Things to Avoid when Wearing Synthetic Wigs
1.Never Skip a Wash
It is commonly misunderstood by the masses of women that wearing synthetic wigs mean neglecting your own hair. Contrary to this belief; wigs require you to be in the best of your hygiene. A messy head with sebum produce stinks your scalp and also reduce the lifespan of your wig. It is important you wash your hair with a conditioning shampoo & moisturize it before donning a wig.
2. Never Wear Synthetic Wigs Directly
Wigs damage your hair by being rubbed against them. It is important you wear a wig liner to prevent your hair from direct damage. A mesh wig cap helps your hair breathe while you are wearing a wig. It also provides a flat surface for your wig to firmly grip on.
3. Never Leave your Hair Undone under Synthetic Wigs
You simply just cannot wear a wig unless you do your natural hair. Make sure your own hair are weaved, braided or done in cornrows. This prevents hair breakage from being tugged under a wig. It keeps your hair neat & frizz free.
4. Never Wear a Wrong Wig Size
Never wear wigs that are not your size. Too tight wigs can cause discomfort at nape. Same goes with wigs that are a bigger size. They fidget causing friction that leads to hair loss. Synthetic wigs come with hair combs and adjustable straps. When both are available; try adjusting your wigs with straps only since these tiny clips are associated with hair breakage.
Synthetic wigs are perfect to change your style temporarily. The options are infinite; long, curly, beachy waves, heavy pompadours etc. You can even get a timeless bob without chopping your hair off. Make the most of your wigs by taking care of them.
