THE OWNERSFAB CARE JOURNAL

Care for the hair.
Keep the feeling.

A considered routine for the pieces you love. From wash day to the moment you put your wig away, gentle handling makes all the difference.

General guidance for human-hair wigs. Instructions supplied with your individual piece and styling products take priority.

THE CARE EDIT / 01

Wash with a gentle hand

Begin with detangling, then cleanse without rough rubbing.

Before water touches the hair

Work through tangles in small sections, starting at the ends and moving upward. Support the hair near the cap rather than pulling against the lace.

Cleanse in the direction of the hair

Use lukewarm water and a gentle shampoo suitable for the hair and any color treatment. Smooth the cleanser down the lengths; avoid bunching, twisting or scrubbing the hair against itself.

Rinse and blot

Rinse thoroughly. Gently blot excess water with a soft towel instead of wringing. Adjust your wash routine to product buildup and wear, and follow the instructions supplied with your piece.

THE CARE EDIT / 02

Softness without the buildup

Condition thoughtfully so the hair keeps its movement.

Focus on the lengths

Apply a suitable conditioner mainly through the mid-lengths and ends. Keep heavy products away from the lace, knots and any adhesive areas unless your wig’s instructions say otherwise.

Rinse with care

Use the conditioner’s stated contact time, then rinse thoroughly. More product does not necessarily mean more softness; start lightly and assess how the hair feels.

Let the hair dry completely

Support the wig on an appropriate ventilated stand and allow the cap and hair to dry fully. Avoid storing a damp wig or applying high heat to speed drying.

THE CARE EDIT / 03

Less pulling. More patience.

A small daily habit can make styling simpler.

Start at the ends

Divide the hair into manageable sections. Ease out tangles with your fingers, then use a suitable wide-tooth comb or wig brush, moving upward a little at a time.

Support the hair

Hold the section above the tangle to reduce strain on the cap and lace. Do not force a comb through a knot or tug at the hairline.

Respect the texture

For wavy and curly pieces, use fingers or a suitable comb with a compatible detangling product as directed. Avoid aggressive dry brushing that disrupts the pattern. Let the supplied texture-specific instructions guide your routine.

THE CARE EDIT / 04

Style with restraint

Use only the heat you need for the finish you want.

Check the piece first

Confirm that your specific wig is suitable for heat styling. Follow the supplier’s temperature guidance rather than assuming every hair type tolerates the same setting.

Protect and work gently

Use a compatible heat protectant as directed. Style dry hair in small sections at the lowest effective temperature and avoid repeated passes over the same area.

Leave the lace and knots alone

Keep hot tools away from lace, knots, adhesives and packaging. Allow the hair to cool before rearranging it. For coloring, bleaching or major restyling, ask a professional experienced with wigs.

THE CARE EDIT / 05

A softer end to the day

Help your look rest between wears.

When your wig can be removed

Gently remove it using the method appropriate to its attachment. Release adhesive with its compatible remover as directed; never pull lace free by force.

If you keep it on overnight

Follow your installer’s advice. Loosely contain the lengths and reduce rubbing with a satin or silk bonnet or pillowcase. Avoid going to bed with wet hair.

Keep the routine light

Avoid piling on oils or styling products before sleep. Detangle with care the next time you wear or style the piece.

THE CARE EDIT / 06

Store it like a favorite

Make room for a clean, dry place between wears.

Dry before putting it away

Check the cap and lengths for moisture. Store only when fully dry, away from direct sunlight, humidity and hot surfaces.

Keep its shape

Use a suitable stand or gently arrange the hair in a protective bag. Avoid tight folds, crushing or placing heavy items on top of the hair.

Refresh before the next wear

Gently detangle, inspect the lace and style as needed. How long a wig lasts varies with the hair, construction, wear and care; no fixed lifespan is promised.

CARE, BEAUTIFULLY CONSIDERED

Make it
a ritual.

Discover the essentials behind your look.

Choose styling products that suit your particular hair and lace. Follow each product’s label; the guide does not replace formula-specific directions.
