Use your natural hairline as a guide to position the wig. Pin back sections and work from the bottom up when curling or straightening. Remember, less is more – overstyling can lead to wear and tear. Final Touches: Accessorize Wisely Adorn your wig with accessories just as you would with natural hair.

You can braid it, put it up in a ponytail, create a classy updo, or even wear it down. Although a wig gives you the freedom to style it anyway you please, the actual styling process is a little different than styling your natural hair. Don’t worry though, you can easily create beautiful styles with a few tricks and products designed for wigs.

Luckily, there are plenty of things you can do to change up the look of a synthetic wig: you can cut it, curl it, or straighten it and use makeup to blend it seamlessly into your look so that no one knows you are wearing a wig at all. Or, you can create dramatic updos or cosplay looks in bright colors and gravity-defying styles.
