Q: Should I wash my wig before wearing it?
A: We recommend washing it the first time you take it out from the package. It is a personal choice if you mean you want to wash it every time before wearing it because that makes you feel more comfortable. Just keep in mind that the more often you washing your wig, the shorter the lifespan it has. A quick rinse versus a full shampoo and condition will do less harm to it if you can't stand to washing it.
Q: How often should I wash my lace wig?
A: We recommend Conditioner Only Washing 2-3 times a week. Some beauties choose to wash their wigs once per 1-2 weeks, it totally depends on your preference.
Q: What type of hair care products should I use?
A: Treat your human hair wig like your own hair. Use a good quality shampoo and conditioning products. In order to keep it soft and manageable, conditioning the hair wig is very important. We recommend using a deep conditioner on your virgin hair once per week, but avoid using oil or heavy styling products.
Q: Do I have to do anything special in the morning and at night?
A: Gently comb your hair from the ends towards your scalp every morning. It is always a good way to keep the longevity of the hair by starting from the ends keeps the pressure off the weft area.
When at night, if you have your wig sew-in, make sure the hair wig is completely dry before you go to bed so that I won't get matted. If you take it off at night, just put it on the wig stand/ mannequin to keep its shape. Rolling your hair in rods at night will maintain your curls and limit the amount of heat you have to use on your hair daily if you get a wavy or curly wig.
