Proper Usage & Care Guidelines

1. Before First Wear

• Gently detangle with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers, starting from the tips and working up to the roots.
• Co-wash (conditioner-only wash) if desired to refresh the unit before installation.
• Use a wig cap that matches your skin tone for the most natural finish under lace units.
• For HD lace frontals and closures, we recommend professional installation for the best melt.

2. Installation Guidelines

• Prep your scalp: cleanse, moisturise and lay your edges or braids flat before installing.
• If using adhesive, apply thin, even layers and allow each layer to become tacky before placing the lace.
• Use a melt band or scarf for 10–15 minutes after installation to set the lace seamlessly.
• Avoid excessive glue — buildup damages the lace and shortens the unit's lifespan.
• Glueless? Use the adjustable straps and combs, plus a wig grip band for all-day security.

3. Washing & Conditioning

• Wash every 2–3 weeks, or after 10–15 wears (more often if you use heavy products).
• Use sulfate-free, alcohol-free shampoo and a moisturising conditioner.
• Wash in lukewarm or cool water, stroking downwards from roots to tips — never rub or scrub.
• Condition mid-lengths to ends; avoid the lace and knots to prevent shedding.

4. Detangling & Drying

• Always detangle before washing and before sleeping.
• Use a wide-tooth comb or fingers; start at the tips and work upwards gently.
• Pat dry with a microfiber towel — never wring or twist the hair.
• Air-dry on a wig stand. If blow-drying, use low heat with a heat protectant.

5. Heat & Styling

• Always apply a heat protectant spray before using hot tools.
• Keep flat irons and curling wands below 180°C (356°F) on human hair.
• Limit heat on curly and wavy textures — excessive straightening can loosen the natural pattern permanently.
• Refresh curls between washes with a water-based leave-in spray, scrunching gently.

6. Sleeping & Swimming

• Wrap your hair in a satin bonnet or scarf every night — or sleep on a satin pillowcase.
• Where possible, remove lace units before sleeping to protect the lace and your edges.
• Avoid chlorine and salt water. If you must swim, wear a swim cap and rinse the unit immediately afterwards.

7. Storage

• Store on a wig stand or mannequin head to preserve shape and prevent tangles.
• Keep in a satin bag or box, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and dust.
• Never store a unit while damp — always fully dry first to prevent mildew.

8. What to Avoid

• Alcohol-based products near the lace (they dry and brittle it).
• Brushing curly textures when dry (causes frizz and shedding).
• Heavy oils and grease on the lace area (causes buildup and slippage).
• DIY repairs on lace tears — bring the unit to us instead.
