Comb your wig lightly for daily usage with a wide-toothed comb or wig brush. Similar to how we brush our own hair, begin at the ends and work your way down to the roots to avoid yanking on the strands. The best way to maintain the curls in place on curly wigs is to use a comb or your fingers.
Compared to natural hair, wigs do not require as much washing. Wash synthetic wigs after 15 to 20 wears. Washing human hair wigs only needs to be done seven to ten times. The wig's lifespan may be shortened and the material damaged by frequent washing.
◆ Prepare a basin: Fill the basin with cool or lukewarm water and add the appropriate shampoo to the water, depending on the material of the wig you are using.
◆ Submerge and spin: Gently submerge the wig and spin it for a few minutes. Avoid scrubbing or wringing the wig fibers.
◆ Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the wig under running cool water until the shampoo is all washed out.
◆ Deep conditioning: Apply wig conditioner, leave on for a few minutes, then rinse and air dry.
Of course, we also have articles that provide detailed step-by-step instructions:
For synthetic wigs, use heat styling tools sparingly and only if the wig is labeled as heat-resistant. For human hair wigs, you can use curling irons and straighteners but always apply a heat protectant spray beforehand.

Use styling products designed specifically for wigs. Regular hair products can be too harsh and may damage the wig fibers. Light sprays and mousse can help maintain the style without weighing down the wig.
To keep your wig in form, store it on a mannequin head or wig stand. If you don't have a stand, you can store it in its original box as long as you keep it out of direct sunlight and in a cool, dry location.
