How to Revamp Your Human Hair Wigs?

Revamping a human hair wig can breathe new life into it, making it look fresh, soft, and natural again. Whether your wig is tangled, dull, or losing its shape, a proper revamp will restore its beauty. Here’s a complete step-by-step guide:

1. Detangle the Wig

  • Place the wig on a mannequin head or lay it flat.

  • Use a wide-tooth comb or wig brush, starting from the ends and working your way up.

  • Be gentle to avoid shedding or breakage.

2. Wash the Wig

  • Fill a basin with lukewarm water and add a small amount of sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoo.

  • Turn the wig inside out and submerge it.

  • Swish gently, avoiding rough scrubbing.

  • Rinse thoroughly with clean lukewarm water.

👉 Tip: If the wig has heavy product build-up, let it soak for 5–10 minutes.

3. Deep Condition

  • Apply a hydrating conditioner or hair mask generously, focusing on mid-lengths to ends.

  • Comb through with a wide-tooth comb to spread evenly.

  • Cover with a plastic cap or wrap in a towel for 20–30 minutes.

  • Rinse thoroughly with cool water to seal the cuticle.

4. Restore Shine & Softness

  • Apply a few drops of lightweight natural oil (like argan or jojoba) or a leave-in conditioner.

  • Avoid applying too much near the roots to keep the wig from looking greasy.

5. Blow-Dry or Air-Dry

  • For a sleek finish, blow-dry on low heat with a round brush.

  • To minimize heat damage, you can air-dry the wig on a stand for natural volume.

6. Restyle

  • Use heat styling tools (flat iron, curling wand) on a low to medium setting.

  • Always apply a heat protectant spray before styling.

  • Trim any split or frizzy ends to refresh the look.

7. Revamp the Lace & Parting

  • Clean any glue or makeup off the lace with rubbing alcohol or lace cleaner.

  • Re-pluck the hairline for a more natural look if needed.

  • Use foundation or lace tint to match your scalp tone.

8. Optional: Color Refresh

  • If the wig has faded, you can dye it back to its original shade or add new highlights/lowlights.

  • Always use professional hair dye for human hair wigs and deep condition afterward.

 

✨ Extra Tips to Keep Your Wig Revamped Longer:

  • Store on a wig stand to keep its shape.

  • Wash every 7–10 wears (or sooner if product builds up).

  • Avoid sleeping or swimming with the wig on.

  • Use silk/satin materials to reduce friction.
