Thanks to its quality, realistic look and durability, it can keep all its splendour for many months, or even several years with proper care. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just like your own hair, natural hair needs attention and regular care to preserve its softness, shine and flexibility.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"aspect-ratio:auto;width:405px;height:240px\"

uagb-block-59e245e9\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Why is care so important?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike hair that grows naturally on the scalp, a wig doesn&#8217;t benefit from the natural oils the scalp produces.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regular care helps you:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Preserve the hair&#8217;s softness<br\/>\u2714 Prevent dryness<br\/>\u2714 Reduce tangles and frizz<br\/>\u2714 Maintain a natural look<br\/>\u2714 Extend your wig&#8217;s lifespan<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-0ce4760a\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>How often should you wash your wig?<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The frequency depends on how often you wear it.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a general rule, we recommend washing every 1 to 2 weeks, or after several regular wears.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Washing too often can dry out the hair, while a lack of care can lead to product residue build-up.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-9396b9ee\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>How to wash your wig ?<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 1: Detangle gently<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before washing, detangle the hair with a wide-tooth comb.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always start at the ends and work your way up gradually towards the roots.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2: Use a gentle shampoo<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wash the hair in lukewarm water with a gentle shampoo, ideally sulfate-free.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Distribute the product gently along the lengths without rubbing too hard.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3: Rinse thoroughly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rinse thoroughly to remove all shampoo residue.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-47da555a\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>The essential step: the hydrating mask<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After each wash, apply a nourishing mask along the lengths.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This step is essential to maintain:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2728 The hair&#8217;s hydration <br\/>\u2728 Its flexibility <br\/>\u2728 Its natural softness <br\/>\u2728 Its shine<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Treatments with argan oil, coconut oil, avocado oil or keratin are especially popular.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-ae9d08ae\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>How to dry your wig<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Air drying remains the best option.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We recommend:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Placing the wig on a wig stand<br\/>\u2714 Letting it air dry<br\/>\u2714 Avoiding excessive heat<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you use a hair dryer, opt for low to medium heat.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-524cf887\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>How to prevent tangles?<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few simple habits will keep the hair smooth and flowing:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Detangle the hair regularly<br\/>\u2714 Use a wide-tooth comb<br\/>\u2714 Avoid sleeping with the wig on whenever possible<br\/>\u2714 Limit excessive friction<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Long, wavy or curly hair generally requires extra attention.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-1858a9ef\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>Can you use heat styling tools?<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Natural hair wigs can be straightened or curled.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, we recommend:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Using a heat protectant<br\/>\u2714 Avoiding very high temperatures<br\/>\u2714 Limiting repeated heat styling<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These precautions help preserve the quality of the hair fibre.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-27a5fe27\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>Can you dye a natural hair wig?<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Premium natural hair can generally be dyed or customised.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the best result while preserving the hair&#8217;s quality, it&#8217;s advisable to leave chemical treatments to a professional.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-8c5af3fb\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>How to store your wig<\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you&#8217;re not wearing it:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2714 Place it on a suitable stand<br\/>\u2714 Store it in a clean, dry place<br\/>\u2714 Avoid storing it while it&#8217;s still damp<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Proper storage helps preserve its shape and quality.<\/p>\n\n<div
