How to Take Care of Your Human Hair Topper?
Buying a hair topper is easy, but taking care of a hair topper is not as easy as buying one. So, here are some tips for you! Let’s learn together how to wash your human hair topper in the right way.
First, you can brush through your human hair carefully with a paddle brush to remove any tangles or knots. Because even the most careful washing will hurt the hair a bit, be careful when brushing through your hair.
Second, you can use cool water and run it through your human hair in the same direction as the hair. Since we want the hair to stay as flat as possible, we never want to run the water in the opposite direction! This will hurt the hair and cause the hair to tangle and frizz, which is what we don’t want to see ever.
Third, shampoo the hair twice and then condition the wig. We recommend using high-quality shampoo and conditioner. Unlike hair that grows out of the head, it doesn’t replenish itself so it’s important to use a shampoo that is hydrating and a conditioner that will continue to treat the hair.
Fourth, gently squeeze out the excess water, and run your fingers through the hair again. Then towel dries your hair topper. After you wash your topper we recommend gently pat it dry with a towel to remove any excess water.
Fifth, allow the hair to dry to approximately 90% before styling with a hairdryer. If you would prefer to air dry your topper, pop this on a wig stand, brush the hair back and with the hair parted in the correct direction while it dries off completely and make sure it’s ready to wear!
Sixth, you can use heat to style your human hair topper. It is recommended that your piece is styled on a stand with clamps for ease of use. It is safe to use other products, like hair spray, on your piece. Be mindful not to overdo it and also to wash the product out well.
Seventh, store your piece on a stand when it’s not in use to help keep its shape. Do not store your piece in direct sunlight. Your piece can also be stored in a box if you don’t intend to wear it every day.
Finally, caring for your human hair toppers is super important, and starts with the very first wash. Treat your investment gently, use good quality products, and follow these instructions to keep your human hair topper looking like new!
