Whether you wish to make your transition to wig wearing as discreet as possible or simply want to recreate your natural look, finding the perfect colour match is the key. One easy way to colour match a wig to your hair is by dyeing it.
Dyeing your wig is also a fantastic option if you want to reinvent your look. But beware, not all wigs are suitable for colouring. In this blog post, we offer our advice on dyeing your wig for full-colour coverage without damage.
One of the benefits of choosing a human hair wig is that it can be styled and washed just like your natural hair, and the same goes when applying hair dye. It is however another story entirely if you own a synthetic wig.
Whilst synthetic wigs can in theory be dyed temporarily, with waxes or fabric dyes used to deposit colour rather than permanently dye the strands, the process is not recommended.
As well as producing varied results, it can change the nature and condition of the synthetic fibres that make up the wig. Dyeing a synthetic wig is highly likely to cause irreversible damage, a noticeable change in its look and condition, and a reduced lifespan.
Selected pigments and bleach just don’t work on synthetic hair either. But don’t worry, you don’t have to stick with just one colour if you’re a synthetic wig wearer. The joy of choosing synthetic hair over human hair is that they’re affordable enough to own not just one wig but a whole collection.
Our synthetic wigs are available in a wide range of non-fade colours and styles, meaning you can rock as many different shades as you like without using hair dye.
Human hair wigs have normally already been stripped for a cleaning process this means they can be more porous than regular hair. We would suggest going to a professional salon who are used to working with human hair wigs to arrange for it to be dyed professionally
