What does Revamping a Wig Mean?

How to Restore a Human Hair Wig in 6 Steps

The first step in revamping any wig be it curly, straight, or bouncing curl is to detangle.

STEP 1

DETANGLING

Detangling wigs can be a delicate process to avoid damaging hair fibers. Here are some steps you can follow to safely detangle a wig:

1. Gather the necessary tools: You will need a wide-toothed comb or a wig brush with soft bristles, a wig stand or a mannequin head, and a spray bottle filled with water or a wig detangling spray.
2. Place the wig on a wig stand or a mannequin head: This will help you work on the wig more easily and prevent any tugging or pulling that can occur when detangling it while it’s being worn.
3. Spray the wig with a detangling spray:  use a specifically formulated wig detangling spray. This will help soften the hair and make it easier to comb through, alternatively, you can detangle at dry state.
4. Start detangling from the ends: Hold the wig at the base or the cap and gently comb through the ends of the hair with you’re a detangle brush(picture 1). Start from the tips and work your way up gradually to the roots. Avoid pulling or yanking on the hair to prevent breakage.
5. Use a gentle combing motion: Use a gentle combing motion, working your way up the length of the hair until the entire wig is detangled.
6. Work on stubborn tangles: If you encounter any particularly stubborn tangles, you can apply a small amount of wig conditioner or detangling spray to the specific area and gently work through it with your fingers or a wide-toothed comb.
7. Repeat the process if necessary: If the wig is severely tangled, you may need to repeat the detangling process a few times until all the knots and tangles are removed.
8. In detangling the frontal area for wigs with frontal, use tail comb to work through it gently.
9. Let the wig air dry: Once you have finished detangling the wig, allow it to air dry naturally if you applied detangling spray. Avoid using heat styling tools or blow dryers, as excessive heat can damage synthetic fibers or alter the style of human hair wigs.

Remember, patience is key when detangling wigs. Take your time, be gentle, and avoid using excessive force to prevent any damage to the wig’s hair fibers

STYLING

Styling wigs after revamping is an essential step to ensure the wig looks natural, flattering, and fits well with your desired look. Our styling process includes:

Trimming and Shaping if the wig is too long or has an uneven cut, we trim it to your desired length and shape.

Heat Styling: Many synthetic wigs are heat-resistant up to a certain temperature. If the wig is heat-friendly, we can use a low-heat setting on a curling iron or flat iron to add curls or waves. We ensure to always do a heat test on a small strand of hair first to avoid damaging the wig.

Curling or Straightening: Use rollers or curling iron to add curls or waves to curly or bouncing wigs.

Styling Products: We use styling products designed specifically for wigs, such as wig-friendly hairspray, mousse, or serums. These products will help hold the style and maintain the wig’s appearance without damaging the fibers.

Remember that proper care and maintenance are crucial to preserving the style and lifespan of your wig. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for washing, storing, and caring for your wigs.
