Sometimes we do not feel like messing with our own hair. In times like this we may use wigs. How do we take care of them so they always look their best? This post will give you some simple steps for basic wig care.
The first tip is beware, too much washing can damage your wig. However, the wig is still no different than real hair; it needs to be washed some. Wigs should be washed by hand in a sink. Use a small amount of shampoo, and be sure to use cool water. Allow the wig to soak a little, then gently comb through. You can then rinse and apply conditioner. Comb (NO BRUSHES EVER!) the conditioner through and rinse again. Then let it air dry. You are under no circumstances to use heat. So do not use hot water or any kind of blow dryer, or you risk the wig losing its shape or simply destroying it altogether. If it is necessary to use hair care tools to restyle, be sure to lose the lowest settings. Hair dryers should be set on cool.
When storing your wig, you need a wig stand. Do not just toss it in a dresser somewhere. It needs to be on a wig stand so it does not tangle or lose its shape or style. Keep it away from overly hot areas and any place that is prone to excess dust.
When wearing your wigs, do not brush the hair. You need to use a wide tooth comb or your fingers to get the desired effects.
Above is a video that will elaborate on what I have shared with you in this post.
