Human Hair Wigs in Detroit

A human hair wig is the largest single purchase most people make in a beauty supply, and the reasons to choose one over synthetic are specific rather than general. Our Detroit store off Gratiot near 7 Mile carries human hair units alongside synthetic and blend, which makes the comparison easier in person than online.

What human hair gives you

It takes heat, so it can be straightened, curled and restyled. It takes color, within limits. It moves and catches light the way growing hair does, which is what makes it convincing at close range and in photographs. And it lasts: a well-cared-for unit worn regularly survives far longer than any synthetic, which is where the cost starts to make sense.

Grades and what they mean

Remy human hair has all cuticles running root to tip, which is why it tangles less and lasts longer. Non-remy is cheaper and matts at the nape within weeks. Virgin hair has had no chemical processing, takes color most predictably and handles heat best. The label matters more than the price, and a cheap unit described as human hair is usually non-remy.

Density and length

Density describes how much hair is on the cap, and higher is not automatically better. A very dense unit reads as a wig from a distance because real hair is not that uniform. Length adds weight, which affects comfort over a full day and puts more strain on the cap and on your own hairline if it's glued.

What to buy with it

A wig cap, a stand for storage, a shampoo and conditioner made for human hair wigs, and a wide-tooth comb or looped wig brush. If it's a lace unit, adhesive and remover or the bands for a glueless cap. Heat protectant if you intend to style it, since the hair cannot repair itself.

Our Detroit store

Our Detroit store is at 15221 Houston Whittier St, just off Gratiot near 7 Mile on the east side, and it's the one that handles every online pickup order. It opens at 8:45 AM every day but Sunday, with the latest closing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8:15 PM. Coming from downtown or Midtown, Gratiot runs straight there; from the west side, 7 Mile or Davison to Conner is the quickest way over.
