Hair Care and Maintenance for wigs ❤️
Washing
We recommend washing your wigs prior to install, but it is not necessary. For best results, we recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo and hydrating conditioner. As always, remain gentle with your extensions; avoid harsh scrubbing when you are washing.
Styling With Heat
DA TRAP BANDO Textures are 100% Brazilian Virgin hair so you can use heat on them when styling. But keep in mind, just like your natural hair, wigs are susceptible to heat damage. Using a heat protectant spray prior to heat application and using a low heat setting can help prevent damage to your wigs and prolong their lifespan. We recommend using heat no higher than 360 degrees on your DTB hair.
Coloring
Because Textures are 100% virgin, unprocessed hair from a single donor, you can lighten this hair to your desired color. We recommend having a professional stylist color your hair to keep the integrity of the hair.
In order to keep your Da Trap Bando Hair looking fresh and silky, proper hair care is ESSENTIAL. DA TRAP BANDO's team has worked hard to ensure your wigs are the highest quality possible so you can look and feel your best. However, prolonging your TRAP BANDO WIGS lifespan is up to you!
Our wigs are ethically sourced and made with 100% real Remy human hair, so you should treat them with even more delicate care than you do your own. To make this high quality hair last as long as possible, we have composed a fool-proof haircare guide below that will answer all of your questions.
Brushing
Brushing your wigs can prevent shedding and help ensure that your hair stays smooth and tangle-free, if done properly. To prevent breakage and prolong the lifespan of your hair, here’s a few brushing tips:
- Brush your hair when dry, as wet hair is more prone to breakage.
- Start at the ends and gradually make your way up to the top. Gently comb through any knots before moving up the length of the section. Harsh tugging will damage the structural integrity of the clips, as well as the hair itself
- Be extra gentle when brushing your wigs while they are installed , especially around the top of the wigs as you don’t want to bald or rip the lace.
- Regularly brush your trap bando hair after use.
Washing
Since wigs are not moisturized through a natural hydration source like your real hair, excessive washing can cause dryness. Generally, the less you wash your wigs the longer they will last. However, when you feel it is necessary, you may wash your wigs. For best results, we recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo and hydrating conditioner. As always, remain gentle with your hair; avoid harsh scrubbing when you are washing. After washing, hang your wig up to air dry. NEVER rub them with a towel, and remember to avoid brushing while wet!
Styling With Heat
DA TRAP BANDO wigs are made with 100% human hair, so you can use heat on them when styling. But keep in mind, just like your natural hair, wigs are susceptible to heat damage. Using a heat protectant spray prior to heat application and using a low heat setting can help prevent damage to your hair and prolong their lifespan. We recommend using heat no higher than 360 degrees on your TRAP BANDO hair.
Coloring
Because Da TRAP BANDO hair offers many color options for your hair, we recommend avoiding coloring your wigs. Doing so can reduce the quality of your hair texture. If you do dye your hair, we strongly advise against lightening your hair, as bleaching agents will cause severe damage. For any kind of color treatment, always do a test strand first and remember that wigs will absorb color faster than regular hair.
Product Use
Another important aspect of hair aftercare is using the right products. Heavy hair products, such as hair sprays and hair gels, contain chemicals that will dry hair, so try to stay away from them. We encourage the use of gentle, all natural products on your extensions- specifically products without sulfates or parabens. Since your wigs don’t receive oils from your scalp, we recommend an occasional moisturizing mask to fight dryness and maintain a shiny and healthy look.
Storage
After you complete proper hair aftercare, your wigs need to be stored with equal consideration. Proper storage is crucial to keeping your hair silky smooth. When your TRAP BANDO hair is not in use, be sure to snap all clips shut before storing. Ideally, you would wrap, or hang, the wefts in a silk bag or storage case. Your wigs should be completely dry and tucked away from direct sunlight in a cool, dry place.
