Before diving in, gently detangle those locks with our handy Tangle Comb from the 5-Pc. Styling Comb and Brush Set.

Next, prepare a bowl bath for your wig using cold water and a capful of our trusty Wig Shampoo.

Let your wig soak for a few minutes, then gently swirl it around without rubbing or wringing. After that, rinse it thoroughly under cool running water.

Now comes the drying part: carefully lay your colored wigs on a soft towel and pat it dry. For your lovely, luxurious wigs, consider using a Wig Drying Stand for support.

To give your wig that extra oomph, give it a spritz of our revitalizing Wig Conditioner, then let it air dry naturally at room temperature, away from harsh sunlight.

And voila! Your colored wig is now ready to shine brightly and beautifully once again.

Pro Tip: Keep an extra colored wig on hand to allow for proper cleaning time.
