How Much Does It Cost to Have a Wig Made with Real Hair?

When it comes to wigs, nothing quite matches the natural look, feel, and versatility of real human hair. But how much does it cost to have a custom wig made with real hair? The price can vary significantly based on factors such as hair quality, wig construction, and customization. In this article, we’ll break down the costs, what influences them, and why Total Image Hair is the go-to provider for high-quality real hair wigs in Los Angeles.​


The Average Cost of a Custom Real Hair WigThe cost of a real human hair wig typically ranges between $700 to $3,000 or more, depending on several factors:

1. Hair Quality : One of the most critical components influencing the cost is the quality of the hair used:

• Virgin Hair: 100% natural hair that has never been chemically treated. This is the most expensive option and can cost $1,500 to $3,000 per wig.
  
  
• Remy Hair: High-quality hair where the cuticles remain aligned, reducing tangling and ensuring a natural look. Wigs made from Remy hair typically cost between $800 and $2,000.
  
  
• Processed Hair: Treated hair that is more affordable but may have a shorter lifespan. These wigs range from $700 to $1,500.

Total Image Hair specializes in premium virgin and Remy hair wigs to ensure the most natural appearance and durability.

2. Customization Options : A fully customized wig involves precise measurements, personalized cap construction, and color matching, all of which contribute to the overall cost:

• Hand-Tied Wigs: Each strand of hair is individually sewn into the wig cap, providing a natural scalp appearance and greater flexibility. This method can add $500 to $1,000 to the total cost.
  
  
• Lace Front Wigs: These offer a natural hairline, making them ideal for styles that require pulling the hair back. Expect to pay $1,200 to $2,500 for a high-quality lace front wig.
  
  
• Full Lace Wigs: For maximum versatility and the ability to part the hair anywhere, full lace wigs can cost between $1,500 and $3,000.
  
  

At Total Image Hair, we offer both lace front and full lace options, with each wig custom-fitted to the client’s unique needs.

3. Length and Density: The length and thickness of the hair significantly affect the price. Longer and denser wigs require more hair, increasing the cost:

• Short Wigs (8-12 inches): Typically range from $700 to $1,500.
• Medium Length Wigs (14-18 inches): Usually cost between $1,200 and $2,000.
• Long Wigs (20 inches or more): Can cost $2,000 to $3,500 or higher.

Total Image Hair offers a wide variety of lengths and densities, allowing clients to choose a style that best suits their needs.

4. Maintenance and Care
Owning a real hair wig involves ongoing maintenance costs to keep it looking its best:

• Wig Care Products: High-quality shampoos, conditioners, and styling products designed for real hair wigs can cost $50 to $150 annually.
  
  
• Professional Cleaning and Styling: Periodic professional cleaning and styling can range from $75 to $200 per session.
  
  

With Total Image Hair, we provide guidance on proper care and offer professional maintenance services to extend the lifespan of your wig.
