  1. Braid or tuck your hair and pin it up away from front, sides and nape of your head. If you choose to wear a wig cap liner, it will help to keep your hair in place.

  2. Hold cap at the front of your forehead, place the wig on your head and position at hairline. Pull cap back down around your head and make final adjustments.

  3. For a customized comfort fit, use the adjustable hook tabs at the back of your wig.

  4. Tuck in any stray hairs around the edges, underneath the cap. Style as desired.

Washing Your Wig

*I recommend washing your human hair wig or hairpieces every 6 - 8 wears, over time you will learn to follow your instinct when it is best to wash and maintain your wig.

  1. Before washing your human hair wig or hairpiece, gently remove any tangles using a paddle brush or wide tooth comb without tugging on the hair.

  2. Hold wig or hairpiece under cool to luke warm running water so hair is traveling in the same direction. Apply a small amount of shampoo designed for human hair and gently lather the hair with shampoo while making sure the hair continues to travel in the same direction. You do not want to rub the hair, particularly in the wrong direction, as this will cause tangles.

  3. Rinse thoroughly with cool water until it runs clear.

  4. Apply conditioner only on hair, avoiding the base cap of wig or hairpiece. (applying conditioner on base may weaken knots).

  5. With fingers, work conditioner through the ends of the hair for about 3 - 5 minutes.

  6. Rinse thoroughly in cold to luke warm water until the water runs clear.

Drying & Styling

  1. You’ve got this.Wrap wig or hairpiece in a towel and gently pat to remove excess water.

  2. DO NOT use a brush to detangle your human hair wig while it is wet, gently use a wide tooth comb.

  3. Let the hair completely dry, this will protect and ensure the longevity of the wig. However, you can use a digital setting hair dryer at lower temperature settings of not more than 350 degrees.

  4. Apply a small amount of Leave In Conditioner or Treatment Mist to the hair only (not the lace or cap), let it dry and style as you wish.

  5. Store your wig on a wig stand or form that is smaller than the base of the cap to prevent the cap from stretching.

  6. Direct sunlight will fade the hair so avoid storing your wig where it will be exposed to light.

  7. Do not wear your hairpiece while sleeping. It may result in hair loss, breakage and matting. If you do, a silk/satin bonnet or pillow case is required.

  8. Lighter hair colors are more delicate than darker colors because additional processing is needed to achieve the light colors.

  9. Over time, your wig will lose hair. This is a natural part of the life cycle of your wig.

  10. Avoid contact with chlorinated water, sea water and hot water to avoid damage to your wig.

Understanding Your Hair Type

Curl Patterns: Identify your curl pattern, which can range from loose waves (Type 2) to tight coils (Type 4). Understanding your curl type will help you choose the right products and styling techniques.

Porosity: Determine your hair's porosity (low, normal, or high). This will guide you in selecting the right products for moisture retention.

Hair Care Routine

Shampoo and Conditioner: Use sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for curly hair. Shampoo less frequently to prevent drying out your hair.

Cowashing-: Co-washing (conditioner-only washing) can help maintain moisture and reduce frizz.

Deep Conditioning: Apply a deep conditioner at least once a week to keep your curls hydrated and healthy.

Drying Your Hair :Avoid Towel-Drying: Traditional towels can cause frizz. Use a microfiber towel or a cotton T-shirt to gently squeeze excess water from your hair.

Air Drying: Whenever possible, allow your hair to air dry to minimize heat damage.

Diffusing: Use a diffuser attachment on your hairdryer to evenly distribute heat and enhance curls without causing frizz.

Protective Styles :Consider protective styles like braids, twists, buns or wigs to reduce manipulation and heat exposure, allowing your hair to thrive.

Nighttime Care :Sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase to prevent friction and reduce frizz. You can also use a satin bonnet or scarf to protect your curls.

Trims :Regular trims (every 8-12 weeks) are essential to prevent split ends and maintain the shape of your curls.

Avoid Heat: Minimize the use of heat styling tools such as straighteners and curling irons, as excessive heat can damage your curls.

Protect Your Hair from Environmental Factors: Shield your hair from extreme weather conditions (e.g., sun, wind, and humidity) by using appropriate products.

Experiment and Be Patient: Finding the right products and techniques for your hair may take time. Be patient, and don't be afraid to experiment to discover what works best for you.

Seek Professional Help: If you're unsure about your hair type or need personalized advice, consult a curly hair specialist or a hairstylist experienced with curly hair.

Stay Hydrated and Eat a Balanced Diet: Healthy hair starts from the inside. Drink plenty of water and consume a diet rich in vitamins and minerals that promote hair health.

●Remember, every curly head is unique, so it's important to tailor your hair care routine to suit your specific needs. With the right care and attention, you can embrace and enhance your natural curls, creating a beautiful and healthy head of hair.●

The LOC Method

The LOC method is a popular and effective technique for moisturizing and sealing in moisture for natural and curly hair types. LOC stands for "Liquid, Oil, Cream," and it's a simple three-step process used to maintain and maximize hair hydration. The LOC method is particularly beneficial for individuals with curly, coily, or kinky hair textures that tend to be more prone to dryness and frizz.

Here's a breakdown of each step in the LOC method:

Liquid (L):

Start with a water-based or water-rich leave-in conditioner or a water-based spray. This provides the initial moisture to your hair.

The liquid can be plain water, a water-based leave-in conditioner, or a hair mist specifically formulated for your hair type.

Oil (O):

Apply a natural oil (or a combination of oils) to your hair. Common choices include coconut oil, olive oil, jojoba oil, argan oil, or castor oil.

The oil helps to lock in the moisture provided by the liquid step and prevents it from evaporating too quickly. It also adds an extra layer of protection to your hair.

Cream (C):

Finish the LOC method by applying a creamy, moisture-rich product such as a hair butter, curl cream, or styling cream. These products help to seal the moisture and oil in your hair, promoting softness and manageability.

Look for products that are suitable for your hair type and contain natural, nourishing ingredients.

Here's how to apply the LOC method:

Start with freshly washed and conditioned hair. If you're not washing your hair, you can also use the LOC method on damp, revitalized hair.

Divide your hair into sections to ensure even application of each product.

Begin with the liquid step by spraying or applying a water-based leave-in conditioner to each section.

Follow up with the oil step by applying your chosen oil(s) to each section. Focus on the ends of your hair, which tend to be the driest.

Finish by applying the cream step, ensuring it's distributed evenly throughout your hair.

Style your hair as desired, whether that involves twists, braids, a wash-and-go, or another style that suits your hair type.

Allow your hair to air dry or use a diffuser if you prefer to use a hairdryer.

The LOC method is an excellent way to maintain moisture and reduce frizz in curly, coily, and kinky hair types. However, keep in mind that individual hair needs vary, so you may need to adjust the products and the frequency of use based on your unique hair type and concerns.
