Hand tied wigs and double monofilament wigs are the most comfortable wigs to wear, especially if you have a sensitive scalp. Wigs with hand tied caps have the hairs individually knotted to prevent the fibers from poking and irritating the skin. A wig with a double monofilament top has an extra piece of fabric covering the mesh material for extra comfort.
For more comfortable wig options, think about your lifestyle and preference in materials.
- If you’re looking to want a natural hair part or change a wig’s part, consider getting a wig with monofilament. Monofilament wigs have see-through mesh material that lets the color of your scalp show through the hair. The hair fibers can either be sewn or hand tied in sections into the top portion of the cap, allowing the tied hairs to be brushed or parted in any direction.
- Lace cap wigs are similar to monofilament because the hairs are sewn or hand tied into the lace material.
- If you live in hotter climates or traveling somewhere warm, consider getting a basic cap with. A wig with basic cap construction is designed by sewing sections of hair, also known as wefts, into a thin elastic material. The open spacing around the wefts allows air to pass through for a breathable style.
For extra comfort, you can wear a wig cap or liner. It will help protect your scalp from your wig and also prevent sweat, oils, and makeup from building up.
