Cut, Color, Styling Tools, & Products
- Wigs can be recolored, but avoid drastic changes (e.g., jet black to platinum).
- If lightening hair color, do it in multiple sessions to prevent damage or purchase a new wig in that color family.
- Use only flat irons, curling irons, and handheld blow dryers.
- Keep oils light; avoid heavy products unless styling a sleek ponytail.
- Use light gels or professional-grade hairspray as needed.
- Double-sided sticky tape can be used along the hairline if desired.
- We don’t recommend glue to avoid hair-to-skin contact.
- Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners (drugstore or professional). If the hair feels different after washing, re-rinse to remove product buildup.
- Air dry overnight or use a hand blow dryer with a mannequin head for drying.
What to Do When Your Wig Arrives
- Remove wig from packaging and place it on a mannequin head.
- Gather a comb, clip, scissors, and turn on a bright light.
- Examine the hairline to see how it looks.
- For frontal wigs, wear a wig grip (available on Amazon). Align the clear part with your part or desired position.
- Put the wig on, adjusting the back hooks for a secure (not tight) fit.
- Check the lace at your sideburns. The hair should go around your ear with ease. If the lace flaps up or is visible, trim it—peak toward your cheek, base from hairline to ear. See here
- Now, check the lace at your hairline.
- Carefully trim any excess lace for a natural look.
- We pre-cut it for you, but small tweaks may be needed.
