Monofilament Wigs

What Is A Monofilament Wig?

A monofilament hair wig is one of the most natural-looking wigs. Made of a sheer mesh material, the cap construction enables the scalp to show through, giving the impression of realistic hair growth.

The fine mesh is constructed of a breathable fabric, and each individual hair strand is hand-tied onto the mesh to mimic natural hair growth.

Monofilament hair wigs fall under the types of wigs that are great for women looking for a comfortable and natural appearance.

What Are The Benefits Of Wearing A Monofilament Wig?

There are several benefits to wearing a monofilament hair wig, including:

1. Natural look: Monofilament hair wigs are designed to look and feel like natural hair, making them virtually indistinguishable from your real hair. The transparent mesh of the wig cap lets your scalp show through, creating the appearance of hair growing directly from your scalp.
2. Styling Versatility: Synthetic, heat-friendly synthetic, and human hair monofilament wigs can be styled in many ways. From elegant updos to intricate braids, the monofilament crown provides numerous options, ensuring you're ready for any occasion.
3. Comfort: Mono wigs are incredibly comfortable, thanks to the soft and lightweight sheer monofilament material. The lightweight nature of these wigs means you can go about your day without feeling weighed down.
4. Breathability: The mesh material used in monofilament hair wigs allows air to circulate, preventing sweating and keeping sensitive scalps as cool as a cucumber all day long. Wave goodbye to hot, itchy feelings with these hair solutions.
5. Durability: Monofilament hair wigs are made with high-quality materials and incredible construction, making them durable and long-lasting when handled with care and maintained properly.

Can You Wear A Monofilament Wig Every Day?

Absolutely. Whether it's a long wig style or a short bob wig, monofilament hair wigs or monotop wigs are designed for everyday wear.

They're crafted with durability and comfort in mind, making them ideal for regular use, especially for women dealing with hair loss. However, just like any other wig, it's crucial to care for and maintain them properly to keep them looking their best.

Follow the manufacturer's care instructions, like washing and conditioning the wig regularly and storing it properly when not in use. By taking good care of the monofilament hair wig, the wearer will enjoy its look and feel for many wears to come.

How Do You Choose The Right Size Monofilament Wig?

Choosing the right size of monofilament hair wig is important for achieving a comfortable and natural-looking fit. It is essential to get the right measure of circumference for your head to ensure that you find the right size of the monofilament cap for a snug and comfortable fit.

Calculate the circumference of your head from the hairline on your forehead behind your ears to the nape of your neck.

At Paula Young, we have a size chart to help you determine the right wig size based on your head circumference. Checkout and compare your measurements to find the corresponding size for your monofilament top wigs and other wigs, including the hand-tied wigs.

And don't worry! Monofilament hair wigs have mono part adjustable tabs, so if your measurement is slightly off, you can use the strap to adjust and secure your wig.

How Long Does A Monofilament Wig Last?

Synthetic, heat-friendly synthetic, and human hair monofilament wigs last 3 to 6 months. Factors like how often they are worn and how well they are maintained also affect their lifespan.

Follow proper care and maintenance routines, such as regular cleaning, conditioning, and storage, to extend the life of your wigs.

How do you care for and maintain a monofilament wig to prolong its lifespan?

Here are some tips & tricks to help you maintain your pixie or long monofilament hair wigs and prolong their lifespan.

• Gentle Cleaning: To keep your monotop wigs in top-notch shape, wash them every 7-10 wears or whenever they lose their lustre. Always use wig shampoo to remove dirt and build-up, and rinse thoroughly with cool water.

  Follow up with a leave-in conditioner formulated for wigs, applying it only from mid-lengths to ends.

• Drying Routine: When it comes to drying mono wigs for women, patience is the key. After washing, gently blot your hair wig with a towel to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing or twisting as it can damage the hair fibers.
• Styling Tips: With the right tools, styling your monofilament hair wigs with bangs can be fun and simple. For synthetic hair wigs, use a wide-tooth comb or a wig brush to detangle gently without damaging the strands.

  For heat-resistant and human hair wigs, you can use heat-styling tools on a low to moderate setting. Don't forget to use a heat-protectant spray beforehand.

• Proper Storage: To maintain the shape and style of monofilament hair wigs, proper storage is essential. When not in use, keep your wig on a mannequin head or wig stand. When traveling, consider a wig case to protect your wig.

Can monofilament wigs be parted anywhere?

Yes, monofilament hair wigs can be parted anywhere. This is one of their key advantages, making them a highly versatile option for wig wearers.

The monofilament cap features a fine, breathable material onto which each hair strand is individually hand-tied. This construction creates a natural-looking scalp and allows the hair to move freely, mimicking the natural movement of real hair.

Whether you prefer a center part, side part, or no part at all, petite/average monofilament hair wigs give you the flexibility to style your hair exactly how you want.
