Synthetic hair is made from man-made fibers, often designed to mimic the look and feel of natural hair. It is commonly used in wigs, hair extensions, and hairpieces, providing a versatile option for those looking to change their hairstyle without altering their natural hair. This type of hair is available in various colors, textures, and styles, making it popular for fashion and costume purposes. Unlike natural hair, synthetic hair is typically more affordable and easier to maintain, but it may not withstand heat styling as well as human hair.
