While average size wigs tend to fit about 95% of customers, you will find that quite a few wigs also come in petite and large sizes. Consider that many also have adjustable straps that give up to 1.5” so that you can achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
To determine the right size wig for you, measure the circumference of your head from the front hairline, behind your ear, to the nape of your neck, to your other ear and then back to the front hairline. Jot down your measurement then consult the table below. Please note that sizes may vary slightly by brand and that not all wigs are available in all cap sizes.

Wigs have the power to completely change the way you look! The perfect wig should complement both your skin tone and face shape. Your hair color and skin tone has a dramatic effect on your overall look. This is why color temperature is important when choosing a wig color!
Color temperature simply refers to a cool or warm tone that a color gives off. These warm and cool tones are crucial to finding the most natural looking wig. The key to selecting wig colors to compliment your skin tone is remembering that you don’t just have to stick to one color! Feel free to play within the color range in your temperature. And never forget: Makeup has the power to make any hair color, your color!
Choosing colors can be challenging, especially when wigs come in as many as 40 different color options. This is complicated by the fact that one’s idea of brown may be different from another’s idea of brown. The letters and numbers in the color description come from a color system called the color code developed by the wig industry based on natural human hair colors.
Black colors range from 1 to 1B,
Browns from 2 to 12, and
Blondes from 14 to 26.
Platinum colors are blondes with less warmth in them.
613 is a golden platinum that’s the perfect balance between blonde and platinum.
Platinum colors range from 22 to 23, then jump from 101 to 104 which have more ash in them.
The grey family goes from 34 to 60.
The red family is split between natural reds and vibrant reds.
Natural reds range from 27 to 33
Vibrant reds range from 130 to 134
The letters in the code come from the manufacturers color key system. These letters tell you how colors are combined to create the color of a wig. We recommend that you check out each brand page on our website for more information about manufacturer color key systems. And remember, if you need assistance on color choice don’t hesitate to call one of our experienced client care specialists to help you find the perfect color.
Have you ever noticed how hair color looks different depending on the lighting? This is because color is the effect of light reflecting off pigment. For instance, a red wig outside under natural light will appear brighter with higher contrast than the same wig in indoor lighting. This is why the hair color in your summer vacation photos looks a lot different than it does in the interior lighting of your home! Lighting is one of the many factors that affect hair color.
The type of fiber as well as the length and texture of the hair on the wig can make color appear different. If you have three styles in the same color, the color will appear different on all three because of how the fibers are distributed throughout the wig. Three different cuts with the same color will appear slightly different as well.
Texture effects the way color looks because of the way light reflects off the curly or straight fibers. When you give that long, straight wig some curls it really brings out the highlights and low-lights in the hair. Color on human hair will look warmer, cooler on synthetics and the heat friendly synthetic wigs will vary depending on the manufacturer. These unique characteristics ensure that no matter what wig you choose, the color will always be uniquely yours. Now you can shop more confidently knowing how to find the color that works best for you!

Step 1: Detangle
Before you wash, make sure you carefully detangle the hair using a wide tooth comb. Start from ends and work toward the root to decrease shedding.
Step 2: Rinse
Use lukewarm water and rinse from roots to ends. Do not soak as this can lead to tangling. Tip: If your wig is curly, try leaving the hairnet on
Step 3: Shampoo
Loosen shampoo in your hands and work through the hair. Distribute a small amount of shampoo evenly throughout the hair. Tip: Use circular motions to clean the cap
Step 4: Condition
A) For synthetic hair: Spray leave-in conditioner from the mid-shaft to the ends. Tip: Avoid the root or knots B) For human hair: Leave in for a few minutes before rinsing. Do NOT apply conditioner to the root. Tip: If dry or damaged, use a deep conditioner
Step 5: Rinse
Let lukewarm water flow in the same direction of the hair to avoid tangling. Squeeze and press the hair; do NOT wring. Tip: Towel blot to remove excess water
Step 6: Dry
A) For synthetic hair: Air dry on a folding wig stand Tip: Gently part the hair with a comb before wig dries B) For human hair: Blow dry about 80% and then round brush until smooth
