How to Travel with Your Wig

How to Travel with Your Wig

Traveling with your wig doesn’t have to be stressful — a few small steps can make sure she arrives just as flawless as you.

Packing Your Wig

  • Use a satin bag or a silk-lined pouch to protect the hair from friction.
  • If you’re carrying multiple wigs, use separate pouches or place tissue paper inside each wig to help maintain shape.
  • For longer trips, consider a foldable wig stand so you can properly air it out once you reach your destination.

Avoid Crushed Hairlines

  • To avoid flattening the lace or denting the hairline, don’t tightly fold your wig. Lay it in a curve inside your carry-on or handbag.
  • Never stuff it in a checked-in suitcase without padding — the pressure can cause irreversible creasing or damage.

Humidity & Weather Care

  • Protect your wig from extreme weather conditions by adjusting your styling accordingly (protective braids or a loose bun work well for travel days).

Pro Tip

  • Always carry it in your hand luggage — just like your makeup or jewelry, your wig is too precious to risk losing.
