10 Ways to De-Frizz Your Full Lace Wig Hair
1. Properly moisturizing hair is less likely to be affected by static, so deep condition regularly. I recommend that you use a deep conditioner once a week. You can leave the conditioner in anywhere from ten minutes to overnight while you sleep!
2. Since moisture is critical to keeping hair smooth, avoid products that include drying ingredients such as alcohol or sodium lauryl sulfate. (Be careful with most generic hairsprays, which contain drying alcohol, and try, for example, DeMert hairspray, for wigs.
3. What many women don’t realize is that towel drying your hair can actually create more static than blow drying if not done correctly. Here’s a trick: Instead of rubbing or wringing your hair, dry it with a thin towel made for drying hair. (If you don’t have one, an inexpensive hand towel will work just fine.)
4. Stop washing your hair every day. Not really. It dries out the full lace wig hair to the max and therefore adds frizz and tangles (which can cause breakage and lead to more frizz). Also use a suitable shampoo such as Vapon Wig Care Shampoo and Conditioner.
5. Contrary to popular belief, blow drying can be done without creating frizz if the hair is finished well; To do this, apply a leave-in conditioner made to prepare hair for heat styling, and comb through damp hair with a wide-tooth plastic comb. Then, use the concentrator attachment on your hair dryer and blow-dry it upside down so the follicle lays flat towards the ends of your locks.
6. The appearance of frizz is often caused by split ends and breakage, which create larger, weaker ends of hair strands that reflect sunlight particularly well and are very noticeable. Combat this effect by regularly trimming your hair to keep the ends healthy and smooth.
7. Brush your hair with a plastic bristle hairbrush instead of horsehair or other fiber bristles. The plastic bristles create less static and help the top of the hair lay flat, preventing further damage.
8. Run a fabric softener sheet (like the kind you use in your clothes dryer) over the hair of your full lace wig and watch flyaways and flyaways disappear.
9. You probably know how to use an anti-frizz serum or a shine serum to finish off your look; however, instead of applying it directly to your hair first or rubbing it between your palms, try running the serum through your comb, then comb through your hair to apply. This ensures an even application and dissipates any frizzy effects that the bristles of your brush may cause in your hair.
10. Are you in a hurry? A little bit of any generic moisturizer can work as an on-the-go de-frizzing cream. Simply rub the moisturizer between your fingers, then run your hands through the frizziest parts of your hair. Now you are so soft!
