, linear cut. This style of bangs looks great on people with oval or oblong faces.
- Curtain bangs– This is a longer cut where the bangs are parted and pushed to the sides of the face. This style is great for everyone because of its face-framing effect.
Shag cuts are trendy this year and require less maintenance for wig wearers. This laid-back style looks effortless and is easy to maintain. Just shake out your wig, add a little hairspray or wig safe mousse, and you’re good to go. Mullet hybrid looks are part of this shag style. Also, ask about the availability of a wolf-cut styled wig. According to celebrity hairstylist, Sarah Potempa, “The wolf haircut is a mix between a vintage shag and a slight mullet. Essentially, it’s like taking two different periods -the ’70s shag and ’80s mullet- and smashing them together into a modern-day look.”
Color and Styling
Wig wearers have historically been bold in experimenting with hair colors. Contrasting roots is a popular coloring technique this year. Try brunette-colored roots with your blonde wig or go bold with silver hair and pink roots.
Ponytails are an essential style for active people, but this year, ponytails are a hot hairstyle for everyone– wig wearers included. Think Ariana Grande or Jennifer Lopez.
- 360-degree wig ponytails: 360 lace wigs are natural-looking and comfortable feeling. They have lace all the way around the hairline so you can easily pull the hair into any style of ponytail.
- Bundles and drawstring ponytails: For those looking to add extra oomph to their natural hair, you can create voluminous ponytails using bundles or a drawstring ponytail. Slick back and style your natural hair, then attach the ponytail.
The parting of your hair in the middle is another 90’s callback that is hot this year. This style looks great on any hair length, gives a youthful look, and helps to elongate the face. If you have a hand-tied wig, you can change the part yourself using a wig comb. For those with classic caps, you’ll need to find a wig style made with a center part.
