How To Brush A Wig

What do you need to brush a wig out?

1.  A wig stand or a mannequin head;

2.  A wide-toothed comb/ a wig brush;

3.  A few t-pins;

4.  High-quality conditioner you can find at your local beauty supply store;

5.  Some clips;

So what is the best way to brush a wig?

Step 1 Secure The Wig Steady

Firstly, place your wig on the mannequin head and pin the wig on the mannequin head with some t-pins to hold it in place.

Of course, you can also wear the wig on your head and brush it as you wear it, as long as you are in front of a mirror.

Step 2 Apply Conditioner To Wig

Next, you need to spray a generous amount of high-quality wig conditioner all throughout the wig to make it easier to brush out.

Step 3 Section Off The Wig

Grab your wide-tooth comb and start splitting off the wigs into different sections and use the clips to hold hair out of the way in the direction you prefer, which can help you from getting too frustrated when you have small sections to focus on.

Step 4 Brush Wig 

Take your wide-toothed comb to gently comb the hair down, start at the bottom and work your way up. Once you have the tangles removed from the ends of your hair, you can move up a few inches and start combing down again, working out the tangles.

Remember to brush one section at a time. It may be a time-consuming process so please be patient and gentle while brushing hair to avoid pulling off the hair.

Step 5 Finish Brushing

Continue brushing one section at a time until the section is brushed out. During this process, make sure that you separate the brushed hair and the tangled hair. After you are done with all the sections, pull out the clips.
