When you are trying to find the right wig, you may want to consider wigs with one or more of these features.

• Lace front: A lace front has a sheer lace base that allows for a very natural looking appearance along the parts and hairlines.
• Baby hairs: This type of wig has fine, curling hairs along the front hairline.
• 360 closures: The circular headband shape of 360 braided wigs lets you put the wig up in a ponytail or wear it down.
• Combs: Wigs with combs attached along the interior sit very securely in place.
• Washable: If you plan on wearing the wig regularly, you may want to pick one with washable fibers.

The type of hair a wig is made from will affect the look, feel, and versatility of the wig. Here are some of the key things to know about common wig material types.

• Remy hair: Remy wig hair is human hair that has been carefully arranged to ensure that all of the hair cuticles flow in the same direction. This gives a very shiny appearance.
• Yaki hair: Yaki hair is hair that has been processed to look like chemically relaxed African hair. It can be mostly straight or have a curlier texture. It can be human or synthetic.
• Virgin hair: Virgin hair is human hair that has not been chemically processed or dyed.
• Kanekalon: This is a type of synthetic fiber that can be washed and heat-styled.
• Polyester: Any texture in this synthetic fiber will not fall out when exposed to heat or moisture.

Black braid wigs come in a huge variety of styles, including:

• Cornrows: These are braids that lie flat against the scalp.
• Micro braids: These tiny braids are just a few millimeters in width.
• Twists: A twisted style results in long, rounded braids.
• Dutch Braids: Dutch braid wigs tend to have two braids that run flat against the scalp and hang down in the back.
