Many customers asked me how to care curly lace wig. Because their hairs become frizzy and tangled after a while.
Here are few tips about curl hairs:
1. Shampoo your curls sparingly and always with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. When you do shampoo, use a nourishing shampoo for curly hairs to help combat dryness and keep your curls soft and healthy.
2. Dry curls gently to avoid breakage and frizz. After a wash, squeeze the excess moisture from your strands very gently with a microfiber towel or a soft cotton t-shirt. Standard cotton towels are too rough and can raise the delicate cuticle of a curly hair strand, causing frizz. Likewise, try to air-dry your curls whenever possible to reduce friction and heat-damage. If you must blow-dry, use a diffuser to disperse the heat and minimize frizz-causing friction.
3. Never brush your curls! Use a wide-toothed comb to detangle gently.
4. Use curl-defining styling products while your hair is still wet. Start defining those curls and waves while your hair is still wet or damp with your favorite curl-defining styling product. Be sure to choose a product designed for curly hair that helps your curls clump together and form defined spirals, coils, or waves while also providing plenty of frizz-fighting power.
5. Don’t mess with dry curls. Styling products for curly hair are designed to give you perfectly formed, touchably soft curls, but that doesn’t mean you should actually touch them. Once your hair is dry, don’t undo all that curl-defining work by running your fingers through your hair. Messing with your curls can break up your styling product and ruin your curl pattern, causing frizz to form.
6. Protect your curls while you sleep. Keep your curls from losing their shape and definition while you sleep by “pineappling” them on top of your head in a loose bun. Secure the bun with a soft scrunchy, and sleep on a silk pillowcase to cut down on frizz-inducing friction. In the morning, revive and nourish your curls with a curl defining creme oil.
Now, after all these tips, we can move forward to defining curls. I belive most of hair patterns in human hair wig market are made with steaming. So when you wash it, the curls will be looser. That’s definitely not what customers want. So there is a method of how to maintain or define the curls. It is very easy.
