How to clean wigs in winter to make their lifespan longer?
Unlike natural hair that grows directly from the scalp, wigs have long lost the pure natural plant oils metabolized by hair. Therefore, compared to our own hair, the hair on a wig will be more sensitive. It is more prone to dryness and is very susceptible to the harm of severe cold temperatures. Being dry and irritable can cause entanglement, cracking, and even hair loss, so maintaining its nutritional content is crucial. In order to better maintain the physical and mental health of wigs in winter, the editor will teach everyone some ways to keep their wigs dry and soft. 1、 Use silk pillowcases for sleeping at night Generally, pillowcases are not smooth, and wigs that sleep at night may rub against the unsmooth raw materials, resulting in excess roughness And the silk and satin are very smooth, not easy to cause friction on the hair, and will not digest and absorb the moisture in the hair like typical pillowcases Without a silk pillowcase, one can still sleep in a silk handkerchief or nightcap, which can also resist dryness very well. 2、 Take good safety measures when going out In extremely cold temperatures, it is important to wear a comfortable sunshade hat with a soft raw material lining when going out to prevent damage to hair caused by the cold and strong winds. Although there is less sunlight in colder months, it can still oxidize the air in the wig, making it lighter or slightly reddish in color. Therefore, wearing a sunshade hat when going out is still very necessary 3、 Application specific anti-static air cushion comb for wigs Before cleaning your wig, please use a wide toothed comb (preferably a wig specific comb) to tidy up the part tied from the end of the hair, and comb it down from the root of the hair to make it easier to clean and care for your wig 4、 Proper shampoo If excessive hair washing will cause hair dryness, it is better to wash hair every 2 to 3 days, but actually it depends on the condition of your hair. In addition, in order to better maintain the smoothness of your hair, it is better to use the wash free conditioner spray every day, and then do a deep maintenance every star period, but the hair care cream should not stick to the hair as much as possible, which will weaken the hair knot and cause the hair to burst. 5、 Special tools for thermal styling design Special tools for thermal styling design (including new hair dryers) can harm hair. Therefore, when using these special tools, please ensure that they are set to the minimum heat generation and do not involve hair during drying. 6、 Shampoo attention If you are taking a shower and cleaning your wig, try to keep the temperature at a slightly cooler temperature that you can tolerate. Overtemperature water can also cause damage to the wig. If you are cleaning and distributing wigs in a stainless steel sink, please use cold water to wash, as cold water is softer for hair. 7、 Swimming water Although you can definitely wear a wig to swim, in reality, it is not recommended to do so. Due to the chlorine in the swimming pool, hair can become very dry and irritable. In order to better avoid the digestion and absorption of chlorine by hair in the swimming pool, it is recommended to clean the wig before swimming. If possible, soak the wig before swimming. This way, the hair can digest and absorb the conditioner, leaving less indoor space to digest and absorb the chlorine in the swimming pool. If it is not too tight, wearing a swimming cap can also maintain your hair and keep it dry. In autumn and winter, the weather is cold and windy, which may harm your wig According to what the editor mentioned above, you can protect your wig very well by doing what you can and don't need to do
