"Stay Cool and Stylish: Essential Dos and Don'ts for Summer Wigs" ENJOY SUMMER!

Wig dos and donts

Ladies, summer is here. It is time to refresh your summer look. The hot season for wig wearers brings specific challenges: a hot and sweaty scalp, damp hair, and potential heat damage. For those of us who deal with wigs every day, we understand completely! We have some do's and don'ts for summer wigs to help you keep calm and keep your wig healthy this summer.

When considering wigs for summer, it's essential to balance style, comfort, and care. Here are some dos and don'ts:

 Dos:

1.Choose Lightweight Wigs: Opt for wigs made from breathable materials like lace fronts or monofilament tops to allow for better air circulation.

2.Pick Shorter Styles: Shorter wigs or styles that keep hair off the neck can be more comfortable and cooler.

3.Consider Human Hair: Human hair wigs tend to be more breathable and natural-looking, though they require more maintenance.

4.Use Moisture-Wicking Caps: These can help reduce sweat and keep your scalp cooler.

5.Protect from Sun Damage: Use UV-protectant sprays to prevent color fading and damage from sun exposure.

6.Maintain Regular Cleaning: Sweat and oils can accumulate faster in the summer, so wash your wig regularly with appropriate products.

7.Secure Properly: Use wig grips or tapes to ensure your wig stays in place, even in windy or active conditions.

 Don'ts:

1.Avoid Heavy, Full Wigs: Thick, heavy wigs can trap heat and make you uncomfortable.

2.Stay Away from Dark Colors: Darker colors absorb more heat. Lighter shades can help keep you cooler.

3.Don’t Neglect Your Scalp: Ensure your natural hair and scalp are clean and well-moisturized to prevent irritation.

4.Avoid Excessive Heat Styling: Minimize the use of hot tools on human hair wigs, as heat can cause damage, and avoid blow-drying your natural hair under the wig.

5.Don't Skip the Wig Stand: Always store your wig on a stand when not in use to maintain its shape and longevity.

 

By following these tips, you can enjoy your wigs comfortably and stylishly throughout the summer.
