Disadvantages
Security
If your wig is not well constructed you run the risk of your wig slipping off. To avoid such embarrassment, we suggest having your wig professionally made and ensuring you receive a consultation with your stylist so they know the best way to keep your wig secure without damaging your own hair.
If It Looks Like a Wig…
If your wig is not tailored for you then it is likely that it will look unnatural.We suggest having an experienced professional construct your wig so they can advise on what will suit your head shape, the best density, size, and a lot more detail that will have your wig looking natural.
Hair Loss
You may experience hair loss – particularly at the hairline – from wearing wigs due to i.e. the wig being too tight, which creates friction resulting in pulling on the hair; hair loss may also occur if your stylist has not used the right wig cap, or from using wig combs as those do pull on the delicate hairs. Every stylist has their own technique so a consultation with your stylist is highly recommended so you know how to minimise your chances of hair loss.
Expensive
Though wigs are a great investment and money saver (think about how many times you may have a weave installed in a year versus having onewig for years), it may become an expensive obsession if you are the type that likes to change your look frequently. Perhaps think about re-styling your wig rather than purchasing a new one every time – add some colour and have it cut into a different shape, which will make a world of difference. It will look like new!

Due to the sheerness of the lace used at the bottom of the wig, a lace front wig is more vulnerable to damage than wigs using a thicker and sturdier base. Thanks for telling us the comparison of what is positive and negative in this.
I never knew that it was normal for celebrity women to wear wigs! My friend recently burnt off a section of her hair, but finds it embarrassing to wear a wig. I think telling her this would help her feel more comfortable.
Hi Bethany
Yes, it's no secret that celebrities use wigs, weaves and different hair systems to make their hair look fuller, thicker and glossier for their film, TV and red carpet appearances. There's no shame in wearing a wig - many women see them as a fun accessory for switching up their look. And wigs have ditched their old fashioned connotations – you can get a very on trend look nowadays by getting it cut at your hairdresser's. A wig would be ideal for your friend to cover up her hair while her hair grows back.
