The True Cost of Beauty: Why Are Human Hair Wigs More Expensive?

The True Cost of Beauty: Why Are Human Hair Wigs More Expensive?

Most of us know that when buying wigs, synthetic wigs are the most affordable option. The prices of synthetic wigs and human hair wigs range from $50 to $2,200. The simple answer is that all wigs are made differently.

There are many reasons why synthetic wigs are cheaper than human hair wigs. Usually, synthetic wigs come pre-cut and pre-styled, so they can't be changed much. However, they are often chosen because of their low price.

So why are human hair wigs so expensive?

1. One Reason Human Hair Wigs Are Expensive

Human hair wigs are made from real human hair, unlike synthetic wigs. Human hair cannot be produced on demand. It is a natural material that takes time to grow, so the supply is much lower than that of standard synthetic wigs.

2. The Processing Method

When dealing with high-quality human hair, wig manufacturers usually create wigs with full lace or hand-tied caps. This is a labor-intensive process that requires meticulous handcrafting. Our staff hand-tie each strand of hair onto a lace wig cap to provide the most realistic appearance. It can take up to three days to complete a hand-tied human hair wig. The hair undergoes rigorous cleaning, dyeing, and bleaching processes, and is sorted and treated to achieve the desired look. These tasks can take weeks. The time and effort involved in making a human hair wig drive up the price, but they also ensure the quality.

If the wig is custom-made, the cost will be even higher. Human hair wigs can be tailored to the wearer's color, style, and head size, ensuring a perfect fit. This level of customization adds to the overall cost.

3. The Advantages of Human Hair Wigs

The advantage of human hair is that it can be washed, conditioned, blow-dried, and straightened just like your own hair. You can even use it as a base for secondary styling, designing it into any look you need. You can wear it for several months, and it usually lasts longer than other types of wigs.

4. How Long Do Human Hair Wigs Last?

The answer: generally 2-3 years, or even longer. It’s much cheaper than going to the salon every time you want to try a new look! Wigs made from 100% human hair can transform your appearance in seconds, and few other accessories can so quickly take you from feeling ordinary to extraordinary! Their lifespan can also be extended based on how often you wear them and how well you maintain them. Unlike synthetic wigs, which can only be used for a few months, human hair wigs can last for years.

This means that despite the higher initial cost, they are actually cheaper in the long run.

5. How to Maintain and Clean Human Hair Wigs?

To maintain and extend the lifespan of your human hair wig, regular cleaning and care are essential.

Tools you'll need to clean your wig:

  • Wide-tooth comb
  • Gentle shampoo and conditioner
  • Towel
  • Wig stand

In simple terms, human hair wigs require care and cleaning just like natural hair, with the added step of air drying. Regular cleaning and conditioning are crucial for keeping your wig fresh and extending its lifespan.

Care and Storage Tips:

  • Clean your human hair wig after every 8-10 wears, or as needed.
  • Avoid combing the wig when it is wet to prevent tangling.
  • After washing, store the wig on a wig stand and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight.

In comparison, synthetic wigs may lose their luster and texture over time, especially after multiple washes.

If you plan to wear a wig daily, consider purchasing a human hair wig as they last longer and look more natural. Human hair wigs also offer more styling versatility, allowing you to achieve various looks with one wig instead of purchasing multiple wigs. You can also dye human hair wigs, so if you want to change your style, a human hair wig is an excellent option.
