Caps
Wigs are available with several
different types of caps. The hair of the wig is attached to the
cap using several different techniques. Each cap type has its own
advantages. Read on for information on the different types.
Capless
A capless style cap uses a Honey Comb construction. This unique design has several benefits including: better ventilation (more cool air can reach your scalp), better simulates natural hair growth, more comfortable and secure fit; and you can integrate your own hair (pull your own hair through the holes mixing your own natural hair with the wig).
Hand Tied
Hand Tied caps are made by carefully stitching each hair strand to the cap by hand. This meticulous design produces a lighter wig with better ventilation than a standard weft. Wigs with this type of cap can be parted and combed more naturally than with most other cap types.
Lace Front
Monofilament
A monofilament cap is designed to make the wig look as if it is growing from your own head. This design makes it especially good for individuals with little or no hair on the crown of their head.
Skin
A Skin Top cap is designed with a colored base to give the illusion of your own scalp directly under the wig. This is especially useful with hair styles which expose the scalp such as parts.
Standard Weft
A Standard Weft is the basic cap style for wigs. It involves hair stitched into a string mesh. A Standard Weft is generally the simplest cap type and therefore the least expensive.
