How to wash your wig and how often

Can I wash my wig? We'll answer the question, "How often and how should I wash it?" In conclusion, wigs need to be washed regularly. In this article, we will introduce the basics of how to wash a wig and how often to wash it, so please read through it and enjoy a comfortable wig life.

1. How often to wash your wig

The appropriate frequency to wash your wig is once every two weeks if you use it every day. During the summer, your scalp tends to sweat more, so we recommend washing your hair about once a week. However, the more you wash your wig, the more it deteriorates, so unless it is very dirty or smelly, it is economical and hygienic to use a deodorizing spray on a daily basis to prevent it. If a wig is made with poor quality synthetic hair, the hair may become frizzy and unusable after just one wash, so when choosing a wig, we recommend choosing one that costs 5,000 yen or more.

The ideal temperature for shampooing is approximately 40 degrees. Please use lukewarm water. Also, if you use a hair dryer, use cold air and generally dry in the shade.

Shampooing and drying methods may vary depending on the wig, so if you are unsure, we recommend contacting the store where you purchased the wig.

If you're concerned about odors, lightly sprinkle some deodorant or deodorizer to deal with it.

2. Use shampoo specifically made for wigs

There are shampoos specifically made for wigs on the market. We recommend using a special shampoo to prevent problems. However, some manufacturers may not be able to use some shampoos (because they may damage the wig, etc.), so if you are concerned, we recommend contacting the manufacturer.
