Top Reasons Why Human Hair Wigs Are So Expensive

When we bought hair extensions, we all think why human hair wigs are so expensive, just pick up a lace wig is more than $50, and the price is only for synthetic hair, not human hair. We all want to know why they are so expensive.

Just think about when we buy the handbags, clothes or any accessories, if they are all made by a famous designer, then we will not hesitate to buy. When you buy the origin bags, can you understand why it's so expensive? We will compare the price of origin and copy handbags.

Human hair wigs are also the same, and also order hair wigs need to consider many conditions, such as texture, lifespan, color, style, etc. Let’s looking for the reasons why human hair wigs are so expensive!

A. The Hair Quality

The quality of hair which was made for human hair wigs determined 80% of the wig cost. We are not talking about grade 8A, 9A or even 10A, the grade is only named by the wig store or the wig supplier. Now we are talking about the source of the hair.

As we all know, the hair which is cut from one donor, the quality is the best, it called unprocessed virgin hair. It all keeps cuticles in the same direction, and the hair head and tail is separate, you can dye and bleach any color which you want, like highlight 613# and 60# blonde color is very popular recently.

And also unprocessed virgin hair can last a long time, the lifespan is about two years. Even it is expensive, but you can use it for a long time. You don’t worry about the cleanliness of the hair, we use high-quality medical wash it to remove the bacteria. We ensure that you can use it comfortably.

B. Lace Cap

We must speak of the lace caps when talking about human hair wigs. 

Do you have the experience that the lace of your human hair wig was torn? If yes I'm sure that is a terrible experience. But don't worry, at Bejoy Hair Wigs, we use the best quality lace which may cost us more, but in our heart, producing high-quality human hair wigs is important than making more profit.

C. Make the Human Hair Wigs

If you know how to make the human hair wigs, you may understand why human hair wigs are so expensive. The main reason is: hand tied.

Lace front wigs and 360 lace wigs both made by lace frontals (or 360 frontals) and hair bundles, so they are hand tied plus machine made, take less time than full lace wigs. If you want to make a full lace wig, it needs about 40 hours (working all the 40 hours), and also if you want single knot hairline and silk base, it will need more than three times as long. If you want 150% density even 180% density will need long time because the manufacturers must knot more hair on the lace cap.

Before the human hair wig making, it also needs many procedures, such as prepare the raw hair, pick the white hair and red hair, then clean and dye ( if you want other colors not natural black). We have professional wig technician to hook the hair to the lace caps, so the knots are very tight, you can wash it as you like, it will not lose hair. That is a part of labor cost.

D. Different Colors and Styles

Someone like natural black color, but someone prefer coffee color or even light color, if make a light color, it needs bleach hair firstly, it need use high-quality medical liquid to bleach it, it will need 6 hours, then we can dye the color which you want, like #2 #4 is also popular. It also needs 6 hours.

Which texture would you like? What about the straight hair wigs, wavy hair wigs, deep wave hair wigs, curly hair wigs, even afro curly wigs, etc. We need to use crabstick or old newspaper to make the style firstly, then we need to use high-quality shampoo to wash it, make style again, then wash and dry it.

By the way, Bejoy Hair Wigs as a professional wig factory, we accept custom-made style, if you have style pictures, we can make it follow the pictures.

E. Compare with Synthetic Hair

Synthetic hair is much cheaper than human hair, it can be made very straight texture. Synthetic hair is pressed, cut and predesignated, it is very straight, not easy to change the style. But it is not human hair, it is not soft and smooth, even though it has gloss. I just learn about synthetic hair cannot make other styles which you want, it cannot make by hair curler, it is not controlled by heat.

What's worse, human hair is natural so far than synthetic hair, and the lifespan is longer. Synthetic wigs can only last less than 3 months, but human hair wigs can last more than 1 year with proper care.

Making a human hair wig need to spend lots of money and energy, so the selling price is higher than other hair products. But I'm sure you will understand why human hair wigs are so expensive after this blog.
