Elevate your style with a curly wig, an easy way to achieve natural-looking, flawless curls. They are versatile and perfect for any occasion, and they have endless styling options. These curly wig hairstyles are sure to have you feeling confident and beautiful whether you’re with your girlfriends for a night out in the ATL or catching up on your shopping around Lenox Square Mall.
Frontal Curly Wig Hairstyles
A frontal wig has a strip of lace running from ear to ear that covers the entire hairline. The lace blends to your hairline and natural skin, and the ability to cover the front area of your head means you can style the wig like you would your own hair. There’s never a boring hair day with so many styling options, and a great hair salon has the services you need to achieve the look you want.
Braided Styles
With longer curls, you can create a number of braided styles. Start by pulling the lace front back into a ponytail and braiding the loose hair down to the ends. If you’re looking for extra drama and sass, style your hair in an ear-to-ear cornrow braid. You can also do a comb-over with box braids that leave room for the curls to shine. This is a stylish option when you want more sophistication to your look.
Half-and-Half Styles
Since the lace covers the full front of the head, you have several options with half-up and half-down styles. You can pull just the front hair back into a ponytail and leave the back loose to highlight the curls. Add extra flair and drama with a bejeweled hair clip or other fashionable accessory at the top of your ponytail.
Low Styles
A higher ponytail is a go-to in curly wig hairstyles, but depending on the occasion, you may need something less sporty or casual. A low ponytail is chic, especially when you gather the hair at the base of the neck. Leave some volume around the front of the head to soften the look or let a curl or two escape from around the ears. Low styles are easy to pull off with a frontal wig since the lace is at the front and won’t show wafts at the nape of the neck.
Short Curly Wig Hairstyles
Working with a short curly wig offers plenty of fun and drama to add to your style. From classic styles like a bob to adding bangs, your shorter curls can still be the star of the show in these hairstyles.
Pixie Side Braid
The curls on a shorter wig will frame your face, but this side braid will draw attention to your eyes. Start by parting your hair on any side you want. From there, take several strands of curls on the larger side and weave them into a braid. Secure the braid with a hair tie before wrapping the braid to the other side of your head and securing it with pins or a clip.
Middle Part With Clips
For another dramatic look, brush out the hair well before parting it down the middle of your head. From there, secure each side with bold hair clips parallel at the edge of your eyes. You’ll want to make sure the top of your wig is smooth and sleek to create the right effect.
Bob With Bangs
Nothing frames your facial features more than a short bob of gorgeous curls. Add in bangs and the look is complete. Box braids might look a little stiff, but small, curly tresses are a different story. The bangs can soften the look and help your eyes stand out. Another option with a bob is half cornrows. With a bob-length style, the half braids and half curls create a boho chic vibe that is sure to draw the eye.
Long Curly Wig Hairstyles
Curly hair commands attention when walking into a room. With long curly tresses, you can experiment with top knots and buns or let your curls flow long and loose.
Side Part
A side part is a chic and easy way to bring drama to your appearance. A side-part combover with just a few strands of curls is one option, or create a deep part by increasing the amount of hair you comb over. A complete middle part can have a similar effect.
Updo
If you want a gorgeous, elegant style for your hair, an updo is ideal. It creates a flattering profile for formal events, and it isn’t hard to achieve. Develop the look by using a loose French braid swept into a full, messy bun. Pull out a curl or two to soften the framing around the face.
Pigtails and Buns
Long hair looks great up or down, and you can use pigtails and buns to create height with your hair. Curly wig hairstyles that are great for casual use include double loose twisted buns with pigtails on the front of the hair or a loose middle part with low pigtails.
Hairstyles for Curly Wigs To Avoid
If you have a frontal wig, there are a few hairstyles that won’t work well. Since lace fronts only have lace around the front perimeter, you wouldn’t want to try a high ponytail, as it might expose the wefts in the back. The same is true of straight-back cornrows or space buns. The wefts of the wig are noticeable when the hair is parted straight down the middle, and there is no lace in the middle of a lace front wig.
If these are hairstyles that you can’t afford to go without, a full lace wig is optimal. With lace through the whole wig cap, you can part the hair any way you want, creating a range of natural-looking styles.
