100% Human hair Caring
for a Hip Hat hairpiece is similiar to that of any human hair but with a few
special considerations: Treat the hair gently. Also, do not use
products that contain protein or keratin. Protein will leach moisture from
the core of non-cuticle hair, causing a frizzy look. We recommend John Frieda's
Frizz-Ease Shampoo and Conditioner, found
in most grocery or drug stores.
See those products here.
Hair Care and Styling
How to Wash the Hair
Wash the hair only when needed. Pour a
small amount of shampoo into a sink of cool water. Dip the hair along with the
fabric into the solution. Swish gently. Rinse thouroughly in cool running
water. Squeese out excess water. Pour a small amount of conditioner into a sink
of cool water. Dip the hair portions into the solution. Squeese out excess
water but do not rinse. Do not twist hair. Comb out the hair with a pick or
wide-toothed comb.
Hang wet hair on a wig stand or lay flat to dry.
If laying flat, place on a towel with a heating pad under it to speed up drying
time. Finger-style the hair in place and let dry. Human hair can be styled with
a blow-dryer or irons, but use heat with caution. Once your hairpeice is styled
it will stay they way for quite awhile until your next washing.
Also recommend are spray-in shine laminators such as Citre Shine, found in most
grocery stores. Or try Rusk Deep Shine found on
the internet.
For extra conditioning, try Infusium 23 Original Formula Leave-in Conditioner.
Hair Styling
Do Not use products that contain protein.
Hip Hats are designed with a gently fit for comfort. The amount of extra
security you might need is an individual preference. Some of our customers will
find that nothing extra is necessary. Some prefer to use a little double stick
tape. In addition, "It Stays Body Adhesive" was recommended by one of our
young customers who is a cheerleader and does flips in her Underhair! Type it
into google to find several sites that sell it.
