Can You Use Regular Shampoo on Human Hair Wigs

Of course, you can. Regular shampoos work for human hair wigs although they are a terrible choice for synthetic wigs.

While what we've said is correct, we will not recommend regular shampoo mainly because some contain ingredients human hair wigs do not fancy. We mentioned a few of these ingredients already in the last section.

These ingredients are not good and can lead to issues such as tangling and dryness.

But if you must, check what ingredients are included in the pack before using it. Good shampoos should have natural and nourishing ingredients; others that don't have them should be avoided.

If you have lace front wigs, silicone-based shampoos are not encouraged, too.

 

How often Should You Wash a Wig?

 

The number of times you wash your human hair wig depends on many factors. First, it depends on how many styling products you use. Also, it depends on how often you wear it.

For instance, if you wear it every day, you might need to wash it more frequently (once a week). That's because you want to avoid buildup in your hair. However, if you do not use a lot of creams and styling products, washing it once every two to three weeks is perfect. This should keep it fresh, odorless, and shiny.

Now that we've touched on some very key parts, let's check out the best shampoo for human hair wigs.
