How to Prevent & Remove Static Electricity From Human Hair Wig & Synthetic Wig?
It's possible to make life easier and revolutionize it with new technology. Our appreciation for the electricity fairy's infinite possibilities is based on this. As long as the current is contained to a wire, an outlet, or a battery, we're all right.
It's a different story, however, when it comes to hair. Static electricity, a natural phenomenon that some people are familiar with, can be irritating when it is allowed to build upon your hair or in your wig. The fibers of synthetic wigs are particularly vulnerable to this activity, which can be compared to a nuclear power plant at times (plastic is fantastic for that). However, it also applies to real-world examples (and also your own hair). Our actions can counter this premature production of energy from alternative circuits in order to keep your human hair wig or synthetic wig's fibers from standing or bristling.
What is static electricity and why does it develop on wigs?
You can better understand your enemy if you know more about him. When we put on our white coats and goggles, our physics classes begin. Promised not to take long at all!
Friction between ions that are positively and negatively charged results in static electricity. There is an exchange of ions that creates an imbalance between positive and negative charges when you rub against something, like a garment. The pof and positive ions are then pumped into the hair.
When it's dry outside, you're more likely to see static electricity. During the colder months, the lack of moisture in the air makes it difficult for electricity to flow (it becomes static!). Objects, such as clothes, that have charges opposite to the hairs are attracted to them. This phenomenon affects fine hair more than coarse hair.
Tips to Remove Static Electricity From Your Synthetic & Human Hair Wigs
1. With A Conditioner
Dilute an after shampoo in cold water if your wig is synthetic, warm if it is natural. Dip your wig in it for a few moments, stirring it to make the product work. Conditioner compensates for the ion imbalance in the hair by creating negative charges. With this operation, you will reduce the risk of static electricity after washing.
2. With A Fabric Softener
Dilute with water a few drops of fabric softener in a spray bottle. Then spray on the fibers and smooth wick by strand with your hand. As with the conditioner, the fabric softener rebalances the ion load of your wig.
3. With A Wipe
This is the most convenient and simple solution when you are outdoors or your hair does not need to be washed. Pass a wipe for the dryer or anti-discoloration for the laundry in the hair of your wig. After a few passages, your wig will return to a normal appearance.
To Avoid electrification of hair
In order to avoid the appearance of static electricity on the hair:
Style your hair delicately. Sudden movements load the fiber.
Use antistatic plastic combs. Or prefer a metal comb or brush made of natural fiber (boar bristles).
Do not wear synthetic clothing, scarves or sweaters with a turtleneck.
Use an air humidifier at home or at work if you could to prevent the air from being too dry.
The case of smoothing brushes with ionic function on wigs:
We as your reliable wig company, have not tested this kind of accessory at the moment. In principle, the brush will produce negative ions to balance those that can be created by smoothing. However, as with all heating devices, be careful. The risk of tarnishing and damaging the fibers of your wig is very real.
