Using a wig or hair piece is a great way to get a natural-looking solution to hair loss. They also come in different styles, colors and lengths. This allows you to try out tons of different new hair styles before making an investment in a high quality wig or making permanent changes to your natural hair. Wigs can get a bad rap because they are considered too expensive, fake looking, or uncomfortable. But a lot of the rumors about wigs aren’t true… at least for professionally designed and styled wigs. Here’s 8 Wig Misconceptions about wigs and hair pieces.
One of the big wig misconceptions is that they are itchy because they do not breath, and they are heavy on the head. Nowadays, wigs are made so differently then previously. The material used is highly breathable, This makes them much cooler and easier to wear for a whole day.
Monofilament materials are used to make the high quality wigs and hairpieces. These materials not only have a very natural look to them, but they are also designed for comfort. With monofilament wigs, hair is individually stitched into the elastic-type material. It is constructed into thin strips so it stays very cool and comfortable. If there is sensitivity on your scalp, then perhaps wearing a wig cap under the wig might be useful. Always consider the quality of the wig. Of course the higher quality, then the more comfortable it should be.
One fear that many people who wear wigs have is the fear they will fall off, or become lop-sided. There are several different accessories that you can buy to make sure these things do not happen. Wig clips and wig tapes can help achieve this security. Of course, it is always helpful to ask an expert about what might be the best thing to use.
Wearing a wig and covering your natural hair will not hinder it from growing. Whether you have long or short hair, a properly applied wig will not damage your natural hair.
There are times when people might wear a wig due to medical treatments that cause them to lose their hair. Chemotherapy is one of those treatments that can do this. Many women wear wigs or head scarfs while their going through this, and during the time the hair is growing out. Some people believe that this will inhibit the growth of the hair. This is a myth. Therefore it is perfectly safe for future hair growth to wear a wig or hair piece during this time to not only protect the scalp from the elements, but also, enable you to recover with confidence!
Past wigs and hairpieces have always had a fake look about them. It is normal for people to fear that nowadays they also look fake. They have been conditioned through past experience to feel that way. Now they are made so much better then previously, that wearers can wear them with confidence and feel they are flattering, rather then a dead giveaway as to what they actually are.
Remy hair is designed with the natural alignment with hair cuticles on the scalp and are the most realistic of all wigs.
Wigs with a Lace Front give a very natural looking hairline. Also, those made with a monofilament top allow for the parting of the hair to look like the natural scalp due to the way they are constructed.
Many people feel that wigs are hard to take care of, this is one of the big Wig Misconceptions. They are just as easy, and possibly easier, then looking after your own hair. Different products and processes are needed then with real hair, but it is easy and wigs and hair pieces should contain appropriate instructions on how to care for them when you buy the product. If they do not, just make sure to ask. Remember, you can always take your wig to us for professional wig refurbishing services.
With the correct fitting, wigs can be quite easy to put on. Thus, this becomes one of the Wig Misconceptions. Many people have concerns that they are difficult to put on the head correctly. After they have been worn once, then there may be a need for some adjustments. However, after this has been done, they should easily slip on with little trouble.
The idea that wigs are not versatile is completely false. They come in numerous styles, so it is easy to find what you are looking for. Also, they can be styled in any way you want, especially those made with human hair or synthetic materials that allow heat, such as a curling iron or heated curlers. As noted before, when they are made of monofilament caps, then the part can be changed, and with the lace front, the hairline is natural enough that the hair can be pulled back to create a different style.
Many people also feel that human hair wigs are better than synthetic wigs. With the new technology, this is no longer the case, and is another one of the Wig Misconceptions. The new materials used can be styled effectively, and many times they are pre-styled, and may require less effort then styling the human hair wigs.
Wigs and hair pieces can be a great accessory for your daily fashion needs. They can save you time in a pinch, and can also give you the opportunity of having a new look that is not permanent. Many concerns that people have about them are unfounded and no longer need to be a concern with the new technologies found in wig manufacturing.

Have you ever heard that blondes have more fun? At Strut Hair Solutions, we’re pretty sure that short blonde wigs are the secret to having more fun with your hair. We have countless styles and color options to help you get that short blonde hairstyle of your dreams.
We usually recommend shorter wigs to our first-time customers. They’re easy to maintain and even easier to wear – and easy usually translates directly to fun.
Short wigs don’t require nearly as much effort to style. You don’t have as much hair to keep out of the way while you’re affixing the wig, and you can adjust the look in a matter of minutes. Just like regular hair, short wig styles weigh less and feel cooler on a humid summer day.
Your wig needs to be washed at least once a month; wash it more often if you wear it every day. Short wigs take far less time to clean, and they dry a lot faster, too. When it comes to having fun, simplicity really is the name of the game.
Scientifically speaking, your hair gets darker as you get older. That means that if your hair is lighter, you’ll naturally look younger. And what color could possibly be lighter than platinum blonde?
Short hair also tends to give the wearer a bit of youthful charm. Tuck a stray curl behind your ear, flip your bangs out of your face, and walk with the sass that comes so naturally to young people. When you combine a cute short style with light-colored hair, that short blonde wig has suddenly taken years off your appearance.
Short hair reaches to chin length or above. You can stretch the definition to anything between your chin and your shoulders; if it’s short for you, it’s short!
We carry short blonde wigs in every style imaginable. From blunts to bobs to pixie cuts, you can go as short or as long as you like. Go for a long bob that gives you styling options, or choose a cute pixie wig for that confident and professional vibe. We’ll help you find the style you’ve always wanted; you can also be a little daring and try something completely new.
There as so many shades of blonde, they’re almost impossible to count. Are you in the mood for a platinum blonde look that’s sharp like diamonds? How about a warm, strawberry-blonde head of hair that makes you feel cute and confident?
We add roots and highlights to our wigs for texture and definition. Once you’ve chosen the short blonde wig of your dreams, bring it into our salon for a styling session. We’ll add the perfect undertones to work with your complexion; when you walk out, you’ll be feeling like an absolute diva.
If you’ve ever had short hair before, you know how delightfully fluffy it can be. Carefully cut layers will give your short wig a super-fun bounce that follows you everywhere. Fluff it, ruffle it, and run your fingers through it for that don’t-care style you’ve been dreaming of. Fluffy short hair: you have to try it to understand.
Strut Hair Solutions works with a variety of wig stores and providers to source the best wigs on the market. You can choose from synthetic, processed, or unprocessed hair. We recommend an unprocessed Remy wig for soft, touchable, and natural-feeling hair that you can fluff and style as much as you like.
Nothing says summer quite like that bleached-blonde beach look. Feel the breeze on the back of your neck while you strut down the boardwalk eating a Popsicle. Let everyone think that those shiny blonde highlights came from spending too much time in the sun.
Summer is all about letting loose and having a little fun. Even if it’s not summer anymore, you can take that energy with you when you wear a short blonde wig. We recommend lace front wigs to help beat the summer heat.
Short hair comes with so many style options, and they all look amazing. Part your hair in any direction. Add a touch of product (as long as it’s the right product for your wig), or slip on a hair tie to make a fluffy ponytail. With short blonde hair, every look you come up with will be cute, bouncy, and carefree.
The best part about short hair is that since you have less hair to style, you spend less time getting ready to go. Put that wig on and bounce out the door with an extra bit of strut in your step.

One of the biggest reasons people choose to not invest in a wig, is that it could potentially look “unrealistic” or “unnatural.” This is true at times; however, with the right practices you can make any wig look completely natural. Rather than being questioned if your hair is real, you’ll be receiving compliments on your gorgeous hair style in no time with a realistic looking wig!
Size Correctly
If your wig is not sized properly, it can look both distasteful, and unrealistic. One of the key practices of maintaining realistic looking wigs is choosing the correct size. Take a look at this basic sizing chart for reference:
| Circumference | Wig Size |
| 20.75 inches | Petite |
| 21.25 inches | Small |
| 22 inches | Average |
| 22.5 inches | Average to Large |
| 23 inches | Large |
| 24 inches | Extra Large |
A basic tape measure can be used to accurately measure your head circumference. Measure to and from the front of your hairline, making sure the tape is flat and level. If you are between sizes, it is recommended that you purchase the larger wig and try it out. Most wig stores allow returns for resizing!
Rooted Colors
Natural hair is rarely one mere color. The only exception is extremely dark hair. It is a common thing for people to have shaded and gradient streaks in their hair. These gradients are referred to as “dimension” by hair specialists. Wigs lacking dimension can look fake on occasion, as they don’t have natural color differentiations. This is where rooted colors come in. Rooted colors blend a few colors together in order to create a natural-looking gradient. Nowadays in the modern wig industry, most wigs have rooted color options.
Lace Fronts and Monofilament Tops
Lace front wigs specialize in making it appear as if your hairline is 100% natural. It creates an illusion that your hair is growing straight out of your scalp. Monofilament tops are not machine-binded. Hairs are individually sewn to the wig in order to give your wig more natural freedom. Wig hair moves more freely, and parts much easier as well. We suggest messing up the part a bit to make your wig look more realistic. Try tweezing and cutting a few hair strands to create a sense of imperfection. Removing density in wigs helps to create a more natural look. Don’t pluck towards the sides; use your tweezers to pluck strands away from the face in the direction of wig hairs. Be careful you are not plucking the lace, as it can potentially rip.
Blend
If you are fortunate enough that not all of your hair has fallen out, consider blending your natural hairline with the lace front wig line. It is tough for wigs to compete with natural hair in terms of realistic-looking hairlines, so blending could improve your look drastically. Flip your wig inside out and bleach the knots for the sake of blending. A 20-volume bleach left on for 20 minutes should be adequate. After 20 minutes, shampoo your wig—you’re good to go!
Braiding
Full braids are not always necessary, but they can help create a more realistic looking wig. Compare different braid parting directions in the mirror and choose which looks best. Make sure the braids are not flat, as this can make your wig look unnatural.
Strut Hair Solutions Can Help You Choose a Realistic Looking Wig
As you search for your wig of preference, we recommend that you stick to a style you are comfortable with for your first investment. The wig to buy is a style that compliments the shape of your face and fits your lifestyle. If you are comfortable with your wig, and you try a few of the practices we’ve recommended, then it will likely look very realistic. You can search our various lengths, colors and styles for both synthetic and human hair on our wig shopping website. Strut Hair Solutions is proud to offer private one-on-one free consultations.
First and foremost, your situation is more common than you probably think. Many people—even individuals early on in their aging processes—experience hair loss. Before you start preparing for a self-confidence plummet, listen to this: STRUT Hair Solutions wants to keep you feeling fantastic. Let’s take a look at hair loss problems, how they occur, how to prevent them, and how STRUT can help.
Is it Normal for Hair to Fall Out?
Don’t fret—your hair loss problem is shared by many others. In fact, women lose about 100 hairs a day on average. Hair loss is especially common during the winter season, as dry scalps lose hair easier and faster. If you have been through stressful times recently, then hair loss is very typical. Is your hair thinning as well as falling out? This is merely a part of aging. The key is to recognize when your hair has surpassed the standard level of falling out. If much more than 100 hairs are leaving your scalp a day, or random bald patches are appearing quickly, then it would be wise to consult a doctor or dermatologist. In the meantime, let’s take a look at how to prevent these problems, and how to cope if they’ve already begun.
Causes and Prevention Methods
We have some bad news, and some good news. The bad news is that some people are genetically made with above-average hair loss traits. Unfortunately, this type of problem is unpreventable. The good news is that many instances of hair falling out can be avoided. For example, traction alopecia can be caused by styling hair in a tight manner at the root. A simple fix for this issue is to loosen hair and stay away from extremely tight braids. Are
In most cases, undergoing chemotherapy has the side effect of hair loss. Thankfully, chemotherapy hair loss is usually temporary. Regrowth tends to be expected between three to six months after chemotherapy treatments end.
“Trichotillomania” is the irresistible urge to pull out hair from your scalp, eyebrows, or other areas. While this does not mean hair is falling out on its own, it is still important to understand how to deal with Trichotillomania in order to reduce hair loss. Learn more about the disorder here:

With the advancement of technology, there are new, effective options available to those struggling with hair loss or thinning. Laser Hair Therapy is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the cosmetic treatment of hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp problems. Unlike many other treatments, LLLT works on all areas of the scalp and has been clinically proven to work. STRUT Hair Solution’s multi-therapeutic approach to regain hair growth involves shampoos, topical treatments, vitamins, and cold laser therapy, in order to support a healthy scalp for thicker and fuller hair.
Treatment: Have you Considered Wigs?
We wish that there was a single, universal answer to treating all hair loss problems, but that is sadly not the case. If you are seeking a treatment product that could be used to regain hair growth, make sure it is FDA approved.
It’s hard not to lose self-confidence when hair starts falling out. This effect can be reversed by picking out a wig or hair piece. STRUT Hair Solutions takes pride in helping both men and women find suitable solutions to hair loss problems. At STRUT, our experts can help you personalize your look, so you feel more confident than ever!
A mass amount of wig choices is available, differing in length, hair material, (human hair vs. synthetic) brands, color, highlights, and more. The great thing is, you can try out as many wigs as you’d like by scheduling an in-person private consultation—nothing beats physically seeing and feeling wigs when deciding between a few.
STRUT Hair Solutions Can Help
Hair loss is never a fun topic, but the great news is we have options available to you. Not sure which option is best? We are more than happy to offer a private one-on-one free consultation. We will evaluate and provide the costs, length of time involved if LLLT is chosen and or various styling options with our wigs. When hair loss starts affecting a healthy lifestyle daily, it is time to make a change. Small changes can make a positive impact in ways never imagined.
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal imbalance of the reproductive system which creates an issue with the ovaries and how the egg is developed or released each month. For women, one of the common symptoms is an increase of hair on the face or other parts of the body that men usually grow hair. Oddly enough, another symptom is thinning hair on the scalp like male pattern baldness.
Although there isn’t an exact science on why the hair growth or thinning occurs with PCOS, some think it has to do with high levels of androgens. Many people assume that androgens are “male hormones” because of the steroid hormone or testosterone. However, androgen levels are in women and men. The difference is the level of androgens a male or female produces. When a female produces more than normal levels of androgen, some of the signs of PCOS come into play. The main job of androgens in a female is to convert into estrogen whereas the androgen in males play an important role for reproduction and male traits. Androgenetic Alopecia is a common term for hair loss in men and women. The way a male or female loses their hair is a little different. The male might have receding hair line or thinning at the crown of the hear. Women will have overall thinning of the hair across the entire scalp. About 10% of people with alopecia areata may never regrow hair.
Hair loss and thinning can be extremely devastating and affects about 80 million men and women in the United States. It can affect self-esteem, social activity and overall mental health. Many times, the medical side pays little to no attention to the side effect of hair loss in women. However, it can be a big emotional distress that is legitimate and should be addressed immediately. Some people are able to overcome hair loss or thinning; however others may develop serious conditions such as depression and anxiety.
If you are feeling this way or just want to improve your overall hair image, there are options available! Options such as Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), Topical products and/or Synthetic or Human Hair Wigs.
Laser Hair Therapy is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the cosmetic treatment of hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp problems. Low level laser therapy (LLLT) has been tested for effectiveness and safety for over 30 years all around the world, and several medical devices have now been cleared by the FDA. Unlike many other treatments, LLLT works on all areas of the scalp and has been clinically proven to work.
Topical products such as shampoos, topical treatments, vitamins mixed with cold laser therapy are typically combined for a multi-therapeutic approach to support a healthy scalp for thicker, fuller hair.
For those that want a quick and easy solution, beautifully made synthetic or human hair wigs are a great option. There are two options available: synthetic hair wigs and human hair wigs. Although human hair is costlier, it looks natural, is durable, can be styled with various tools and dyed or highlighted professionally as you would your normal hair. Synthetic hair costs less and also has many advantages, such as holding style regardless of weather or wash, low maintenance and various style options. Another option could potentially be hair pieces. Hair pieces are customized to your hair, filling in thinning and/or balding areas providing a fuller look. The various types depend on the area that need focus: hair toppers, hair extensions, hair pieces and volumizers.
