- Improper using wig glue or adhesive can cause you to lose your hair. With wig glue or adhesive, you can lose your edges if you apply them on your hairline often. And apart from ripping your hair when it’s time to uninstall your wig, wig adhesives can clog your pores and irritate your skin. For edge controls, avoid those containing alcohols that dry out the hair.
- Choose wigs made from breathable materials, like wear and go wigs or HD lace wigs. Make sure you invest in wigs that allow your scalp to breathe underneath the wig. Lace wigs are lightweight and allow more airflow to your scalp. Lace wig caps do not make you feel as hot as traditional wig caps.
- Don’t neglect your natural hair underneath the wig. Keep your scalp clean by washing it regularly with a gentle shampoo, and make sure to moisturize both your hair and scalp to keep them healthy. Incorporating scalp massages can also stimulate blood flow, promoting healthy hair growth.
- Avoid any tight wigs because they can lead to traction alopecia. Wgs tightly pressed against your scalp can cause little to no hair flow to your scalp and your sweat will be trapped. The trapped sweat can cause bacteria and lead to other issues that promote hair loss.
