"Wash it by filling the hand basin with warm water and a capful of fabric conditioner (yes the stuff you use in the laundry) and swirl it in the water. Then drain the water, refill with clean warm water and swirl again. Keep changing the water till it's clear. Then lift out and hold it under the cap so the hair falls down and gently, following the fall of the hair, squeeze excess water out. Then put a towel on the floor, lay the wig out on it and roll the towel up folding it over the wig. Then press gently - don't roll or rub it or you'll tangle it. Unroll and reroll in a dry bit of towel. Keep doing this till you can't press any more liquid put. The next bit depends on what the wig is made of, if it's human hair you can use any styling aids including straighteners and heated rollers. If it's synthetic be careful with the higher heat. Drape it over your hand and shake the hair into place. Gently, using a wide tooth comb get any tangles out. Then set a hairdryer onto a gentle setting and blast most of the wet out. It's easier over your hand because you'll feel the temperature and more air can get all around it. Then you will want to think about styling it. If you have a wigform pin it on and you can use curlers or a hairdryer and brush to style it. If not then you will have to improvise. As long as it's mostly dry you find an old bedside lamp works - do not switch it on!!! Pad the top with towels to make a head shape, fasten the top one down then you can pin your wig on and style." That's amazing thx I will try that | |||

"Use detangle spray on it! If left for a long period of time leave in a airtight bag but spray first as it keeps the wig moist. " Thank you xx | |||

"Look out for afro carribbean shops as they sell lots of wigs at much better prices than traditional wig shops. You can try them on too. One near me has natural hair starting at about 35 quid! Sometimes even grocery shops have a hair care and wig section at the back." Oh there's one like that in newcastle , think I will pop in today x | |||

"I wear wigs a lot (for my job) The above is great advice. I'd also recommend Olive Oil Spray for giving dull wigs a bit of a sheen. Can be bought at wig shops quite cheaply. As for wigs...some synthetics are good. Real hair is damn expensive. Ebay is great resource. Styling, shake it out, backcomb the roots, pin back the fringe, use accessories, pin it up, trim it a little just do something. Nothing worse than a bag fresh wig " Ooooo that sounds interesting, what job requires a wig lol?!?! | |||
