Wig Caps Flesh and Black, Pack of 2 - Wig Caps

The secret to a wig that stays put

A great wig is also won underneath. These wig caps are the little accessory that drag queens and crossdressing regulars never leave in the dressing room: a fine, stretchy mesh that flattens your hair, gives your wig a better hold and makes it more comfortable to wear.

The pack contains two caps, one flesh and one black, so you can match your skin tone and the colour of your wig.

Its strong points

A cleaner fit. The cap gathers and flattens your hair: the wig sits on a smooth base, with no bumps and no stray strands poking out.

A stronger hold. The wig grips better on the cap than on loose hair: it moves less when you dance, bend over or go from number to number.

Two colours, zero faux pas. The flesh one disappears under a light wig or one with a visible parting, the black one vanishes under a brown or dark wig.

Drag, cosplay, parties: who is it for?

For drag queens, beginners or seasoned, who want a stable wig from the makeup to the last lip sync. For crossdressing, at home or on a night out. For cosplay, where colourful, voluminous wigs need a solid base. For theme parties, Pride, carnival or a fancy-dress stag night.

How to put it on

• Long hair: braid it or pin it into flat buns.
• Pull the cap on like a beanie, from the forehead towards the nape.
• Tuck in stray strands around the ears and at the neck.
• Put the wig on from the front, then pull it back to adjust it.
• Touch up the line at the forehead and temples in front of the mirror.

Care

Hand-wash your caps in lukewarm water with a mild soap and leave them to dry flat. A clean cap keeps its shape better and protects the inside of your wig.

FAQ — Your questions, our answers

Q: Which colour should I choose?

A: Flesh for a blonde or light wig, or one with a visible parting; black for a brown or dark wig. With both in the pack, you're covered.

Q: Does it work with long hair?

A: Yes, as long as you tie it down flat first, in braids or small pinned buns.

Q: Is it useful if my head is shaved?

A: Yes: the cap avoids direct contact between your skin and the wig, and gives it a base to grip onto better.
