Headband wigs are the best thing to ever hit the hair stylist’s A-List! This headband wig trend has brought fashion to hair like bobby pins did in the 60s. If you are a dedicated follower of fashion you can now match your outfit with your headband.
You may ask what is a headband. Well, it is exactly as the name suggests, a headband. The headband wig is a wig that is attached to a headband, and it takes approximately five minutes to look in the mirror, position your wig perfectly, and Voila! Your headband wig is securely positioned and looks fabulous!
Do you remember the days when headbands were actually part of sports gear, gone are those boring tennis players that wore headbands for a reason. Now a headband is the biggest fashion statement since blue jeans!
For newbies, this changes everything, with a headband wig you don’t have to be worried about adhesives, straps, elastic bands, or cap sizes. Headband wigs are easy to put on and just as easy to take off, but don’t let this fool you! You still have to take good care of your hair. When you easily remove your wig, make sure you take proper care of your wig and store it on your foam head or wig stand. Don’t fall into the trap of casually tossing your wig onto a chair, as this will damage the hair on your wig.
