Wearing your first hair system may be a little challenging at the outset as you adjust to issues of placement, styling, and care. However, a quality system is an excellent resource for a variety of needs. Whether you are trying out a new look, or you are coping with hair loss related to medical issues, your system is a tool that allows you to achieve a look that you love. When it comes to wig care some issues are just as important as when you would care for your own natural hair. Wig shampoo is important for keeping your new system looking its best.

While you may have received initial instructions on wig care, it’s important to review some basic information related to choosing and using wig shampoo. Just as real hair gets dirty and oily; your hair system can experience the same issues. These can be more pronounced, though, because of the products used in attaching your system. Whether you use a skin-like cap or French lace, you will find that application adhesives and oils from your own skin can build up and create grime. Your wig shampoo routine needs to include treatment of these areas.

Additionally, you need to wash the actual hair of the wig. Whether you have a system made of real hair or a synthetic fiber system, you can obtain wig shampoo products that are specially formulated for your needs. It’s important to realize that there are shampoos and other wig care products designed specifically for human hair and synthetic systems. Using the incorrect product on a wig can actually cause damage. For example: The use of products formulated for real hair in a synthetic system can lead to a dull appearance and a frizzy quality. Your system is an investment, and it’s important to use the correct products designed for the materials you use.

Hair systems don’t last indefinitely. Therefore, it’s essential that you use the correct wig shampoo for your system. Prolonging the life of your wig through diligent maintenance can assure that your system makes you look your best at any time. Make sure that you protect your investment in your wig.
