Question

Regarding the kashrut of the wig - what is the definition of a kosher wig? If possible, please provide a detailed explanation regarding the type of SKIN, the parting, length, type of hair, etc.

Answer

Shalom 

It's difficult to specify without specific questions. 

The general rule in all this: A. It should be noticeable that the hair is covered with a covering and not like one's own hair.  

B. Like any garment, the wig should be modest and not loud, prominent, or attention-grabbing.

Therefore, regarding what you mentioned: transparent lace is forbidden, as it appears like hair. And in any form that appears to be hair.
