If your synthetic wig is heat resistant you can dip it in boiling water it melts the fried ends back smooth and silky! Has saved many of my wigs then I do the silicone mix treatment or fabric softener soak (rinse well) only con to the boiling method it will straighten your wig if it’s curly but I just re do the curls

So I'm semi brand new to wigs. New enough to have spent a lot of money on human hair blends that lasted me 3 months and had to toss and get a new one... 😫 I'm about to order a synthetic wig from Kryssma and I love it so much that I want to do everything I can to keep it as long as I can. I do wear my wigs 24/7 so I expect it to not last as long. But I've seen people talk about years! So I'm doing my research before I order my next one. Now, I have gone through endless products to protect and care for my wigs. I usually let my wig air dry and I'll straighten it with a Chi flat iron once it is dry. So I'm asking (begging) for professional advice. My normal routine with my wigs consist of washing it at least twice a week. I use shampoos and conditioners without harsh chemicals. Always use cold water. Once I'm done washing it, I treat it with a heat protector and leave-in conditioner. Normally, my wigs turn out to be super soft but only for the first day...lol. Because of tangling, I tend to brush my wigs a lot. I hate the tangled look. But friction happens. But no matter what I do, nothing seems to stop my wigs from looking fried. I'm not sure if it has to do with the fact that they have been human hair blends or what but I really want to keep my new wig in its best shape and not have to keep throwing them away from going beyond repairable... I've seen so many different ways, techniques and products and I just want to know the best way to care for a synthetic wig that is being worn 24/7. Please help!
@JesseMSimons Жыл бұрын
I wouldn't recommend getting that brand especially coming from human hair there are a lot of things you can do to prolong the wear of your synthetic wigs but they are definitely not going to wear as well or as long as a human hair wig will. You also want to try to avoid over brushing synthetic wigs and you would want a good wig spray made for synthetic wigs since most of the products you have are probably specifically made for human hair. If you look at my playlist how to make a wig look natural there are a lot of videos there that will help you maintain your wigs. I have a waist spray that you can order right underneath any one of my videos. Also make sure you have a wig brush that is specifically made for wigs. I hope that helps if you need further help you can always reach out to me at wigsupport@jmsimons.com.

If it’s a heat safe wig I would recommend adding this product directly to the wig and then wrapping it in some foil or Saran Wrap then use a blow dryer to warm up the ends of the hair that are fried/damaged. I let it warm up then sit on there for 30 mins. After make sure you rinse super,super, super well. That should help a lot more with the ends of the wig. I just did this like this to one that was so bad and it’s like new now. I will be making an updated video soon! 😊

No. The reason being is synthetic fibers do not absorb products like hair would so you use the silicone mix because it coats the fibers with that silicone that’s in the conditioning treatment where as a normal leave in conditioner is going to have things in it that are meant to be absorbed by your hair. Hope that makes sense.

No it holds the curl pattern ot has as long as you use cool water and then if you need to recurl or refresh the curls you can use a heat tool on a low temp to do so. The biggest challenge with curling synthetic wigs is letting the curl set and cool before you let it fall.

@JesseMSimons It seemed like suddenly the left side of a plain synthetic wig had suddenly gone frizzy and stiff. I hadn't had it very long, and the rest was still soft. I had NO idea why. Was it because I'd sprayed it with hairspray? I washed it as gently as usual with wig shampoo. Nothing. Then, as I was watching videos earlier about trying to get rid of frizz, improving the look, etc. He said since high heat damages synthetic wigs, that when one opens a hot oven, the rush of hot air can damage! I noticed that when I open the oven and forget to wait, I always turn my head towards the left and get a BLAST of steamy HOT air, 450° last night, on the right WHERE the damage is! I am SOOOOOOOOO GLAD to find that out! It makes absolute sense! I'll blast that side of my wig more than once while baking and have frizzed them up on the left. Taahhh dah!
