Knowing the specific requirements of a wig is vital to understanding the specific care needs of different hair types.

Kinky Colily Wigs You must keep curly or kinky wigs moisturized, mainly if you use them daily.


Wet and Wavy wigs are simple to care for and only need a quick shake to achieve a damp, wavy appearance.

Tousled Wavy is ideal. If you favor a messy wave, you'll need a curling iron or heat-free rollers; adhere to the comprehensive styling guidelines.

Yaki and Kinky straight wigs require the least amount of upkeep.

Choose the right texture: Select a wig that closely resembles your hair or a natural hair texture. The more confident you are about wearing the texture, the more natural it will appear.


Cut the lace: Carefully trim the lace close to the hairline so it is undetectable.


Blend with concealer: If the wig's lace color does not match your skin, use concealer or tinted mousse to help create a smooth blend between your skin and the lace.

 

The lifespan of your wig depends on several factors, including how often you wear it, whether you sleep in it, and how often you wash it. Sealing the knots between washes can also help extend its life by minimizing shedding.

Based on our clients' experience, here's a general guideline for when you might consider replacing your wig:

Curly Wigs: 6-9 months with daily wear

Wet and Wavy Wigs: 6-9 months with daily wear

Tousled Wavy Wigs: 1 year with daily wear

Straight Wigs: 1 year with daily wear

Remember, these are just estimates. Your wig's lifespan can vary depending on how well you care for it. We also offer touch-up services to keep your wig looking its best even longer.
