Lesson #1: Friendly Advice for Heat Friendly Care

Hi all! After our last post, I thought that it might be a good time to talk about how to properly care for your heat friendly styles-- we don't want you to ruin your beautiful new pastel piece! ;-)  Heat friendly styles are wonderful, as they offer so many ways to wear your hair-- whether it be straight, curly, or somewhere in between-- but, they require some special attention and care if you want to get the most out of your new 'do.

For a more visual version of this post, visit Teghan's video here! :-)  

Here are the basics:

• • Always pay attention to the heat setting on your styling tools. Heat friendly fibers can withstand low heat, but do NOT exceed 280 degrees Fahrenheit, or you will have a fried wig on your hands.
  • Only use a plastic, wide tooth comb  to brush your heat friendly piece. Bristles, especially metal, will strip the fibers of their properties and will ruin your wig.
  • 
  This Jon Renau Wide Tooth Comb is our personal favorite around the office! It can be purchased here
•  
  • Wash your style every 6-10 wears or as needed, using shampoo and conditioner intended for synthetic fibers.
• To shampoo:
• Fill a basin of mild shampoo and swish gently in water
• Rinse thoroughly in cold water
• Gently shake hairpiece out
• Drip dry
• Do not brush hairpiece when wet
• Brush into desired style when completely dry

• • We highly suggest using Jon Renau's Heat Defiant Smooth Detangler anytime you are wearing a heat friendly piece, this will keep your piece looking great and tangle-free!

It comes in two sizes, 8.5 fl oz and 2 fl oz.

• Optional, but highly recommended, we suggest using a heat protectant when styling your piece. This will help to prevent frizzing and keep your ends looking their best!

It comes in two sizes as well, 8.5 fl oz and 2 fl oz.
