SYNTHETIC HAIR CARE
WE RECOMMEND WASHING YOUR SYNTHETIC HAIR EVERY 6-8 WEARS
Step 1: Detangle
Before you wash, make sure you
carefully detangle the hair using a wide tooth comb. Start from ends and work
toward the root to decrease shedding.
Step 2: Rinse
Use lukewarm water and rinse from roots
to ends.
Step 3: Shampoo
Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water, add about a 50p size of Synthetic wig shampoo to the water, then fully submerge your wig, gently dip and swirl the wig to clean.
If your wig has a hand-tied cap construction, its best not to submerge, but to loosen shampoo in your hands and work through the hair, making sure that the hair is travelling in the same direction. DO NOT rub hair as this may cause tangling.
Step 4: Rinse
Rinse thoroughly under cool running
water until water runs clear
Step 5: Condition
Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water, add about a 50p size of Synthetic wig conditioner to the water, then fully submerge your wig, gently dip and swirl the wig to condition.
If your wig has a hand-tied cap construction, its best not to submerge, but to gently lather the hair with a small amount of Synthetic Conditioner taking care not to go to near the hantied knots, also making sure that the hair is travelling in the same direction. Do NOT rub hair as this may cause tangling.
Step 6: Rinse
Let lukewarm water flow in the same
direction of the hair to avoid tangling. Squeeze and press the hair; do NOT
wring. Tip: Towel blot to remove excess water.
Step 7: Dry
Air dry on a folding wig stand, Do NOT BLOWDRY and Do NOT use heat to style synthetic fibre (curling irons, flat irons or blow dryers) this will damage your Synthetic wig
*if your wig is a Heat Stylable synthetic wig then please seek advice from your Parrucche consultant.
Tip:
Gently part the hair with a wide-tooth comb before wig dries
HUMAN HAIR CARE
WE RECOMMEND WASHING YOUR HUMAN HAIR EVERY 6-8 WEARS
PARRUCCHE DOES NOT
RECOMMEND COLORING OR CHEMICALLY ALTERING HUMAN HAIR. PLEASE CONTACT PARRUCCHE
WITH ANY QUESTIONS OR MORE OPTIONS
*Tangling/matting that
occurs after months of wear is due to improper care
Step 1: Detangle
Before you wash, make sure you
carefully detangle the hair using a wide tooth comb. Start from ends and work
toward the root to decrease shedding.
Step 2: Rinse
Use lukewarm water and rinse from roots to ends.
*Parrucche recommend
using Shampoo & Conditioners on your human hair wigs that are sulphate and
paraben free.
Step 3: Shampoo
Loosen shampoo, designed to be used on HUMAN HAIR, in your hands and work through the hair while making sure that the hair is travelling in the same direction. DO NOT rub hair as this may cause tangling
Step 4: Rinse
Rinse thoroughly in cool running water
until the water runs clear
Step 5: Condition
Apply Conditioner designed to be used on HUMAN HAIR, avoiding the base of the wig or hairpiece (applying conditioner to the base/cap may weaken the knots). Using your fingers, work conditioner through mid-lengths and ends for 3-5 minutes. Leave in for a few minutes before rinsing. Tip: If dry or damaged, use a deep conditioner
Step 6: Rinse
Let lukewarm water flow in the same direction of the hair to avoid tangling. Squeeze and press the hair; do NOT wring.
Step 7: Dry
Towel blot to remove excess water, then gently remove any tangles using your Paddle Brush or Wide Tooth Comb. If possible leave to about 80% dry before styling. If blowdrying dry the inside of cap to tighten hair knots. Before styling the hair, spray with a heat protection spray and if using heat try not to go above 140 degrees especially on blonde based colours. When brushing be gentle and go from bottom up as pulling at hair will contribute to shedding.
*Human hair must be dried and styled after washing. Solely air-drying will leave the hair ‘un-polished’ and can trap water in the hair causing frizzing
NOTES
All human hair wig colours will fade, this is due to an oxidization process that happens in the environment, this will normally occur within the first few months of wear.
If colouring patch test first as the hair will take differently to colouring your own hair; note generally human hair can be darkened and not lightened due to previous hair processes.
