Raw Wig Care Guide

Hair Care Tips for Long-Lasting Beauty

Your wig is made with 100% raw human hair and is designed to be worn again and again with proper care. Following these simple maintenance tips will help keep your wig looking beautiful for years.


Daily Care

  • Gently brush or comb your wig before and after each wear.
  • Always begin at the ends and slowly work your way toward the roots.
  • Store your wig on a mannequin head or satin storage bag when not in use.
  • Avoid sleeping, swimming, or exercising while wearing your wig.


Washing Your Wig

We recommend washing your wig every 8–12 wears, or whenever product buildup occurs.

You’ll Need:

  • Sulfate-free shampoo
  • Moisturizing conditioner
  • Wide-tooth comb
  • Microfiber towel

Washing Steps

  1. Detangle the hair from ends to roots.
  2. Wet the hair using lukewarm water.
  3. Apply sulfate-free shampoo and gently smooth it through the hair.
  4. Rinse thoroughly.
  5. Apply conditioner from the mid-lengths to the ends.
  6. Allow the conditioner to sit for 5–10 minutes.
  7. Rinse completely.
  8. Gently blot excess water using a microfiber towel.
  9. Allow the wig to air dry on a wig stand.

Never scrub, twist, or wring the hair.


Heat Styling

Raw human hair can be curled, straightened, and restyled.

Before using heat:

  • Always apply a heat protectant.
  • Keep styling tools between 300°F–375°F whenever possible.
  • Avoid excessive daily heat styling to help preserve the hair.


Curl Maintenance

To refresh curls:

  • Lightly mist the hair with water.
  • Apply a small amount of lightweight mousse or curl cream if desired.
  • Finger-style or use a wide-tooth comb.
  • Allow curls to air dry.

Avoid heavy oils that weigh the curls down.


Straight Style Maintenance

For sleek styles:

  • Use a paddle brush or wide-tooth comb.
  • Wrap the hair at night or store it flat.
  • Touch up with minimal heat only when necessary.


Lace Care

Your HD lace is delicate.

  • Handle the lace gently.
  • Avoid pulling on the lace when removing the wig.
  • Remove makeup from the lace using a soft cloth and gentle cleanser.
  • Do not scrub or stretch the lace.


Product Recommendations

For the best results, use:

  • Sulfate-free shampoo
  • Moisturizing conditioner
  • Leave-in conditioner (lightweight)
  • Heat protectant
  • Lightweight serum
  • Wig-safe mousse
