However, the damaged degree of wigs can be alleviated to a certain extent, which requires you to spend more attention on the care of wigs. The maintenance and repair of can save you a lot of money on the purchase of wigs. In this blog, we'll offer you some tips on how to get your wig as natural as possible to the way it was when you bought it.
1.Avoid tangles
Whether you're using a wig or storing it, you need to avoid tangles. Knotting can destroy the wig's shape and hair condition. It is necessary for you to comb the wig with your fingers or with a wide-toothed comb before wearing it. Doing so can ensure that the wig is supple and can avoid knots to a certain extent. Also, if you find the knot difficult to untie during combing, you can spray some water on your hair, which will help a lot.
2.Warm water to clean
When the wig needs to be cleaned after use, the water temperature should be strictly controlled. Whether the water temperature is too low or too high will affect the wig quality. 15-30 degrees is the most suitable water temperature because it not only can ensure the strength of wig cleaning, but also can avoid excessive temperature damage hair. It is also necessary to use a gentle shampoo, which will make your wig smoother during the cleaning process. A small detail you need to pay attention to here is to be gentle during the cleaning process and remember to dry with a towel after cleaning instead of wring out it.
3.Care products
When it comes to wig care, you should pay the same attention to wig care as your natural hair. Only if the wig is properly maintained can its service life be guaranteed. Warm water and a mild conditioner can make your wig look softer and silky.
Place your wig on 15-30 degree water, then add some mild conditioner to make your wig absorb the nutrients of the conditioner. When the wig is warm, take it out and let it dry. In addition, we recommend using other hair products such as olive oil during this period, which will help the wig retain moisture and make it smoother and silky. The wig is placed on the model's head, sprayed with olive oil and other hair care products, and combed back and forth with a wide-toothed comb to make the wig fully absorb nutrients.
4.Regular grooming
As mentioned in the previous content, to avoid knots in the wig , regular grooming is important. You need to be careful to control the amount of force used to groom the wig and avoid pulling it. If you're too rude, you'll ruin the wig's shape. We recommend that you use a wide tooth comb and your fingers to comb the wig. Too much time or too much use can cause a wig becomes tangled, so you need to brush it regularly to prolong its life.
5.Avoid excessive hair oil
Wig care is inseparable from the product, but it is not to say that the more products used, the better the wig . For example, if you don't want your wig to look oily, you can use less hair oil. If necessary, it's important to replace hair oil with a non-irritating conditioner. It doesn't make your wig look greasy and wet, which makes it look more natural. Here, we recommend you several essential oils for hair care: like olive oil serum ,mega growth serum , L'Uodais Hair Repair Oil Serum , Ogx Renewing Argan Oil ,Of Morocco Penetrating Treatment Oil and Hawaiian Silky 14-in-1.

How often you use conditioner depends on how often you wear a wig. Frequent use of hair products will not only fail to protect the wig, but will make the wig fade and darken over time, and even cause the wig to fall off.
6.Carefully packaging
Finally, after using the wig, it needs to be carefully stored. Improper storage can also have serious effects on wigs. We recommend shoe rack, model head, foam model head, wig box, fake hair bag and other tools to save, you can choose according to your own situation.
