How to Revive Your Curly Wig

It can be quite annoying when your curly wig gets tangled, fuzzy, or lose its bounce after being used for a long time. What would you do with it? Will you just throw it away or try to bring it back to life as possible as you can? Well, those who can easily afford a fancy wig, would probably discard it. But there is always a way to be more thrift. With proper maintenance and care, your curly hair can retrieve those bouncy curls back and last longer. This article is a guide on how to revive your curly wig.

For starters, we need to understand a fact that hair wigs can get dry or stiff after a long time of use. Unlike natural hair which has a natural oil that our scalp produces to keep it moisturized, this is the very element that hair wig lacks, so it inevitably gets dry or fuzzy. In this post, you will get to know the guide on how to revamp your curly wig.

Detangle The Curly Wig

Spray a little bit of water or detangling mist throughout the wig before detangling. Separate the hair into small sections and use a wide-toothed comb to brush the hair, in order to remove the tangles. Do remember not to brush it too hard, or you may ruin the curls.

Dip The Curly Wig In Hot Water

Boil water with a pot and then pour the boiling water into the basin. Put in some conditioner and coconut oil or any other natural oil, and mix them together. Dip your curly wig in the water and let it sit for 15 minutes, then rinse it off when the water gets cooler.

Wash The Curly Wig With Shampoo

Deep cleaned the wig with some shampoo to remove the dirt and residue on the wig. Also, brush the hair while washing to detangle it. But please keep in mind not to pull it hard because the hair is in a fragile state when wet.

Deep Condition Your Curly Wig

Apply some moisturizing conditioner to the hair to keep it moisturized. Let the conditioner stay on the hair wig for 3 to 5 minutes to use its magic and then rinse it off thoroughly. This step can be repeated depending on how awful your curly wig is.

Revive The Curls

We officially come to the last step also the most important step. Apply some curl-enhancing smoothie to the hair and gently massage the hair to make sure the smoothie goes thoroughly on every hair strand. And then put the hair wig back on the wig stand. Use some hair styling gel on the hair and twist the curls gently, so that they can fall back into their original pattern.
