Are you guilty of over-washing your alternative hair? If so, it might be time to rethink your hair care routine. Unlike natural hair, alternative hairpieces such as wigs and toppers can’t absorb oils and nutrients from the scalp. So, how often should you wash them? Let’s dive into the details.
For daily use alternative hair, washing once a month is generally recommended. Surprised? You’re not alone. Many of my clients are amazed at how infrequently they need to wash their hairpieces to keep them looking and feeling great. As long as your hairpiece is wearing well, smelling fresh, and boosting your confidence, there’s no need to wash it more often.
When it comes to caring for your alternative hair, quality matters. I always recommend using salon-grade products exclusively. Once you make the switch to high-quality products, you’ll never look back. Trust me, the difference is noticeable.
Opt for hydrating products to replenish moisture since alternative hair doesn’t benefit from the natural oils produced by the scalp. Regular oiling between washes can also help maintain softness and shine.
To keep your alternative hair in top condition, don’t skimp on deep conditioning treatments. Treat your hairpieces to regular deep conditioning services to restore moisture and keep them looking their best. Your hair will thank you for it!
