Why Choose Wigs?

A wig lets you try a new length, color or texture without cutting, coloring or chemically treating your own hair. They're popular for everyday wear, protective styling, special occasions and cosplay, and they can be a comforting option for people experiencing hair loss.

Instant new look

Switch from a sleek bob to long curls in minutes.

Protective styling

A wig gives your natural hair a rest from heat and daily styling.

Confidence and comfort

A well-fitted wig can help you feel like yourself during hair loss or thinning.

Synthetic vs Human Hair Wigs

The American Cancer Society explains that synthetic styles are made from artificial fibers such as polyester or acrylic and are less expensive and lower maintenance than human hair. Human hair units cost more, and when well cared for they often last longer.

Feature Synthetic Human hair
Price Lower Higher
Styling Holds its style after washing Can be restyled like your own hair
Heat Only if labelled heat resistant Can usually be heat-styled
Care Low maintenance Needs more care
Lifespan Shorter Often longer with good care

Check each listing

Read listings carefully for fiber content so you know whether a piece is synthetic, human hair or a blend.

Lace front units

A sheer lace panel along the hairline creates a natural-looking parting and hairline. 13x4 and 4x4 sizes describe the lace area in inches.

Glueless and headband styles

Adjustable straps, combs or headbands hold the wig in place without adhesive.

Curly and wavy styles

Body wave, deep wave and water wave textures add volume and movement.

Straight styles and bobs

Sleek straight styles and short bobs look polished and are easy to manage.

Styles with bangs

Built-in bangs frame the face and help hide the hairline.

Braided styles

Pre-braided styles save hours in the salon chair.

Hair Pieces and Extensions

Clip-in extensions

Add length and volume to your own hair in minutes.

Ponytails and buns

Wrap-around and clip-on ponytails create a full, sleek look.

Hair toppers

Toppers add coverage at the crown and part line.

Clip-in bangs

Try a fringe without cutting your hair.

How to Measure for a Wig

  1. Measure around your head from your front hairline, above the ears, to the nape of your neck.
  2. Measure from your front hairline over the top of your head to the nape.
  3. Compare with each listing's cap size chart. Many caps have adjustable straps.

Wearing and Caring for Your Wig

  • Wear a wig cap to keep your hair flat and the wig secure.
  • Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb, starting at the ends.
  • Wash gently with products made for wigs, following the fiber type and instructions.
  • Avoid heat on synthetic fibers unless they're labelled heat resistant.
  • Store each piece on a stand or in its box, away from sunlight and heat.

Wigs FAQs

Should I choose a synthetic or human hair wig?

Synthetic styles cost less and need less maintenance, while human hair can be heat-styled and often lasts longer with good care, according to the American Cancer Society. Choose based on your budget, how you like to style and how often you'll wear it.

Can I use heat on a synthetic wig?

Only if it's labelled heat resistant or heat friendly, and even then use a low setting. Regular synthetic fibers can frizz, melt or lose their curl pattern with a hair dryer, curling iron or flat iron.

What is a lace front wig?

A lace front has a sheer lace panel along the front hairline, with hair hand-tied into the lace. This creates a natural-looking hairline and lets you part the hair and style it away from the face.

How do I measure my head for a wig?

Use a soft tape measure around your head along the front hairline, above the ears and around the nape, then measure from the front hairline to the nape. Compare both numbers with the cap size chart, as many caps also have adjustable straps.

What is a glueless wig?

A glueless style stays in place with adjustable straps, combs or an elastic band instead of adhesive or tape. It's quicker to put on and take off, and kinder to your edges and skin.

How do I wash a wig?

Detangle first, then wash gently in cool water with shampoo made for wigs, without rubbing or twisting. Rinse, apply conditioner if the fiber allows, blot with a towel and let it air dry on a stand.

How long does a wig last?

It depends on the fiber, how often you wear it and how carefully you wash and store it. Human hair often lasts longer than synthetic fiber, especially with gentle detangling and regular conditioning.

Can I sleep in my wig?

It's best to take it off before bed, as friction against the pillow causes tangles and wear. If you must, wear a satin scarf or bonnet and use a satin pillowcase to reduce damage.

Do wigs work for hair loss?

Many people with thinning hair or hair loss find a wig or topper comfortable and confidence-boosting. Choose a soft, breathable cap, and speak to a doctor or dermatologist about the cause of any sudden hair loss.

What's the difference between a wig and a topper?

A full wig covers your whole head, while a topper is a smaller hairpiece that clips onto your own hair to add volume or coverage at the crown and part line. Toppers suit people with thinning on top who still have hair around the sides.

How long does shipping take?

Most orders arrive within 6 to 32 business days of being placed. That covers 1 to 2 business days of handling and 5 to 30 business days in transit. Standard shipping is free on every order, and we currently ship to US addresses only.

Can I return a wig?

Unused items can be returned within 30 days of delivery in their original packaging. Worn or opened hairpieces may not be returnable for hygiene reasons. Email support@globalswanky.com with your order number to start a return, and there's no restocking fee.

Find the Right Wigs

Choosing wigs comes down to three checks: synthetic or human hair, a style and cap that fit you, and care you're happy to keep up. A glueless lace front unit, a clip-in ponytail and a curly synthetic style give plenty of looks.
