Wigs have become popular once again. They are so easy to use if you’re
looking for a quick and easy hair style. And because they come in some many
different styles, there’s sure to be something out there for everyone.

Proper wig maintenance will improve your wig’s appearance and longevity.
And wig maintenance is not very expensive; it just requires a little bit of
time and effort. Here are some important steps to follow.
1) Wig maintenance begins with detangling. First, gently brush out your wig
to remove any tangles (unless the wig is extremely curly and/or it came with
a tag telling you that it shouldn't be brushed). Most of the longer styles
will become quite matted towards the back, and it may be necessary to
separate the tangled strands gently with your fingers. Apply Simply Stylin’
Light Silk Spray to aid in brushing and easy removal of any tangles. Because
it’s made of pure silicone, Simply Stylin’ is perfect for aiding in wig
maintenance without drying the hair.
If you have a synthetic hair wig, it is important to use combs and brushes
that are designed for use on synthetic wigs. If you are using a regular
hairbrush or comb, be sure it has the rubber tips at the end of each brush
bristle or tooth of the comb. This will prevent the fibers from splitting,
and keep the wig from looking fuzzy and dull before its time.
2) Shampooing your wig correctly is also an important part of proper wig
maintenance. When the wig is ready to be washed, fill the sink with about 2
quarts of cool water. Never use hot water, as this could relax the curl that
was set into the wig during the manufacturing process. Pour about 2 capfuls
of a gentle shampoo into the water and then submerge the wig. When the wig
is fully wet, swish it around for about a minute and then let soak for about
another minute.

3) Remove the wig and rinse in cold water until no suds remain. Then place
the wig on a bath towel to completely dry overnight. It is all right to blot
the wig with a towel, but don’t twist the wig or ring it out. You can use
your fingers to gently separate and arrange the strands as the wig is
drying, but don’t try to comb or brush the wig while still wet. The fibers
could be stretched to the breaking point.
