You have long hair and you want to wear a wig. However, your hair has a certain volume and you fear that this could be an obstacle to wearing a hairpiece. Indeed, having a bump under your hair would have an artificial effect and everyone would see that you wear a wig. But don't worry! It is perfectly possible to wear a wig while having long hair. For maximum discretion, you'll need to flatten it enough on your head. Here's how to do it:
How to style your long hair under the wig?
If your hair is not too long, pull it back. Put on an under-cap after you have combed and flattened your hair so that it is not visible under your wig.
If your hair has a little more length, tie your hair as flat as possible with two braids glued under an under-cap. If you have a lot of volume, two braids may not be enough. To make the hair as flat as possible, you can go as far as six braids. You can also hold the hair in place by using bobby pins. With dreads, it is possible but make sure to flatten them as much as possible so that your hair takes the least volume possible.
You can also style your hair in a very low ponytail by tightening your hair without forcing it too much so that it is not uncomfortable. Then pull your ponytail over your head. Then put on an under cap and try to massage the hair under the cap evenly.
What are the benefits of wearing a wig when you have long hair?
Wearing a wig on your long hair allows you to change your haircut and color easily without using chemicals to dye it. You won't need to go to the hairdresser or use heaters that are harmful to the health of hair follicles.
If you want to get even more length, the wig can act as a protective hairstyle. You will protect your hair from daily styling and care that break it and hinder its growth.
