Wigs, weaves, or hair pieces – the names are many, but the idea is one and the same! These are fantastic hair enhancement products that provide either full or partial coverage. They can also be used to add volume, length, or color to your own natural hair.
Whatever the reason for wearing a wig or hair piece, choosing the right product for you can get confusing, considering the variety of options available if you’re new to hair enhancers.
Read this guide to find everything you need to know about hair pieces.
Before we dive into our top selection of hair enhancement pieces, it is important to know what they are. With Paula Young®, leave all your hair woes behind and hop on the train that leads to fabulous hair every day!
What Are Hair Pieces?
Hair pieces are typically designed to add volume, coverage, or both, to a specific area of the head or crown. They can also enhance your existing style by giving more volume in the form of ponytails, buns, wraps, clip-in extensions, and hair toppers.
These hair enhancement pieces differ from wigs as they are more targeted toward specific locations. They help add volume to thinning hair.
Think of these hair enhancement pieces as smaller than wigs. But this doesn’t mean that the styles are any less!
Where ponytails, wraps, buns, and clip-in extensions enhance and amplify your existing style, problem-solving wiglets, toppers, and volumizer hair pieces for thinning hair or hair loss give you coverage and confidence exactly where you need.
How Do Hair Pieces Differ From Wigs?
The fundamentals of wigs are that they cover more significant or entire areas of the crown or scalp, whereas hair pieces provide coverage only where you need it. Wigs are made of either synthetic or human hair fibers, using different cap constructions. The most common wigs are lace front wigs, 100% hand-tied wigs, open cap wigs, and monofilament wigs.
They may be glueless or need adhesives to stay on, whereas hair pieces usually do not need any external adhesives to stay attached to your hair.
Hair enhancement pieces, especially at Paula Young®, come with their own set of clips, headbands, or other modes of attachment in the case of ponytails, wraps, and buns. So you can get styling without a worry in the world!
What Are The Benefits Of Using Hair Pieces?
The benefits of using these hair enhancers are many. Some of them are:
- They add instant length and volume to your hair.
- They conceal any thinning spots of hair.
- They enhance your style by adding texture and color to your hair.
- Made of human hair or high-quality synthetic fibers, they look and feel the most natural.
- They are low maintenance.
- They are breathable, comfortable, and durable.
- Human hair and heat-friendly synthetic hair pieces, such as those made of VersaFiber®, are heat-stylable up to 350ºF.
With such a multitude of benefits, it’s hard not to love these pieces! Effortless beauty is now possible with a variety of hair pieces specially designed for you.

When not in use, be sure to store it flat in a box, or better yet, invest in a cool wig stand where your beauty can get the rest it deserves.
To wash the hair pieces after every 10-15 wears, use a sulfate, paraben, and ammonia-free shampoo and conditioner.
Air dry your hair pieces and watch them return to their original style unharmed, looking as fresh as the day you bought them!
When heat styling human hair or VersaFiber® pieces, remember to always use a heat protectant spray and keep the temperature to a minimum.
