How to Care for Your Heat Resistant Synthetic Wig
Heat resistant synthetic wigs are an excellent investment when you want to be able to style your wig using styling tools like a curler or a straightener. When you own synthetic wigs, they may be resilient, but you want to ensure you are taking the right steps to protect them. Following these proper care steps to help keep your wig looking great.
Comb Your Synthetic Wig Daily – Keep your wig tangle-free by brushing or combing it after each wear. Leaving knots in your wig can cause the fibers to hold on to the bend. Use your fingers or a special comb if your wig has a textured style. Be sure to avoid stretching or pulling the fibers, so you don’t ruin their fibers.
Only Use Products Made for Synthetic Wigs – To keep your wig looking great, you will want to use products for styling and keep it from drying out. There are special shampoos, conditioners, and styling products made specifically for heat resistant synthetic wigs.
Wash Using Cool Running Water – Gently wash your heat resistant synthetic wig using cool water only. Use your fingers to comb shampoo and conditioner, being careful not to tangle gently. After rinsing your wig, gently pat dry and comb the hairs to ensure no tangles remain and allow air to dry.
Use Heat Styling Tools Certified for Wigs – While you can use heat on your heat resistant synthetic wigs to style the hairs, you want to use tools made for wigs. These tools can help straighten and curl your hair at a lower temperature to help avoid burning the hair fibers. You can use non-heat curlers to add waves and curls without the risk of heart damage.
You will still need to be careful around heat with your heat resistant synthetic wig and take it off around heat sources such as a stove or oven.
Proper care for your wig is easy and will help you extend its lifespan. Be sure to comb your wig daily, be gentle, and only use products meant for your heat resistant synthetic wig to keep your wig looking its best.
