From the dawn of civilization, man's fascination with hair, and indeed Wigs has been evident. Ancient Egyptian paintings depict men and women alike adorned with elaborate wigs and hairpieces. Indeed, images of Egyptian beauty Cleopatra would not be complete without her infamous blunt ended, jet black wig. Similarly, Roman noblemen and women were renowned for wearing wigs and hairpieces to emphasise their superior status.

The art of making wigs has certainly evolved since the times of the ancient Romans and Egyptians. These days wigs and hairpieces have become so incredibly realistic that in most cases it is virtually impossible to tell if a person is in fact wearing one. Wigs today are typically made from either human hair, or convincing synthetic fibre. Both wig types have their advantages, although human hair wigs are said to be a better alternative due to the fact that feel more natural.

If you want to have a bit of a laugh, or are in need of a unique costume wear for a fancy dress party, wigs are the perfect option. The range of "party wigs" available today is truly endless- you can easily get your hands on anything from an Elvis wig to a Mullet wig. There are even miniature wigs available on the market for dolls.

Hairpieces have become a popular alternative to full wigs as they require no styling and are incredibly easy to look after. The early forerunners of today's hairpieces such as 'perukes', 'periwigs' and 'toupees' have been replaced with realistic pieces that can easily be clipped into virtually any hairstyle.

Weaving may also prove to be a wonderful substitute to wigs. Due to the fact that it is so incredibly addictive it has even been refered to by enthusiasts as the "white lady of hair". During the typical weaving process, commercial hair is attached to a person's own hair to create volume and richness. Weaving can also be used to effectively cover balding spots and thinning hairlines.

Wig creators including Rene of Paris and Louis Ferre have an extensive range of diverse wigs and hairpieces. They also provide consumers with free fitting and advice sessions by qualified stylists. Similarly, design houses such as Revlon have now included an array of wigs to their range ensuring that changing your look has never been so simple or so much fun!

Notable historical figures have worn wigs throughout history, and famous wig wearers include the likes of Louis the Fourteenth, George Washington and Queen Elizabeth of England to name but a few.
