Our wigs made from synthetic use the latest simultaed hair strands and, when properly
cared for, will give you plenty of enjoyable wear. Just follow the instructions below to
get the maximum life-span and performance from your wig.
Washing
Synthetic wigs should be washed in cool water with a mild shampoo and conditioner.
(Using conditioner is highly recommended to reduce tangling.) Do not scrub the wig, just
swish it from side to side and dunk it up and down. Wigs should be hung to dry.
(Synthetic wigs may also be set when wet. See Styling below.)
Once dry, spray sheen or detangling spray onto the wig and comb or brush depending on
the type of wig you have (See Combing and Brushing below).
Setting
Synthetic hair wigs can be set quite easily by following these instructions:
After washing, comb the hair (as instructed below) then set in rollers with rolling
papers and setting lotion
Put the wig under a sitting hair drier on low heat for 40 to 50 minutes. If you do not
have access to a sitting drier, the wig may be left on a wig stand or styrofoam head
overnight or until completely dried.
Once dry, take out the rollers and style the wig as desired.
Styling
HOT TOOLS MAY NOT BE USED ON SYNTHETIC WIGS. Hot blow driers, curling irons, flat irons
and similar tools will melt the synthetic hair strands and ruin the wig. The only
exception is use of a clothing steamer. Synthetic hair may be straightened by placing
the wig on a wig stand, steaming the hair with a clothing steamer while combing the hair
down.
If wig hair gets frizzy, try any sheen spray or wig spray to calm the frizziness and
then comb. If not, wash then set with setting lotion to get the frizziness out. When
wigs are tangled, use any detangling or sheen spray then comb the hair.
Combing and Brushing
Comb or brush your wig using the following guidelines*:
Length Style Style With
Short Straight / Wavy Any combs or brushes
Short Curly Wide-toothed comb or brush out with fingers
Chin Length Straight Any combs or brushes
Chin Length Curly / Wavy Wide-toothed comb or brush out with fingers
Shoulder Length Straight Any combs or brushes
Shoulder Length Curly / Wavy Wide-toothed comb
Long / Very Long Straight / Wavy Wide-toothed comb
Long / Very Long Curly Brush out with fingers
* Important Note: Spiral curl and dreadlock wigs should not be combed or brushed in any
way, as this will undo the curls/dreads.
Hair Products
Any hair products can be used on wigs, such as hair spray, mousse, gel, etc. since the
wigs are washable and reusable.
Wig Storage
While wigs are not in use, they may be stored in a hair net and plastic bag or on a wig
stand, such as styrofoam head.
When traveling, a styled wig may be carried in a wig box to prevent flattening
