Human hair is not indestructible

Processing history varies. Colored and lightened units can be more vulnerable to heat and dryness.

Use heat protectant

Apply an appropriate product lightly and evenly. Heavy buildup can make the hair stiff or dull.

Work in sections

Smaller sections reduce the temptation to hold hot tools on the hair for long periods.

Protect the lace

Keep hot tools away from lace, elastic, and synthetic cap components. Damage to the base can end the useful life of an otherwise healthy wig.
