COLD SET
To remove cold set, spray water generously on the affected area and wait for a few moments. Brush gently to remove cold set and let wig completely dry. For human hair wigs follow above instruction or use hot roller or iron at low to medium heat setting. Excessive cold set problems can occur to human hair. This will help you to bring out the original beauty of a wig.
FIXING TANGLED HAIR
For human hair wigs, curling iron or rollers at low to medium heat may be used along with a setting lotion. Due to excessive combing and/or rubbing on clothing, tips of hair tend to tangle. Start brushing tips of hair first taking longer lengths of hair with each stroke to untangle. Spray curling gel and wrap with curling paper before putting on rollers to restore the original curls.
DISPLAY
Do not apply hairspray on displayed wigs. Use fingers or picks to lift and shape curls. Use tall mannequin or increase the height of the mannequin so that end of long hair do not rest on shelf. Do not use brush or comb nor shake special curl wigs to bring out curls. Most wigs do not need extra styling when taken out of package. Simply give a light shake and touch up with finger, this will bring out the salon perfect style as is shown in our Website.
STORAGE
Allow adequate storage space for wigs to maximize your customers’ satisfaction and your profit. Do not force a wig into small space. Never remove protective packaging materials to save space, or store in a high humidity or hot space. Avoid stacking wigs high. Such storage may cause serious cold set damages. Once taken out of package, restore curls and fold wig as when it first came out of package before putting it back into package for storage. - 3:Basic Part of a Wig

- 4:How to measure your head
-
Here are 3 simple steps to measure your head correctly:
Before you measure your head, make sure to flatten your hair, use a cloth tape measure and do not pull the tape measure, just rest it over or around your head.1. Measure around your head at the hairline. The "around your head" size of every wig can be adjusted up to 1" larger or smaller to ensure a secure fit. The tape should be just above the ear and along your natural hairline.
2. Measure your head from the nape over the crown to the top of your forehead where your natural hairline is.
3. Measure your head from the top of one ear, across the top of the head (crown) and to the top of the other ear.
With the 3 measurements listed above, you will have the circumference, depth and width of your wig cap.
