How to Choose A Wig Style (Without Feeling Overwhelmed)

Choosing a wig style doesn’t have to be overwhelming. The easiest way to start is by choosing something close to what you’re used to — it helps you feel more like yourself as you adjust. Shoulder-length styles are great for beginners because they flatter most faces, tangle less, and feel lightweight.

If you prefer subtlety, look for lower density and soft, face-framing layers. If you enjoy polished or effortless looks, consider straight or gently wavy styles. The right wig shouldn’t feel dramatic or intimidating — it should feel familiar, comfortable, and easy to wear from day one.

Our Recommendation for Beginners: Choose a style that you have worn and are comfortable with. It’s a big enough change to wear a wig without looking completely different than how you are used to seeing yourself.
