How to wash Synthetic Hair Toppers
Proper care of your synthetic hair topper will ensure you get the most life out of your system and keep it looking natural longer! We recommend washing your hair topper every 6-8 full day wears.
Before you begin, here are the essentials you need:
|
A towel |
Care Instructions:
Step 1: Close all the clips on your hair topper
Step 2: Detangle Gently detangle your hair topper by combing through it with a wide tooth comb.
Step 3: Rinse Once your hair topper is detangled, rinse it from root to ends with lukewarm water.
Step 4: Shampoo Once your hair topper is fully rinsed, set your topper on your towel and emulsify your BeautiMark Synthetic Shampoo in your hands. Then gently massage the shampoo into your topper in a downward motion, starting at the base down to the ends of the hair. Be sure to massage the base, with the shampoo, using circular motions.
Step 5: Rinse Rinse your hair topper from the base/root to the ends with lukewarm water until all shampoo is rinsed out. Squeeze the hair topper to remove any excess water once you are done rinsing it (do not ring the hair as it will cause the strands to tangle). Then lay your topper down on the towel and blot dry.
Step 6: Condition & Dry Place your hair topper on your wig stand and spray (staring a couple of inches away from the roots) BeautiMark Leave-In Conditioner (approximately 4-6 times depending on length). Comb through it (tips to root) one more time and allow to air dry on the wig stand. Always make sure the ends are hanging (not resting on a surface) to avoid cold setting.
