For all those who wear synthetic hair, I have a really important question to ask you. How long does your hairstyle last before you must invest into another wig? For most, you would think it would be around 6-8 months depending on the quality and how often you wore it each day. There are some people out there that are able to make their synthetic wigs last for months on end. What is their secret? They use synthetic hair care and synthetic wig products that are made specifically for their hair type. Need a little direction in finding the best ones? Take a look below at our favorites.
BeautiMark's Synthetic Wig Care Line
Because we know synthetic hair care more than anyone, we actually have a full blown synthetic hair line right on our website! The BeautiMark line has everything you need to keep your synthetic hair in check. The 10-piece set comes with a Paraben Free shampoo, leave-in conditioner, style & hold spray, shining serum, and shaping crème. What do you need all these for?
Essentially, these products are best for keeping your synthetic hair wigs looking the same. Think about it. Synthetic hair is a fiber that is manipulated to look a certain way. As soon as that curl pattern fades or that hair gets too tangled---you might as well kiss your synthetic wig good bye. The BeautiMark kit also comes with a wig stand, wig cap, gripper, comb, and sweat liner. If you’re looking to take the guess work out of which products to use, just get this whole kit.
Can I Use Fabric Softener On A Wig?
I bet you weren’t expecting to see this when finding out the best synthetic wig products, did you? Well, after doing some digging, I made this discovery—some women have used fabric softener to help maintain their synthetic wig and make it last longer. In fact, the fabric softener apparently acts very similar to a synthetic hair conditioner by giving the hair some life and getting rid of the static that causes the hair to tangle up. It’s as easy as adding a ½ cup of fabric softener to ½ cup of cold water, and spraying onto your hair at night before you walk out the door. While we recommend the BeautiMark products, if you are on a budget this might be a good option!
