Caring for Synthetic Wigs

General Care

For best results, only use products specifically made for synthetic wigs.
Use fingers or a wide tooth comb for styling. Straight styles can be brushed occasionally. A comb is easier on the fibers.
A spray conditioner once a week and after every shampoo will keep your wig fibers supple and looking their best.
How often you wash your wig is up to you. Like a fine fabric that has to be washed by hand, it depends how often you wear it and whether or not it needs to be deodorized.
Be careful not to allow anything with heat to touch synthetic hair. For example: hairdryers or curling irons. Also, be careful checking on food in your oven, if you get too close it could cause damage to the fibers.

To wash your wig, mix about one teaspoon of shampoo in cool water.
Bathe your wig in the soapy water. Allow it to soak for a few minutes.
Rinse with clean cool water. You may need to rinse twice to get out all the shampoo.
Gently pat dry with a towel. Do not comb or brush while wet!
Spray with conditioner lightly and place over a plastic wig stand to dry. The stand will allow air to pass through your wig while maintaining its original size and shape. If you wash it in the evening, it will be dry by morning.
Once your wig is dry, gently comb to desired style.
If you have a petite wig do not allow it to dry on a Styrofoam head, as it may stretch the cap.
