• Synthetic + Human Hair– Wigs are made by a mixture of real human hair and synthetic or artificial hair in predetermined ratios. Usually 50:50 or as per choice of maker.

Whatever may be the source of hair, eventually the hair is knotted on a particular fabric base. The wig base can be of lace, monofilament or silicon.

Silicon Base– This single or double layer fabric with hexagonal or large pores, usually of cream or light brown color. It gives additional smoothness for comfort.

It depends on multiple things such as the quality of the hair used, type of base material, amount of customization, durability of hair systems etc. For example, you may not know, but even within Human Hair, there are plenty of different varieties from very cheap (eg Parlor Hair) to very expensive (Remy Temple Hair). There are some suppliers who mix animal fibers or synthetic fibres in the systems which again reduce the cost of hair replacement systems significantly. Apart from this, what clients fail to understand is that there are almost hundreds of different base materials to choose from which vary significantly in prices. There are plenty of base materials which look very similar but are very different in quality (in terms of weight, sweat evaporation, ventilation etc).
