What a half wig is, and how to put them on - Tutorial

To say that we love a half wig (sometimes called a ¾ wig) is an understatement — it's the easiest way to add volume and length to your hair in an instant and looks so incredibly natural.

A half wig starts at the crown of your head and covers the sides and back. Because it's all your own hair at the front, you get the length and fullness of a wig while keeping the natural beauty of your own hair framing your face.

Half wigs are built around a lightweight, slightly stretchy mesh cap so they easily fit all head shapes. One flexi comb attaches at the crown and another at the nape of your neck — so secure and comfortable you won't know you're wearing it.

How to Put on a Half Wig (¾ Wig)

1. 1

   Either make a ponytail (at the back of your head for short hair, or at the top if you have longer hair) or simply pull your hair back, leaving some hair at the sides and in front of your crown.

   
2. 2

   Place the front flexi-comb at the top of your head and slide it firmly against your scalp. For extra security, locate the flexi-comb at the bottom of the wig and slide it up into the hair at the nape of your neck.

   
3. 3

   Seamlessly blend your own hair over the seam — with or without a fringe. Accessories like a headband or head scarf work brilliantly too.

Wear With Confidence

The combs are flexible and keep the hairpiece very secure. If you have very fine or silky hair, cross a couple of kirby grips on either side of your head for extra security — or a little backcombing works just as well.
