Why is wig density important?
Density affects the appearance of the wig-lower density wigs are significantly thinner than higher density wigs. If you want to look attractive, a high density wig will give you all the volume you need. Furthermore, higher density wigs can improve styling capabilities, whereas lower density wigs may not be full enough to achieve certain looks.
Density influences wig care – The recommended wig care routine differs for low, medium, and high density wigs (more on this later).
Density influences your wig wearing experience – When you flip your hair back and forth in a high density wig, you’ll feel like a queen. A lower density wig may not provide the same level of luxury.
Density affects wig prices – high density wigs are more expensive than low density wigs. This is due to the fact that a high density wig has more hair.
How to classify the density of wigs？
Light density wigs
Light density wigs are best for those who have fine or thinning hair. They are also a good choice for those who want a more natural look or who want to create a more subtle change in their hair. Light density wigs are also a good choice for those who live in warmer climates, as they are more breathable than heavy density wigs.
60 – 90% density: This is the lowest density available – it is often described as ultra-light.
100 – 110% density: This is another very light wig density that you won’t find on the market.
Medium Density Wigs
Medium density wigs are a good choice for those who want a complete look without going too heavy. They are also a good choice for those who want to cover up hair loss or thinning hair. Medium density wigs are also versatile and can be styled in a variety of ways.
120 – 130% density wigs:This density is the standard for the wig market. It is favored by many due to its subtle volume and natural fullness.
150% density wig: 150% density is for people who like a little fullness in their wigs. Due to its popularity, it is easy to find.
Large Density Wigs
Thick wigs are best for those who want a very full and voluminous look. They are also a good choice for those who have very thick hair or want to hide severe hair loss. High density wigs are also a good choice for those who want a more dramatic look, such as a costume or theatrical performance.
180% density wigs: 180% density wigs are a little fuller than 150% density wigs. This density level is good for both short wigs and long wigs.
200% Density Wigs: 200% density wigs are considered to be voluminous. They are great for longer styles and looks, but still work well for high buns and shorter styles.
250% density wigs: 250% density wigs are the fullest, most luxurious wigs on the market. They are perfect for big celebrity-inspired looks.
How do I select the appropriate wig density?
Preferred hair style and length: It is critical to consider the desired length and style when selecting a wig density. Hair types and lengths can have a significant impact on the overall appearance of a wig. High densities complement longer hairstyles and straight hair. Lower densities are ideal for shorter hairstyles and thicker hair.
Natural hair density: Select a wig that matches your natural hair density. If your natural hair is fine and thin, for example, you should select a wig density in the 130% to 150% range. A higher density wig (180-250%) will give you the most natural look if your natural hair is very thick and full.
Lifestyle: One of the most important factors to consider when selecting the density of your wig is your lifestyle. If you sweat a lot or engage in strenuous exercise, a wig with a lower density will keep you cool. If you want to wear a wig on a date or a girls’ night out, a high density wig will give you the fullness you require!
Age: Consider your age when selecting a density level for your wig. Our hair naturally thins out as we age. As a result, if you want to look realistic and are over 50, you should consider wearing a wig with a lower density.
Wig texture： Consider the texture of the wig when selecting a density. Curly textures, for example, give the illusion of fullness, so curly wigs may not require as much density; straight wigs tend to look less full, so a higher density is usually a better choice.
Material: Wigs of the same density may appear differently depending on the quality of the hair and the material used. We recommend that you choose a wig made of 100% virgin or remy human hair wigs for the best overall look.
