Unlocking Elegance: A Guide on How to Style and Enhance the Realistic Look of the Nicole by Superhairpieces

In this blog, we are going to dive into a very popular wig in our Allure collection - Nicole, providing tips and tricks for styling to achieve a natural and realistic appearance.

Utilizing a monofilament silk top weft at the back and a 1/2" French lace front ensures comfortable wear and imparts a remarkably natural layered appearance. Tailored to fit petite-sized heads, it boasts a hair density of 110% in a medium-light shade. With proper maintenance, this wig can retain its quality for a duration of 3-6 months. Crafted from 100% hand-tied, naturally straight premium Chinese Remy human hair, the wig features an approximate length of 16".

The Nicole is layered, providing a natural volume while shaping the face. However, just like any wig, it can be styled to more of your client’s liking. Here are a few ways you can achieve a natural look while keeping your client satisfied with Nicole.

Before meeting with your client, it is important to wash and condition the wig to maintain its quality for the client and remove debris that may have accumulated during transportation.

While you have the flexibility to style the wig before meeting your client, it is strongly advised to sit down with them for a discussion on the desired style. We highly recommend styling directly from their own head rather than a mannequin to prevent any potential misunderstandings and ensure a personalized and satisfactory outcome.

With Nicole offering adjustable straps, you can consistently ensure a proper fit for the wig and make any necessary adjustments. During this process, take note of the front hairline and discuss with the client whether they prefer having bangs or not. If not, measure the appropriate length to cut the front lace.

Additionally, assess whether the client intends to use their natural baby hair. If so, you can either pluck through the wig or delicately pluck the hair at the front of the wig to achieve a sparse appearance if they prefer a baby hair frontal look.

Once you have determined the front style, you can style the rest of the wig.

Here are some great styling techniques that can be used on the Nicole.

For Daily Wear Styles:

Keep the Nicole hair down or slightly tie it back for an easygoing hair style. To keep it looking natural, keep the ties low, and if doing a half up and half down look, avoid tying above the ear. Instead, aim to have it cover the top of the ear, then add styling products to increase volume or to lay the hair down flat.

For special occasions, give the Nicole a nice curl using large rods forbeachy waves, then add some braids and nice hairpiece accessories like headbands, pins, ribbons, and bows to complete the look for a more elaborate style suitable for special events. Again, the goal to keep the natural look is to avoid having any of the outline of the base show. Keeping the tied hair look and using half updos to cover the top of the ear will definitely achieve this look.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE FOR THE NICOLE

To preserve the natural appearance of the Nicole wig, prioritizing maintenance and proper storage is essential for sustaining the quality and enhancing longevity. It is important to educate clients on how to maintain their wigs at home properly.

For storage and maintenance tips for your client, check out our recommendations below:

• When not in use, Nicole should be stored in a cool, dry location, steering clear of direct sunlight to prevent any potential damage. Utilize a wig stand to uphold the style and shape of the wig, simultaneously preventing matting and tangling.
• Delicately comb through the wig to eliminate any tangles or knots.
• Opt for a shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for wigs to ensure the hair remains clean and soft.
• Consider treating the hair with a hydrating hair mask on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to retain moisture.
• Additionally, apply a light serum nightly, focusing especially on the ends, to promote optimal nourishment.

Remember, the journey to perfect styling and maintenance is an ongoing adventure. Keep experimenting, be authentic with your clients if you are trying new styles, and most importantly, enjoy every moment of styling the stunning Nicole wig!
