How to successfully care for your system at home Keep your hair system looking great I remember the very first wig I bought, I was so excited. My wig was a long wavy black one, back then it was called a “french body wave”. I wore my first wig for about a week and I decided to wash it because I was in a hurry and needed it to look a certain way. So I took it off my head and just started wetting it. To my horror the wig became completely matted to the point I could not do anything to fix it. Needless to say I ended up having to buy another wig that same day. As I became a hairstylist and learned more about hair and extensions I realized that I was not properly educated in how to wash my wig or hair extensions. I did not realize that beauty shop “hair” is not really hair. Have you ever noticed when you buy hair that it seems to get matted or tangled after washing it just a couple of times? That’s because its literally disreguarded hair from the temples or hair collected from brushes and combs. Ugh anyways, the point I am trying to make is that I did not purchase good quality hair to begin with, nor did I know how to wash it correctly. So, I thought perhaps you may want to know how to successfully wash your wig at home. First let me start by saying if you search online you will see many different examples of how to wash a wig at home. Some suggestions are good and some are not. I am sharing my experiences of trial and error by washing my own wigs at home. You must decide which suggestions works best for you. Tip 1 Deciding how often you want to wash your wig is a personal choice. However, many women choose to wash their lace wigs and hair extensions every one to two weeks. In the Summer the hot weather can be a bit of a challenge, in such cases it’s a good idea to simply rinse hair with lukewarm water and apply conditioner sparingly to avoid buildup. If the hair begins to feel sticky or dry, it may be time to give it a good shampoo. The same goes for if the wig begins to lose its curl or volume. Remember, washing your wig will limit its lifespan, so you don’t want to over wash it. If you wear a wig cap underneath and remove your wig before going to bed, you can help reduce the number of times you need to shampoo and condition it. Ada Leroux Hair offers real satin bonnets in different colors. These bonnets will protect your wig and hair extensions while you sleep at night because it reduces the amount of friction your new hair will experience. Plus it extends the lifespan of your wigs, extensions, and toppers. Tip 2 Before you purchase your next wig please buy a styrofoam head or a canvas block head. You can find them both on Amazon but the styrofoam head can be found at your local beauty supply store for next to nothing. Now I normally start with a canvas block head that is smaller than my actual wig size. For example, I wear a small to medium wig cap so I would get a small canvas if you don’t want to overstretch your wig. Next I take my wig and pin it down to the canvas block head then I put one more pin in the back so it doesn’t fall off. Once I’ve done that the next thing I’m going to do is comb the wig out make sure there’s no tangles in it at all. Of course you want to get the right shampoo (sulfur-free) for the rest of the steps. After I’ve combed it out, take the wig and set it down into the sink. Just begin to wet it with water until it’s fully saturated. Once it’s fully saturated put it in your hand in and rub it around a little bit and then slowly add more shampoo to it. Remember to keep the shampoo and conditioner away from the lace because the lace has been hand knotted and if it gets wet then hair will start to shed more so be careful. Tip 3 Carefully rinse the shampoo and conditioner out of the hair, which is very easy to do because you have the wig sitting on the wig head. It’s been my personal experience over the years that this is actually the best way to shampoo and condition your wig. Instead of trying to hold the wig in your hand and doing all that other stuff this is it’s better with a block head. It’s stress-free and you allow the wig to keep its shape. Most well-made wigs have a shape that it fits around your head and if you mess around with that too much it will literally cause it to collapse and it will lose its shape. So when you’re not wearing your wig it’s always a good idea to put it on the styrofoam head or on a canvas block. Now the hair should feel really soft and I’m also suggest you remove your wig off the styrofoam head or canvas block head and lay it on top of a soft towel and gently roll it to remove the excess water.

HOW TO KEEP YOUR WIGS SECURE

Leave a Comment / 360 Lace Wigs / adalerouxhair

360 Lace Wigs · Jun 28, 2022 HOW TO KEEP YOUR WIGS SECURE YOUR NATURAL HAIRLINE The best way to protect your edges is not to try to cover them up, but to customize the wig by trimming it back and using your natural baby hairs. We sell edge control where it does not flake or fall off, so it creates baby hairs in the front that gives your hairline a natural look. Adding baby hairs can help the unit look more realistic when its installed on your head. Bobby Pins If your wig does not come with clips inside, have some bobby pins in the vicinity to add to the wig to secure it! Wig clips are a better option, but you can use bobby pins when you don’t have that option! So here are some simple suggestions click here. There have been a few times where I have encountered a unit with no type of clip or comb to secure my wig. To be honest, before I realized I could use bobby pins, I would get so nervous that the right gust of wind at the wrong time could blow my wig right off my head! However, with bobby pins, you can pin the sides of your clipless unit down to your perimeter braid, and rest assured that your wig is stable. Just take two to four bobby pins, pin your braid, and you are good to go. I typically do one above each ear and two at the nape of my neck for extra security. Because the hair falls over the pins, I don’t have to worry about the pins showing and giving away my secret! Wig Tape Wig tape is a great way to secure your wig to secure the wig to your head; it is recommended that you get this type of installation done by a professional hairstylist to avoid traction alopecia in your hairline area. If you have sensitive skin like me then check out this link that gives you an array of products to choose from. THE HOW Wig tape is attached to the underside of your wig and around the hairline, (it is sometimes applied with medical-grade adhesives) giving the wig wearer a more extended and secure hold for up to two weeks. It’s a more scalp-friendly alternative than wig glue. Still, since wig adhesives can irritate a sensitive scalp, we recommend that a skin test should be performed before using, particularly for those recovering from cancer treatment. However, wig tape is a great way to keep your wig in place while allowing for natural movement. THE PROS Best for hair-free areas, as the tape is double-sided. It can be unpleasant if it adheres to your hair (if you have some). That being said, many different types of adhesive removers are available on the market. Again, we highly recommend you seek guidance from a professional hairstylist to find the right solution for you. Wig tape has polyurethane tabs which some medical wigs may have. If your wigs do not have this, clients also used tape against a standard cap, which works in the same way. For additional wig security, you can add silicone solution sheet strips to your wig or hairpiece and the tape will attach to the wig on one side, and the scalp to the other. As briefly mentioned, there are varying strengths, and our clients testify that tape works and is very secure! You will not have to worry about hair flying down the street like tumbleweed. Tape can even hold up when your scalp gets sweaty. A roll of tape will last you a long time! It is good value for money, and if security for an extended period is what you require, then it’s most likely the best way to secure a wig. WIG GRIP The Wig Grip was designed to make wearing a wig more secure, confident, and comfortable. It adjusts to body movements, evenly distributes the weight of a wig or hat, and keeps them from slipping. Take a look at our selection of wig grips here. THE PROS The Wig Grip is phenomenal for alleviating pressure and does provide excellent wig security. If you want to remove your wig regularly throughout the day, it is perfect as it is easy to take on and off. If you wear wig tape all day, you can sometimes find you can get a tension headache. You may find that the Wig Grip band is a more lightweight and comfortable option. WIG CAPS For those asking how to secure a capless wig, a wig cap may be the perfect solution for you. There are many benefits to wearing a wig cap, mainly that it guarantees that long or short natural hair will stay in place. What’s more, it prevents the natural hair from breaking easily due to friction, creating a safe and sanitized barrier between the wig and scalp that maintains the cleanliness of your wig. Some of our customers love wig caps, and some don’t. It is an entirely personal preference. Thankfully, the wig caps we sell are very affordable. Wig caps don’t just act as a protective barrier between the scalp and your wig, but they are also a tool for keeping your hairpiece in place. There are many benefits to using wig caps; more details can be found in our previous post. THE PROS Wig Caps hold everything in place and are ideal for shorter and longer natural hair and bare scalps. Wig caps can also smooth out the surface underneath a wig, especially with lumps often caused by the loss of natural hair. As a result of the wig cap, wigs often rest much better on the head, producing a more natural look. The potential downside of wearing a wig cap is that it can make things hot under your wig, meaning it could cause you to feel the heat and become a little uncomfortable. Despite this, wig caps are worth a try, as the security

WHAT IS A CRANIAL PROSTHESIS?

360 Lace Wigs · Alopecia Wigs · Bob wigs · Brazilian hair · Cancer Wigs · Cranial hair prothesis · Custom Made Wigs · hairextensions · Hairline · Handmade Wigs · Luxury hair · Medical wigs · Wig making services · Womens Wigs · Sep 12, 2022 WHAT IS A CRANIAL PROSTHESIS? Lets start by sharing what it is and what it does A cranial hair prosthesis is a specially designed head covering that restores hair on the head and gives the wearer a natural-looking head of hair. The cranial prosthesis also aids in the regulation of body temperature and protects the scalp against outdoor elements. A cranial hair prosthesis is considered a necessary part of a person’s health recovery. Therefore Health insurance companies will cover 80 to 100 % of the cost if you get a written doctor’s prescription. I have great respect for women who choose to go bare-headed like Jada Pickett Smith, I have to agree she rocks that bare head nicely. However, other women are not as comfortable in rocking an uncovered head. Hair on your head is a not only an important part of your body, but it also represents a symbol of pride and joy for many women. Your mental health is essential to your overall well-being, not to mention your perceived attractiveness, sexual appeal, and feeling good about yourself. When battling any disease that causes hair loss, there is nothing wrong with wanting hair; after all, we can agree that it is a large part of a person’s identity. Replacing your lost hair is not vanity, it fills a need to feel normal and recognize the person in the mirror that is staring back at you. A cranial hair prosthesis (or hair system) is a custom-made medical head covering specifically designed for patients who have lost their hair. These medical conditions include alopecia areata, alopeciatotalis, lupus, thyroid diseases, trichotillomania, and chemotherapy. The correct terminology, cranial hair prosthesis, is often a recommended phrase when applying for medical insurance to cover the cost. Cranial prostheses also help to protect your skin and weakened immune systems from the sun; just like your natural hair protects the scalp, the cranial prosthesis regulates body temperature. A cranial hair prosthesis is different from a regular wig because it is made to fit a person’s head shape and often mimic’s their natural hair. The base is msde from a hypoallergenic fabric because people with chemotherapy are sensitive to any material, and their scalp is prone to allergies. The hair is usually hand-knotted onto the lace base of the cap to create an illusion of growing hair. Will my insurance cover the cost of my cranial prosthesis? Hair loss can be an unfortunate side effect of many chemotherapy treatments for cancer. Some people may embrace their newly bare head and leave it uncovered. Still, others are more comfortable wearing a cranial prosthesis. Even when hair loss is expected, it can still be shocking to see it fall out. Planning for hair loss may help ease this transition. There are many options for head covers, and all have advantages and disadvantages. A cranial hair prosthesis that looks like your natural hair is an excellent choice before starting treatment. On average, it can take up to 60 days to produce cranial prostheses. Wigs can be expensive, but medical insurance may cover the cost of a wig when hair loss is caused by chemotherapy. The approval process may not be a simple one, though. This article will explain how you can request coverage for a wig and your options if insurance doesn’t pay. Call Your Health Insurance Provider Many private health insurance policies will cover at least part or all of the cost of a cranial prosthesis. Before meeting with a certified hair replacement specialist, it’s essential to call the insurance company and ask about their requirements. The cost of the cranial prosthesis can vary tremendously, depending on the following factors: How the cranial prosthesis is made (with natural human hair or synthetic materials). The hairstyle and the quality of the wig. With the advances in synthetic hair, a cranial prosthesis may be covered entirely by your insurance company, but the cost of a real human hair cranial prosthesis may be more expensive and may come with a higher out-of-pocket cost. Again, it depends on your insurance company as they may cover 80% or up to 100% of the cost. Terminology is key A prescription from a dermatologist or oncologist is often needed for insurance coverage. Still, the terminology used in the order is essential. All health insurance companies require a prescription that uses one of the following terms and must include one of the following codes for insurance to pay for them. Hair prosthesis Full or partial cranial prosthesis Cranial prosthesis Cranial hair prosthesis Extra-cranial prosthesis Codes are A9282, D5924 “Cranial Prosthesis,” and S8095 “Cranial Prosthesis” Though this terminology may sound strange, it’s just the way that insurance companies prefer to label chemotherapy-required cranial prostheses. The diagnosis from your doctor must include a letter stating why you need a cranial prosthesis. These reasons usually are: To be protected from elements, i.e., Sun, cold, rain, and wind. Maintain body temperature control. Physical discomfort from lack of hair covering and the mental toll of not having hair. The insurance company may also require that you purchase it first, send in the receipt, and then file a claim. When you file the claim, you must know how to classify your new hair. Under no circumstances should you tell your insurance company it is a “wig.” The claim will be denied; it must be called a full or partial cranial prosthesis, cranial hair prosthesis, or “durable medical goods.” Keep copies of your paperwork. Make copies of all paperwork related to your cranial prostheses. Keeping a file with copies of all medical-related hair loss costs can save money. If the claim is delayed or missing, resubmitting it is easy. The following items can be essential to keep. The healthcare provider’s cranial prosthesis prescription. Sales receipt

Each hair fiber is made up of three layers. The innermost layer is called the medulla, and it is composed of loosely packed cells at the center of a single strand. The middle part of your hair fiber that surrounds the medulla is called the cortex, which comprises keratin proteins and structural lipids. The cortex makes up most of the hair strand mass and is surrounded by the cuticle layer, which protects the overall structure of each strand. The hair cuticle is the outermost layer of the hair shaft, it acts as a protective barrier for the hair strand and gives it a lot of shine. The cuticle is made up of layers that look like shingles. You can take one strand of your hair and slide your finger down your hair shaft. It will feel really smooth. To feel the cuticle, you will need to slide your fingers up your hair strands to feel the shingles that compose the cuticle. So why is the cuticle so important when dealing with hair extensions? If the hair strands are not going in the same direction, the hair will not be happy, and you will not be satisfied because it will tangle up all the time. When creating hair extensions, the hair needs to be going in the same direction. The Hair Extension Industry Truthfully, the hair extension industry is still largely unregulated and does not have a legitimate grading system. Since 2010, Hair extension manufacturers have struggled to set themselves apart from their competitors regarding how to grade and sell more of their hair extension products to consumers. So, these manufacturers came up with the so-called hair grading system that uses a combination of numbers ranging from 4 to 12 and the letters, usually “A” or “AA and “AAA.” All this is an attempt to prove that their hair is better quality than the other hair extension manufacturers. As a licensed hairstylist and certified hair replacement specialist, I have a unique perspective about hair extensions as I have personally worn and installed just about every type of hair extensions. The number one piece of advice I give people seeking to purchase new hair extensions or wigs is to take the hair extensions and run your fingers through it. If you feel any type of resistance then you may have a valid reason to be concerned. Next, gently take the hair bundle and slide it behind your neck. It should feel great, not itchy. Hair Extension Types Different degrees or types of hair are used when manufacturing hair extensions, wigs, hairpieces, and toppers. Lets go over some of the common types of hair you’ll find. 100% Virgin Hair (Raw) Raw virgin hair is sourced from donors who did not use chemicals on their hair. The hair is usually thick and in excellent condition; it is the most expensive hair you can buy and it has the highest quality. It is human hair with all the cuticles going in the same direction which hasn’t gone through any chemical or mechanical processing. Some manufacturers will steam treat the hair to create a different texture. If the hair is straight, it is still raw virgin hair. Remy or Remi HairThis hair is sourced from two or more donors. Remy’s hair is also 100% human hair. All the cuticles go in the same direction to prevent tangles and matting, but unlike Virgin Hair it has been chemically or mechanically processed. Regardless, it is still high-quality hair that will last you for a long time. 100% Human Hair/ Non-Remy Some hair manufacturers choose not to take care the hair and keep the cuticles in alignment. Although the human hair has not been mixed with synthetic hair, non-remy hair has been stripped of its cuticles in an acid bath.The hair manufacturers must add silicone to keep the hair looking shiny and smooth. The only problem is the silicone eventually shampoos out after just two to four washes, and then it’s a tangled, matted mess!! It will not last s long as 100% Raw virgin or Remy’s hair. Synthetic Hair Although manufactures have made great strides in creating synthetic hair at the end of the day, its just not real hair. You can not change the color or texture of synthetic hair. Synthetic hair has no human hair whatsoever, and it’s completely synthetic and made of plastic. These type of products are not good in length longer than 12 in. and it will surely clump up behind your shoulders. Forget about the synthetic hair, let’s talk about the highest quality hair extensions. Keep in mind that you can view and purchase all of these on our site, just click the links next to the names of each hair! Vietnamese Hair Extensions The Vietnamese hair extensions are just stunning. These gorgeous pieces are sourced from the countryside of Vietnam where the women do not use chemicals on their hair. Profile of Vietnamese Hair. Vietnamese hair is thick, probably the thickest hair we have ever sold. The texture is not silky smooth like the Brazilian. It is a perfect match for a woman who wears sew-ins and extensions, and if you are not into sew-ins, then a wig could be made from purchasing
