How to Defrizz Your Wig

We know that you dream of having beautiful hair that has a pop of color and style. But changing your hairstyle too often can damage the health of your hair. Therefore, many people choose to wear wigs to get the hairstyle they want. In order to keep your wig beautiful, you must do the right care or it will become frizzy.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced wig wearer, it is important to know how to get rid of wig frizz when caring for your wig. No one wants to wear a frizzy wig because they look dirty and messy. In this blog, we will show you how to properly get rid of synthetic or human hair wigs that are frizzy.

Why do synthetic wigs become frizzy?

It is common for synthetic wigs to develop some frizz over time. This is because synthetic wigs are made of synthetic fibers that can deform and create static electricity or static attraction

Why do human hair wigs get frizzy?

Unlike your natural hair, human hair wigs do not produce the natural moisture and oils produced by the scalp. So over time, human hair wigs can become dry, damaged and frizzy. This coupled with multiple uses of hot tools can dry out your hair. Because the hair system is not our real hair and cannot receive moisture from the scalp, they become dry and messy.

How can I avoid my wig becoming frizzy?

Over-styling is a major cause of making wigs more prone to frizz. When you style with styling tools on a daily basis, it strips moisture from your wigs, causing damage and frizz. You should use curling irons or straighteners as little as possible. If you must use a hot tool, you must spray it with a heat protectant first.

Also, the way you dry your wig can affect the condition of your hair. If you use a rough cotton towel to dry your wig, it will create friction and clumping. The towel will dry your hair quickly, but it will cause frizz.

How do I defrizz my wig?

For many wig wearers, tangled and curly wigs are a pain because they look dull and unnatural. And you will also feel uncomfortable while wearing them. You can eliminate frizz and restore the shine of your wig by using the following methods

Wash your wig properly

Washing your wig properly is one of the best ways to remove frizz from synthetic and human hair wigs and the easiest way to get rid of frizzy hair and keep it natural.

Before washing, use a wide tooth comb or run your fingers through your hair to remove tangles. Be careful to move gently to avoid causing breakage or breakage of the wig. Fill the sink with water, warm or cold, and rinse the wig.

Next, apply a shampoo suitable for the wig to the hair. Remember to work from the top down to avoid tangles. Rinse your hair with water, you can repeat this step if your wig is dirty. Then use a conditioner to moisturize the wig.

Rinse out all product and buildup and pat the wig gently with a dry towel. When finished, allow the wig to air dry. If your wig is made of human hair or heat-resistant synthetic fibers, you can use a low-heat hair dryer.

Use a conditioning spray

If you don't have time to wash your wig, you can use a conditioning spray to give it a quick fix. Conditioning sprays can be effective in removing frizz from synthetic or human hair wigs.

First, place the wig on a wig stand or mannequin head.

Spray the conditioning spray lightly on the wig. But you want to avoid the top part of the head, it may cause the wig to get greasy and loose.

Then, using your fingers or taking a wide toothcomb, brush the product evenly over the wig. We recommend using your fingers to comb through the curly synthetic wig as this will protect the curls well.

Continue to apply the styling product (cream or mousse) to the ends of the hair. This helps to remove any residual frizz and locks in moisture well.

Use natural oils

If your wig is made of synthetic fibers that are not heat-resistant and you don't have a conditioning spray on hand, consider using natural oils to tame frizzy hair that are safe for wigs. Coconut oil, olive oil and jojoba oil, for example, can work to remove tangles and frizz, as well as add shine to your wig.

You can take about 1/8 teaspoon of coconut oil, rub it in the palm of your hand, and apply the oil to your hair, avoiding the crown area and distributing the oil evenly on the wig from the top down.

But control the amount and don't apply too much oil to the synthetic hair wig. Otherwise, your hair will look greasy. In case you use too much, dry shampoo can solve this solution.

Use fabric softener

Another tip to eliminate frizzy wigs is to use fabric softener. It can work to remove frizzy hair and even synthetic hair systems. Mix water and fabric softener in a spray bottle in medium amounts and shake well. Then spray on the wig and spray lightly. Let the hair air dry.
