Caring Tips for Your Wig
Getting wigs used to be difficult earlier on because they used to be made out of natural hair only, but now with synthetic materials being available, getting wigs with various styles has become very easy.
The modern wigs are easy to use and maintain too.
You might be using wigs for various reasons, due to loss of hair, medical reason or simply to change your hair style often.
We have given below few tips on how you can take care of your natural hair wigs.
Always buy specific products meant for maintenance of wigs only and do not look for cheaper alternatives for maintenance.
Even for synthetic hair wigs, the maintenance items are specially available.
Always take advice from the wig specialist and buy all products including brush, wig stand, comb, shampoo as well as conditioner from the wig shop and do not use the normal products that we use in daily life.
A simple hair brush if used on the wig can pull out the hair from its base and you stand to loose the wig.
Wigs with natural hair are not washed very often like we wash our normal hair.
Frequent washing reduces the lifespan of the wig.
All you need to do is to wash the wig after using it for over six times.
But then sufficient precaution should always be taken to wear a tight cap underneath the wig so that the oil secreted from your scalp does not seep into your wig and spoil it.
You always run the risk of hairs getting tangled in the wig.
It is important to detangle them all the time before washing.
Use a shampoo and conditioner that helps them remain straight without getting tangled and always use soft brush to brush neatly so that the roots are not damaged.
When you have invested a huge amount in acquiring a natural human hair wig, you would need to concentrate on maintaining it properly so that you are able to use it well.
It is always better to seek professional advice on the products and process to be used for maintaining long life of your wig.
