Last updated: April 2026 dataFinished hairpieces — including full wigs, partial switches, false beards, eyebrows, and eyelashes — made from human hair, animal hair, or synthetic textile fibers serve the fashion, theatrical, medical, and personal-care markets. The material composition (human hair versus synthetic fiber) is the primary classification variable and can significantly affect the applicable duty rate. Finished wigs and hairpieces from China have been subject to Section 301 tariffs, prompting many importers to evaluate sourcing from alternative manufacturing hubs.

Yes, material composition is a key classification determinant. Wigs and hairpieces of human hair, animal hair, and synthetic textile fibers may each fall under different subheadings with distinct duty rates. Importers should specify the fiber content precisely on commercial invoices and ensure that classification reflects the predominant material.
False eyelashes and eyebrows made of human hair, animal hair, or textile materials are included within this heading alongside wigs and switches. However, false eyelashes made primarily of plastics or other non-textile materials may be classified elsewhere. The material composition and construction method should be reviewed carefully to confirm the correct heading.
