12 Best Headband Wigs for All Hair Textures

Welcome to the wonderful world of wigs. The possibilities are endless — from 360º lacefronts to synthetic pieces and human hair in every texture. If you are just foraying into the wig life (welcome!) or if you are looking for a no-fuss hairstyle to get you through the week, then you may want to consider purchasing a headband wig.

A headband wig is exactly what it sounds like: A wig where the hairline is masked with a headband. Place it on your head and depending on the quality, hair texture and curl type, you can easily pass it off as your hair without worrying about hair glue, blending or leaving out your natural hair. Headband wigs are a great option for beginners, since they “don’t require any adhesive as the headband helps to keep the wig secure,” says hairstylist Tamika Gibson, founder of Bold Hold, a selection of wig glue adhesives.

If you are looking for a curly headband wig, one with bangs to help better blend your edges or a headband wig with human hair, we’ve rounded up the best options on the market.
