How to Wash
STEP 1:
Begin by wetting your Hustle Wig until the entire wig is completely saturated with lukewarm water. Hot water damages the hair.
Gently lather a COLOR SAFE shampoo, focusing on the strands and the inside of the wig cap while avoiding excessive rubbing. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
STEP 2:
Apply a COLOR SAFE conditioner generously, and brush the hair to ensure the conditioner is fully dispersed throughout. Allow the wig to sit lathered for at least 10-15 before rinsing. The goal is to rinse out majority of the conditioner to prevent stickiness once its dry, but to leave just a drop in the hair to maintain any frizz. Gently squeeze out the excess water and brush the hair once more.
STEP 3:
For defined waves, scrunch the hair upward with your hand before placing it on the wig head to dry. Once dry, style the wig using heat tools as desired.
Experiment with different brands of shampoo and conditioner or styling products until you find your favorite look.
By following these simple guidelines, you'll ensure your wig stays stunning and lasts longer, allowing you to enjoy its beauty and style for many occasions to come.
