How long can you wear a lace front wig?
Commonly, a human hair lace front wig can be left on one's head for up to six weeks. But we don't suggest you keep a wig on for a long time. If you wanna get the answer more clearly yet, keep reading this post. We are also discussing human hair lace front wig's lifespan and how you can increase it specifically. So, let's start.
How long can you keep a wig on?
Wig installation longevity depends on two different things if you do not interfere in its installation: 1. How fast your hair grows, etc., and 2. Adhesive longevity.
Number one, if you sew in the lace frontal wig, how long it will stay on your head impeccably depends on how fast your hair grows. Its installation stays on the head at the perfect place for four weeks before you see hair growing from the scalp. If you have installed the lace frontal via glue/adhesive, its longevity depends on how skillfully it is installed.
Number two, some adhesives you apply to install lace frontal on your head are short-term, and some provide long-term bonding long enough to make a wig last 4 to 6 months.
Above is explained how sew-in and glue-in 13x4 lace frontal stay last on the head if we don't interfere with removing it. But the actual answer we want is after how many days or weeks we should remove our wig from the head to keep the scalp and hair healthy?
The best answer to this is every day. Cause to avoid bacterial growth and itching, removing the wig and letting your natural hair breathe freely is necessary. Besides, to prolong the lifespan of your lace front wig, removing the wig and setting it on a mannequin head at night is a sensible option. But if you do in a situation that needs to keep the wig on healthily for a longer time, we suggest you don't leave your wig on your head for more than 2 weeks.
Some people keep wearing the same wig for more than six weeks depending on how their body reacts, but still, six weeks' time duration is the maximum limit.
After all, we have to perceive the wig as a fancy accessory to beautify us, not as an alternative to the natural hair (that is ours and real). So, it is necessary not to ignore your natural hair and scalp while covering it with a wig.
How long does a lace front wig last?
Human hair lace frontal wigs offered by Virgin Hair Vendor can survive more than one year with proper care.
The longevity of the human hair frontal wig relies on how one takes care of it. You must know that a wig base can be of different materials, like lace, silk, monofilament, polyurethane, etc. These base materials have different life spans. So, it also depends on what is base material is and how good it has been made.
Let's sum up clearly, wig's longevity relies on:
1. How nicely you manage for it.
2. It's base material.
3. How good it is made.
Tips To Prolong the Lifespan of A Lace Front Wig:
As you read above nicely taking care of human hair lace frontal wig contributes to increasing the longevity of it. Below we have listed some caring tips on each step of caring. Let's get to know them.
- Washing:
Do not make the mistake of pouring shampoo or conditioner into the hair. Opt for any shampoo and conditioner you like but make sure the shampoo is sulfate-free and paraben-free and does not also have any harsh chemicals. You can do this by opting for mild and high-quality products.
Instead of pouring shampoo on the wig, take a big bowl of lukewarm water and pour shampoo into it. Stir it to dissolve the shampoo in water, and there are no bigger chunks. Submerge the frontal in the big bowl. Hold the wig from its cap side and start washing it in one direction to avoid tangles. If your wig is extra cleansing, let it submerge in the bowl for hours or overnight.
Do the same as for conditioning your wig, but you have a choice to dissolve the conditioner in the water or rub a small amount of it between your palms every time before applying it to the wig.
- Drying:
After washing, place a big towel on a clean straight surface, and put your wig on one-half side of the towel. Then set the second half of the tower above it, like you are sandwiching the wig with the towel.
Press and pat it to absorb the water from the sopping wet wig. Then hang it properly to let it air-dry.
- Detangling or Combing:
After washing and drying, the next stage is to detangle/comb it. Remember, if your human hair frontal wig is curly, apply products, comb, and style it when the wig is damp.
Other all types of wig textures should be combed after drying. Start detangling from hair ends and work your way up. Be sure to stay gentle to solve any severe hair tangle or knot.
- Storing:
Before storing your human hair lace front wig should be washed/cleaned before storing. Make sure to save the wig box to store it properly. If you have lost the wig box or its shape is rigid now, use a silk or satin sack bag and lay it down in a shoebox.
Another method is to put the wig on a wig stand and wrap a satin or silk fabric on the wig. This method protects your wig from being dusty and avoids friction between hair strands that can cause brittleness or tangles in wigs.
Store your wigs in a cool and dark place, so their color and moisture do not fade away.
