How Often Should You Wash Your Wig?
Share
Washing your wig regularly is essential to keep it looking fresh and extend its
lifespan. However, washing too often can strip away natural oils and damage the
hair. Here’s a general guide:
- Frequency: Wash your wig every 10-15 wears, or when it starts to look dull, feels sticky, tangles easily, becomes dry, or smells. If you wear it daily, once every 1-2 weeks is usually enough.
- Signs it needs washing: Tangling, dryness, buildup from products or sweat, or loss of shine.
- Gentle care: Use wig-specific shampoos and conditioners to maintain softness and prevent damage.
Regular but careful washing keeps your wig looking its best without unnecessary wear.
