There is one big misconception: believing all wigs can be medical wigs
Medical wigs are specifically designed for individuals experiencing hair loss due to medical conditions such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, alopecia, or other medical treatments. These wigs are created with careful consideration for comfort, breathability, and sensitivity of the scalp.
- Construction: Medical wigs often have a specialized construction, featuring a soft and lightweight cap that is gentle on the scalp. They may have additional features like adjustable straps or silicone grips for a secure fit.
- Breathability: Medical wigs prioritize breathability to ensure proper ventilation and minimize discomfort, especially for individuals with sensitive scalps or undergoing treatment.
- Natural Appearance: Medical wigs are crafted to mimic the appearance of natural hair, with attention to realistic hairlines, partings, and textures. They are often made from lightweight, high-quality materials that provide a natural and undetectable look.

Medical Wigs Type
These wigs feature a lace cap construction that covers the entire head. They offer many benefits for medical patients, including:
- A natural look: Full lace wigs are made with a fine mesh of lace that is virtually undetectable, giving the illusion of having your own hair. This can be a major boost for self-confidence, especially during a time when hair loss can be a difficult and emotionally draining experience.
- Comfort: Full lace wigs are lightweight and breathable, making them comfortable to wear even for long periods of time. This is important for cancer patients who may be undergoing chemotherapy or other treatments that can cause fatigue or other side effects.
- Versatility: Full lace wigs can be styled in a variety of ways, so you can find a look that suits your individual taste. This can help you feel more like yourself and less self-conscious about your hair loss.
- Durability: Full lace wigs are made with high-quality materials that can withstand everyday wear and tear. This means that you can wear your wig with confidence, knowing that it will last for many years to come.
Lace front wigs have a lace panel at the front hairline, providing a natural-looking appearance and allowing for the hair to be styled away from the face. The remaining cap may be constructed with other materials for comfort and breathability. In addition to these benefits, lace front wigs can also help to protect your scalp from the sun and cold weather. This is important for medical patients who may be undergoing treatment that makes their scalp more sensitive to the elements. They are also:
- Swim-proof: Some lace front wigs are swim-proof, which means you can wear them in the pool or ocean without having to worry about them getting damaged. This is a great option for cancer patients who enjoy swimming.
- Durable: Lace front wigs are made with high-quality materials that can withstand everyday wear and tear. This means that you can wear your wig with confidence, knowing that it will last for many years to come.
Monofilament wigs are a popular choice among individuals experiencing hair loss due to medical conditions. These wigs are known for their exceptional realism, comfort, and versatility. The monofilament construction refers to the cap design, which features a thin, breathable material that mimics the appearance of a natural scalp.
The cap of a monofilament wig is constructed using a sheer mesh fabric, typically made of nylon or polyester. This material is soft, lightweight, and allows for proper ventilation, ensuring a comfortable wearing experience even for individuals with sensitive scalps. The sheer mesh cap creates the illusion of a realistic scalp, making the wig virtually undetectable.
Hand-tied wigs are renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship, comfort, and natural appearance. These wigs are meticulously crafted with each individual hair strand being hand-tied to the cap, creating a lightweight and realistic wig that closely resembles natural hair growth.
The construction of hand-tied wigs involves skilled artisans tying each hair strand to the cap by hand. This labor-intensive process ensures that the hair flows freely and naturally, allowing for seamless movement and styling versatility. The hand-tied technique also provides a higher degree of comfort as it eliminates the bulk and weight associated with other wig construction methods.
One of the key benefits of hand-tied wigs is their exceptional breathability. The individual hair strands are tied onto a soft and breathable cap material, typically made of lightweight fabrics like fine mesh or silk. This allows for proper airflow to the scalp, reducing heat and moisture buildup, and ensuring a comfortable experience, particularly for individuals with sensitive scalps.
Custom-made wigs are the epitome of personalized luxury and are tailored specifically to meet the unique needs and preferences of each individual. These wigs offer a truly bespoke solution, ensuring a perfect fit, style, and appearance that is tailored to your exact specifications.
The process of creating a custom-made wig begins with a detailed consultation between you and the wig specialist at Sika Wigs and Extensions. During this consultation, your measurements, desired hair length, color, texture, and style are carefully discussed and taken into consideration. This ensures that every aspect of the wig is customized to meet your specific requirements.
Once the specifications are determined, skilled wig artisans start crafting your custom wig. They meticulously hand-select the highest quality materials, whether it's human hair or premium synthetic fibers, ensuring the finest craftsmanship and attention to detail.
