Caring for your short hair wig is important to maintain its quality and longevity. Here are some tips on how to care for your wig:
-
Brushing: Before washing, gently brush your wig with a wide-tooth comb or a wig brush to remove any tangles or knots. Always start from the bottom and work your way up to avoid damaging the hair strands.
-
Washing: Fill a basin with cool water and add a small amount of wig shampoo. Place the wig in the water and swirl it around for a few minutes. Avoid rubbing or twisting the wig. Rinse the wig thoroughly with cool water until all the shampoo is removed.
-
Conditioning: Apply a small amount of wig conditioner to the hair, avoiding the roots. Leave it on for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly with cool water.
-
Drying: Gently blot the wig with a towel to remove excess water. Avoid wringing or twisting the wig. Place the wig on a wig stand or a mannequin head to air dry. Do not use a hair dryer or any other heat source to dry the wig.
-
Styling: Once the wig is dry, you can style it using a wig brush or a wide-tooth comb. Avoid using regular hair styling products on your wig, as they can damage the strands. Instead, use wig styling products that are specifically designed for human hair wigs.
-
Storage: When you are not wearing your wig, store it in a wig bag, on a wig stand or a mannequin head to maintain its shape. If you are traveling, store the wig in a protective case or a wig box.
-
Maintenance: Depending on how often you wear your wig, you may need to wash it every 2-4 weeks. If you notice any damage or wear and tear on your wig, take it to a professional wig stylist for repair or maintenance.
By following these tips, you can keep your short hair wig looking beautiful and natural for a long time. Remember to always handle your wig gently and with care to avoid damaging the strands.
