Burmese curly wigs and deep wave wigs are two of the most popular curly wig styles in recent years. For black women who love curly wigs, you might find it difficult to tell the difference between the two. Today, let's take a closer look at them, learn about their differences, and learn how to find the best one for ourselves.
Burmese Curly VS. Deep Wave Wig
1️⃣ Curls
Burmese wigs are particularly close to the naturally occurring 3B-3C hair texture of Black women. The curls are finer and tighter, with the kind of volume and bounce that comes from washing and drying naturally. The overall look is fuller, with added layers and a vibrant, full volume. As you walk, the curls gently sway with your steps, creating a confident, effortless, and natural beauty that exudes the feeling of "I'm not dressed up, but I'm just stunning." This is a bold, energetic look.
Big wigs are an elegant, refined style. Their thicker, looser curls create smooth, flowing waves, reminiscent of a delicate curling iron, but with a natural sheen. They lack the "fluffy tension" of Burmese wigs, but instead possess a soft, polished quality.
2️⃣ Hair Ends
Burmese curly wig
This wig has spiral curly ends. These spirals create a tight, springy "little spring" shape—each strand resembles a carefully wound spiral. Gently pinch a strand with your fingers to feel the curl's springback, and release it to quickly return to its original shape, preventing it from losing its shape.
Visually, this wig enhances the layered quality of the Burmese curly hair: the spiral ends add a dynamic detail to the already full curls. As you walk, the ends sway gently, resembling tiny spirals, adding a lively and energetic touch to the overall look.
Deep wave wig
The deep wave wig's ends tend to have a "natural, flowing, soft curve," without any artificial spiraling. The ends flow naturally, following the overall flow of the waves. Visually, this kind of hair tail makes the overall lines of the big waves more coherent: the transition from the big waves at the roots to the soft arcs at the ends of the hair is particularly natural, and the overall shape is more smooth and elegant.
3️⃣ Management Difficulty
Burmese curly wig: low management difficulty
Burmese curly wigs, crafted from the virgin human hair of young girls, have tighter spiral curls at the ends. This design yields wigs that are soft, smooth, and bouncy—effectively minimizing friction and tangling while greatly simplifying maintenance for wig wearers, particularly beginners.
Deep wave wig: moderate management difficulty
Deep wave wigs, characterized by their loose, flowing S-shaped waves, typically require slightly more attention than Burmese curly wigs due to the larger wave pattern. After each wear, they may develop minor tangles around the hairline or at the nape of the neck. A suitable choice for those with basic wig care experience who are willing to invest a little extra time.
4️⃣ Durability
Our Burmese curly wig and deep wave wig are real virgin human hair wigs; therefore, they both possess exceptional durability. Next, let's compare the subtle differences between the two in terms of durability in detail.
Burmese curly wig
The curls are tight and long-lasting, and even if worn for a long time, the curls remain defined and are not easy to become completely straight.
Deep wave wig
The curls are more dependent on care. If they are frequently pulled or neglected, the curls may gradually loosen.
Attention: Besides curls, the types are also a very vital factor in influencing the wig's lifespan. Half wig and glueless wigs in the Burmese curly wig collection and the Deep wave wig collection are highly recommended if you want a durable wig.
Burmese Curly And Deep Wave Wig, How To Choose?
When choosing between a Burmese Curly Wig and a Deep Wave Wig, the key isn't "which is better" but "which one better fits your lifestyle."
❤️ Consider Your Lifestyle
If you spend your days wandering the streets, visiting markets with friends, or simply prefer to project an independent, energetic attitude through your outfit, a Burmese Curly Wig is your perfect "aura partner." Its tight curves mimic those of natural 3B-3C curls, gently swaying with your steps as you walk, creating a casual yet eye-catching street style without any styling.
If you're someone who commutes to work, attends classes on campus, or frequently attends formal gatherings and dates, a wavy wig is a good choice. Its loose waves are smooth and shiny without looking exaggerated, and they create a professional, graceful, and gentle look.
❤️ Hair Care Habits
If you're pressed for time every morning or don't want to invest in hair care, the Burmese curly wig is a hassle-free choice. Its natural, long-lasting curls are tangle-resistant, saving you half an hour of styling time on busy mornings. As for the ends, simply apply a conditioning oil to the ends once or twice a week to maintain the elasticity of the spirals.
If you don't mind spending 10 minutes on care and fine-tuning your hairstyle, a deep wave wig will give you a complete sense of accomplishment.
❤️ Long-lasting Ability
If you're looking for a wig that can withstand frequent, long-term wear—say, daily use for months on end—a Burmese curly wig is a better choice. Its tight curls, with proper care, won't easily become straight or undone, even with frequent washing or wind, especially if they're made from high-quality virgin human hair.
A deep wave wig, on the other hand, is more suitable for flexible wear—its curls are less stable. After long-term, frequent wear, the ends may become straight due to friction, necessitating occasional re-curling with a low-temperature curling iron. On the other hand, if you like to change up your style frequently, a deep wave wig might be more suitable.
Final Words
For Black women, wigs offer a sense of freedom in our beauty. You don't have to be stuck in one style. You can have Burmese curls for streetwear or voluminous waves for work or a date. After all, true beauty isn't about staying fixed; it's about being able to adapt your look to your mood and the occasion.
