Tips On Hints About The Changing Styles Of Wigs

By Carrie Lieberman


The use of a reproduction hair piece has been seen on many famous figures over the centuries. Although it was utilized for many different reasons, wigs always made an appearance in history sooner or later. The changing styles of wigs were seen to contribute to the ever evolving fashion style of the times as well.

In ancient Egypt, a wig was used to cover up a shaved head from the heat of the sun; they were seen as an everyday fashion accessory. It was held up with the aid of beeswax and resin. These iconic head pieces did not make another appearance in the West until the 16th century.

They were not seen in Western culture until the 16th century where they were made famous by Queen Elizabeth the 1st. You can also see that other famous monarchs soon followed this example soon after. There are records of some Kings who have chosen to wear these hair reproductions to disguise premature balding.

Another reason why many chose to wear a wig instead of their own natural hair was because it was more sanitary to do so. These pieces often come from natural human hair, which you can apply heat to and style in any way you desire. There have also been other materials like yak hair, horsehair and wool that have been seen to make suitable replacements too.

A lot of children nowadays are also seen to be sporting these accessories. It may be due to illness or the need to have a costume to match. They are very child friendly and are known to help improve their self esteem and confidence.

These unique periwigs also come in many colors and can help you change your look into something different. The great thing about them is that you can also wash and style these things just like your natural hair. However, you must not use heat when styling due to the fact that the accessory may become damaged, a sponge roller is what is usually recommended.

These modern times have been able to improve upon the changing styles of wigs over what was used to make them in the past. There are also more occasions to wear them today like parties or to portray a character in an event. These fashion accessories can be used by children and adults alike and will help you boost your self esteem.
