Unlike full wigs, 3/4 half wigs only cover a part of the head. Just because they are called half wigs doesn't mean they only cover half of your head - half wigs can cover most of the crown of your head and you can use a head bang to cover the rest of the head, or you can leave-out your natural hair to allow room for a natural look. 

By blending your natural hair with a 3/4 half wig, you are able to create an illusion that all your hair is natural. Unlike extensions, half wigs are quick and easier to remove.

  HUMAN HAIR WIG CARE INSTRUCTIONS

 We recommend washing your human hair wig or hairpieces every 6 - 8 wears, however as per the synthetic instructions above,  you will learn to follow your instinct when it is best to wash and maintain your wig.

 

• Step 1:  Before washing your human hair wig or hairpiece, gently remove any tangles using a paddle brush or wide tooth comb without tugging on the hair.
• Step 2:  Hold wig or hairpiece under cool to luke warm running water so hair is traveling in the same direction.  Apply a small amount of shampoo designed for human hair and gently lather the hair with shampoo while making sure the hair continues to travel in the same direction.  You do not want to rub the hair, particularly in the wrong direction, as this will cause tangles.
• Step 3:  Rinse thoroughly with cool water until it runs clear.
• Step 4:  Apply conditioner only on hair, avoiding the base cap of wig or hairpiece.  (applying conditioner on base may weaken knots).
• Step 5:  With fingers, work conditioner through the ends of the hair for about 3 - 5 minutes.
• Step 6:  Rinse thoroughly in cold to luke warm water until the water runs clear.

 DRY & STYLE:

• Wrap wig or hairpiece in a towel and gently pat to remove excess water.
• DO NOT use a brush to detangle your human hair wig while it is wet, gently use a wide tooth comb.
• Let the hair completely dry, this will protect and ensure the longetity of the wig.  However, you can use a digital setting hair dryer at lower temperature settings of not more than 350 degrees fahrenheit.
• Apply a small amount of Leave In Conditioner or Treatment Mist to the hair only (not the lace or cap), let it dry and style as you wish.

 STYLING NOTES:

• Human hair wigs are expensive and you want to keep it looking healthy and new for as long as possible!  Please use professional grade blow dryer, flat iron or curling iron with digital settings to ensure you are in complete control of the temperature settings.  This will extend the life of your wig.
• Use styling products that are specifically designed for human hair.  Our favorite products are the Jon Renau Heat Treat Thermal Spray, Boho Beach Mist and Weightless Volumizing Foam.  These products create volume and texture.  To smooth out your style, we recommend the Argan Smooth Luxury Mist or Conditioner.
• If you choose to curl your human hair wig, use the small clips designed to hold each curl in place while cooling off each section.  This will allow the hair to hold the curls much longer.  If you are looking to achieve a looser curl with a beachy boho look?  Simply let the curl hang as it cools, then gently finger style to loosen.
