Wig care and maintenance
You will receive your wig in a box with silk fabric. Comb and wig caps are included (1 pack with 2 caps).
We recommend that you store your wig in our wig box, but it’s important that you do not remove the paper inside the wig, since it’s contributing to the wig maintaining its shape and style. The best option would be to store the wig on a mannequin head to prevent any unnecessary wig damage to the lace or the silk top.
In case you have bought a lace front wig and you intend to cut off the lace, make sure to be very careful and have at least 1 cm of spare space. Guide on how to cut a lace front wig.
Please note: We do not take any responsibility for any missed cuts or mistakes.
We offer a precut service for free. Feel free to contact us if that is something you prefer.
If you style your wig, use the lowest temperature setting possible with a heat protection spray. We recommend a maximum of 200 Celcius to prolong the lifespan of the wig.
- Do not iron your hair after applying oil, it will fry your hair!
- Do not bath, swim or sunbath with your wig.
Dying and coloring your wig on your own is involved with significant risks and you might end up damaging your wig. Therefore, we recommend you reach out to a professional. Please note: We do not take responsibility for any coloring failure.
You will need to wash your wig occasionally. Below you’ll find our step-by-step guide on how to wash you wig:
- Brush your wig carefully with the comb that is included in the box. Start brushing from the ends and work towards the roots to minimize shedding and tangling.
- When rinsing, shampooing and conditioning, be aware that you should hold the wig at it´s ´scalp´, so the water runs in the same direction as the hair.
- Rinse your wig gently in lukewarm water. Be thorough and do not rub it.
- Use a decent amount of shampoo. Be gentle and rinse it out with lukewarm water.
- Use a generous amount of conditioner. Leave the conditioner in the hair for approximately 5 minutes or longer. Do NOT put conditioner on the scalp´ or the roots since it can cause shedding.
- Rinse with lukewarm water, proceed by turning the water cold for the last 10 seconds if you want extra shine.
- Place your wig on a towel and dab it gently. Do not wring the hair!
- The wig needs to be air dried. Do not iron it while it´s wet, we recommend that you don´t blow dry it!
- We highly recommend that you get a mannequin head to store your wig on. This will prevent the scalp and the shape of the wig from getting damaged. It’s possible to buy a mannequin head made of flamingo very cheap.
