Medical wigs are specially designed for those who are suffering from hair loss due to an illness and/or treatments including chemotherapy, radiation, alopecia or other female pattern baldness. However, they can also be worn by anyone who is in demand of the ultimate “in” comfort and realism.

There are a number of wig cap constructions found in the different designs of medical wigs, among which the Monofilament Wigs are considered to be the best choice. The caps are lightweight and soft which therefore avoid irritation. They are also secured firmly onto your head making them look perfectly natural.

Monofilament wigs are also light in weight and well ventilated giving you the illusion of real hair growth on the top making you not only feel great but also look great too.

The Differences between French Lace and Swiss Lace

uniwigs

For now, there are numerous different kinds of lace material to make the base of the wig. The most popular is French and Swiss laces. We are here to see the differences between the two.

Starting with the French Lace, this lace is thicker than the Swiss lace and therefore a little more durable. It’s best choice is among the new lace wig wearers. The French lace lasts much longer than the Swiss lace and is virtually tear resistant during the application process, which is important when using strong glues and bonds.

The Swiss lace is slightly thinner and a little less detectable, however it is not as durable as the French lace and rips occur more often in comparison. If the lace does rip or tear then this will make your lace wig system unusable. The Swiss lace is the most undetectable of the laces, but also the most fragile. The Swiss Lace is thin, delicate and natural looking. The Swiss lace cap choice is best for experienced lace wig users that don’t care about the longevity of the wig and not recommended for first time users.

Overall, both French and Swiss lace look extremely natural as the lace seems to disappear into your scalp when applied with our special surgical bonds and lace tape. Your lace wigs will come with extra lace extending from the hairline, which you can trim off to custom fit your hairline. Then bond can then be attached with your choice of adhesive. You can make your choice according to the different kinds of needs. We here believe that both are good in order to make the lace wig base.
