“It saves my life” –A Story from Illinois – UniWigs Review

UniWigs recently received a positive review from one of the hairpiece customer who is from Illinois of the United states. She loves our 5’’X5’’ natural straight remy human hair lace closure so much. And we are so happy to share this story with dear you.

Her name is Patricia and she said “THIS IS A LIFE-SAVING PRODUCT! I’m 37 and have been suffering from gradual hair loss near my hairline and crown for over 20 years.

I tried all types of products/methods to hide my problem from those around me, especially since my hair is still falling out it, I was worried about not having a permanent solution! Plus, the time I spent covering up my problem was interfering with my life plus my scalp always felt yucky! When I discovered UniWigs, I was worried that people will know I’m wearing a wig. Wigs are norm in some circles, but definitely not in mine (it’s looked down upon)!
But, it turned out to be worth the risk! If you are considering this product, I highly recommend it.”

This hair topper is an easy and natural fix to my problem! I don’t have that dirty yucky feeling anymore! After some experience with it, I realized it conceals very well.

I recommend washing it when it is first shipped to you. When it arrives it will be very silky, but after washing it, it had more body (a very good thing!) and matched my natural hair texture.

Sometimes I do want that silky look so I use a heat protectant spray and a flat iron and everything still looks natural! The quality is so great! Like anything else, it took some getting used to having clips in my hair (just 3 weeks) but after that, I always forget I’m even wearing it!

My life has drastically improved. One of the best parts is that no one seems to know what I’ve done, except that I walk around knowing my hair looks good and I don’t have to worry about things I used to! I feel like a new person! Bu this product and be amazed! THANK YOU, UNIWIGS!”

WIG CAP CONSTRUCTIONS

To choose a wig is to choose a lifestyle. When you look at a wig, you are not only looking at the hairs attached, you want to understand how they are made, with what kind of magic technologies can those hairs look so real. Here at UniWigs, we offer the highest quality wig products. We also make every effort to be informative and considerate. This is a detailed catalogue for our customers to understand what type of foundations (also referred to as caps) our wigs are attached to. Based on different materials used on a cap, we divide our wig constructions into the following categories. It is common to combine more than one material on a single cap.

BASIC CAPS

Historically, a wig is used for adding the volume of hair or to disguise baldness. For a long period of time, the foundation of a wig is made of net or mesh with hair wefts1 sewn on it. This is the oldest and most economic way to manufacture a wig. Therefore such wigs are the most durable and affordable.

Traditional
1. Summary: The most classic cap, added a net layer to the crown in order to maintain the shape of the wig.
2. Material: Flower net front, ultra-thin wefts, memory mesh base.
3. Crafts: Open wefts sewn on cap base, with a net layer overlapping the crown.
4. Features: Durable, stable, affordable.

Capless
1. Summary: It is called capless because it’s super light weight, almost undetectable.
2. Material: Memory mesh, ultra-thin wefts.
3. Crafts: Ultra thin wefts sewn on memory mesh, with open space in between the wefts.
4. Features: Lighter weight, airy, affordable.

Hand-tied Caps

As time goes by, classic weft-sewn wigs no longer meet wig wearers’ needs. They seek for more comfort and more natural looking. That’s where hand-tied2(also refers to as hand-knotted) caps come to sight. This type of cap involves a great amount of manpower hours, yet it offers a highly natural look, lighter weight, and super comfort.

Depending on different materials hairs are hand-knotted into, there are three types of construction fabrics used on UniWigs products: lace, monofilament, and silk. Each approach has its own features and meets various needs. And they are usually combined with each other or other materials due to high manpower demands and cost, such as wefts or stretchy mesh.

Lace base snuggles with scalp perfectly, it is soft, breathable, and can be freely combined with any other materials. Soft , snuggly, breathable, free parting, different colors available. 3-4 strands of hair knotted at each cross.
Monofilament: Parting in any directions desired, the base is invisible, natural-looking. Fixed shape, perfectly fit the shape of your crown, natural looking, free parting, transparent skin tone available. 1-2 strands of hair knotted at each cross.
Silk: Our highest end cap structure, most complicated crafts and looks most natural among all product lines, invisible knots, looks just like your own skin. Just like each strand of bio hair growing from your own scalp.

Note 1: To weave the root ends of the hair onto a warp of three silk threads to form a sort of fringe called a “weft”. The wefts are then sewn to a foundation made of net or other material.
Note 2: It is a fine handmade craft where artists use a small hook, which is called a “ventilating needle”, to knot a few strands of hair at a time directly to a suitable foundation material.
Note 3: Monofilament(refers to as mono hereinafter) is a type of fabric that is widely used in textile industry. For a wig construction usage, it is knitted into a mesh that is more delicate and more comfortable than lace closure when applied to scalp.

Glue or Glueless
When we put on a wig, it is expected that the wig WILL securely stay in place. No moving around, no falling off. We do not want to encounter any of those awkward moments where our little secret is revealed. For this purpose, skin-safe adhesives or hair pins are the easiest options. We also offer more efficient options with none or less adhesive. With our uniquely designed, tight and invisible combs and clips sewn on temples and back, and adjustable straps fastened around nape, you can keep a peaceful mind that your wig will always stay where it is.

Uniwigs FAQ (1)

How long can I wear my wig at a time?
Your extended wear will depend on what adhesives you use, your body chemistry and how your skin responds to the adhesives, and how frequently you wish to re-apply. We stress that it is important for you to be mindful of your hair and scalp condition underneath during extended wear. Most clients achieve a 1-4 week hold with the right adhesive, washing and nurturing their own hair in between applications. If you are bald or have significant hair loss, you are likely to achieve a much longer hold.

What density should I order and why does it matter?
The density refers to how thick the hair is and what density you order is really based on personal choice. Most women achieve a natural appearance with light to medium or medium density; however, your choice will depend on your styling preferences and individual profile.

Can the hair be flat ironed or curled?
The hair is 100% human hair that can withstand household styling tools such as curling irons and flat irons. You can wash, set, and style the wig as you would your own hair. But like your natural hair, the hair can get damaged with the misuse and overuse of products.

Can I have a style or color made that is not currently shown in your gallery?
Yes, our catalog is being continually updated so not every available style is represented on the site. We offer customization at reasonable prices. Please send us your photos and detailed information on how you would like your wig made and we will provide you with a quote.

Can I dye the hair?
The technical answer is yes, but we do not recommend any further processing of the hair if it has already been dyed and processed. Further, only experienced colorists should attempt to color the hair. Remember that though the hair is 100% human hair, it is just as prone to damage from excessive processing as your own hair. We cannot and will not be responsible for the results.

Can I wear my lace wig in a high ponytail?
Yes, you can wear your wig in a high ponytail once you apply around your full perimeter with adhesives. You will need a cap construction that is made with lace around the perimeter.

Can I part my lace wig and where can lace wigs be parted?
Our lace wigs can be parted anywhere on the cap. If you are covering your hair, the trick is to have your parts look natural by either wearing a stocking or wig cap that is close to your skin’s color. Some clients can even get a natural looking part without wearing a wig cap. Even better than using a wig cap, you can order a silk base wig where the knots are completely hidden with the silk mimicking a natural scalp.
