But making some wigs look like your natural hair can be difficult. However, with a little time and effort, you can make your Straight hair wigs look more natural.

If you're wearing a wig as a protective style daily, you want it to look as natural as possible. Whether you're replicating a synthetic wig, purchasing a human unit, or sewing one together from scratch, there are some steps you can take to make your fake hair look as real as possible.

We've put together some useful tips in this post to help you learn how to make wigs look natural, including how to make a synthetic wig look real.

1: Line up your wig

When considering how to wear a wig and make it look natural, make sure the wig is properly positioned on your head by lining it up with your natural hairline. It may take a little longer to apply, but it's worth it to achieve the most natural-looking look possible. You can either place your wig on your forehead just above your brows, or secure it in your preferred manner, and then you're ready to go.

2: Lace fronts and Monofilament tops

Lace front wigs give the appearance of a natural hairline as if your wig hair is growing right out of your head. Monofilament tops function similarly, but for the wig's part. Rather than being machine applied, each hair of a monofilament top wig is individually sewn into the wig. This allows the wig hair to move freely and allows you to part the wig wherever you like.

3: Pluck it up

Plucking the hair is one of the most important things you can do to customize your lace front wig. You should pluck your wig in front of a mirror so you can try it on as you go. To pluck your wig, use tweezers to pluck hair strands away from the face and back towards the rest of the hair, rather than pulling to the sides. 

4: Blend it properly

You can also use your existing powder and concealer to lightly brush along the hairline and part. Then, using a makeup brush or your fingers, gently blot or dab the concealer into the lace to achieve a more natural-looking hairline. This will blend the lace with the color of your skin, giving it a natural appearance and hiding any sharp edges.

There are a variety of natural-looking Virgin bundles wigs, making it hard to choose your favorite. But you need to find one that looks perfect on you.
