Caring Secrets For Human Hair Wigs
When you are looking for a quality change without spending a small fortune at the beauty salon, wigs may be your best chance to achieve it. Even though they may be more expensive than synthetic fiber, human hair wigs can give your new look a very natural appearance, no matter what color or what style you choose. But, because of the quality of this kind of wig, they also require just as much good care as your natural hair would.
First of all, if you are going to being wearing your wig on a daily basis, it would be a wise idea to purchase one with a comfortable cap inside of it. The best of caps on the market today is the lace cap. They are made for undetectable extended wear, and offer seamless blending at the front and along the perimeter of the head. The lace itself is a tinted, transparent material that blends into the hairline for a perfect finish.
When wearing human hair wigs, the best thing you can do for their continued quality is to be sure that your own hair is clean before you put them on. If your hair is oily, the oil will transfer to the human hair wigs very quickly, and destroy its sheen. Be sure that the cap underneath the wigs is also as clean as it can be.
Do not wash wigs every day, human hair wigs can be worn for a maximum of six times between washings, as long as your hair is clean. If it begins to look oily or dirty, then wash it. Always remove the tangles from wigs before washing by using a wig pick for curly hair or a wig brush for straight hair. Comb and brush through the tangles very carefully so that you do not separate them from the cap.
Fill a sink with lukewarm water and a handful of wig shampoo. Let the wig soak in the soapy water for about five minutes, then remove, squeeze out the excess water. Empty the sink, and rinse the wig out well in lukewarm water. Pour some wig shampoo in your hand and gently massage it into the wig, then rinse it well in lukewarm water.
Pour some wig conditioner in your hand, following the product’s directions carefully. Massage it into the wig and let stand for five minutes, then rinse in lukewarm water, squeezing out any excess water. Place the wig inside of a towel and blot it gently to towel dry. You can then place it on a wig stand to dry, or gently blow dry on low settings.
You can then style it using hot rollers, Velcro rollers and curling irons very carefully. Set the look with a wig spray or very light hairspray. Never comb, brush or set a wet wig, ever. You can substitute shampoos for colored hair as well as a mild conditioner. You can also use the washings to check for loose hairs that may need to be repaired.
Using wigs to change your look can be a quick and versatile addition to your own personal style. With proper care, they can last a very long time, and with a high quality product, you can achieve a wide variety of looks with just one product. As long as you use all of your styling tools carefully, and follow the above tips, your new look will be limited only by your imagination.
