How to wear and care

Wear it well, make it last.

Step-by-step guides to putting on your wig, taking it off, washing it and keeping it beautiful for longer.

Put On & Go

Ready in minutes.

For glueless wigs with pre-cut lace and an adjustable band.

1
Prep your hair
Braid or cornrow your hair flat, or slick it back. Put on a wig cap if you like.
2
Put it on
Hold the wig by the sides, slide it on from front to back, and line the hairline up with yours.
3
Adjust the band
Pull the elastic band at the back until it feels snug but comfortable.
4
Secure the combs
Clip the combs into your braids at the front, sides and back.
5
Finish
Lay the baby hair with a little edge gel if you like, set it with a scarf for a few minutes, and go.

Lace front

For lace front and closure wigs, with or without glue.

1
Prep
Braid or flatten your hair, cleanse your hairline with alcohol, and put on a wig cap that matches your skin.
2
Place
Put the wig on and line the lace up just in front of your natural hairline.
3
Cut the lace
If it is not pre-cut, trim the lace close to the hairline in small zig-zags. Never cut straight across.
4
Secure
Use the band and combs for a glueless install, or apply thin layers of lace glue or gel and let each go clear.
5
Melt
Tie a scarf over the hairline for 10 to 15 minutes. Add foundation or powder to the lace for a closer blend.
6
Style
Part it, lay the edges, and style it your way.

Wash day

Less often if you wear it rarely; more often if you use a lot of product.

1
Detangle
Detangle gently from the ends up with a wide-tooth comb.
2
Rinse
Rinse with lukewarm water, running down the hair, never scrubbing.
3
Shampoo
Shampoo with a sulphate-free shampoo, smoothing it down the lengths.
4
Condition
Condition from mid-length to ends and leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes.
5
Dry gently
Rinse, then squeeze out water with a microfibre towel. Do not rub or wring.
6
Finish
Add a leave-in or heat protectant and let it air-dry on a stand.

Everyday care

Always use a heat protectant and keep tools at a moderate setting. Less heat means a longer life.

Take it off to sleep, or wrap it in a silk scarf. Store it on a stand or in its bag.

Refresh curls with water and a leave-in. Human hair on a wig gets no natural oils, so it needs your help.

Wide-tooth comb or fingers only, from the ends up. Never brush curly textures dry.

Your own hair

Edges first

Glueless styles are the gentlest on your hairline. If you use glue, remove it fully with a proper remover, never by pulling.

Give it a break

Moisturise your own hair and scalp between wears, keep braids loose, and give your hairline a few days off now and then.
