How To Make A Wig With Bangs Look Natural
Wigs are very helpful in modifying your appearance and shaping your style, especially wigs with bangs, which can highlight your personality. But sometimes wigs may look a little unnatural, such as too bulging on the top or too dense hair. So, what are some ways to make your wig closer to your natural hairstyle? The following tips can help you easily get it done.
How To Make A Wig With Bangs Look Natural
1. Flatten the Top
If the top of your human hair wig is too bulging, it will affect the overall natural feeling. You can use a hot comb or straightening iron to gently flatten the top so that the wig can fit the curve of the head better and look more like your own hair. In addition, if you find that the bangs are too thick, you can use scissors to thin them appropriately so that you can maintain the beauty of the bangs without looking too exaggerated.
If the top is still too thick, you can also try to remove some hair pieces (wefts) from the inside of the wig, which can effectively reduce the fluffy feeling of the wig and make it fit the head shape more closely.
2. Darken the Hair Roots
For light-colored wigs (such as 613 blonde wigs and burgundy wigs), adding a dark effect to the roots can help enhance the natural look. You can try adding a dark color to the root area of the wig with a hair dye pen, spray dye, or a special wig colorant. This can mimic the way natural hair grows and make the wig look more realistic. Especially for light-colored wigs, adding dark roots can have a significant visual improvement.
3. Reduce Wig Density
If the wig looks too thick or heavy, you can use serrated shears to thin the wig. The key is to start thinning 2-3 cm below the root of the wig so as not to cut too close and make the top of the head look sparse. After reducing the amount of hair, the wig will look lighter and more natural overall. In addition, you can also search for some professional wig-trimming videos to learn more thinning techniques.
4. Wear the Hair Accessories
You can wear an HD wig cap under your wig, which can help hide your hair and make the wig fit better on the scalp. In addition, you can also try some small hairpins, invisible clips and other tools to fix the wig in the right position to prevent it from sliding, and the overall look will be neater and more natural.
5. Pay Attention to the Edge Treatment of the Wig
The edge of the wig (hairline and ear side) is the place that is easy to look unnatural. You can use wig glue or double-sided tape to fit the edge to the skin, especially the ear side. If the woven edge of the wig is too obvious, you can also use a makeup brush to dip a little loose powder and gently pat it on the edge to blur the boundary.
6. Adjust the Parting Hairline
Although the wig with bangs covers most of the hairline, the small hairline on the top still affects the overall look. You can use foundation or special wig concealer powder to slightly adjust the color depth of the hairline to make it look like a real scalp. If the hair volume on the top of the wig is too concentrated, you can also manually adjust the width of the hairline to create a more natural effect.
Final Words
The above methods are not only simple and easy to do but also can make your wig look brand new. Whether it is using a hot tool to flatten the top, add a dark root effect, or thin the density of the wig, every little trick can make the wig with bangs look more natural. Give it a try and let your wig become the perfect accessory for both style and naturalness!
