Different styles of wigs provide us with infinite possibilities in our lives. Today we can be a girl with short blonde curly hair, and tomorrow we can have black straight hair. Many people have a lot of different wigs, so how to store them has become a problem. Some people believe that unused wigs do not need to be taken care of. Actually, this concept is incorrect. The longer the wig is stored, the more meticulous the care should be. If you don't store them correctly, they may become dry and tangled over time. So how should we store so many types of human hair wigs at home? We will give you some practical tips in this blog.
Before storing the human hair wigs, you need to make some preparations.
1. Wash and condition your wig before storing it
It is crucial to ensure proper cleaning and maintenance of wigs before storing them. Experts suggest that regularly cleaning wigs is the key to keeping hair fresh. Especially before storing wigs, use a cleaning shampoo and conditioner suitable for human hair wigs to remove any product residue or oil accumulation. Be careful when cleaning lace front wigs to avoid further damage.
2. Make sure your hair wig is entirely dry
After washing the wig, make sure the hair is entirely dry before storing it. Storing damp wigs may cause mold and further damage to the hair, please don’t do it. The best way to dry your wig is to air dry it naturally. You can also use a hair dryer (and heat protectant) to accelerate this process.
3. Detangle your wig
Detange hair before storing it can prevent it from losing its curl pattern or style. And it will be easier to wear when needed in the future. You can use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to gently comb your wig to prevent it from breaking.
After completing the above preparations, you can store your wig and make sure to place it in a cool and dry place, avoiding direct sunlight. Here are some recommended methods to store the wigs.
1. Store your wig on a wig head
A wig head or a wig stand is a great storage option, which helps maintain the shape and style of the wig without causing it to deform. If there is enough space in your house or closet, it is a great idea to use wig heads to showcase your wig collections. If there is not enough space, don't worry, you can prepare one or two for daily use. You can also use a hair bonnet to cover the wig to prevent dust.
2. Store wigs on hanging wig stands
Another wonderful wig storage option is using a wig hanger, especially if you don't have enough space to store your wig heads. You can put your wig on top and easily hang it in the empty space of your wardrobe. It is also suitable for drying wigs, helping them maintain their shape.
3. Store your wig in a silk or satin bag
Usually, when purchasing a wig, you will receive a silk or satin bag, which is also a good choice for storing wigs. The drawstring design of the silk bag makes it easy to carry and open. It has the ability to retain moisture, making it very suitable for storing styled wigs to prevent them from drying and knotting. At the same time, it can also prevent wig friction and static electricity from damaging hairs.
The above are just a few simple ways. Storing wigs properly can extend their lifespan and fully utilize their value. WIGGINS HAIR offers high-quality 100% human hair at an affordable price. Whether it is natural black wigs or colored wigs are very beautiful, and welcome to purchase!
