Three golden care rules
1. Washing and care: gentleness is the only rule
Pretreatment: Use a wide-tooth comb to comb gently from the ends of the hair upwards, and spray some care spray when you encounter knots. Important tip: Never use a comb for curly hair! Fingers are the best styling tool
Choose the right product: Special wig shampoo is the best. If you don’t have it, use baby shampoo instead (whisper: PH5.5 is the most suitable)
Water temperature secret: 25℃ warm water is ideal, overheating will cause hair to become brittle
Washing and care tips: Soak instead of rubbing! Press gently like a silk pajamas, and avoid the hair net position with conditioner
Drying taboos: Wrap with a dry hair cap and press lightly when drying in the shade, and don’t follow the Douyin tutorial to blow with hot air from a hair dryer!
2. Styling: High temperature is the enemy
Correct posture: Spray anti-scalding spray after completely drying before styling
×Fatal mistake: Curling iron directly touches hair (especially synthetic fiber materials)
Styling tips: Use curlers to style before going to bed, and the hair will be naturally formed the next day without damaging it
3. Storage: Environment determines lifespan
• Dry and light-proof is the iron rule! It is recommended to hang it with a bracket for storage
• Business trip essentials: special breathable storage bag + moisture-proof bag
• First aid guide: Use a cold air hair dryer on low setting for 3 minutes immediately when it is damp
Hidden tips to extend the lifespan
Material determines fate: real human hair can be used for 2-3 years, synthetic fiber for about 1 year
Although the front lace style is delicate, it is more durable than ordinary styles if properly maintained
It is recommended to have 2 wigs for rotation every day, just like real hair needs a rest
Regular deep care: Use olive oil steam care once a month
Common misunderstandings warning
× Use a comb to manage curly hair
× Wear a wig to soak in a hot spring
× Directly style dry hair
× Long-term compression storage
Remember: The lifespan of a wig = 90% care + 10% quality! One of my guests is a stage actor who has used the same silk wig for 5 years. The secret is to perform a full set of care after each use. As long as you master these techniques, your human hair wigs, whether glue wigs or glueless wigs, will become more and more soulful with more use~
Finally, the key point: When the wig starts to dry and tangled, don't rush to throw it away! Try my "sandwich care method" - conditioner + warm towel wrap + hair care essential oil, which can extend the service life by at least half a year. I will share with you in detail the exclusive care formula for different materials in the next issue!
