CARING FOR A HUMAN HAIR OR BLENDED HAIR WIG

The care instructions are the same for wigs fully made of human hair and wigs that are a blend of human hair and synthetic fibers.

Most wigs containing human hair are chemically processed to give them a natural appearance with unique color variations, it’s critical that you use the appropriate hair care products. Both the shampoo and conditioner should be formulated specifically for either chemically processed human hair or human hair wigs.

Caring for your lace wig is not difficult. However, it does require routine maintenance for lasting results. Follow these instructions to care and optimize the lifetime and wear of your Lace Unit Wig:

1. Keep the hair clean. When dirt and sweat accumulate, hair tangles. Too much leave-in conditioners and other hair care products will create a build up on the hair and will cause it to tangle faster. We suggest that you wash the hair at least every other week with warm or cold water.

2. Brush and detangle hair before applying shampoo. When combing or brushing your lace wig, do not get the comb/brush too close to the fragile lace because you could tear the lace by combing or brushing too harshly.

3. Before washing the hair, spray mixture of conditioner and water and brush the hair from bottom up. Gradually wet the hair down and brush it gently before you completely wash the hair. If the hair is very dry and a lot of water is added at once, hair will swell up like sponge and tangle! Therefore, it is important to gradually wet the hair and brush it.

4. After wetting the hair, add shampoo and wash thoroughly. Be sure to wash and brush the hair in one direction. Rinse the hair completely with water and towel dry. It is best to air dry the hair.

5. When washing your Lace Wig, do not pile the hair together, as this creates tangles. Instead, gently shampoo the hair in one direction only, by holding the cap and hair tightly at the top to avoid any hair from slipping or shedding at the base. Gently stoke the hair while applying the shampoo. Follow with the conditioner in the same manner.

6. After shampooing and conditioning your Lace Wig, it is very important that you minimize combing while wet. Let it completely dry before the last step: SEALING YOUR KNOTS!

7. Now that your lace wig is completely DRY, turn it inside out and place the wig on a wig mannequin. Spray the inside of the cap lightly standing 6 to 8 inches away with an acrylic sealer. It is important that you do not over-spray by simply following the directions on the back of the sealer that you purchase. DO NOT SPRAY SEALER ON THE HAIR. If the spray is visible on the hair, too much has been used. Let the wig dry for 15 to 30 minutes. Make sure the cap is completely dry before removing the lace wig.

  • STYLING & DAILY MAINTENANCE
  • An advantage of Remy human hair is that you can style it like you normally would your own hair. You can brush, comb, blow dry, curl with curling iron, straighten with a flat iron and style it any way you want.

 

  • For the curly/wavy textured hair, apply some leave-in conditioners so that the hair is soft and moist. Remember not to put too much otherwise there will be a build up and make the hair feel too heavy.

 

  • You can also make a leave-in conditioner at home by diluting conditioner (10%) with water (90%). Apply the mixture lightly onto your hair and finger comb (or use a wide tooth comb) the hair from the end to the top near the scalp.

 

  • Make couple of big braids when going to sleep, swim, or exercise (please untangle the hair before making the braids).

 

  • Sleep in a Satin Bonnet or Head Scarf.

 

  • NEVER SLEEP ON WET HAIR!
  • Make sure the hair is completely dry before going to bed.

 

  • When swimming, always wear a cap to prevent prolong exposure to chlorine or salt water which causes the hair to tangle. Always wash the hair right away with shampoo and conditioner after swimming in both types of water. When going to the spa, the hair should be brushed out completely and should be wrapped in a cold wet towel.

 

  • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TINT, COLOR, PERM OR DO ANY EXTRA CHEMICAL PROCESSES because it has already been treated. Please be extra careful with blonde and other light colored hair. They are more chemically processed than the dark hair. We are not be responsible for the outcome.
