Everyday wig wear can be a challenge at the best of times, with the best quality wig, a reliable adhesive and a comfortable wig cap liner needed to ensure a great look and feel that can be enjoyed on a daily basis. Come the summer months however, even the best wig, adhesive and liner will be put to the test.
Those soaring temperatures can after all leave things a little hot, sticky and uncomfortable. While opting for a short wig style, a lighter weight synthetic wig (instead of a heavier human hair wig), and using accessories that sweep the hair away from the face for a cooling effect all help. Going without can provide some much-needed respite as Breastcancer.org explains:
“If you find that your wig can get hot and uncomfortable during the summer months, you’re not alone. Wig discomfort in warm weather is a common complaint among wig wearers. If keeping your hair loss private isn’t as important to you during the summer, you can always opt for a cooler alternative to a wig — like a hat or a lightweight scarf — on hot days when you might be outside for long periods of time.”
Whether you regularly go wig-free or it’s your first time rocking an alternative, the following headwear options will serve you well and keep you stylish throughout the summer months and beyond.
Contrary to popular belief, hats are great options for summer, providing the cooling coverage you need to feel fresh and look even better. Our hat collection features a range of different styles in varying colours meaning you’re certain to find a look that you love.
Many of our hat designs are also made using bamboo, a material that will change your life during the summer months.
Our Ravello Hat and Milan Hat are crafted from 95% bamboo. Alongside the sustainable benefits of bamboo, wearers can enjoy a super soft, antibacterial, antifungal, hypoallergenic, temperature regulating and highly breathable design. Bamboo is also naturally moisture-wicking – in fact, it’s three times more absorbent than cotton and a pro at keeping perspiration at bay.
Our wraps and turbans also make stylish accessories for summer. Available in several eye-catchingly colourful designs, our beautiful wraps and turbans deliver elegant outcomes for those looking to go wig-free during the warmer months.
Our wraps and turbans are manufactured using the highest quality, natural materials, with bamboo and cotton providing the perfect fabric choices for this skin-friendly, breathable and truly luxurious accessory.
For easy to wear headwear that requires no tying at all, our soft, silky and stretchy bandanas are your ideal match. Available in a selection of vibrant, summer inspired prints, our Mia Bandanas are comfortable, cool, and fit like a glove.
It’s not just during the day when our headwear options come in handy. Our sleep caps unlock several advantages for wig wearers. By wearing one of our sleep caps, you can keep your natural hair free from knots and tangles, promote new hair growth, and prevent the dryness, dullness and breakages that are particularly damaging to thinning hair.
Wearing a sleep cap has also been linked to better skin health, with the transfer of oils and dirt from your hair to the skin prevented.
