Looking for a quick protective hairstyle that blends seamlessly with your natural hair? A headband wig might be the answer.

These ready-to-wear wigs are designed for convenience, comfort and versatility, making them perfect for beginners and experienced wig wearers alike.

In this guide, we will cover how to wear a headband wig, the key benefits and how to choose the right texture so you can find the perfect fit for your style.

What Makes a Headband Wig Different?

A headband wig is a type of wig that combines a wig with a headband attached to it.

This design allows for quick and easy application, with no need for clips, glue, or other adhesives.

The wig is sewn onto a soft, stretchy headband, making it comfortable to wear and simple to put on and take off.

Step by Step: How to Wear a Headband Wig

• Prepare Your Hair: Start by braiding or slicking back your natural hair to create a flat base. This helps the wig fit more securely and look more natural.
• Put on a Wig Cap (Optional): For extra security and to protect your natural hair, you can wear a wig cap.
• Adjust the Headband Wig: Position the headband wig on your head, ensuring the headband sits comfortably around your forehead.
• Secure the Wig: Use the attached combs and adjustable straps inside the wig to secure it in place. The velcro on the headband ensures a snug fit by fastening it at the back.
• Style as Desired: Style the headband wig according to your preference. You can wear it down, pull it into a ponytail, or create a high bun.

The Benefits of Wearing a Headband Wig
