A lack of or limited hold can have many causes.
First, you should measure your head and check the size of your wig. If the size is incorrect, switch models.
If the size is correct, the following recommendations apply (usually a combination of several reasons):
- Check for correct fit - the hairline is usually worn too low (a hand's width above the eyebrows)
- Wig fits too tightly - If the wig rides up, it is often due to an overly tight adjustment. Many people adjust the wig tighter because it slips. However, this tightens the adjustment elastics and the wig slips even more. Contrary to initial intuition, please adjust the wig to be larger.
- Incorrect placement of the wig with existing bio hair - The wig always moves as much as the underlying surface. This means that the bio hair should be secured flat or tucked under a wig cap or a silicone band. After that, you can put on the wig correctly (see correct placement).
- Removing the wig labels helps somewhat to improve the hold.
If the combination of immediate measures is not yet sufficient, there are other ways to improve the hold.
- Wig moves at the nape - Sew silicone between the size adjustments. Also possible at the sides or on the top of the head.
- Flat back of the head - If you have a flat back of the head, the wig may have a little more room to move at the back. This usually cannot be seen, and the wig's hold is also secure. If it still bothers you, darts in the wig can help.
There can be many reasons why a wig doesn't fit properly. Often, the wrong size model is chosen.
To determine the correct size for your wig, first measure your head circumference. Proceed as follows:
This table provides initial guidance. For an optimal fit, it is recommended to try on different models or consider a custom-made wig.
The correct wig size is crucial for your comfort. An incorrect size can cause the wig to slip or exert uncomfortable pressure.
