The Scarf Blog
There are those who love the changing seasons, those who eagerly await drinks in warmed mugs, and cozy thick sweaters.
Yet, even those who don’t appreciate the climate change reach for this one accessory as the temperature plummets, we are talking about scarves, of course.
Scarves come in different textures and lengths, add color to an otherwise monotone ensemble and are an effortless way to look chic. The snug factor makes scarves a favorite addition as chill levels peak.
When donning this beloved accessory, wig-wearers face a challenge even the non-attired face. Scarves add heat and friction to the neck area causing the hair in the nape area to knot up. Untangling knotted hair is time consuming and bothersome.
See some of our favorite cold weather picks fashioned to end this unpleasant chore. Instead of dreading the polar vortex and the shivers that accompany it, think about building the best snowman on the block and having your wig look great at the same time.

For those who don’t like to wear an up-do a simple braided look is a chic way to ward off knotting. This style is fabulous as it is a perfect way to wear your wig when you need a wash and set but can’t get to your stylist right away. A highlighted wig will look extra special as the color patterns are woven through each twist in the braid.
The braided pigtail braids might seem most suitable for the tots- to ten crowd, but our favorite version is for the panache and stylish.
Wear two braids loose and not completely symmetrical. This style will have your wig knot free and looking chic.
