What Causes Wigs to Deform & How to Fix?
Human hair wigs are also considered a significant investment for many people, and proper care may last for a long time. However, some beginners are unfamiliar with the storage and care of wigs, and improper operation can lead to wig deformation. If there were no better handling methods, this wig would not be usable, it would be a huge loss. It would be great if we could save a deformed wig. Before saving, we should confirm whether the hair is deformed or the mesh is deformed, and also know why the wig is deformed. There are many reasons for wig deformation, including improper storage, rough handling, heating, incorrect cleaning methods, and so on. If your wig is deformed, you should first evaluate its degree of damage and carefully observe whether the wig deformation is severe. The deformation is relatively slight and can be self repaired with some simple techniques. Let's take a look at how to fix it!
What Causes Wigs to Deform & How to Fix?
Hair deformation
The rescue method for hair deformation is very simple. Wet the wig with warm water and choose a gentle shampoo. Wash the hair in the direction of the hair with foam, and then rinse it thoroughly with warm water.
After washing, choose a absorbent towel to gently dry the water. Do not repeatedly rub or pull the hair with a towel, as it can easily cause knots and hair loss.
At this point, fix the wig on the model's head, and you can re shape your hair.
If the degree of hair deformation is small, simply comb the hairstyle by hand and let it dry. If the hair is severely deformed, it is necessary to use a hair dryer and a round comb to reshape the hair.
Take a strand of hair and gently comb it down on a round hair comb. At the same time, use a hair dryer to blow the hair on the round hair comb until the entire head is dry. Alternatively, it is possible to directly use a straight clamp.
Deformation of mesh bottom
If the wig mesh bottom is deformed, it is difficult to handle, especially if the material is not good, the wig mesh bottom is easily deformed, and there is a possibility of shrinkage or looseness. Slight deformation can be achieved by using wig brackets, model heads, etc. to support the bottom of the wig mesh. If there is no replacement, use grapefruit, bottle bottoms, newspapers, etc., or simply wear it on your head. It can be corrected in 2 to 3 days. If the deformation of the mesh bottom is severe or even slightly damaged, it is still advisable to seek professional help directly. Wig manufacturers or wig experts have more professional knowledge and technology to help you correctly repair the wig mesh without further damage.
The best way to fix wig deformation is to solve the problem from the root and not let it deform.
1. Properly stored
When you are not wearing your wig, it is best to store it on a wig holder to help maintain its shape. If there is no wig holder, the wig can also be stored in a hair net or silk bag.
2. Gently handle wigs
When you wear or remove it, do not excessively pull on the mesh and hair. At the same time, try to reduce the number of times you use a hair dryer or straight hair clip for wigs, as this can cause hair damage. After all, hair lacks the nutritional supply of the human body and cannot repair itself.
3. Properly clean wigs
When cleaning wigs, use gentle shampoo and conditioner. When washing hair, follow the direction of the hair and avoid rubbing, rubbing, or pulling the hair back and forth. Finally, thoroughly rinse the shampoo and conditioner on top of the wig to ensure there is no residue accumulation, otherwise it may cause damage to the hair over time.
