1. Use a Suitable Shampoo, Conditioner and Brush
When buying products to clean your wig, be aware that there are some that are specially designed for wigs. Traditional shampoos and conditioners contain a lot of chemicals that can damage the texture of your wig's hair, especially if it is synthetic.
In addition, the way you wash your natural hair and the way you wash your wig are different.
Here's what you need to do:
- First, soak the wig in shampoo and water, then comb the shampoo or conditioner through the wig with your wig brush.
- Next, rinse the wig with lukewarm water until all of the product is gone.
- Finally, comb the wig until it is tangle-free and leave it to air dry.
Remember that when washing your wig, you don't need to rub or massage it, just comb it!
2. Seek a Professional
When you need to style your wig, it is best to consult a professional, especially if you have only recently started wearing it. There are many salons that specialise in wig care and styling. Remember that if you cut your wig's hair, it will not grow back, which is why it is important to consult a professional, at least in the beginning. So don't hesitate to ask for help with this.
3. Keep Your Wig in a Safe Place
When you are not using your wig, the best way to store it is on a Styrofoam head or a wig stand designed specifically for this purpose. It is recommended that you cover it to prevent dust from accumulating. Also, avoid storing your wig in damp, dusty or excessively warm places. Instead, choose dry, well-ventilated areas.
4. Do Not Use Any Type of Spray on Your Wig
If you do, the hair on the wig may become tangled or greasy and difficult to style, especially if you use a lot of different products. A little spray is usually not a problem! But don't overdo it. This finishing spray is perfectly suited for this purpose.
5. Do Not Use Heat on Your Wig
When styling your wig, be aware that heat can really damage it. If you have a synthetic wig, be sure not to use too much heat. Also, be sure to read the instructions that come with your wig to find out how much heat you can use, if any.
6. Never Sleep or Shower with It On
Now that you know how to wash your wig properly, here's another tip: never shower with your wig on. It is also recommended that you remove it when it is raining heavily or, at the very least, protect it from the elements that could damage it. Also avoid sleeping with your wig on, so that the hair does not become tangled due to the movement of your head.
