The right wig band width is a personal choice. For many women it is guided by their custom and community, and by how much of the sheitel they want the band to cover. Bostino bands come in 2″, 2.25″, 2.5″, 2.75″ and 3″, with Signature Classic Scuba also available in 3.5″ and 4″.
Why width matters
Many women wear a band over their sheitel as part of their custom of covering. For some, the width of the band is an important part of that custom, and some women will only wear a band of a certain width or wider. Every woman knows what is right for her, so we offer a range of widths to suit different customs and preferences.

How to choose your width
Start with your custom
If you or your community have a minimum width you prefer, start there. A wider band covers more of the head; a narrower band covers less.
Think about comfort
Every Bostino band has an adjustable cord, so whichever width you choose, you can set the fit to feel secure and comfortable all day.
Think about the fabric
Structured fabrics like scuba hold a wide band especially well, which is why Signature Classic Scuba is offered up to 4″. Softer fabrics like linen drape gently at any width.
Does the collection change how the width looks?
Yes. Signature bands are single-layer and unlined, with rolled, stitched edges that keep their outline crisp. Limited Edition bands are double-layered and fully lined, with clean, flat edges and no visible stitching. Both collections lie super flat on the wig.
