The Best Kinky Straight Wig

Wigs are an excellent way to cover your natural hair and give it a break from excessive styling products and heat, and they are also perfect for when you don’t feel like doing your hair to go out. Women also wear wigs when they can’t make it to the salon or want to explore other hairstyles without messing up their own hair.

Like natural hair, wig styles evolve with the times. The kinky straight look is huge right now, both in terms of trending and fullness.

When wig shopping, there are specific terms to keep in mind. Virgin wig hair is human hair that has never been colored, permed, dyed or chemically processed. Without that kind of damage, this hair is generally the strongest.

You can find virgin hair wigs that have had their texture altered to create a kinky straight look, but this is done through a steaming process. Remy hair is also 100% human hair and is thought to be the highest quality because the hair cuticles are still intact; this makes it look gleaming.

Know that there is Remy hair that is also virgin hair, and Remy hair that uses non-virgin hair that has been treated. Yaki hair can be synthetic, virgin or Remy; yaki is the texture of the hair, not the grade. It is given a micro-kink through steaming.

This wildly popular trend is seen everywhere and can be straight, silky, kinky or a combination. Virgin Brazilian hair works very well with hair weaves, is easy to care for, and feels very soft.

You can find kinky straight wigs in different lengths. Some come with headbands so that they can slip right on, and you can let some of your own hair show beneath them. U-part wigs have openings on the tops that you can adjust. You can weave in your hair and blend it in for a complete, natural look. Some of these wigs have caps, clips and combs to attach them to your hair.

• Human hair wigs can be chemically treated, cut and styled as you would your own hair.
• If you don’t like how a color or cut turns out, though, you may have to buy a new wig.
• Kinky straight wigs can get tangled, but do not brush them; use a wide-toothed comb instead.
• Never take a shower or swim with your wig on, and don’t submerge it in water.
• Wash your wig after wearing it six to eight times. Rinse it under cool water, and use small amounts of shampoo and conditioner. After rinsing it again with water, let it dry on a wig stand.
