Question 3

WILL THE WIG OR HAIRPIECE LOOK NATURAL?

Accepted Answer

Yes! A wig can look very natural with proper quality, styling, and maintenance.  Wigs have an artificial hairline that can create some styling restrictions for wigs unlike natural growth hair from the scalp. Certain styles and cap designs can make it easier for the wearer to disguise it such as bangs for fringes.
At design by Echo the main goal is for a client to go undetected while wearing their wig or hairpiece.
