Why Proper Hair Care Matters for Human Hair Wigs
Human hair wigs are a luxurious investment, offering unmatched natural beauty and versatility. However, without proper care, even the highest-quality wigs can lose their luster, tangle, or fray. At Ailsa’s, Edinburgh’s trusted wig specialists, we believe education is key to helping you preserve your wig’s beauty and lifespan.
Daily Care: Gentle Habits for Longevity
1. Brushing Basics
· Always use a wide-tooth comb or soft-bristle brush to detangle, starting from the ends and working upward.
· Avoid brushing when wet—hair is most fragile!
2. Washing Wisely
· Frequency: Wash every 10–15 wears or when exposed to sweat/product buildup.
· Technique: Use sulfate-free shampoo in lukewarm water. Gently massage, rinse thoroughly, and apply conditioner mid-lengths to ends.
3. Drying Done Right
· Pat dry with a microfiber towel—never rub!
· Air-dry on a wig stand to maintain shape.
Deep Conditioning: Restore Moisture & Shine
Human hair loses natural oils over time. Replenish moisture monthly with a deep conditioning treatment. Our Edinburgh clients love pairing Ailsa’s Repair Mask with a warm towel wrap for salon-worthy softness.

Styling Tips: Heat Safely, Protect Always
· Heat Tools: Use sparingly (max 180°C/356°F) and always apply a heat protectant.
· Avoid Over-Styling: Opt for heatless curls or braids to minimize damage.
· Product Caution: Skip heavy oils and alcohol-based sprays—they weigh hair down or cause dryness.
Storage Solutions: Keep Your Wig Pristine
· Store on a ventilated wig stand away from direct sunlight or humidity (Edinburgh’s damp weather demands this!).
· For travel, use a silk-lined storage bag to prevent friction.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
· Tangling? Spritz with a leave-in conditioner and gently detangle.
· Frizz? Apply a pea-sized drop of argan oil to smooth strands.
· Shedding? Avoid aggressive brushing and schedule a professional repair at our Edinburgh store.
