General Care

  • Give your hair toppers a good wash every 2 to 4 weeks. 

  • Using care & styling products that are specially made for wigs and other alternative hair can really make a difference. When you're out shopping, look for shampoos and conditioners formulated for each specific fiber.

  • Use a wide tooth comb and detangle often. And if you're dealing with synthetic toppers, a detangling spray can be your best friend!

How to Wash Synthetic Hair

1. Detangle

Before jumping into washing, just make sure to gently work through any tangles using a wide-tooth comb. A neat trick is to start at the ends and gradually move up towards the roots – it really helps cut down on shedding. Just take your time, and remember, patience is key here!

2. Rinse

Use some lukewarm water and carefully rinse from the roots down to the ends. Try to avoid soaking or rubbing too much because it could end up causing more tangles. 

3. Shampoo

 Lather up the shampoo in your hands and then gently work it through the hair. A small amount evenly distributed will do just fine. 

4. Condition

 Spray some leave-in conditioner from the middle of the hair down to the ends. Just remember to avoid the root or any knots.

5. Rinse

Just let the lukewarm water run in the same direction as the hair – this will help avoid any extra tangles. When you're done, give the hair a gentle squeeze and press; remember, no wringing.

6. Dry

 Gently comb the hair  before the hair dries. Air dry on a folding wig stand. 

How to Wash Human Hair

3. Shampoo

 Lather up the shampoo in your hands and then gently work it through the hair. A small amount evenly distributed will do just fine. 

4. Condition

 Let the conditioner sit for a few minutes before you rinse it out. But remember, keep it away from the roots. Applying conditioner to the roots might undo the knots in the cap and cause the fibers to fall out.

5. Rinse

Just let the lukewarm water run in the same direction as the hair – this will help avoid any extra tangles. When you're done, give the hair a gentle squeeze and press; remember, no wringing.

6. Dry

 Blow dry until it's about 80% dry, and then grab your round brush and smooth it out.
