  • Rinse the shampoo out.
  • Condition your hairpiece with conditioner selected by your stylist. Be sure and focus on the ends and avoid your scalp. Leave conditioner in for 2-3 minutes and rinse out the conditioner.

Can I Use Hair Products And Hot Tools To Style My Hair?

You can use styling creme, wax, or any product your stylist and you determine is best for your hair replacement system and texture.

As far as hot tools or blow drying your hair is concerned, use the tools you normally would to style your hair.

Here Are Some Tips To Get The Most Out Of Your Style::

  • Apply your choice of product in your hair before styling.
  • Using medium heat, dry closer to the root first for comfort.
  • If you only style from the outside, and the weft or base of your piece is still damp, your hairstyle will not hold.
  • If you have a permanent wave in your human hair, dry minimally, not combing. This will cause your permanent to frizz.
  • Drying your hair system with your head partially upside down will help to give it volume. If you want a straighter, sleeker look, don’t blow dry your system upside down.
  • A flat hair system that doesn’t have movement will tend to look really fake, giving you a more artificial look.
  • Brush it into a semi-style and finish drying with a roll brush or blow dryer brush. You can backcomb or tease to create height, and finish styling.
