How To Sell Your Human Hair Wig Through DIY

Do you have a human hair wig or topper that you no longer reach for but know it’s in great condition and there is still so much life left in it? Perhaps you found a hair piece that suited you better or maybe this specific hair piece just no longer feels like you anymore.

Maybe you think this wig or hair topper will just have to be stored away forever because you can’t fathom throwing it away but you would also hate to see it go to waste. Well, we’re here to tell you that you can in fact sell your hair piece from the comfort of your home and earn some extra cash! 

We are going over how to sell your human hair wig or topper using our DIY platform from our resale lightly worn section and we’ll be discussing the best tips and strategies to help sell your pieces. 

For our DIY option, you are essentially creating your own listing to add to the Silk or Lace website. We have an easy and simple application form where you add your own photos and all of the necessary information about your hair piece. Once approved, the listing will automatically upload to the website for potential buyers to view and purchase! 

The biggest key to creating a great DIY listing is to have your hair pieces camera ready - this means washing and styling the hair before taking photos and videos. Think of your hair piece as the star of the show; you want the best representation for potential buyers to view so a good hair spa day is perfect to ensure your wig or hair topper looks good. 

The second biggest key is to make sure your photos are high quality! This means crisp, non-blurry images with good lighting and a clean, simple background. If you’re not sure what photos to add, don’t worry we got you covered. Our DIY application form has example photos and video tutorials to show you the best angles to shoot your hair pieces in. 

The main focus is that the star of the show (your wig or hair topper) needs to be completely visible. Pro tip: add different lighting (indoor and outdoor) to showcase the color of your hair piece as accurately as possible. 

In the application form, we’ve also included additional optional questions you can answer to enhance your DIY listing. By providing as much helpful information for potential buyers to reference, you’ll have better chances of your hair piece selling! 

One of the best parts about selling through our DIY platform is that you have all the control. Once the listing is approved, you can adjust pricing at any time and check the status of your hair piece through your account. The last step is to have your wig or hair topper ready to go in the case that someone purchases it. We will send over a shipping label and you’ll have three business days to send it to the customer. 

And it is truly just as simple as that! Selling your hair piece not only allows you to get money back from the investment you made, but it also helps promote sustainability and provides a second life for your wig or hair topper. You never know someone might be looking for exactly what didn’t end up working for you!
