Many people that own wigs will need to care for them to keep them looking fresh. Wigs can cost hundreds of dollars and so are worth looking after carefully. If you have an old wig then it's possible to make it look as good as new again.

 

Washing Wig

 

To clean your wig you will need to wash it. Washing it will help to remove dirt, debris and grease from the wig.

 

When to Wash the Wig

 

The wig doesn't need to be washed every single time you wear it. Actually washing it too often will cause damage to the wig and mean that it won't last as long. You should only actually wash the wig after wearing it for 20 times or more.

 

How to Wash the Wig

 

Washing the wig is actually quite easy to do. What you should do is add the shampoo to a bowl of warm water. Then allow the wig to soak for a few hours before agitating the water to remove any dirt and debris from the wig.

 

Styling

 

If your old wig is suffering because of the style then you could try restyling it. You can either try to do this yourself, or for a better chance of success you could also have it restyled professionally. The new style should make it look more fashionable and like a brand new wig.

 

Storing the Wigs

 

To keep the wig looking fresh and new you should store it on the proper Styrofoam head. This will make sure that it doesn't get squashed or stretched and that it holds its shape correctly.
