When shopping for a wig, one of the biggest questions many women ask is:
“Should I go sleek or curly?”
Bone straight wigs and water curl wigs are two of the most popular styles in Kenya right now — and each gives you a completely different vibe.
Here’s how to choose the perfect one for you.
1. The Look: Sleek vs. Textured
Bone Straight Wig:
- Gives a polished, “rich girl” finish
- Perfect for formal events, office wear, or minimal makeup days
- Looks best when styled flat and glossy
Water Curl Wig:
- Voluminous, natural, and bouncy
- Great for casual, beachy, or soft glam looks
- Blends easily with natural African hairlines
2. Maintenance
Bone Straight Wig Needs:
- Heat protection spray for flat ironing
- Silk wrap or bonnet to keep it sleek
- Regular straightening for that smooth finish
Water Curl Wig Needs:
- Water + conditioner mist to refresh curls
- Finger detangling and mousse
- Air drying (no heat needed!)
3. Weather Friendliness in Kenya
Bone Straight:
- May lose shape in high humidity (like Mombasa)
- Best for cooler seasons or indoor wear
Water Curl:
- Humidity-friendly — curls stay fresh even in hot weather
- Great for both coastal and upcountry climates
4. Styling Options
Bone Straight:
- Middle or side parts
- Ponytails and sleek buns
- Great for adding bold lip or dramatic eye makeup
Water Curl:
- Wet look or fluffy natural
- Half-up styles, high buns, or soft baby hairs
- Perfect with minimal makeup and lashes
💵 5. Price Comparison
Both styles are available in human hair options.
- Bone straight human hair is usually more expensive due to longer length and smoothness
- Water curls may be cheaper in shorter lengths but still give volume
