Vietnamese Human Hair Wigs South Africa
Vietnamese human hair is widely regarded as producing the silkiest, most glass-like straight texture available in human hair wigs. The hair originates from donors in Vietnam and is characterised by its naturally fine, smooth cuticle alignment — which gives it the reflective, high-shine finish known in the industry as a glass-hair effect. All Licious Hair Vietnamese wigs are 100% pure human hair.
Vietnamese hair takes particularly well to bone straight styling and holds a flat-ironed finish longer than most other origins. It is also highly responsive to colour treatments and can be lightened or toned without significant texture loss when done correctly.
What Makes Vietnamese Hair Different
Texture — Naturally fine and smooth at the cuticle level, Vietnamese hair produces a silkier finish than Brazilian or Peruvian hair in its natural state. The bone straight result is cleaner and more reflective.
Shine — The glass-hair finish is a direct result of the fine cuticle structure. Light reflects more uniformly off Vietnamese hair than coarser origins, giving it a premium, high-gloss appearance.
Heat response — Vietnamese hair holds a flat-iron finish exceptionally well. It can be straightened, curled, and styled with heat tools the same way natural hair can.
Longevity — With proper maintenance, a Vietnamese human hair wig can last 12 months or longer. Sulphate-free washing, heat protectant use, and proper storage all extend lifespan significantly.
All Vietnamese wigs ship from our Boksburg salon via The Courier Guy. R150 flat rate nationwide — Gauteng estimated 1–2 business days, Cape Town and Durban estimated 3–4 business days. All timeframes are estimated. Pay in 3 interest-free instalments with PayJustNow or Payflex.
Vietnamese Hair Wig Questions
What is Vietnamese human hair?
Vietnamese human hair is sourced from donors in Vietnam and is known for its naturally fine, smooth cuticle structure. It produces a silkier, more reflective finish than most other hair origins and is particularly prized for bone straight styling where a high-gloss, glass-hair effect is the goal.
Is Vietnamese hair better than Brazilian hair?
Neither is objectively better — they are different. Vietnamese hair is finer and silkier, making it the preferred choice for a sleek, straight, glass-hair finish. Brazilian hair has more natural body and volume, making it better suited for wavy and curly styles. The right choice depends on the look you want.
Can Vietnamese hair be coloured?
Yes — 100% Vietnamese human hair responds to colour treatments the same way natural hair does. It can be lightened, toned, and coloured. As with any human hair, chemical processing reduces the hair’s natural strength over time, so professional application and proper aftercare are recommended to maintain quality.
How do I maintain a Vietnamese hair wig?
Wash with a sulphate-free shampoo and follow with a moisturising conditioner. Apply a light heat protectant before flat-ironing. Store on a wig stand when not in use. Vietnamese hair’s fine cuticle makes it slightly more prone to tangling than coarser hair types — detangle gently from the ends up, never from the root down.
What lengths are Vietnamese wigs available in?
Vietnamese wigs in the Licious Hair range are available from 8 inches through to 20 inches. Check individual product listings for the exact lengths available in each unit, as length options vary by construction and style.
