Going on Holiday with a Wig
Planning a beach holiday with a wig? Discover expert tips, including beach tips from Beech Grove Wig Boutique, to keep your wig looking perfect in the sun, sea and sand. Ideal advice for chemotherapy wigs and hair loss solutions in the North East of England.
🌴 Enjoy the Beach in Confidence
If you’re living with hair loss due to chemotherapy, alopecia or thinning hair, a holiday in the sun can still be a time to feel confident and carefree. At Beech Grove Wig Boutique, we understand the unique needs of our clients, offering personalised advice, including beach tips from Beech Grove Wig Boutique, to help you relax and feel fabulous—wig and all!
👱♀️ 1. Choose a Wig That’s Holiday-Ready
For travel and beach use, synthetic wigs—especially those made with Raquel Welch’s Tru2Life® heat-friendly fibres—are ideal. These fibres maintain their shape, resist frizz, and mimic natural hair beautifully, even in humid or breezy conditions.
Prefer something light and breathable? Ask us about lace front and monofilament cap constructions—they’re perfect for warm weather and long days out. With beach tips from Beech Grove Wig Boutique in mind, you can find just the right style.
Top Tip: Bring a shorter, easy-care wig for beach days. It’s practical, low-maintenance and less likely to tangle.
🧳 2. Pack Smart – Wig Essentials for Your Suitcase
Keep your wig looking fresh on holiday with a compact care kit:
- Wig shampoo & conditioner
- Leave-in detangling spray
- Wide-tooth comb or wig brush
- Collapsible wig stand
- Silk or satin storage bag
Don’t forget your wig grip band or double-sided wig tape for extra security on breezy days!
👒 3. Use Stylish Accessories for Sun & Security
Protect your wig and elevate your beach look with accessories:
- Wide-brimmed sun hats or breathable scarves shield against UV damage
- Silk turbans or bamboo headwear offer a lightweight, non-wig option for hotter days
- Headbands and clips can help secure your wig in place, even on windy walks along the shore
💡 Ask during your consultation about our beautiful range of summer headwear—perfect for beach days or poolside lounging.
🌊 4. Should You Swim in Your Wig?
In short: no. Chlorine and saltwater can damage both synthetic and human hair wigs. Instead, opt for:
- A stylish swim turban
- A wide-brimmed hat and cute sunglasses combo
- Going natural or wearing a headscarf if you feel comfortable
- An old wig or an inexpensive one you don’t mind reducing the lifespan of.

✈️ 5. Travel Light, Travel Confidently
When flying, it’s best to wear your wig or pack it in your hand luggage in a silk bag or wig box to avoid loss or damage. When considering Beach Tips from Beech Grove Wig Boutique, many clients bring a second wig for dressing up in the evening.
