As always, the information you present is clearly explained, and the demonstrations with the different types of fibers as well as straight versus wavy are so helpful in understanding the verbal explanations! Honestly, I have learned more from you than from anyone else I've tried to watch!! I'm so completely intimidated about all of this that your kind, patient, humorous approach makes me relax and actually absorb the info without immediately panic thinking, "I can't do that!" 😕 ❤
I can use I didn’t realize was new the one topper I had gotten privately was heat friendly so dopey me assumed they all were heat friendly L were . I’m new to this suddenly lost everything on my body alopecia universalis in less then two months and no answers , eyelashes is the hardest to do. . I haven’t washed yet but someone said you steam them. When done?
Thanks, Amanda. I have to offer a technique I have used in the past for straight wigs. I have dipped the ends in water(no more that 2-4 seconds at a time) that has been boiled and set aside for a while. I use the same method with a fine-tooth comb before and after the dip. I continue to dip 3 or 4 times until I feel that the comb slides through easily. Fiber is then poker straight .
Can you clarify? You dip the ends in boiling water for 2-4 seconds and set the wig aside? And you dip a fine tooth comb in the boiling water before running it through the wig? I am confused LOL
Thank you didn’t realize the two I bought one from Gabor and one Rene of Paris. Wasn’t heat friendly kind of frizzled the bangs with the hot iron . But I can use the I have that blower from my own hair which don’t have now .I can use with water and blow on low setting cause it kept falling in face
Hi Amanda! Great tips, thanks!! Wanted to share something I recently tried on a synthetic, ready to throw out, very expensive wig. I had nothing to lose. It kept running through my mind that wigs are basically plastic. I got my spray bottle of Clear Dawn and spritzed it on the outside and matted parts of my dry wig. Then I rinsed my wig with the spray nozzle on my sink. It came out looking new!!
Hi thanks for the pre ious info. Would heated rollers be less onerous on a wavy price. or plain rollers but metal core ones heated up in hot water or a piece of wig dipped in hot water and roller then placed?
Great video!!! can’t wait to try ! I’ve never added water before using heat on my heat friendly fiber wigs. I wonder why this makes a difference? Hopefully you could answer this for me.
I had a wig that I wanted straightened I laid it on a plain towel, covered the hair with a handkerchief and used my regular hand iron over the covered parts of the wig and it worked just fine
@@MarinaLaroche Both are from Amazon. My hair straightener is the brand Techmeri. The hot air brush I specifically got doesn’t exist on the link anymore but if you search “blow dryer brush,” they are all similar 😊
Does the wig have to be freshly washed for this to work correctly? Are there any drawbacks to this method if not freshly washed? Thinking of when I need to touch up ends on Simmer mid week and there might be some wig wax or silicone spray already on those fibers.
@@TryingToAdapt no, it doesn’t have to be freshly washed but if there is a lot of buildup from product, it might be a good idea to wash and remove it first.

@@jillianbergeron1661 hi Jillian! I’m so sorry- I completely misread this for some reason!! 😬😬😬 if you’re experiencing puffy or frizzy human hair, have you tried deep conditioning and making sure you are using hair oil?

It’s good to know wigs can have longevity with some regular maintenance, just like a car! Many are very expensive!

Great video but what do you do with curly styles if you want to do the whole wig not just the ends? 💝
@@Clara-wo1hg do you mean curl the whole wig or straighten the whole wig?
@@chiquelwigs Curl or is it only the ends that need heat?
@@Clara-wo1hg over a long period of time, the body of the wig may need some touch ups. You can always add a roller and apply steam. ❤️
@@chiquelwigs For both Heat-Friendly and Synthetics ?
@@MarinaLaroche that would be for synthetic. I have videos on recurling both heat friendly and synthetic fibers ❤️
very helpful thank you

Can a curling iron work
@@cindyguerrero3802 a curling iron will curl it. ☺️
Can you use the old electric curlers?
@@deltalady52 no, that would have heat for too long on the fibers and they might melt.
