How Do You Prepare a Halloween Wig Before Wearing It?
A new wig may look different after being packed or stored. Give it a little time to regain its shape before styling.
Remove the packaging carefully. Place the wig on a wig stand or clean surface. Check the adjustable straps, clips, or combs before putting it on.
Next, inspect the fibers for tangles. Do not pull through knots quickly. Gentle handling helps prevent unnecessary shedding and fiber damage.
If the wig has been compressed, lightly arrange the hair with your fingers first. Then use a suitable comb or brush if needed.
