5 Expert Tips on Wig Parts

The best wig part for you will depend on your face shape. For example, a center part is a good choice for people with oval or round faces. A side part is a good choice for people with square or heart-shaped faces.
- Make sure the wig part looks natural. The wig part should look like it is your own hair. To achieve this, the part should be slightly irregular and the hair should be textured.
- Secure the wig part with a wig cap. A wig cap will help to keep the wig in place and prevent it from slipping. The wig cap should be made of a thin, breathable material.
