More and more women and girls try to wear wigs and wearing wigs has become increasingly popular. There are a variety of reasons behind this phenomenon, from embracing the latest fashion trends to hiding hair loss. However, a common concern among wig wearers is whether wigs can cause hair loss. Wearing a wig itself doesn't cause hair loss, but there are still some reasons that can cause hair loss.

Too tight wigs

Wearing a too-tight wig may create friction, especially around your hairline. Over time, this friction manifests a type of hair loss known as "traction alopecia." This condition occurs when tension from hairstyles or accessories pulls on the hair follicles. The more tight the wig you wear, the more likely you are to experience this phenomenon. It may cause stress on the edges of your hair, which can result in traction alopecia if not addressed on time. When you choose wigs you’d better go for 3D dome cap wigs like wear and go wigs, m cap wigs, or drawstring human hair half wigs.

Methods you prepare your natural hair

The methods you prepare your natural hair underneath the wig might cause traction alopecia. It is a type of hair loss that is caused by applying too much pressure or constant pulling on the hair follicles. This can occur from tight hairstyles like braids or cornrows.

Improper Cleaning

As we all know, if you don’t clean a wig for a long time, it can accumulate oil, dust, and bacteria. If you wear it on your head, the dirty wig cap comes into direct contact with your scalp, they may clog your hair follicles and cause irritation or even allergies. Human hair wigs should be cleaned every 7-10 uses, if you apply heavy styling products, you can clean it more frequently. The proper cleaning includes wig cleaning and natural hair cleaning. Make sure the scalp and the natural hair are clean before wearing.
