Human Hair Care

We Recommend Washing Your Alternative Hair Every 6-8 Wears

IMPORTANT NOTES

• We do NOT recommend coloring or chemically altering alternative hair
• We recommend performing a check was on all human hair systems within 10 days of receipt

CHECK WASH

• Before washing your human hair wig or hairpiece, gently remove any tangles using your Wide Tooth Comb
• Wet hair completely using cool running water, allowing the water to flow in the direction of the fibers
• Do NOT soak your wig or topper
• Comb through hair with your fingers several times
• If no signs of tangling or matting occur, continue to cleanse and condition while checking for excessive tangling as you go
• If you DO notice excessive tangling or matting, it may be a sign of inversion
• If this occurs, please contact us at support@wigstudio1.com immediately
• Tangling or matting that occurs after months of wear is due to improper care

CLEANSE & CONDITION

• Before washing your human hair wig or hairpiece, gently remove any tangles using your Wide Tooth Comb
• Wet hair completely using cool running water, allowing the water to flow in the direction of the fibers
• Do NOT soak your wig or topper
• Gently lather the hair with a small amount of shampoo specifically formulated for alternative human hair, while making sure that the water is traveling in the same direction as the fibers
• DO NOT rub hair as this may cause tangling
• Rinse thoroughly in cool running water until the water runs clear
• Apply conditioner specifically formulated for alternative hair, avoiding the base of the wig or hairpiece (applying conditioner to the base/cap may weaken the knots)
• Using your fingers, work conditioner through mid-lengths and ends for 3-5 minutes
• Rinse thoroughly in cool running water until the water runs clear

DRY & STYLE

• Wrap wig or hairpiece in a towel and gently pat to remove excess water
• Gently remove any tangles using your Wide Tooth Comb
• Allow cap to dry completely before wearing, storing, displaying, or applying to a canvas block head for styling

STYLING

• For styling, apply wig or topper to a canvas block head
• Spray a heat protectant lightly on the hair, avoiding the base and working down toward the ends
• Starting at nape, work in 2" sections and blow dry each section completely
• Use medium heat on full power to blow dry hair
• Use the "cool shot" button to lock in style
• Human hair must be dried and styled after washing. Air-drying will leave the hair ‘un-polished’ and can trap water in the hair causing frizzing

TIPS

• Use professional grade heat styling tools with digital temperature settings to control heat
• Use no higher than 350° F to help maintain the integrity of the hair
