Toupee Hair: Same thing as a wig?

“A toupee is just a fancy word for wig” and “men wear toupees, women wear wigs” are just two of the many misconceptions thrown around over the internet about toupees, wigs, and hairpieces in general.

So to get a better picture we need to start with the basics: what is a wig?
 what is a toupee? what is a hairpiece? and are they any different or are they just different names for the same things?

Please check the answer as below:

Toupee hair is a type of hairpiece. Hairpieces are specially made hair replacement solutions for different types of coverage. So hair extensions, bangs, custom-made hair systems and toupees all fall into the hairpiece category.

Now that we’ve established that a toupee is a type of hairpiece, what makes them unique? Well, toupees are unique in that they specialize in covering bald spots. They are partial or smaller hairpieces that are usually secured to the scalp with the use of tape, liquid bonding adhesive, or metal clips depending on the type of toupee.

Because they are made to cover bald spots, they have to match the wearer’s natural hair. And like most hairpieces, you can wear them for extended periods of time. Depending on the quality of the toupee and the attachment method, you can even exercise, shower and sleep while wearing one.

Wigs

Wigs, on the other hand, are incredibly old in design when compared to modern day hair pieces. There’s evidence that wigs were already a thing in the times of ancient Greece, Rome, and even Egypt.

Sure, wigs have evolved and changed since their creation in ancient times, but the general concept of the wig remains largely unchanged. A wig is a hair replacement solution that is:

Designed to cover the entire scalp
Can be easily placed and removed from the wearer’s head without the need of tape of bonding adhesives

It’s made out of human, animal, or synthetic hair.
