How to Care for Your Wig: Keep It Looking Fresh and Fabulous
Whether you’re wearing your wig every day or only for special occasions, proper care is the key to keeping it looking flawless. At Klass Hair Wigs, we believe your wig should be as fabulous as you are—for as long as possible.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to wash, detangle, style, store, and protect your human hair wig the right way.
💧 1. How Often Should You Wash Your Wig?
- Every 2–3 weeks if worn daily
- After 6–8 wears for occasional use
- Immediately after sweating heavily, product build-up, or if exposed to smoke or strong odors
Washing too often can strip the wig of natural moisture. Not washing enough causes tangling and buildup. Find your balance based on usage.
🧴 2. Products You Should Use
Always choose sulfate-free and alcohol-free products designed for human hair wigs.
Essentials:
- Sulfate-free shampoo
- Moisturizing conditioner
- Leave-in conditioner or serum
- Wide-tooth comb or detangling brush
- Heat protectant spray (if using hot tools)
💡 Avoid heavy oils or silicone-based products—they weigh down the hair and cause buildup.
🧼 3. How to Wash Your Wig (Step-by-Step)
- Detangle first with a wide-tooth comb, starting from the ends and working upward
- Fill a sink with lukewarm water and mix in your shampoo
- Gently dip the wig in and out of the water. Do NOT rub or twist
- Rinse under lukewarm water
- Apply conditioner from mid-length to ends
- Let it sit for 5–10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly
- Pat dry with a towel—don’t wring
- Air-dry on a wig stand or mannequin head
🚫 Do not brush while wet—it causes breakage.
✨ 4. Daily Wig Maintenance Tips
- Detangle after every wear
- Store on a wig stand or mannequin head
- Use a silk or satin scarf if storing flat
- Apply a light leave-in to maintain softness
- Avoid sleeping, showering, or swimming in your wig (unless it’s designed for that)
🔥 5. Using Heat on Your Wig
Yes, you can use heat tools—but only on 100% human hair wigs like ours at Klass Hair Wigs.
Before you style:
- Use a heat protectant spray
- Keep heat tools under 350°F (180°C)
- Avoid daily use of flat irons or curling wands
💡 For curls, try flexi rods or heatless curling methods to reduce damage.
🛍️ 6. Storing Your Wig Properly
To maintain shape and avoid tangling:
- Use a wig stand, mannequin head, or satin bag
- Never leave wigs in direct sunlight
- Avoid tight containers that flatten the wig
- Keep in a cool, dry place
