Closure Wig Hairstyle Options and Limitations

Though many styles work for closure wigs, some will not. That’s why it’s important to know your closure wig styling options and limitations. Let’s take a look below!

Closure Wig Styling Options

• Simple, parted hair: The closure is designed to create the illusion of natural-growing hair in the front. Closures usually come with 3 parting options, including the middle part only, the 3 part (middle, left, and right), and the free part (part anywhere on the lace).

• Heat styling: Closure wigs can be heat styled however you like, provided they are made of quality human hair. You can use a flat iron for sleek straight hair or a curling iron/wand for some bouncy curls.

• Half up half down styles: Half up half down styles will take a little finessing, since the goal is to pull half of the hair up without showing the wig’s wefts. However, with practice, well-placed swoops, and maybe some long tendrils or bangs, you can make it happen.

• Bobs: Bobs are always an option for your lace closure wig. Try a traditional bob, asymmetrical bob, or even a lob.

• Curls: Whether you’re into loose, beachy waves or tight springy curls, you can easily achieve them with a closure wig.

Hairstyles that Won’t Work on Your Closure

• High pulled back styles: A lace closure only covers a small front portion of the wig. This makes it difficult to pull the hair upwards or backwards without revealing the wefts on the sides.

• Intricate up-dos: Up-dos may cause the same issues as the pulled-back styles. Depending on how you lift the hair, your wefts and edges may end up exposed.

1. Long And Bone Straight With Middle Part

Long, straight hair with a middle part is both classic and simple. It exudes a touch of sultry elegance that makes every woman look and feel more beautiful. This gorgeous style works for any occasion, from everyday shopping trips to even the most classy events.

2. Kinky Blonde Bob With Side Part

An icy platinum blonde bob like this one may just prove that blondes have more fun! You can fluff your kinky curls as much or as little as you like to create a playful look for work and play. Just be sure to keep them moisturized for maximum definition.

3. Long Body Wave Curls With Middle Part

Go big or go home - that’s what this style is all about. It’s for anyone who likes long hair with large waves and lots of body. Wear this style to look super glam at a party or on a romantic date.

When the occasion calls for drama, bring it all with these long bombshell curls. These juicy, face-framing curls slenderize your face and bring out your cheekbones for an Insta-ready look all-around. The long length makes you look and feel glam in virtually any outfit, from casual to formal.

6. Long, Blonde, and Straight

Waist-length, bone-straight, blonde hair against dark skin is a beautiful sight - and this image is the proof! But be careful, because with this style, it’ll be impossible for you to blend in with the crowd. To get a sleek look like this, you’ll need genuine human hair and a quality flat iron.

7. Curly Fro

Celebrate the beauty of curls with a stunning curly fro! This wild and fun look exudes an air of youthfulness and works for just about every face shape. The best thing about a curly wig like this one is that you can pair it with a casual shirt and jeans or a long flowy maxi dress and look breathtaking either way.

8. Honey Blonde Waves

Is platinum blonde a little too much for you? Then a honey blonde hue is a great alternative. This honey blonde streaked closure wig looks more natural than lighter blonde wigs and complements caramel and chocolate skin tones like a dream. You can use a wave wand to give the wig some body within just a few minutes. This look is perfect for a movie night, drinks with friends, or dinner with that special someone.

9. Curly Bob With Bangs

Have you ever tried a bang style? If you haven’t, you’re missing out. Bangs are a stylish and sexy way to elevate your overall look. Just pull those front hairs forward and trim them to the proper length. Pair them with a curly bob cut to highlight your facial features and create an edgy style that’s perfect for any event.

10. Straight Bob With Bangs

The straight bob with bangs is a favorite among celebs, influencers, and everyday baddies. The bangs frame your face beautifully and accentuate your cheekbones for a flawless look any day. The style works perfectly for professional meetings and formal occasions and is also great for casual day trips to the mall or a night out with friends.

11. Brown To Blonde Ombre Lob

Need a style that’s got flavor but is still wearable? Why not try a mix of dark and light? Blonde mid lengths and ends with dark roots give the illusion of natural roots growing in. Pair this color with a lob cut for a style that can take you from a formal work presentation to an all-out birthday bash!

12. Ginger Side Part

Ginger orange hair catches the eye instantly and complements virtually all shades of brown skin. Hair colors like these are bold, yet beautiful, and you just can't go wrong with a simple side part. A hair hue like this will complement all of your club wear or any fun one-piece or two-piece bodysuit you’ve been dying to slay in.

13. Curtain Bangs

Curtain bangs…ever vintage, ever trendy! If you’ve been itching to jump on the curtain bang bandwagon, the time is now. These curtain bangs have a delightful vintage vibe that’s great for a family barbecue, shopping trip, or when you’re running everyday errands.

The classic pixie cut is hard to beat. It’s cute, fun, and easy to maintain. Feel free to part your hair wherever you’d like to change up the style based on your face shape. Although you can wear this style for any outing, it is especially suited to professional settings where you would wear something more formal.

15. Medium-Length Wavy

Medium-length hair grants you more styling options than short hair without the hassle that comes along with extra-long hair. Choose a wavy textured wig or add some subtle waves to the wig for some added personality. Now you’re ready for anything, including a party with friends or game night with the family.

16. Curly Low Ponytail

If you like the idea of a low-maintenance style, the curly low ponytail will be your jam! A simple low ponytail not only looks elegant, but it keeps your hair out of the way and puts your facial features on blast. For work or play, this style is a fantastic option.

17. Money Pieces

Money pieces are one of the hottest trends in hair color in general, but you’ll often see people adding them to their closure wigs. Money pieces are highlighted or boldly colored chunks of hair at the front hairline. They come in all colors, so you can choose a color that best matches your personality or wig color. Try money pieces if you’re not 100% ready to commit to a full color job or just want to give the color trend a try.

18. Red Highlights

Few colors excite as much as fire engine red, but it can be too bold for some. So, rather than going full red, go darker red or burgundy and add some excitement with some well-placed bright red highlights. This look complements any skin tone and tops off casual outfits like a dream.

19. Straight Burgundy Bang Wig

Though burgundy isn't a natural hair color, it’s popularity is undeniable. Why? It looks fantastic against melanated skin! It also isn't overly bright but still attracts attention. Straight eye-skimming bangs take the look up a notch, propelling this style to baddie status.

20. Silver Ombre

This electrifying silver ombre style is a looker! It blends darker tones at the top with a light silver color below. This gives a more natural effect than some other options, with a smooth transition between the two shades. A simple center part accentuates this look and is perfect for both relaxed and elegant affairs.

21. Navy Blue Ombre

Navy blue ombre hair is getting more and more attention on social media. Perhaps it’s because it’s both wearable and attention-grabbing. This gorgeous look is perfect for clubbing, parties, or any other fun activities on your list!

22. Pastel Pink Curls

Want to look like an angel? Try pastel pink curls for a gentle touch of whimsy. It’s most loved by fans of mermaids, fairies, and unicorns. Wear it with your everyday fits and even semi-casual ensembles to look enchanting.

23. Medium Length Blue Wig

Like pastel pink, bright blue is a favorite of those who love fantasy worlds and entertainment. But you don’t have to watch anime or fantasy films to try out blue hair. Just look at the above image - this hair is bomb! Blue hair accentuates most dark skin tones, bringing out its warm undertones. Blue medium-length hair with a simple center part is a lovely style for shopping with friends or going out on the town. But be aware, it may not be widely accepted in corporate workplaces.

24. Bobby Pin Design On Wig

Just because you’re wearing a closure wig or sew-in doesn’t mean you can’t use hair accessories. Just a few bobby pins can take your closure unit to the next level! You can arrange the bobby pins along the sides, above your ears, or however you like. This creates an attractive design that you can wear to the gym, to the store, or even for more formal occasions like weddings or graduations.

25. Half Up Half Down Ponytail

A lovely half-up ponytail with the rest of your hair left loose looks stunning for informal occasions, like a birthday party or shopping trip with the girls. You do need to be careful to keep those wefts covered on the sides, but don’t let this stop you from enjoying this simple, yet chic, style.

Tips to Choose Your Closure Hairstyle

There are so many style choices available that choosing one can be especially challenging. So, we’d like to help you out with some helpful tips you can use to narrow your choices down. Let’s get right into it!

Your lifestyle: If you are someone who’s constantly on the go, without time to primp and restyle your hair, low-maintenance styles are a must. By “low-maintenance”, we are referring to any style that doesn’t require maintenance throughout the day. Low-maintenance styles include bobs, a curly fro, or a low ponytail.

The occasion: If you need a wig for a formal occasion, you should go for styles that aren’t overly distracting or deemed unprofessional. Styles like the straight bob with bangs, long straight or wavy styles, or the low ponytail will work well. For casual occasions, go for a half-up half-down ponytail, a style with money pieces, or even pink or blue hair - the choice is yours. And when you want to go all-out glam, go for big voluminous styles like bombshell curls, a long blonde style, or super long tousled waves.

The weather: When it’s raining out, the last style you should wear is one that’s so long and bulky that you can’t cover it all - go short. If it’s cold, it’s best to wear a style that covers your shoulders and neck - go long. When it’s hot out, updos and short styles are best.

Your personal preference: When it comes to your hairstyle, you really don’t have to follow any rules. So, if any of the styles seem to be calling your name, go with it!
