Myths about wigs - false or true, debated so that you know what to choose
You're thinking about buying a wig because it's fun and interesting, because you'd change your look instantly. But you come across some ideas that raise questions. In the following lines, we address a few myths about wigs.
!Myth 1: when you wear a wig, the difference is immediately noticeable!
False - In fact, it all depends on quality. When you wear a Belher brand wig, made from natural hair or special fiber, you wouldn't suspect it's not your own hair. However, you need to maintain it properly and attach it correctly. Otherwise, no one will know you're wearing it unless you tell them.
!Myth 2: maintenance is hard!
False - Think about the care you give to your natural hair. You should maintain your wig with the same care. Of course, when trying a product for the first time, everything is new and the care routine may take time, but once you get used to it, everything is faster and not difficult at all. What it involves:
- Wash periodically, every 14 days or even less if you wear it daily. Use special products for this purpose, which you will find in our eshop. See here.
- In the washing process, you will use moderately warm water, slightly warm, in which you dissolve the cleaning and care products, not applying them directly on the wig. Use gentle movements and rinse.
- It is recommended to dry naturally, but it is not a problem if it dries with a hairdryer.
- Use a stand so that its shape does not deteriorate.

!Myth 3: The wig makes you dependent on the stylist and the salon!
False - Here we are, in this period when the pandemic closed salons, we also have the great challenge of managing somehow. It is of course easier to go to the salon for wig maintenance. It is preferable to do this as a first experience, but later, with the necessary products, you can manage at home as well.
You can of course try other style options, style it, and at the salon you have chances that these changes will please you. At home, you can experiment with straight or slightly wavy hair. However, you need a special device and keep in mind how long the hair strand lasts - on each wig you will find instructions regarding heat resistance and the maximum temperature to style it.
!Myth 4: the wig falls off when the wind blows!
False, if you install and fix it well. There is no need to talk about sizes because at Belher you will find wigs in universal sizes. These can be adjusted and fixed according to the size you need. At the back, there are two elastic bands that you will adjust so that they are neither too loose nor too tight.
There is no risk of it falling off if you fix it well on your head. So, you shouldn't be afraid that the wind will blow and ruin your own hair. Also, it matters to secure your natural hair well at the back and not at the top of your head, so the wig does not tend to lift off your head because of the bun you made.
!Myth 5: wearing a wig affects natural hair and the scalp!
False, because hair can grow regardless of whether the scalp is more often covered or not. The wig does not stick to the scalp. For installation, only a net that covers the natural hair and keeps it under the wig is needed.
Wigs are not only for those women with serious health problems who have completely lost their hair. Wigs are not only for public figures, for shows, or the stage. They can just as well be a modern approach for a contemporary woman, open to new things, who wants to experiment with a different look.
