How to take care of human hair wigs?
When the wig is in a lump, the following steps can be taken care of:
Pre-shampoo :
Before cleaning the wig, gently comb the wig with a comb and try to untie the knotted part.
Pay attention to the use of a wide tooth comb or special wig comb to avoid excessive pulling resulting in wig damage. 1
warm water soak :
Soak the wig in warm water for 5-10 minutes to make the wig softer and easier to comb.
Water temperature should not be too high, so as not to damage the wig material.
Cleaning and rinsing :
Use hair-specific shampoo to clean the wig, and be careful not to rub the hair in a messy way to prevent more tangles. Work your way down the hair from root to tip and try to untangle the strands.
After washing, rinse the wig with water to make sure there is no shampoo left. Can be flushed several times until the water is clear. 1
Use conditioner :
Apply the conditioner to the knotted area and wait for about 2 minutes before rinsing off.
Conditioner can effectively replace the nutrients lost by the hair, keeping the hair shiny and not easy to tangle. 2
carding and drying :
Gently comb the wig with a wide tooth comb or special wig comb to remove any remaining clumps. When combing from the bottom up, from the inside out, avoid excessive pulling.
Dry the wig in a cool, ventilated place. Do not expose it to the sun. When the wig is completely dry, gently comb it again to ensure that there are no clumps.
Regular cleaning and proper storage :
It is recommended to wash the wig once a week to keep it clean and soft.
When wearing human hair wigs, make sure that the wig fits closely with the scalp and hair to avoid agglomeration caused by friction.
Keep the wig in a special holder or box to avoid folding or curling it for a long time. At the same time, avoid placing wigs in damp, direct sunlight. 1
If the knot is so serious that it cannot be undone by itself, you can consider sending the wig to a professional wig shop to be repaired by professionals.
Through the above steps, you can effectively take care of the problem of the wig forming a lump, so that the wig restore flexibility and luster.
