Your Guide to Wigs & Hairpieces

Whether you're new to wigs or a seasoned crown-wearer, this guide is here to help you look and feel your most confident. From choosing the right style to caring for your investment, Heather has you covered.

Getting Started: Finding Your Perfect Wig

Not sure where to begin? Start with these three questions: What's your lifestyle? How much styling time do you have? And what's your budget? From there, explore our collections by style, color, and brand — or reach out to Heather directly for a personalized recommendation.

Wig Types Explained

Synthetic Wigs — Affordable, low-maintenance, and ready to wear right out of the box. Great for beginners or those who want an effortless everyday look.

Human Hair Wigs — The most natural look and feel. Fully heat-styleable and long-lasting with proper care.

Heat-Friendly Synthetic — The best of both worlds. Styled with low heat tools for versatility without the human hair price tag.

How to Measure Your Head

Use a soft measuring tape and measure around your full hairline — front to nape, ear to ear. Most wigs are adjustable and fit average head sizes (21.5"–22.5"), but we carry petite and large cap options too.

Wig Care 101

  • Wash every 6–8 wears with wig-safe shampoo
  • Always air dry on a wig stand — never use a blow dryer on high heat
  • Store on a stand or in a silk bag when not in use
  • Detangle gently from ends to roots with a wide-tooth comb

Styling Tips

  • Use only wig-safe products — regular hairspray can cause buildup and damage
  • For synthetic wigs, avoid flat irons unless labeled heat-friendly
  • A little dry shampoo at the roots adds volume and refreshes between washes
