Life poses many risks and
hazards. A crack in the pavement waiting to snatch at your heal for instance,
or a speed bump waiting to spill your morning coffee, or running out of coffee!
Now that you wear a wig you will need to take care of some of the little things
in life that may be a mishap waiting to happen. For your benefit and the
benefit of your wig it is advisable to know some of the hazards that may lie
ahead so you can prevent any damage from occurring and keep your wig with you
for as long as you wish to have it.

Your jewellery can get knotted
up with the hair on your wig. It certainly would spoil a nice occasion if your
earrings got tangled into the strands of wig hair. If your wig hairs are
already a bit knotted and if you are donning a long cut, the risk of your wig
latching onto jewellery will be increased. Be careful, even if you’re running
late you won’t want to accidentally pull your necklace into your wig cap. Now
that you wear a wig be sure to dress and undress in a well-lit room and use a
mirror to not make any mistakes.
* Hoodies and jackets
Sometimes the hood part of a
hoodie gets pulled into the neck. If you already find that frustrating, imagine
the same hoodie pulling off your wig because you were in a rush when you took
it off. Remove your hoodie carefully by firmly stretching the 'collar' while
pulling it carefully over your head.

With exposure to strong
sunlight, wigs can lose their vibrant colours. Sweat also causes discolouration.
On sunny days a spray-on, leave-in conditioner is your wig's best protection.
Also be sure to wash your wig after every 4-5 uses.
* Sand and sea
Many people prefer to keep
their full lace human hair wigs on at the beach, and even in the water. Warning. Sand gets in
everything, it will creep its way into crevices and onto the glue holding your
wig’s hairs together. Be sure to wash thoroughly after every trip to the beach.
Rinse your wig with freshwater immediately if it has been exposed salts from
salt water!
* The wrong care products
Using a blow dryer is one of
the biggest no-no’s in the wig world. The hot air will loosen the glue holding
the wig hairs in place. A regular hair comb can pull out your wig’s hair
leaving you with a bald cap. Laying your wig down just anywhere to dry can
leave you with a knotted nightmare you’ll be sure to regret.
* Washing the wrong way
While you’ll find that the way
you washed your hair is much the same as the way you wash your wig, there are
some minor differences. Procedure is everything when it comes to washing. Brush
your wig before you wash to tackle any difficult tangles. Hold your wig
upside-down under the tap and you'll be welcoming back those knots. Never wash
a wig in hot water or you’ll have a sink or basin filled with Cousin Itt from
the Adams Family.
While life’s little dangers can
not always be avoided, you can take precautions and prevent unnecessary harm to
your wig. Establish a few simple routines, arm yourself with a little
knowledge, and look after your human hair wigs. At Joseph’s
