Curly lace wigs are everything — bold, bouncy, and full of personality. But let’s be honest: those juicy curls don’t just stay flawless on their own. They need love, moisture, and just the right amount of don’t-touch-me energy.
If you’ve been wondering how to keep your curly lace wig looking salon-fresh and frizz-free, you’re in luck. We’ve broken down the top five care tips straight from the Peruke’s Caring for Wigs Guide (with a little Adoriya flair, of course ).
1. Wash Your Wig Like a Pro
Washing your curly wig while it's on your own head? Girl, that’s a no. Set that beauty free or up on a mannequin head. This gives you full control, so you can really get in there, detangle, and cleanse without the guesswork.
2. Pick the Right Shampoo — Moisture is Key
Curly wigs (especially human hair ones) thrive with the same TLC you’d give your natural curls. Use a shampoo formulated for dry, damaged, or chemically treated hair. Got color in that wig? Make sure your shampoo is safe for color-treated strands too!
3. No Dry Brushing Allowed!
Repeat after us: never brush curly hair when dry. That’s a one-way ticket to Frizzville. Instead, detangle only when the hair is wet using a paddle brush or (even better!) a wide-tooth comb. And go easy—too much combing can cause shedding and mess with your curl definition.
4. Water-Based Products > Oil-Based
Mineral oil is a no-no. It coats the hair without actually moisturizing it. Instead, reach for a water-based leave-in spray or moisturizer to keep your curls soft, defined, and hydrated. Spray and scrunch — your curls will thank you.
5. Straighten Sparingly (Or Not At All)
Sure, we love versatility, but straightening curly wigs too often can ruin the curl pattern for good. If you must go sleek, limit it to once a month max and always use low heat. Better yet? Embrace the curl life. It’s giving goddess energy.
The Curl Care Wrap-Up
Caring for your curly lace wig doesn’t have to be complicated — just intentional. With a few easy habits and the right products, you’ll keep your curls soft, and ready for whatever look you're feeling.
