Wearing a hat on top of a wig can be a stylish and practical solution. The key is ensuring both comfort and security.
Here's how to successfully wear a hat with a wig:
-
Choose the Right Wig: Select a wig that fits snugly and securely on your head. This will prevent it from shifting or slipping when you add a hat.
-
Consider Wig Cap: Using a wig cap underneath your wig can provide an extra layer of security and comfort, and help keep your natural hair in place.
-
Select the Hat: Consider the hat style. A looser-fitting hat (like a beanie or fedora) is generally more comfortable than a tight-fitting one. Make sure the hat isn't too small, as this can cause discomfort and potentially displace the wig.
-
Secure the Wig (If Needed): Depending on the wig and hat, you might want to use wig tape or wig clips to further secure the wig to your head, particularly if it's windy or if you'll be active.
-
Position the Wig: Ensure the wig hairline is positioned correctly on your forehead before placing the hat.
-
Put on the Hat: Gently place the hat on your head over the wig. Adjust the hat until it feels comfortable and secure. Avoid pulling or tugging, which can dislodge the wig.
-
Check the Mirror: Make sure the hat and wig look balanced and natural. Adjust the wig's hair around the hat as needed.
-
Consider Hat Hair: Hats can sometimes flatten the hair around the crown. After removing the hat, gently fluff up the wig's hair to restore volume.
In summary, the key to successfully wearing a hat with a wig is choosing the right wig and hat, securing the wig if necessary, and carefully positioning both for comfort and style.
