How to care for your wig
Wigs can last a long time with proper care. We will also show you what to do if your wig is in bad condition.
Use a special wig brush
When combing your wig, be sure to use a brush specifically designed for wigs. Unlike brushes for natural hair, wig-specific brushes are difficult to cut hair and have a wide gap. It has a gentle brushing cushion so you can comb it without damaging the wig's hair.
Use wig oil
When brushing, use wig oil or gel to make it easier to comb. Oils and gels make combing easier and prevent static electricity. In particular, long wigs tend to get tangled easily, so we recommend using items like this.
How to wash a wig
There are also some tips on how to wash your wig. Wash your clothes while keeping the following points in mind.
Comb from the tips of the hair
When combing a wig, comb from the tips of the hair, not the roots. Apply oil or gel to the ends of your hair and gradually loosen the tangles. If you can't get rid of stubborn tangles, soaking your clothes in water with laundry softener for about 30 minutes will help. However, the fabric softener may not be suitable for some materials, so try it out beforehand.
Use a shampoo made specifically for wigs
Because wigs are worn on the head, they can sometimes be misunderstood and treated like real hair. However, it is important to use shampoos and detergents made specifically for wigs. Brush your hair before washing, mix wig shampoo with water, and wash gently. Please do not use hot water and dry in the shade. Failure to follow these precautions may result in hair damage or shrinkage. When drying your wig, instead of using clothespins, spread it out on a towel or use a wig stand.
