- HOW TO CHOOSE THE DENSITY?
The thickness or thinness of hair on a wig is what is known as wig density. In other words, wig density is defined as a percentage that tell you how much hair is actually on the wig, determining how thin or thick it will look when you put the wig on. The higher the density percentage, the fuller it will look while the lower the density percentage, the thinner it will look. It depends on your own preference.
Proper density Based on Hair Length
It’s fundamental to consider the hair density based on your hair length. Below are some of the hair lengths alongside their appropriate masses.
- For a 12 to a 16-inch-long wig, a density of 130% to 150% is the proper density.
- 18 to 22 inches 150% to 180% density is ideal.
- 24 to 30 inches 180% to 250% density is recommended.
