Wigs help minimize the psychological consequences of different types of hair loss. They may reduce potential experiences of stigmatization, and improve social confidence and quality of life, besides enhancing self\u2010esteem and social adjustment. In dermatology, wigs may have a positive impact on the global treatment of patients suffering from alopecia as they offer an immediate and efficient cosmetic result. However, the medical literature on wigs is not extensive.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aims<\/jats:title><jats:p>This review aims to discuss synthetic wigs and nonsynthetic custom\u2010made hair systems, highlighting different hair fibers, foundations, various types of prosthesis, and the most common methods of attachments used to make wigs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The terms \u201cwigs\u201d, \u201chair\u201d AND \u201ccamouflage\u201d, \u201calopecia\u201d AND \u201ccamouflage\u201d, and \u201chair prosthesis\u201d were used to perform a literature search in MEDLINE through PubMed until April 8th, 2020.
