Due to the hot weather, it can be challenging to wear a wig every day without overheating. Some people may choose to wear hair toppers in summer as they can be more comfortable on hot days. Hair toppers are light and breathable, so they are a popular option. However, for people with total hair loss or for those who dislike wearing a hair topper, wearing a topper instead of a wig is not possible. So, here we have put together our top tips for staying cool while wearing a wig on hot days.

So which wigs are best for summer wear?

Lace wigs are a great option! Lace wigs are made from breathable and light lace fabric. The lace has small well-spaced holes throughout the cap, allowing air to circulate through the lace wig.

Mono wigs are known for their perfect combination of security, style, and comfort. The top portion of the cap is made from a very fine, sheer material called monofilament. Mono wigs are a great choice for summer wear.

Tips for wearing wigs during summer

Tip #1 Switch to a lighter color.

Darker colors are hotter to wear than lighter colors, as darker colors soak up more light energy. So, choosing a lighter colored wig to wear in the summer can help you stay cool. Blondes and lighter shades are always popular hair colors in the summer. So, it might be the time to try a blonde shade if you've ever wondered if blondes really do have more fun.

Tip #2 Use an anti-humidity spray on your wig

By spritzing some anti-humidity spray onto your wig, not only will it help to eliminate tangles and frizz, but it will also act as a deodorant and discourage sweat from forming around the wig cap!

Tip #3 Go for Up-dos and short styles

If there's ever a time to try a gorgeous up-do style, it's summer! Wearing your wig up will keep the hair off your neck which can help you to stay cool.

Summer is also a great time to go for a short-length wig if you've been on the fence about it! A pixie cut or a bob style are great options. Less hair means less weight, so you know you'll be a lot cooler in a short wig.
