Everything You Need To Know About Storing Wigs

You've mastered ordering wigs online, styling them, putting them on, cleaning and washing them, but have you ever wondered how to store your wigs?
A wig is a major investment. While we know that all human hair wigs lose their natural shine over time, there are a few things you can do to make your wig last longer, including learning how to store your wig properly.
Learning how to store your human hair wigs is a surefire way to improve the overall quality of your wig and make it look fresher and last longer. Whether you're wearing a synthetic wig, a heat resistant synthetic wig or their more expensive sister, the human hair wig, here are some tried and tested tips to help you keep your wig looking fabulous.

Human hair wig storage versus synthetic wig storage

In most areas of wig maintenance and care, there are significant differences in the way human hair wigs and synthetic wigs are treated. However, when it comes to wig storage, there is no difference! The correct way to store both types of wigs is exactly the same.

Clean before storing
Putting your wig away before washing is like putting a dirty bowl back in the cupboard: your bowl will get dirtier in the cupboard than when you left it there. To maintain the quality of your wig for as long as possible, clean your wig before putting it away.

Store your wig in a place that is not exposed to direct sunlight
Wigs are designed to withstand a lot, but there are a few things you should avoid doing to your wig. What's the first thing on the no-wig list? Store your wig in direct sunlight or hot areas. Sunlight and heat can dull the colour of a wig and break down the hair fibres. If you store your wig in direct sunlight, it will not only fade the appearance of your wig, but it will also make it more fragile.
If your wig is left in the heat for too long, it can even start to fall apart. Store your wig from Kameymall in a dry, cool place.
