How to Build a Wig Collection: The Smart Starter Guide for Black Women
One wig is a style. A collection is a lifestyle. Building a wig collection strategically means maximum versatility and value instead of five wigs that are all basically the same.
Start with One Everyday Human Hair Wig
Your foundation wig should be a human hair lace front or headband wig in your natural color at 16 to 22 inches. Our most popular everyday wigs are the Straight Human Hair Lace Front Wig, the Body Wave Human Hair Lace Front Wig, and the Kinky Curly Human Hair Headband Wig.
Add One Statement Color
Your second wig should be a color your natural hair is not. Top picks: 613 Platinum Blonde Body Wave for maximum drama, Burgundy Water Wave for fall and winter, or the Chocolate Brown Deep Wave for warm sophistication.
Add One Protective Style
Your third wig should be a braided or loc protective style. Our Knotless Box Braids Wig, Butterfly Locs Wig, and Boho Goddess Braids Wig are our top protective style picks.
