How To Wash Curly Human Hair Wig
Choose The Right Shampoo and Conditioner
When it comes to washing your human hair wig, it’s important to choose the right shampoo and conditioner. It is best to use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that is specifically designed for human hair wigs. This will help keep your wig looking its best and prevent it from becoming dry and brittle. Avoid any harsh detergents or shampoos that contain sulfates as they can strip the natural oils from the hair and cause damage. If you’re not sure what type of shampoo and conditioner to use, ask your wig specialist or consult with a professional stylist.
Pre-Wash Your Wig
Before you actually wash your wig, it is important to pre-wash it. This will help remove any dirt, sweat, product buildup, or other debris that might be on the hair. To pre-wash, fill a sink with lukewarm water and add a small amount of shampoo. Gently submerge the wig and massage the shampoo into the hair. This will help remove any dirt and debris from the wig. Rinse the wig in lukewarm water and then leave it to soak for a few minutes. This will help condition the hair and make it easier to manage when you are styling it.
Wash The Wig
Once you have pre-washed the wig, you can now begin to wash it. Fill the sink with lukewarm water and add a small amount of shampoo. Carefully submerge the wig and use your fingers to gently massage the shampoo into the hair. Once you have washed the wig, rinse it thoroughly in lukewarm water. Be sure to rinse out all of the shampoo, as any residue may cause the wig to become dry and brittle. Once you have rinsed the wig, you can now move onto the conditioning process.
Condition The Wig
After you have washed the wig, it is important to condition it. To condition the wig, use a moisturizing conditioner that is specifically designed for human hair wigs. Again, use lukewarm water to fill the sink and then submerge the wig. Apply the conditioner to the wig and massage it into the hair. Leave the conditioner on for around 10 minutes and then rinse it out thoroughly. When conditioning the wig, it is important to make sure that all of the conditioner is removed, as any residue may cause the wig to become dry and brittle.
Let The Wig Air Dry
Once you have washed and conditioned the wig, it is important to let it air dry. Do not attempt to blow dry the wig, as this may damage the hair. Instead, gently squeeze the excess water out of the wig and then let it air dry on a wig stand. This will help to maintain the shape of the wig and will also help to keep it looking its best. Once the wig is dry, you can now begin to style it.
