Follow this step-by-step guide on how to properly clean and care for your human hair wig at home!
Ensure to adhere to the frequency for washing your wig
Before you start wash your human hair wigs at home, it’s important to detangle the strands. To do this, start by brushing or combing your wig through with a wide-tooth comb to remove any tangles and knots. Be gentle when brushing as vigorous brushing can cause shedding and damage to the wig. Once you’ve detangled the wig, move on to step two.
The next step is to put your wig in a sink of lukewarm water with a small amount of mild shampoo and conditioner. Make sure the water is not too hot or too cold, as this can damage the hair.Gently wash and massage the wig to remove any dirt and buildup from the scalp and strands then allow it to soak for about 15 minutes. Then rinse your wig thoroughly with cold water until it runs clear.
After rinsing your wig thoroughly, it’s time to create a cleansing solution with cool water and a non-rinse shampoo or conditioner. Mix the two together and pour the solution onto the wig. Then use your fingertips to softly rub the solution all over the wig, taking care to concentrate on areas that may have more buildup. Finally, rinse off any excess shampoo from the wig by running lukewarm water over it and squeezing out any excess moisture.
After applying the cleansing solution and rinsing it out, follow up by running lukewarm water over the wig until all of the excess shampoo is gone. Pat the wig with a clean towel to soak up any extra moisture, then hang it upside down on a wig stand or other sturdy structure so that it can air dry. Avoid using a blowdryer or flat iron on wet hair, as this could cause damage to your wig’s fibers.
After the wig has been rinsed and towel dried, give it a bit of time to air dry completely before brushing it out. Be sure to use a wide-toothed comb that’s designed for wigs, as regular brushes can cause damage to the synthetic fibers. Once the wig is fully dry, you can brush it out gently from root to tip; this will help give your wig more volume and add shine.
When the wig is dry, you should also apply a few drops of wig oil or specialized wig conditioner. This will help moisturize the synthetic fibers and keep it feeling soft. Wig oils and conditioners are especially helpful if your wig has been exposed to sun or wind, as they can help replenish moisture in the strands. Finally, spray your human hair wigs with a gentle heat protectant before using any styling products on it. This will make sure that your wig won’t be damaged if you decide to use heat-based styling tools.
