Wigs can be made from human hair, synthetic hair, animal hair, or a blend of two or three types. WigsOutlet doesn't carry any animal hair products. You can use a simple test to tell the difference between human hair and synthetic hair. Cut a small piece of hair from back of the wig. Human hair burns slowly and gives off a strong odor.
Synthetic hair burns quickly and gives off little or no odor.
You can feel small, hard beads in the burnt ash of synthetic hair. The quality wig depends largely on whether it is constructed by hand or by machine. Expensive, custom-made wigs are hand knotted into a fine mesh foundation. In cheaper wigs, hair is sewn by machine into a net cap in circular rows. All human hair wigs in WigsOutlet are one of the best quality wigs in the wig market today.
