When it comes to performance wigs, not all are created equal. At How’s Your Head Wigs, we pride ourselves on offering theatrical-quality pieces designed for the stage, screen, and beyond. Our wigs aren’t just about looking beautiful — they’re crafted for durability, realism, and flexibility under demanding conditions.
Here’s what sets our wigs apart from the rest.
Hybrid HD Lace: The Best of Both Worlds
Cheaper wigs have dyed material (replica Swiss) fitted instead of a true lace which is usually very visible against skin and mis-shapes after a couple of wears. While expensive wigs with ultra-thin (genuine) Swiss lace risks tearing under the pressures of performance.
Our hybrid HD lace strikes the perfect balance:
- Woven similar to genuine Swiss lace: Virtually invisible under both stage lights and HD cameras.
- Durable construction like French lace: Strong enough to withstand quick changes, heavy styling, and repeated use.
- Transparent to work with all skin tones.
- Soft for performer comfort: Soft and breathable, so wigs feel as good as they look.
This makes them ideal for professional theatre productions, drag, film shoots, and long-running performances.
Unique Fibre Blends: Realism Meets Longevity
Manufacturers often use cheaper fibres such as henlon or even modlon to keep costs low, leaving customers to struggle with shine or stiffness. We’ve solved that problem with a proprietary fibre blend that mimics the look and movement of human hair.
- Natural finish: No unnatural plastic sheen — more realistic texture.
- Heat resistance: Safe for low-to-medium heat styling, giving you more creative control.
- Long-lasting wear: Fibres designed to resist tangling and frizzing, even under hot stage lights.
This blend ensures your wig holds its style — without sacrificing realism.
Hand-Tied Hairlines: Seamless Perfection
The finishing touch that makes our wigs truly stage-ready is the hand-tied hairline. Every strand is individually knotted for a natural growth pattern.
- Flawless realism: Hair looks like it’s growing directly from the scalp.
- Styling freedom: Part, style, and shape hair away from the face without exposing the wig.
- Professional craftsmanship: Each wig is a testament to the artistry and skill of experienced makers.
This attention to detail is what transforms a wig from “costume” into character.
Why It Matters
For performers, a wig isn’t just an accessory — it’s a tool. It has to survive quick changes, endure sweat and movement, and still look immaculate under the scrutiny of the spotlight or camera lens. By combining hybrid HD lace, unique fibre blends, and hand-tied hairlines, our wigs deliver on all fronts: realism, resilience, and performance-ready glamour.
