Just bought your first wig and don't know where to start? Don't panic. At Nebi Studio, we help every woman feel beautiful and confident, even if it's their very first experience with a wig.
In this article, we'll explain step by step how to put on a wig easily, without stress and without glue.
🔎 Why wear a wig?
Whether it's to change your look, protect your natural hair, or save time in the morning, wigs are now a practical, trendy, and powerful accessory. But you still need to know how to put it on properly, especially when you're just starting out!
🧰 What you need before you start
Before putting on your wig, here are the essentials to have on hand:
-
A wig cap (net or protective cap)
-
A wig brush or wide-tooth comb
-
A mirror and good lighting
-
A wig adapted to your head size (at Nebi Studio, they are all adjustable)
-
(Optional) Setting spray, a foundation brush, or eyebrow gel to blend the lace
✅ Steps to easily put on a wig
1. Prepare your hair
If you have long or voluminous hair, braid it flat or tie it down neatly. The goal: a smooth and flat base.
2. Put on the wig cap
Place the cap on your head, covering the roots of your natural hair completely. This protects your hair, prevents friction, and helps the wig stay on better.
3. Adjust the wig
Hold the wig by the back and place it starting from your forehead. Gently pull it back until it covers your entire head.
🔒 Nebi Studio Tip: All our wigs are equipped with adjustable straps and internal combs for a perfect hold, even without glue.
4. Align the lace with your hairline
Position the lace correctly at your forehead so that it best mimics your natural hairline.
5. Customize to your liking
You can leave some baby hairs visible, style it according to your preference, or blend the lace with a little powder for a natural "melted" effect.
🪄 Can you wear a wig without glue?
YES, absolutely. It's even what we recommend for beginners!
Wigs with elastic bands or adjustable straps (like those at Nebi Studio) hold very well without glue or gel.
💡 Mistakes to avoid when starting out
-
Not flattening your hair properly before applying
-
Wearing a wig that is too big or ill-fitting
-
Forgetting to brush or detangle the wig before applying
-
Leaving the lace too visible (not melting or cutting it properly)
🧴 How to care for your wig after wearing it?
To keep your wig beautiful for longer:
-
Store it on a stand or mannequin head
-
Brush it gently after each use
-
Avoid excessive heat (flat irons, hairdryers without heat protection)
-
Wash it with gentle products once a week (if used frequently)
🎁 A little bonus from Nebi Studio
Every order includes a FREE satin bonnet, ideal for protecting your hair and wig overnight.
