How To Care For A Wig

How, then, do you maintain a wig? There are a variety of products that you can use. There are synthetic conditioners. We have our luster sprays which give you the nice shine.

We have our regular shampoos. You can use a variety of good quality shampoos. It is essential though, when you're supplying or fitting a human hair wig, to bear in mind that you do not scrunch the hair up too much.

You keep it nice and smooth. You wash it very carefully and then you apply human hair conditioner. This is then combed through and applied through the hair, making sure that you go right through all the different sections of the hair, combing it in very carefully, making sure that you do it.

Essentially, you should turn the wig inside out. Make sure that you have no strands left underneath. Put your conditioner on.

Having done that, you then pop it on your head and comb it into style. You can then, if it's human hair, blow style it or if you choose to, you can put it on a wig stand and work on it that way. You can roll it.

You can curl it. You can do many things. With synthetics, there's a different set of rules.

There's a synthetic conditioner. There's the product to maintain it. Heat - excessive heat will damage a wig.

If you go near a hot oven, it can actually distort the wig and make it look fuzzy. One of the things about synthetic wigs is that you have to be careful about when you rub up against cushions because that can tend to make the fiber go. But there is only a limited life with synthetic wigs.

Before the fiber actually becomes unwearable by appearance, the wig itself will not collapse. It will give you quite a lot of wear. You don't have to wear the wigs all day, every day, unless you are an alopecia case.

In which case, that's a different matter because this is your head of hair to meet the people and to present yourself. But always follow the instructions given with wigs. Look after them carefully.

Don't try to do things you're not capable of. Always refer to a professional that will guide you. And that is how you maintain the wig. .
