2024 Guide to Human Hair Wigs with Bangs

Print/Save as PDF

For as cute and flirty as they are, bangs have unfairly been dubbed as the first sign of an existential crisis—or a trendy haircut gone horribly wrong. If you've ever been on the losing end of some kitchen scissors and a YouTube tutorial, you know that there's nothing quite as tragic as a bad set of bangs.

 

That's why wigs with bangs are such a lifesaver. They take out all the guesswork (and risk) of getting a fringe, letting you experiment with the style without having to commit to a permanent change. If you're ready to jump on the bang wagon (pun very much intended), here's everything you need to know about rocking a temporary version of this timeless hairstyle.

What Makes a great wig with bangs?

Jenn-half-up-half-down

Sure, you could Google "wigs with bangs" and find yourself flooded with a colorful array of head-turning options. But virtual wig shopping requires a bit of detective work as not all pieces are made the same.

 

First, you'll want to rule out synthetic styles. While affordable and definitely a step up from those drugstore wigs of yore, they're nowhere near as realistic or comfortable as human hair wigs with bangs. Synthetic wigs are made of plastic fibers that have been designed to mimic human hair. But because they're not actual strands of hair, they don't move and behave the same way as human hair wigs do. Plus, human hair is a thousand times easier to style (hello heat tools), color, and cut—which is vital if you're itching for some face-framing bangs. 

 

Next on the checklist? Make sure the hair is hand-tied to a lace front cap. Even if a wig is made of 100% human hair, it won't look as natural or feel as comfortable if it's machine-wefted onto a cap. Hand-tied wigs are individually knotted by expert craftspeople, which results in a piece that's far more delicate (and realistic). Adding that level of naturalism to a lace front cap that already simulates the look of a real hairline is key to nailing that undetectable wigwear vibe.

There is no singular blueprint for bangs—you can tailor them to your specific face shape and personal style. Maybe you're an old soul at heart who's drawn towards the vintage look of curtain bangs. Or maybe you're more of a modern maven who's all about the blunt bob with micro bangs. You can arch your bangs into an edgy, angular style, or chop them up into a playful pixie cut.

 

If you're certain you want to jump on the bang train, be sure to seek advice from a professional stylist who is experienced in working with expensive pieces like our Follea human hair wigs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ashley-with-bangs-in-gripper-wig

What Does a Wig With Bangs Mean?

A wig with bangs is a wig that has been specifically cut to feature some type of bangs. You can style both synthetic and human hair wigs with bangs in a number of different ways, but human hair wigs are definitely known to hold styles better. Plus, you can use heat-tools on them without running the risk of damaging the hair—and we all know how crucial a blow dryer is to keeping bangs looking their best.

Do Wigs Look Better With Bangs?

Whether or not wigs look better with bangs is subjective. Some women feel like bangs are the best way to add some style and personality to their wig, while others find them to be high-maintenance and prefer a more classic look. Ultimately, it comes down to what you like. But we will say that wigs constructed with high-quality human hair and caps tend to rock bangs a little better than their synthetic counterparts.

Do Wigs With Bangs Look More Realistic?

Bangs don't necessarily make or break the realism of a wig. You know what does? The kind of hair that's used. Synthetic strands have a plastic-y sheen to them that'll make you look like you just left the costume shop rather than the salon.  On the other hand, human hair wigs that are hand-tied to lace fronts give off a much more natural appearance. If you're going for realism, definitely go the human hair route.

Can You Add Bangs to a Synthetic Wig?

You sure can—but be warned: it might not be easy. Since synthetic wigs are typically made with cheaper, lower-quality materials, they don't always take kindly to being cut or styled. If you're set on adding bangs to your synthetic wig, go slow and make sure to use some seriously sharp scissors. We also recommend taking it to a professional stylist if you can.

Can You Add Bangs to a Lace Front Wig?

Yes you can! And human hair lace front wigs are actually the best kind of wig to add bangs to, since they're already so realistic-looking thanks to the lace material. If you're not comfortable cutting your wig yourself, we recommend taking it to a stylist who can do it for you.

Can My Hairdresser Cut My Wig?

Most hair stylists are more than happy to cut bangs into your wig—but not all of them have experience working with wigs, so it's always best to call ahead and ask. If you're not comfortable entrusting your wig to just any old stylist, we recommend taking it to a wig salon where they have experience working specifically with wigs. You want to treat your wig with the best care possible, so it pays to go to someone who knows exactly what they're doing.

What Makes a Wig Look the Most Natural?

The best way to make a wig look natural is to choose one that's made with the highest-quality materials and construction possible. Per our industry standards, human hair wigs that are hand-tied to a lace front cap are the best of the best—and will definitely give you the most natural look.
