Detangle gently, starting at the ends
Work from the ends upwards with the tool recommended for your piece. Support the hair to limit tension on the base. A knot needs patience, not a tug of war.
Check the hair type before selecting products. This guide covers human hair; synthetic fibres have their own care requirements.
Use shampoo for washing
LX shampoo is designed for the human hair used in hair systems. Apply and rinse it according to the product and hairpiece directions, without bunching up the hair or twisting the base.
Washing frequency depends on wear and your specialist’s recommendations. Find a schedule that suits your routine rather than applying the same timetable to every wig.
The JeVeuxMesCheveux care guide (in French) offers further advice for human hair systems.
A mask and a leave-in spray do different jobs
LX regenerating mask is a rinse-out treatment for the hair fibre. LX leave-in conditioner is a no-rinse spray for the lengths and ends. The mask fits into the washing routine; the spray provides care without a rinsing step.
Follow the product directions for quantity and, for the mask, processing time. Adding more product is not a shortcut to a better routine.
Protect the base and attachment points
Hair fibre and the base need different care. Keep conditioners away from attachment areas and follow the application zones specified for the piece. Wig manufacturers caution that conditioner on hand-tied areas may loosen the knots.
If adhesive remains on the scalp or base, deal with that before moving on to hair care.
Take care when drying and styling
Gently blot out excess water with a towel, without twisting. The drying method, stand and heated tools must suit your model. Human hair does not mean every temperature setting is suitable.
If the texture changes or tangles become more frequent, review washing and product use before adding another treatment.
An LX routine your client can follow
In the salon, show the client where each product goes and explain which one needs rinsing. Three names make the routine easy to remember: shampoo, mask and leave-in spray.
