Alright, I know why you’re here – you finally want to understand the difference between wigs, weaves, and extensions because you’re exploring your best options. Well, let me tell you, you’re in the right place.
Not to toot our own horn, but Hello Gorgeous Naples is the perfect salon to tackle this topic because our stylists are highly specialized in all things extensions.
So, I sat them down, asked them everything there is to know, and now I’m bringing that information straight to you, my dear reader.
And if this is your first time here – hi, I’m Lili, Hello Gorgeous salon owner and your go-to hair bestie. Over the years of shadowing hair experts, I’ve learned a lot about hair, and I looove keeping up with the latest trends. This blog is where I share it all with you, and today, we have a lot to cover.
So, get comfy, and let’s dive right in!
When it comes to versatility and helping you change your look almost on the go, wigs take the crown. And funny enough, this hair enhancement covers your entire head, but that’s not the best part about them.
Wigs are so loved because they come in so many different styles, lengths, and even colors. Yeah, if you always want to have the latest trendy colors – like caramel mocha hair color or almond milk hair color – this is the way to go without damaging your natural locks.
But wait, there’s more! Wigs, as well as weaves and extensions, can be made from human hair, synthetic fibers, or a mixture of both – so you can always find the best match for you.
Now, let’s summarize the benefits and add a few more to the list:
Not a fan of switching styles? Or, shall I say, do you want to upgrade the luscious locks you already have? If that’s the case, let me tell you more about weaves.
Weaves are essentially a type of hair extension, but they’re not the same. The difference lies in their installation, and when it comes to weaves, that involves sewing or gluing them into your natural hair (which is first braided).
But what’s the difference between wigs and weaves? Aside from the fact that wigs cover the whole head while weaves are strands of added hair, the latter is semi-permanent. When you wear a wig throughout the day, you should always take it off before going to bed to ensure its longevity – something you don’t have to worry about with weaves.
Here’s a summary of benefits:
Okay, these are my favorites, so I’ll try not to be biased! Extensions, as you now know, are similar to weaves, but they can be super temporary, allowing you to switch things up however you want. But before we get into the benefits, you should know that there are different types of extensions, categorized by their application method:
Doesn’t this already tell you why I love them? You can do so much, swap them however you like, or opt for something longer-lasting. But hey, here’s a rundown of benefits to ensure you’ve got all the info you need:
Now that you know the difference between wigs, weaves, and extensions, there’s only one question left to answer – what’s your perfect match?
If you ask me, the choice is always easy – I choose extensions again and again whenever I feel like spicing up my look. It’s easy, convenient, and I know I’m in good hands at Hello Gorgeous Naples salon. Why? We’ve got stylists who have worked Fashion Weeks, and if that doesn’t speak to their competence, their work definitely will.
But hey, I understand that you might not be like me, and maybe you’re looking for a longer-lasting solution. Whatever the case may be, feel free to stop by our salon for a chat or a consultation, especially if this is your first time considering any hair-enhancing options.
