How to Wash a Wig

Wigs are great fashion accessories for casual or formal occasions. They are especially great for medical related hair loss, concealing any type of hair loss or thinning hair and are a fun way to temporarily change your hairstyle without having to commit to those changes.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Wig
• Wig Brush or wide tooth comb
• Mild Shampoo
• Conditioning Spray
• Towel
• Wig Stand

1. Before washing, brush gently to untangle (if any). Please take your time with this step if your wig is matted.

2. Fill a basin with cold or cool water, add a dash of mild shampoo and swish gently.

3. Soak your wig in the solution and gently agitate in a circular motion with your hands.

4. Rinse thoroughly in cold water.

5. Towel blot your wig gently in a patting motion, then place on your wig stand to drip dry. Remember, never twist or wring your wig! *(Do not brush when wet)*

6. Brush into desired style after the wig is completely dry.

7. Do NOT use curling irons or curling kits as this will damage a synthetic wig.
