Wigs are worn year-round for various reasons, from fashion changes to medical hair loss like chemotherapy. If you wear your wig daily, especially in winter, proper care is essential.
Caring for a wig in winter is straightforward but requires some extra precautions to maintain its longevity.
Snowfall
In winter, snow is more common and poses a risk to your wig by getting it wet. Protect your wig from snow with a rain cap, headscarf, or umbrella. These measures shield the wig from moisture.
Drying a Wet Wig
If snow does make your wig wet, remove it promptly to prevent excessive moisture. Decide whether washing is necessary. Place the wig on its stand in a warm, dry area to air-dry naturally. This method minimizes potential winter damage to the wig.
