Medical-grade wigs, also referred to as cranial prostheses, are specially crafted for individuals coping with hair loss caused by various medical conditions. These include autoimmune diseases, thyroid disorders, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, alopecia, genetic disorders, aging, scalp disorders, and treatments such as radiation and chemotherapy. These wigs are meticulously made using either 100% human hair or premium-quality synthetic fibers, ensuring a natural appearance and texture. Often prescribed by medical professionals, they are distinguished by the exceptional quality of their construction, particularly the design and composition of their caps.
The cap of a medical wig is made from top-tier materials to ensure comfort for patients dealing with hair loss. Silk is used at the top to create a realistic appearance, with two layers: one with knitted hair and another that conceals the knots, giving the illusion of natural hair growth. The overall design includes French lace at the top, stretch net material in the middle and back, and poly material at the perimeter. Additionally, medical wigs feature an elastic band for secure fitting and anti-slip silicone, allowing patients to engage in various activities, including swimming, without the wig slipping off.

While we do not keep wigs in stock for direct purchase, we can special order styles that meet your unique needs.

Advantages & Disadvantages of Human Hair Wigs and Synthetic Wigs
Medical wigs and fashion wigs differ significantly in their construction. While both types aim to enhance one’s hairstyle, medical wigs are specifically designed to meet the needs of individuals experiencing hair loss due to the reasons stated in the above paragraph. These wigs require high-quality materials and precise construction to ensure comfort and durability.
Understanding the differences between medical and fashion wigs is crucial before making a purchase. The market offers a wide range of wigs, but not all are created equal. It can be challenging for an untrained eye to distinguish between high and low-quality wigs. Some wigs may stretch out or fray after a few uses.
Advantages of Synthetic Hair Wigs
Synthetic hair wigs have several advantages over their human hair counterparts. For one, they come pre-styled, meaning there is no need for self-styling.
Synthetic wigs retain their shape even after washing and can last for 12 -16 months if cared for correctly.
Compared to human hair wigs, they are also less expensive and require minimal maintenance – a simple shake and go.
Synthetic wigs are colorfast and will not fade in the sun.
They are quick and easy to use, and the best part is, you never have to spend money at the hair dressers again.
Advantages of Human Hair Wigs:
Human hair wigs offer a soft, natural look and feel, which is difficult to replicate in synthetic hair.
They can be styled as per your preference, just like your own hair. Unlike synthetic wigs, they can be exposed to heat without getting damaged, making it easier for you to use curling and straightening irons.
You can also color the human hair wigs to match you desired hair color, and they can be cut and trimmed to your liking.
With proper care, human hair wigs can last up to 24 months.
Disadvantages of Synthetic Wigs:
Synthetic hair wigs have a few disadvantages. For instance, the fiber in the wig is prone to heat damage and should not be exposed to straightening irons or dryers. Moreover, you cannot change the style or color of the wig.
Disadvantages of Human Hair Wigs:
They require shampooing, conditioning, and drying which can take up to an hour.
To achieve the style you want, they may require straightening or curling.
They are typically more expensive than synthetic wigs, often costing more than triple the price.
Every time they are washed, they need to be restyled.
