Monofilament Wigs

When shopping for a wig, you’ve likely seen monofilament caps among your choices, and you can guess by the price that it’s an upgraded feature. So what exactly does it mean? Monofilament refers to the type of wig cap. Out of all of the wig options available, it offers the most realistic and natural appearance of scalp and hair movement possible.

Monofilament wigs are made by tying or sewing the hair in sections into the top portion of the cap, which is made from a very fine, sheer material known as the monofilament. The hairs are then hand-tied and knotted individually into a sheer material. This allows each of the tied hairs to be parted and brushed in any direction. Paired with a lace front, this gives the wig an impressively natural look. It will move just like your natural hair would!

Because of this time intensive process, monofilament wigs are considered to be a high quality product and more expensive than standard standard wefted caps.
