With the right care routine and high-quality products, your wig can stay looking flawless and natural for as long as possible. Follow our simple guide below to maintain your wig’s softness, shape, and shine, and get the most out of your investment.
Recommended Products
We only recommend using Color Wow products on your wig. These are gentle, sulphate-free, and specially formulated to cleanse and protect without causing build-up or dryness.
Our top picks:
- Color Wow Color Security Shampoo – residue-free and sulphate-free, this gently cleanses without stripping the hair.
- Color Wow Color Security Conditioner – lightweight and hydrating, perfect for detangling and keeping your wig soft.
- Color Wow Money Mask – a deep conditioning treatment that restores moisture and shine.
- Color Wow Money Mist – a must-have leave in conditioner to help keep the wig hydrated.
Important: We do not recommend using cheap or low-quality shampoos and conditioners on your wig. These often contain harsh ingredients that dry out the fibres, cause frizz, and drastically reduce the wig’s lifespan.
Washing Your Wig
Wash your wig only once a month. Over-washing can wear out the fibres, affect the structure, and shorten its lifespan. Always use lukewarm water, apply products gently, and let the wig air dry naturally.
Heat Styling Tips
Limit heat styling to once per week to avoid excess heat damage.
Always use heat protection spray before heat styling.
Use low to medium heat settings only – max 180 degrees.
Storing Your Wig
Every order comes with:
- A polystyrene mannequin head – ideal for keeping your wig in shape between wears.
- A satin storage bag – perfect for travel or storing your wig safely in a drawer or suitcase.
Extra Tips
- Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb or wig brush, starting from the ends and working up.
- Don’t sleep or shower in your wig.
- Keep your wig away from heat sources and direct sunlight when not in use.
How to care for the lace
To keep your wig looking its best, it’s important to handle the lace with extra care. When washing your wig, always be gentle around the lace area - avoid harshly scrubbing or pulling. Never put on or take off your wig by tugging on the hair attached to the lace, as this can loosen or pull out the strands, eventually causing bald patches. Instead, hold the wig by the cap or ear tabs to maintain its shape and longevity. Treating the lace gently will help your wig last longer and look flawless wear after wear.
With proper care and the right products, your wig will stay beautiful and last as long as possible.
