Wig care?


Question Posted Thursday May 28 2009, 7:37 pm

I'm going to get a synthetic wig soon and it has some waves/curls in it.

I'm not really sure what I'd need to do and get to keep it looking good and not scraggly as some say would happen.

I know heat from curling irons, etc and products for human hair aren't recommend. But how would I add more volume? And what is a good shampoo to use?

I've already tried google.

I suggest that you should get a wig the has human hair as weird as that may sound but then you can do anything with it as long as you take care of it. Yes it may be a bit more pricy but don't you think its worth it?

i worked at this place that sold wigs so i had to take care of them all the time!

1. first, you have to buy special shampoo specifically for synthetic hair (i suggest alan thomas hair shampoo for synthetic hair).

2. always brush your wig with a wire brush before washing (regular brushes can ruin the hair).

3. add only about a spoonful of shampoo in a bowl of cold water (hot water also damages the synthetic material).

4. dunk the wig in the water for a minute or so.

5. gently squeeze the water out of the wig.

6. blot your wig with a paper towel (roughly toweling it will damage the hair).

7. place the wig back onto it's rack and wait for it to dry.
