Wig Help and Suggestions?

I plan on utilizing wigs to help me transition to natural. I've never worn wigs before and I'm wondering if there are some that are better than others, perhaps lighter weight, more comfortable, better fitting, or more natural looking? Links to websites or beauty supply store references (I live in south Florida, so shops in palm beach county, broward county, and northern Dade county are good locations) would be appreciated. TIA!

    I wear wigs but since everyone has their own preference hard to say. I wear synthetics but some people like natural because you can heat style it and ect. Natural is more expensive. I will say I am relunctant to order a wig ever again because it was one size fits all and it is too small. Plus the color I thought on the screen looked like subtle highlights is really massive. It looks way unnatural to me. People tend to think my wigs are my hair and I like that look. But some people ie my mom like that "there is no way that's your hair" wigs. She even has a blonde braided wig I hate. Anyway I suggest you go to a wig store and try on some wigs to see how they look on you. I need to find a new wig store because the one I have bought from before refused to let me try on one last time. The clerk said someone with hair like mine (between the lines she meant natural hair) had ripped a wig and when I "did something with my hair" I was welcome to come back. I havent been back and wont be
    Yes, it's real. No, you can't touch it. :wav:

    Oh my goodness, how rude of that clerk! Thanks so much for your tips and suggestions. I definitely want a wig that could pass for my actual hair. I think I want to try a textured wig.
