Ordering a custom wig is easier when every important detail is decided before production begins. A clear specification helps the maker understand the look you want, reduces avoidable revisions, and gives you a more accurate quote.
This guide explains the seven decisions to make before ordering a custom human hair wig, plus the BONANZA made-to-order process and a practical checklist you can use when sending your requirements.
Before You Order: Define the Result You Want
Start with the finished look, not only a list of technical terms. Think about where you plan to wear the wig, how often you want to restyle it, your preferred parting, and how much daily preparation feels comfortable.
Reference photos are especially useful. Choose clear front, side, and back views when possible. If you like the color from one photo and the cut from another, label each reference so the request is easy to understand.
1. Choose the Lace Area
The lace area affects the construction and the styling space at the front or around the cap. BONANZA's current made-to-order product offers seven lace selections: 2x6 Lace, 4x4 Lace, 5x5 Lace, 13x4 Lace, 13x6 Lace, 360 Lace, and Full Lace.
A smaller closure can keep the parting area focused, while a larger lace area may offer more styling flexibility. The right choice depends on your preferred hairstyle, parting position, and comfort expectations. If you are comparing frontal sizes, read our 13x4 vs 13x6 lace wig guide.
2. Select the Hair Texture
Choose the texture that matches your intended finished style. Current custom requests can include straight, body wave, water wave, deep wave, loose wave, curly, kinky curly, or a carefully reviewed reference style.
Be specific about whether you want the wig to arrive in its natural texture or with a finished cut and style. Two buyers can request the same texture but expect very different final results, so photos and written notes should work together.
3. Confirm Length and Density
Length and density should be considered together. The same density can appear different on a short bob and a long layered style. Describe where you want the hair to fall, the amount of fullness you prefer, and whether the finished style includes layers or curls.
If you are still deciding, our guide to choosing wig length and density explains how these two specifications affect the overall look.
4. Decide the Hair Color
Color requests need more detail than a simple name such as brown or blonde. Share a reference image under clear lighting and identify the important features: base color, highlights, face-framing sections, roots, ombre placement, or an all-over shade.
Screen colors and lighting can change how a shade appears, so the final color specification should be confirmed before production. Complex color work can also affect the final quote.
5. Confirm Cap Size and Construction
A custom wig should be based on accurate cap information. Provide the requested measurements carefully and confirm the wearing features you need. Available custom details can include a glueless cap, adjustable band, elastic band, or combs, depending on the confirmed design. All BONANZA lace wigs are supplied with uncut lace. The customer must trim the lace before wearing. Inspect the wig before cutting or altering it.
Do not estimate measurements from another person's wig. Use the same measuring method for every dimension and keep the tape comfortably close to the head without pulling it too tight.
6. Define the Parting and Final Styling
Specify whether you prefer a middle part, left part, right part, free part, or another arrangement supported by the selected construction. Then describe the final finish: bob cut, layers, curls, baby hair, a pre-plucked hairline, or styling based on your reference.
This is also the right moment to explain your normal routine. A buyer who wants a standard finish may need different details from someone who plans to customize the unit after delivery.
7. Confirm the Quote and Production Details
BONANZA accepts one-piece custom orders. The listed $99 amount on the custom product page is a custom-order deposit, not the final full wig price. The final quote depends on the confirmed length, lace area, density, color work, cap details, and styling requirements.
Before production, make sure the final specification, total quote, and expected production time have been confirmed. Avoid relying on assumptions or an example photo alone.
