How do I care for my wig?

We recommend washing your wig or hairpiece every 6-8 wears. We suggest using a professional wig cleaning service nearby for beginners.


1. Before washing your wig or hairpiece, gently remove any tangles with a paddle brush or a wide-tooth comb.


2. Hold the wig or hairpiece under cool running water. Gently lather the hair with a small amount of shampoo while making sure that the hair is traveling in the same direction.

  • DO NOT rub hair as this may cause tangling.


3. Rinse thoroughly with cool water until water runs clear.


4. Wrap the wig or hairpiece in a towel and gently pat dry just enough to stop dripping.


5. Gently detangle hair using your fingertips.


6. Spray conditioning spray (3-5 pumps) keeping away from the base of the wig or hairpiece.


7. Allow the wig or hairpiece to air dry naturally by placing it on a wig stand or mannequin.

  • DO NOT blow dry. The wig or hairpiece has to be in moderately damp condition; it shouldn’t be soaked or dripping everywhere.


8. Store your wig or hairpiece on a wig stand or mannequin to maintain the wig’s style best.
