Wigs for Kids: A Comprehensive Guide
If you’ve found yourself on this page, it’s likely that your child is dealing with hair loss, whether it’s due to alopecia, cancer, or another medical condition. Rest assure you are not alone, we’re here to support you every step of the way—from selecting the ideal wig to seeing your child walk out of our store with a new, confident smile. Here’s everything you need to know about choosing the perfect wig for your little one.
Why Wigs for Kids?
- Boosting Confidence: Hair loss can be challenging for children, often leading to embarrassment. A wig can help restore their confidence and allow them to feel more like themselves around peers.
- Secure Fit: Kids are active and can easily misplace items like hats and other accessories. To ensure the wig stays securely in place, we offer a perfect fit with the option of adding non-slip medical-grade silicone for extra security.
- Low Maintenance: Busy schedules and limited patience for hair care mean that wigs can be a practical choice. They’re designed for everyday wear and generally only need washing every 2-3 weeks.
Choosing the Right Wig for Your Child
Selecting the right wig involves several key considerations to ensure both comfort and style:
- Material Matters: Wigs come in two main types: synthetic and human hair. Synthetic wigs are often more affordable, require less upkeep, and offer a range of fun styles and colours. Human hair wigs are pricier but provide a more natural look and feel, more durable and they can be styled just like real hair.
- Size and Fit: A proper fit is essential for comfort. Measure your child’s head circumference and use our sizing guides to choose a wig that fits well. Many wigs feature adjustable straps to ensure a snug fit.
- Style and Length: Involve your child in selecting the wig’s style and length. Whether they want long, flowing hair or a chic bob, it’s important that the wig reflects their personality and makes them feel great.
Making the Wig Experience Enjoyable
Transform the process of finding a wig into a fun and positive experience:
- Wig Shopping Adventure: Turn wig shopping into an exciting outing. Let your child try on different styles and colours to find their favorite.
- Personalized Touches: Add special touches like headbands or bows to personalize the wig and make it uniquely theirs.
- Encourage Creativity: Consider the wig as a tool for imaginative play. Your child can use it to create various characters and scenarios.
- Lead by Example: If appropriate, try on a wig yourself. Seeing a parent try on a wig can boost a child’s confidence and make the experience more relatable and fun.
Conclusion

Do I need a Wig or a Topper?– Determine Your Needs: Are you looking for a full coverage solution or just a little extra volume? Do you need to cover noticeable patches or areas of thinning? Consider whether you have enough of your own hair to use a clip-in topper. Decide if you prefer a wig that offers full coverage without blending with your natural hair, or if you’d like a hair piece that blends seamlessly with your existing hair.
– Consider Your Lifestyle: Are you an active individual who requires a secure wig or topper? Do you experience heavy sweating? Do you have sensitivities or allergies to certain fabrics?
– Colour and Style: Do you want to match your natural hair colour or explore a completely new look? Consider your preferred hair texture as well do you prefer straight, wavy, or curly styles?
– Fit and Comfort: Make sure to choose a wig or topper that fits well and feels comfortable. Many options come with adjustable straps or customizable features to ensure a snug fit.How do I know what size of topper I need?The size of a hair topper you choose should be based on several factors to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance:
- Head Circumference: Measure the circumference of your head to determine the topper size that will fit comfortably and securely.
- Coverage Needs: Consider if you need to cover bald patches or thinning areas. If you have specific patches that require more coverage, choose a topper that adequately covers these areas.
- Area of Coverage: Decide if you need to cover certain areas more extensively than others. For instance, if you need more coverage on the crown or the front, select a topper with appropriate dimensions to address these areas effectively.
How can I determine the right wig size for me?Your wig size is determined by your head measurements. Please refer to our guide on how to measure your head for accurate sizing.
