Consumers opt for convenient, versatile products due to their busy lifestyles, and, thus, black women prefer to use wigs to look presentable in a short time instead of trying to style their naturally curly hair, which needs more time. Furthermore, people also prefer wigs and extensions for various other reasons, such as to protect their natural hair from exposure to heat & dirt, to look fashionable, or to flaunt a desired look.
