HOW TO CARE FOR BRAID WIGS

A lot of ladies have accepted the braid wig trend, not just because it's stressfree, it's also a good buy given that braid wigs can last as long as you want it to before replacing it.
Since I started making wigs, I discovered that it is proper  maintenance that determines the durability of  your wigs. 

Most times, some ladies are faced with a major challenge on how to care properly for their hair units, a weave or a wig . However, caring for our hair units is a vital part of our slayage ( is that even a word ??) and shouldn't be very difficult to do. It's best to see your hair units as investments and your investments(wigs/weave) should be adequately taken care of  regardless of the cost.

Braid wigs are easy to maintain without much hassles (because that's the whole point of owning a wig. No stress!)

EASY STEPS TO CARE FOR BRAID WIGS

• Trim the frayed hairs on the each braid first with a pair of scissors. 
• Dip the braid halfway through into a bowl of hot water to straighten the tips.
• Massage a generous amount of hair mousse on the braids, when it's still wet to make it firm when it dries .
• Allow it to dry naturally, make sure to avoid using heat as that would melt the extensions .
• Spray on some oil sheen.

 Voila ! your wig is set for another day in town.

NB: It's advisable to place your wigs on a mannequin head, instead of nails as that would lead to a damaged wig sooner than later.

Also, if you normally tie up your braid wig , because of heat, try  loosening it after each wear.

Ps; seek professional help from your stylist if it's too much work for you.
