What is Considered a Premium Wig?
Losing hair is stressful and, at times, unbearable. You might worry the wig you bought won’t conceal your hair loss, or worse, slip off. The anxiety encroaching every time you leave the house can deplete your confidence and leave you searching for better solutions.
But it’s important to keep perspective. Over half of women experience hair loss, and while it can feel isolating, you do not have to battle this alone.
Your first step is to find high-quality wigs you can depend on to offer trustworthy coverage, undetectable movement, and flawless integration with your natural hairline.
Premium wigs give you security, luscious, bouncy locks, and maximum hold and coverage. On your quest for premium wigs, look for hand-crafted, premium, human hair lace front wigs. This is what sets Daniel Alain apart from other wig manufacturers. What makes our wigs par excellence? We own every step of the manufacturing process. From sourcing the genuine European hair to dyeing, color-treating, hand-tying the knots, composing the luxurious lace caps, and enforcing strict quality control through every step of the production line.
We live and breathe quality because we believe that’s what gives you peace of mind. With a premium wig you can trust, you’ll see your confidence soar with every fabulous hair flip.
Next, we’ll outline what differentiates a premium wig from other products on the market.
1. Premium Wigs Have Real Human Hair
Human hair wigs are more durable, breathable, and natural-looking than synthetic hair wigs.
But the most premium wigs don’t use just any type of human hair. You’ll find plenty of human hair wigs made from waste hair – hair collected from hairdresser floors, hairbrushes, and bathrooms.
Despite Asian women having some of the most beautiful hair in the world, Asian wigs lose their hair quality due to shifty sourcing methods and lowered quality checkpoints along the production line. Much of the manufacturing processes are outsourced and, thus, untraceable. It’s hard to gage what processes the hair encounters along the way to retailers.
Now, that’s not to say Asian hair isn’t premium. Chinese hair, for example, is thought to grow the fastest of all other hair types. It’s also known for a sleek, straight style that many of us can only achieve with a flat iron.
However, with strict quality control, Asian and Indian hair wigs can retain their premium status. It’s rare to find a manufacturer who prioritizes these stringent manufacturing standards. But they do exist; you’ll have to do some digging to unearth them. For example, our World Select René wig is a premium wig made with a blend of Asian and Indian ponytail hair.
So, what type of human hair best indicates premium wigs? European, specifically from Eastern European countries..
European hair is hard to find on the market because it’s scarce. It’s not common for wigs to be made from clean-cut Remy ponytails that retain the cuticle. This usually is how European human hair is sourced, meaning the quality of hair, to begin with, is premium. With artisanal craftsmanship, the quality remains throughout the production line and onto your head.
Other qualifiers for premium human hair include Remy and Virgin hair. Remy hair has the cuticle intact, also known as “ponytail hair.” Virgin hair is even purer and hasn’t been treated with chemicals or dyes.
Aside from the hair, what other factors make the perfect, premium wig?
2. Premium Hair Wigs Have Lace Fronts
Lace front wigs are sheer and more comfortable to wear, allowing more breathing room for your scalp. Hello summer, without all the sweat!
Premium human hair wigs are undetectable thanks to luxuriously made lace caps. Lace fronts fulfill the undetectable requirement by mimicking your hairline seamlessly. An authentic manufacturer of premium lace front wigs won’t sacrifice lace quality to keep costs down, either. Look for premium wigs with Swiss lace – the most durable and breathable. Every piece in Daniel Alain’s Follea wig collection is handcrafted using the most prestigious Swiss lace. It’s so soft on the skin, it’s the same lace used for luxury lingerie, so you know your scalp is in loving hands!
3. Premium Lace Wigs are Hand-Tied
Mass-produced, machine-made wigs lack the desirable bounce and movement of premium wigs. Even with quality materials and human hair, wigs aren’t premium unless they’re hand-tied.
Did you know it could take weeks to hand-tie the knots on one wig? Not surprising, considering the wig artisan must knot each individual hair strand into the wig cap. A trained, highly-skilled expert is crafting your wig cap, elevating it into a premium category. You’ll experience the pinnacle of quality, comfort, and dependability.
Bottom line? Hand-tied wigs are rare. But the extra time and attention devoted to creating premium wigs pay off in unparalleled quality. Just run your fingers through a premium wig, and you’ll feel the difference!

Frequently Asked Questions About Premium Wigs
What are the Highest Quality Wigs?
The highest-quality wigs are premium human hair lace front wigs that are hand-tied. This combination of features ensures a natural look, maximum hold, and luxurious texture.
How Can You Tell if a Wig is Good Quality?
Upon first glance, the wig should look genuine. When you put it on, the hairline should integrate seamlessly with your scalp and make you wonder whether it’s actually a wig after all! After that, you’ll need to look at its construction and materials: lace front caps, European human hair, and hand-tied construction all make wigs good quality. Also, pay close attention to the natural sheen. If you take the wig outside in natural sunlight, a high-quality wig will have a nice, natural sheen versus a high shine finish. If it looks too shiny it will indicate the use of excessive silicones that eventually will wash off and expose inferior hair as compared to high-quality human hair.
How Much Does a Good Wig Really Cost?
Premium wigs cost between $2,000 - $11,000+. Why the high price range? Good-quality, genuine human hair, craftsmanship, and lace materials cost more than the average wig.
What is the Most Expensive Wig?
Daniel Alain’s Grandeur is the most expensive wig costing $10,849 - $11,934, depending on the color. You won’t find a wig with comparable shine, volume, body, or quality as it’s made from Daniel Alain’s private reserve of precious, 100% European human hair.
Are Expensive Wigs Worth it?
Absolutely, as long as they embody everything that makes a wig premium – quality hair, construction, and materials. The value comes in the comfort and confidence you emulate every time you put on your wig.
What Kind of Wig Looks Most Natural?
Wigs with lace front caps offer the most natural-looking hairline. Premium human hair wigs also offer unparalleled body, texture, and bounce to genuine hair.
What is a Hand-Tied Wig?
A hand-tied wig is hand-constructed using high-quality lace by a skilled artisan. The craftsman hand-ties each hair strand individually to the wig’s cap, creating a seamless, breathable cap. It is common to tie 4-5 strands at once whereas Daniel Alain artisans tie 1-2 hairs at once for a more natural look and movement to the hair.
Are Human Hair Wigs Better than Synthetic?
For the most part, yes. Human hair wigs are less detectable than synthetic wigs and offer a superior, more natural look. However, synthetic wigs are lighter than human hair, which some may find more comfortable. They are also more affordable, making for great introductory wigs.
What are the Different Types of Human Hair Wigs?
European Hair
European hair is the most coveted for its quality and feel, mainly coming from Eastern Europe. What makes the quality so great? Most European hair is Remy hair, also referred to as ponytail hair. It embodies superior quality due to direct sourcing, unparalleled, natural shine, and soft texture.
Indian Hair
Indian women are known for rapunzel-length locks that showcase a striking shine. Unfortunately, Indian hair in the wig market is often low-quality due to its sourcing methods. Most wigs made with Indian hair are made with “waste hair,” often damaged without the cuticle intact.
Asian Hair
Asian hair is known for its thick, ultra-shiny, flourishing strands. Unfortunately, these striking signature features often lose their luster and texture along the production pipeline. Most Asian hair wigs use hair sourced from “Waste hair” — hair collected from brushes, drains, and floors. Then, it’s often mass-produced and results in lower quality wigs. Look for Asian hair wigs made with premium production processes and transparent sourcing methods.
Virgin Hair
Virgin hair is pure hair that’s never been chemically treated or dyed. It is often cut from ponytails known as Remy hair and never touches processing or dying, keeping the hair ultra silky.
Remy Hair
Remy hair isn’t always virgin, but it always has the cuticle intact since it’s cut from ponytails from hair donors. You might also see it referred to as “ponytail hair,” indicating a higher quality wig.
