Aftercare for Your New Hair System
The following steps should be followed to ensure a proper and thorough cleaning of your new hair system.
- Gently brush out your system, ensuring there are no tangles in the hair.
- With your index and middle finger in a scissor motion, hold the part line of the system. NOTE: It is important to hold the system by its part line throughout the entire washing process.
- Begin by rinsing your hair system with warm running water. Ensure that you rinse the inside of the cap as well as the hair.
- Fill your sink/basin about halfway with water, adding a small amount of shampoo (use salon or professional quality) to the running water to disperse it through the sink. Make sure there is enough water to fully submerge the system.
- Dip the wig into the sink so that it is fully submerged. Make sure to handle the system very gently, as if you were washing a fine garment. Draw the system through the water slowly, letting the water do the work. Do not agitate or scrub the system.
- Drain the sink and rinse the system thoroughly.
- Fill the sink with water and add shampoo again. Wash the system a second time with just as much care as the first time.
- Drain the sink and rinse the system thoroughly.
- Fill the sink a third time, and add conditioner (use salon or professional quality) to the sink.
- Draw the system through the sink a few times, drain the sink and rise the system.
- Place the system on a towel and pat the excess water out. Be sure that you do not rub or agitate the hair.
- At this point, you can add a leave-in conditioner or Moroccan oil to the mid-shaft through to the ends.
- Brush the system gently to disperse the product and to ensure easy styling.
- Place the system on a Styrofoam head and style as usual.
These steps should ensure a thorough and easy cleaning of your hair system. Remember that the hair system should only be washed every 4-6 weeks with daily wear.
