The human hair wig is more natural than the synthetic hair wig, so a lot of people prefer to purchase a human hair wig. However, many wearers are not familiar with the skills of how to style a human hair wig. Here we have some tips and tricks for you to style your human hair wig.

Tips and tricks to style a human hair wig.

1. Detangle the human hair wig

Firmly secure the wig on a wig stand or mannequin head by using T-pins or other methods, which makes it easier to detangle the wig. If the human hair is very long, you can set the wig stand or mannequin on the edge of the table and let the hair fall down naturally. It will be best to fix the wig stand or mannequin on the table or somewhere to let your hands free.

Divide the hair into several sections according the hair density by using hair claw clips. You can focus on one section to start with, then from one section to another until all sections are detangled. If human hair wigs are straight wigs, you can choose a hair brush to detangle the wig, a metal brush we recommend. Gently brush the wig from the hair ends and work your way up to the roots. In this way, you will minimize hair pulling, which causes damage and breakage to the wig. An important thing to note is that you can only use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to detangle a curly or wavy texture wig, which helps to avoid damage to the texture.

If it is very tough to detangle the human hair wig with brush and combs, you’d better start to remove the tangles with your fingers. You can apply a hair conditioner or spray softener specially designed for human hair wigs on the hair to assist in detangling the wig if you still can’t remove the tangles.

2. Heat-styling hairstyles

There are a lot of hairstyles that must be styled by using heat-styling tools, such as curling iron and straightening iron. What calls for special attention is that you must make sure your curling iron or straightening iron is thermostatically controlled if you want a heat-styling hairstyle. Although your wig can support heat styling, you should try to avoid constant heat treatments, because excessive heat can cause irreversible damage to the wig. Before using the heat-styling tools you’d better uniformly spray a heat-protectant spray onto the hair. This product will help to lock in moisture and form a protective film to protect the human hair from heat damage.

The human straight hair wig is very convenient for wearers to style. you can straighten the hair when the hair is not straight. Just separate the hair into several sections and then straighten each section one by one. When you want to achieve a curly or wavy style, you can use curling iron to make curls. There are many different sizes of curling iron to make various curly styles, the quick-to-install wand curling iron set is recommended if you are keen on changeable hairstyles.

For the human kinky curly wig or body wavy wig, you can use a curling iron to keep the curls of the wig. If you don’t think the wig is curly enough, you can use the curling iron to make it more curly. It's better not to use a straightening iron on it, which will damage the curls and you can’t bring it back to its initial appearance. Please wear insulated gloves when you use the heat-styling tools to avoid scalds and keep the tools on a low heat to avoid heat damage.
