Do This And Your Hair Will Last Longer
Your wig or bundle isn’t just a product—it’s an investment in yourself, your style, and your confidence. Whether you're flaunting OJA Hair’s luxurious lace frontals, bundles, or full lace wigs, you deserve to get the most out of your hair. Today, we’re sharing our top tips for ensuring your OJA Hair looks flawless for years to come. Let’s dive into some best practices for long-lasting beauty!
1. Keep It Clean—but Don’t Overdo It
Clean Regularly: Like natural hair, wigs and bundles need to be washed to keep them fresh and fabulous. However, overwashing can strip the hair of its natural oils, leading to dryness. We recommend washing your OJA Hair products every 10-15 wears or when they start to lose their luster.
Sulfate-Free Shampoos Only: Always opt for a sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates can be too harsh for your extensions or wigs, causing frizz, dryness, or shedding. Gentle, hydrating shampoos help maintain the softness and shine of your OJA Hair.
Deep Condition: Conditioning is key for longevity. After washing, apply a deep conditioner to the hair and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with cool water to lock in moisture.
2. Detangle Gently—Patience Is a Virtue
Use the Right Tools: To keep your wigs and bundles tangle-free, use a wide-tooth comb or a paddle brush designed specifically for wigs. Always start detangling from the tips and work your way up towards the roots. This reduces stress on the hair and prevents unnecessary breakage.
Be Gentle with Lace: If you're dealing with lace closures or frontals, be extra careful when brushing around the lace to prevent tearing.
3. Protect Against Heat
Heat Protectant Is a Must: If you’re styling your OJA Hair with hot tools, always apply a heat protectant spray beforehand. Excessive heat can damage the hair fibers, causing split ends or dryness. A heat protectant spray forms a barrier between your hair and the heat, reducing potential damage.
Moderate Heat Usage: While our wigs and bundles can handle heat styling, it's best to use medium to low temperatures. This helps maintain the integrity of your OJA Hair, keeping it looking smooth and healthy.
4. Moisturize for Luxurious Locks
Lightweight Oils: Raw hair extensions can dry out without your natural scalp oils providing moisture. To keep them hydrated, apply lightweight oils such as argan or jojoba oil sparingly. This will add shine without weighing the hair down.
Leave-In Conditioner for Curls: If you have a curly or wavy texture, using a leave-in conditioner can keep the curls bouncy and full. Spray a leave-in mist to add moisture and revive the curls between washes.
5. Proper Storage—Avoid the Messy Drawer Syndrome
Keep Your Wigs on a Stand: Store your wigs on a wig stand or mannequin head to help maintain their shape and prevent tangling. Storing your wigs carelessly can cause them to lose their beautiful form and become matted.
Store Bundles in Silk Bags: Place your bundles in a silk or satin bag when they’re not in use. This prevents tangling and keeps them protected from dust and humidity. A simple storage routine goes a long way towards maintaining that gorgeous, salon-like look.
6. Keep the Lace Fresh
Clean Lace Regularly: If you’re using glue or adhesive on your lace frontals, make sure to clean the lace regularly to remove any buildup. Use a gentle adhesive remover, and avoid scrubbing harshly to prevent damage to the delicate lace.
Handle with Care: Lace can be fragile. Avoid pulling or tugging around the hairline, as this can cause tearing or excessive shedding. When applying adhesive, make sure it is formulated specifically for lace wigs.
7. Night Care—Protect Your Crown
Satin Bonnets and Pillowcases: If you sleep in your wig or extensions, use a satin bonnet or a silk pillowcase to reduce friction while you sleep. Cotton pillowcases can cause tangling and frizz, while silk or satin helps to maintain smoothness.
Braid or Wrap: Braiding your wig or loosely wrapping it before bed can prevent it from tangling overnight. For curly styles, try pinning the curls to keep them intact.
8. Avoid Product Build-Up
Less Is More: Styling products can weigh down the hair and cause build-up, which can dull the shine and texture of your wig or bundles. Opt for lightweight products and use them sparingly to maintain a natural look.
Use Clarifying Shampoo Occasionally: If you feel there is a build-up of product, use a clarifying shampoo once in a while. Just make sure to follow it up with a moisturizing conditioner to keep the hair soft and hydrated.
9. Handle with Love
Avoid Rough Handling: Always handle your wigs and extensions with love. Rough brushing, pulling, or tugging can lead to tangling and shedding. Treat your OJA Hair as you would your own natural hair to keep it looking fabulous for years.
10. Seek Professional Help When Needed
Coloring and Bleaching: While our raw bundles and wigs can be dyed or bleached, we highly recommend seeking help from a professional stylist, especially for drastic color changes. This ensures the hair maintains its quality and doesn’t become over-processed.
Revamps and Repairs: If your wig starts to lose its shape or the lace needs a touch-up, consider a professional wig revamp service. This will help keep your wig looking fresh, polished, and ready to wear.
