In summer, the temperature is too high and it always makes people feel sultry and uninspiring. If you still want to wear a wig to make your hair look fuller and nicer, try these ways to freshen up your hair.
How to wear a wig in hot weather?
So, even in summer, you can take the following steps to make sure you feel comfortable.
1. Choose the right wig style
However, if you want to go outdoors, it's best to opt for shorter wigs.
Some of the looks include textured pixie cuts, sleek bobs, and wavy lobs.
They are lighter and above your neck, giving you room to breathe.
2. Choose the right wig color
Another thing to consider when wearing a wig in hot weather is color.
For example, black absorbs a lot of heat, while white reflects all light instead of absorbing heat.
Similarly, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple, in that order, absorb less heat.
If you don't like these bold colors, don't worry, you can wear brown too.
3. Wash your wig often
Under normal circumstances, we recommend that you wash your wig every 7-9 times.
As I mentioned earlier, human hair wigs collect all that excess grease and sweat, making your wig heavier and later hotter.
If you don't wash your wig, this extra weight can damage your wig hair and wig cap.
In addition, if your scalp is sensitive, these oil deposits can cause skin breakage.
4. Wear the right wig cap
Hand-tied wig caps, have built-in ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable.
Alternatively, you can purchase wig caps and padding to keep you cool even in the hot summer months.
When buying hats, look for synthetic or bamboo hats with moisture-wicking fabrics to keep your head from sweating.
5. Decorate your wig
If you feel very hot and uncomfortable while wearing a wig, you can also use accessories to your advantage.
They help enhance your appearance and protect you from extra heat.
A good example is a headband or hairpin.
They help remove hair from your face and improve your style.
You can also use sunglasses or hairpins to keep your forehead cool.
6. Cooling tips
If you're wearing a wig and the heat is becoming unbearable, running water on your wrist is the easiest way to cool down.
This technique is common among runners -- the science behind it is the surface of the blood vessels near the pulse point. Coldwater or ice will cause your body temperature to drop quickly.
If you really can't stand the sultry heat brought by a wig, try wearing a thin hat.
