Things To Consider When Buying
Human Hair Lace Front Wigs

One of the biggest decisions in choosing a lace front wig, or full lace wig, or any kind of wig, is whether you want to go with real human hair or synthetic hair? Well like a lot of things in life the choice is not that plain and simple. There are a few things to consider.

Synthetic wigs have come a very long way. They have significantly improved to the point where a good quality one can look extremely real. But the fact remains that real human hair is real human hair. And, human hair lace front wigs are the most natural looking option available!

Because, just like your real hair,  human hair lace front wigs can be cut, styled, permed, curled, or colored to suit your personal taste just as you would your own natural hair. You can’t really do any of this with synthetic wigs. Human hair lace front wigs for black women are just much more durable, and versatile, than synthetic laced wigs.

However you should also consider that human hair lace front wigs are more expensive that synthetic wigs. It is not difficult to understand that there will always be a limited supply of women willing to cut their hair and sell it to wig makers. And the ones that do can not simply come back next week and sell more hair. But those wig companies can make as much synthetic material as they want. For these reasons there can be significant price differences between the two.

Then you should also consider that human hair lace front wigs require more care than a synthetic wig does. They have to be shampooed, dried, styled and conditioned, just like your natural hair. And keep in mind that, just like your real hair, wigs made of 100% human hair are very susceptible to same things like hot summer weather, a humid day causing the curl to fall out, a wet day causing it to frizz up, a smoke filled room trapping all that cigarette smell in it, or just simply having a bad hair day.

In past years, black women had trouble finding good quality available in human hair wigs to choose from. There were some selections available but they just weren’t available in the wide range of styles that other types of human hair lace front wigs were for other kinds of women. However; in recent years, thanks to the Internet and the growing popularity of lace front wigs, all of that has dramatically changed for African American women.

There are four basic types of hair used in human hair lace front wigs:  Chinese, Indian, Indonesian and European hair. The most common is usually made from Chinese hair. And what most people consider as the best quality is human hair lace front wigs made from women in India. Caucasian/European is the strongest, most durable human hair for wig making. However, because there are less of these women willing to cut and sell their hair, it is not as readily available and is the most expensive.

How to Tell the Difference:

This is usually not an issue at all when making an online purchase because if it is a synthetic wig the company will simply say so, and often tell you what it is made of. And of course if it’s human hair lace front wigs they will definitely tell you that, and what kind it is.

But the easiest way to tell if a wig is made with human or synthetic hair is to pull a strand out of the wig and burn it. Natural hair will burn slowly and give off a distinctive odor, while synthetic hair will usually tend to melt and/or ball up when placed near flame, depending on the particular composition of the synthetic fiber, or will burn out quickly. In either case, synthetic hair will not give off an odor.

Advantages of Human Hair Lace Front Wigs:

*  More realistic appearance than synthetic wigs

*  Human hair lace front wigs have greater durability and will last longer

*  The same styling and maintenance requirements as your real hair; can be
custom-colored to suit; and can tolerate heat from styling appliances

* The physiological benefit some people may get just from knowing it’s real hair

Disadvantages of Human Hair Lace Front Wigs:

*  It reacts to climate the way your real hair does (may frizz or lose curl in humid
weather)

*  Human hair lace front wigs must be reset/restyled after shampooing, which can be challenging for
someone attempting to do so at home

*  Color will oxidize/fade with exposure to light

*  Hair will break if mistreated by harsh brushing, back-combing or overuse of heat
styling

*  Human hair lace front wigs can be heavier than synthetic wigs of similar style/length

*  Recent check for average retail pricing of natural hair wigs show a range from
around $150 to over $1000 and higher. This depends on style, length,
maker, percentage of human hair, where the hair is from and if it is a custom made lace wig.

There are many women who may not consider these as disadvantages at all. They feel that’s just what you have to do to take good care of your hair. However, if you are a girl who is considering price and looking for hair that will make you look gorgeous with little maintenance then you can absolutely accomplish that with a good quality synthetic wig.

But of course, we know that many women will always feel that no matter how good a synthetic lace wig is, it can never be as good as 100% real human hair lace front wigs.
