Hair Materials
Find the hair that fits your life
From easy everyday synthetic styles to versatile human hair, each material has its own strengths. Here is a simple starting point to help you choose.
At a glance
| Material | Best for | Heat styling | Things to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic Synthetic | Affordable, ready-to-wear looks | Up to approximately 160°C on compatible TRUEME styles | Can tangle more easily, especially with friction and longer lengths |
| Futura Synthetic | Heat-friendly synthetic styling | Approximately 180–200°C on compatible TRUEME styles | Generally more resistant to tangling than basic synthetic fibers, but still needs gentle care; allow heated styles to cool to set |
| Human Hair | Natural movement and flexible styling | Can be heat styled with protection and appropriate temperatures | Usually costs more and needs washing, conditioning and maintenance |
Heat limits vary by product. Always check the specific wig instructions and test a small section first. No wig is completely tangle-free.
Understanding human hair terms
Remy Hair
Hair with cuticles generally kept aligned in the same direction, helping reduce friction and tangling when properly processed and cared for.
Virgin Hair
Typically refers to human hair that has not been chemically colored or permed. The exact meaning can vary by supplier, so we look beyond the label to assess quality.
Raw Hair
Usually refers to minimally processed human hair that retains more of its original texture. Raw does not automatically mean better for every customer.
What about density?
Density describes how full a wig looks. For example, 150%, 180%, 200% and 250% are commonly used density labels, but fullness can vary by cap construction and supplier. We recommend choosing based on the look you want, not the number alone.
We will keep expanding this guide with examples and photos of our actual styles.
