Unfortunately, when it comes to choosing the right wig density, it can be frustrating. That's why we're here. In this blog article, we'll tell you all about wig density and how to choose the perfect density for your next wig.
  
What Is Wig Density

Wig density measures how full your wig is: it is expressed as a percentage from low hair density (50-60%) to high hair density (200%-250% ). The density of the wig directly affects the fullness of the wig worn on. A low density wig will look thinner, while a high density wig will look fuller.

How Wig Density Is Classified

Wig density has many options, ranging from 50% to 250%. Densities are also classified as low, medium or high density. Let's explore the hot selling densities in the list below:

Why You Should Care About Wig Density

Wig density may be confusing to some and annoying to others, but one thing is for sure - it matters. It directly affects how your wig looks on your face, the styles you can create, how the device feels on your head, and more. Let's look further into the details in the following sections.

Density affects the appearance of the wig - a lower density wig will be significantly thinner than a higher density wig. If you want an attractive look, a high density wig will provide you with all the volume you need to achieve it. In addition, a higher density wig will provide you with enhanced styling capabilities, while a lower density wig may not be enough to accomplish certain looks.

Density affects your wig care routine - The recommended wig care routine will be different for low, medium and high density wigs.

Density affects your wig wearing experience - You'll feel like a queen when you comb your hair back and forth in a high density wig. A lower density wig may not give you the same luxurious experience.

Hair density affects price - High density wigs cost more than low density wigs. This is simply because there is more hair on a high density wig.


How to Choose The Right Density

Choosing the right wig density requires you to consider many factors, including your lifestyle, age, and more. Let's dive into these factors and more to help you choose the right wig density for you!

Your preferred hairstyle and length: When choosing a wig density, it is important to consider whether your hair is long, short, curly, wavy, etc. Different hair textures and lengths have a big impact on the overall appearance of a wig. High density works well with longer styles and straight hair. Low density is best suited for shorter styles and thicker hair.

Your natural hair density: If you wear your hair out a lot and want your wig to look like your own hair, you should choose a density that is similar to your natural density. For example, if your natural hair is fine and thin, you should choose a wig with a density close to the 130% to 150% range. On the other hand, if your natural hair is very thick and full, a higher density wig (180- 250%) will give you the most natural look.

Your lifestyle: Your lifestyle is one of the most important things to consider when choosing a wig density. If you sweat a lot or do a lot of strenuous physical activity, you should choose a wig with a lower density to keep you cool. On the other hand, if you want to wear a wig on date night or girls' night, a high density wig will give you the fullness you need to turn your head!

Your age: You may want to consider your age when choosing a density level for your wig. As we get older, our hair naturally thins. So, if you want a realistic look and you are over 50, you may want to choose a wig with a lower density.

Hair texture: When choosing density, consider the texture of the desired wig. For example, a curly texture gives the illusion of fullness, so you may not need a wig in a curl. Straight wigs tend to look thinner, so choosing a higher density is usually a better choice.

Material matters: wigs with the same density will look different depending on the quality of the hair and the material used. For the best overall look, we recommend that you choose a wig made from 100% virgin or human hair.

What To Do If Density Is Not Perfect

Sometimes you bring a wig home and realize that the density is not correct. When this happens, you have a few options.
If the density of your wig is too low, you should take the following steps to add more volume and fullness.
Remove a small section of the wig and backcomb them to create the illusion of more volume. To do this, drag the comb from the center axis of the section and pull it repeatedly toward the roots.
Use some hair clippers to dull your wig. Doing so will create the illusion of added thickness.
Use a curling iron, flat iron or curling iron to add some curls or waves to your wig to get more volume.
Try adding some dry shampoo to the roots of your wig to add volume.
If you purchase a wig with too much hair density, try any of the following tips. Use some thinning scissors to thin the length of the wig.
Pull out the perimeter of the wig to get a more natural looking hairline.
Apply some mousse to your wig, cover it tightly with a scarf, then remove the scarf to reduce the volume on top of your head.
