Foremost, you must have the proper tools in your arsenal to shampoo, condition, de-shed, untangle, moisturize, and maintain the luster and texture of your unit. While there is no right brand to use on your wig, there are some things to know and look out for. First, you must understand the texture and style of the synthetic fiber. For example, is your unit: silky straight, yaki, body waved or kinky curled? Some synthetic products are intended for certain textures. You must know and understand the texture of the hair to determine the best tools for maintaining and styling. Since synthetic hair is actually fiber, products designed for synthetic washing and conditioning are the best.

We recommend Wig Shampoo and Conditioner by Beverly Johnson. This product has been specially formulated and designed to help cleanse and soften synthetic wigs. Furthermore, Beverly Johnson Wig Spray is a styling mist that helps hold without flaking. This is perfect for our Lavish Signature Collection units because these synthetic wigs can be styled with the heat of an iron. Lastly, Beverly Johnson Luster Mist can be used daily to add sheen and softness to the hair. Overall, if a product is manufactured for the use on synthetic fiber, it should be safe and more appropriate then products designed for human hair.

Curling you heat resistant synthetic

Synthetic hair has come a long way over the years and now offers its wearers more styling choices. Purchasing a straight synthetic wig over a retextured wig (a wig with a predetermined style and curl pattern) can be curled to achieve a variety of styles and textures. The Luxurious Hair Boutique Lavish Signature Collection of synthetic wigs can be styled using the heat of a curling iron; however, there are other options to achieving long lasting curl, body and texture. Heated steam rollers are a great alternative to styling with an iron.

We recommend setting your unit with Caruso Professional ION Steam Hairsetter. These heated rollers come in a variety of sizes to achieve the style you are looking for. Using heated rollers on a synthetic unit gives a wonderful curl, with beautiful bounce without the need for sprays or running the risk of damaging the unit with heat. Steamed set curls resist frizzing due to humidity better than curls done with an iron. Overall, there are many ways to style your unit. It is best to try a few to see which works best for you and your unit.
