We all have certain routines and products that we resort to in various situations with our own hair. One of the first lessons in learning how to care for a full lace wig is always about products. Many have learned the hard way that the products we use day to day for our hair is not what we will use on a full lace wig.

The simplest rule to remember is “no alcohol”.Products with alcohol dry out the hair, strip the natural oils from the hair and will cause damage that cannot be repaired. By selecting products based on ingredients you are always going to take the safe route and thus protect your investment.

Another rule to remember is less is more. The less of any product you put on the wig, the more it will respond in the manner you have grown to love it to. No matter what the product, there is a side effect or two. Some are good, but most have lingering side effects that do not always make the hair savvy. Inexpensive shampoos can even have ingredients in them that are not helpful to your hair. To be safe always buy quality products and use sparingly. By being an educated consumer, you can protect the investment and love you now call your hair.
