Frequently asked questions

Find clear answers on washing, heat styling, everyday storage, and essential maintenance to keep your synthetic wig looking radiant every day.

How do I correctly wash and condition my synthetic wig?

Always detangle gently before washing using a wide-tooth comb, starting from the tips and working your way up to the cap while the wig is completely dry. Submerge gently in a basin of cool water mixed with a mild synthetic wig shampoo. Never rub or wring the fibres. Rinse thoroughly in cool water, gently pat excess water with a soft towel, and let it air dry naturally on a wig stand.

What is the maximum heat temperature I can use on Futura fibre?

You can style Futura fibre using curling irons, hair straighteners, or blow dryers, but you must strictly avoid high temperatures that cause permanent melting. Always use a styling tool with a precise digital heat display and ensure it never exceeds 180°C.

Can I use standard drugstore shampoos and conditioners?

No, standard human hair shampoos and heavy conditioners contain ingredients designed for natural hair that coat synthetic fibres. Over time, this creates a heavy, dull residue and causes unsightly matting. Always stick to products formulated specifically for synthetic hair.

How should I store my wig to prevent tangling and frizz?

When you are not wearing your wig, store it safely in a satin bag or in dedicated wig storage bags with hangers. Keeping your hairpiece protected away from friction, dust, and direct sunlight keeps the fibres silky and tangle-free between wears.

What is the most common mistake that reduces a wig's lifespan?

The number one mistake is treating synthetic hair like human hair. Applying excessive heat above 180°C or using regular hair care products causes irreversible damage. Synthetic hair is made from specialised plastic-based fibres that will melt, singe, or frizz if exposed to harsh heat or unsuitable formulas.

How should I brush my wig each day?

Always use a wide-tooth comb or a specialist loop brush designed for synthetic hair. Never tug from the roots down. Instead, work through small sections starting at the ends and slowly work upwards to preserve the cap and keep shedding to a minimum.
