Curly Lace Front Wigs And Performing Arts

Curly lace front wigs are always seen in western opera, and other non-professional performances. Today's article will introduce the integration of curly wigs and performing arts. Have a look together.

 

u Traditional Performing Arts-Western Opera

 

The performers of western traditional opera always use curly lace front wigs in their performances. Just like other traditional operas, the wigs used in opera are also different according to the identity, gender, character, occupation, the background of the times, etc.

 

For example, the leading actor, heroine, villain, bad girl and other characters will have different styles of curly lace front wigs.

Opera wigs, especially for the main characters are made according to the shape of the actor's head. Therefore, if different actors perform the same role in the same play, the wigs used will be different, and the less important or supporting roles may use the ready-made wigs.

 

Some actors will order wigs for their roles and prepare them for the performance. Opera uses a lot of wigs in every performance. The more characters, the more wigs.

 

For example, 《The Trojan》which is performed by the Metropolitan Opera in 2002-2003, requires 250 wigs. Due to a large number of wigs used, some large-scale opera troupes also have personnel and departments specially responsible for making wigs, and the number of stored wigs can reach 5000-6000.

 

Make a model before making a curly lace front wig. 

 

 

First, flatten the actor's own hair, wrap it with plastic film or tape from the top of the head to the neck, and then draw the actor's hairline on the plastic film. Then take off the plastic film, put it on a model head that is the same size as the actor's head and filled with cotton, and then continue to wrap the plastic film until it becomes hard to make a model.

 

Then make the head cap according to the required shape. The head cap is made of mesh material, and the front part is made of soft, thin and imperceptible lace net. Then select the appropriate material and color of hair, and use a hook tool to knot the hair from different places. The whole process takes 24 to 40 hours.

 

A normal wig weighs about eight ounces, but wigs for certain characters will be heavier, such as those worn during rehearsals, to test comfort and affect performance. If any problem is found, it shall be submitted to the wig maker for modification until it is appropriate.

 

After the performance, the unused wigs should be washed, then turned over and stored in airtight plastic bags, and labeled with the information such as play, role, manufacturer and size.

 

If the wig is dry or the head cap is damaged, the hair will be cut and remade into another wig or false beard.

 

u Modern Performing Arts-Other Performing Arts

 

Some performance activities that need to wear special clothes, such as clown performance, fashion model show, singer singing, etc., also need to use curly wigs. 

 

Other non-professional performances, such as masquerade parties and cosplay, also often use curly wigs.

 

² Clown

 

The clown's curly lace front wigs are mostly colorful. Although this kind of hair style is not impossible to shape with real hair, it will hurt the hair if it is often permed or dyed, and it may cause inconvenience if it is still maintained in daily life. So curly wigs become a necessity for clowns.

² Singer Singing

 

In recent years, singers pay attention to image packaging, hair style is an important part of the image, so curly wig is also one of the common costumes of many singers.

 

Especially when the concert is held, many sets of clothes will be changed in a short time to match different songs, so different curly wigs will be used to match different images, saving the time of changing hair styles.

 

² Fashion Model

 

In fashion shows, fashion models often use hairstyles to match the clothes they wear when they display their clothes on catwalks, and they need to change their image in a short time. And some hairstyles need to use wigs or completely replace real hair with wigs.

 

² Cosplay

 

Some individuals or businesses will play certain roles for specific reasons.

 

For example, curly lace wigs are often used to participate in masquerade parties, publicity activities, such as commercial publicity playing mascots, God of wealth, election publicity, etc. for better visual effect and convenient hairstyle change.

 

Wigs are part of costume for masquerade parties. In addition to the imitation hair of different colors, there are also some wigs made of flashing foil, which are often seen during Halloween.　

 Cosplay activity is a kind of role-playing, playing ACG (animation, comics, games) characters.

 

The hair color of many ACG characters is different from the natural hair color of human beings. The players can't play the role without changing the color of their own hair at all, and they generally don't play only one role. If they change the color of their hair with dying, it's not only inconvenient, but also harmful to the hair quality.

 

In addition, the length of the player's own hair may not be the same as the character. Therefore, players often wear wigs to make the shape more realistic, and the spirit of the role they play and avoid the inconvenience of dyeing hair.

 

In fact, wigs can be used in different places, bringing us convenience in life and health.
