How to care for a men's hair system | Abingdon | Didcot | Wantage | Oxfordshire

Yes, to a point. However not all those changes require ‘more’ but in some instances, less time! It’s important to remember that a hair system whilst natural hair does have a time limit of roughly six months before it needs replacing therefore caring for your hair system as best as you can will enable you to both maximise your hair system and in some cases exceed the recommend allowance for a hair system. In some cases hair systems won’t make it to six months therefore your routine becomes important. however it doesn’t need to be complicated. In our experience so long as you care for your hair system, using appropriate products and managing your hair system in-salon when advised, there is no reason why you can’t look after it.

When washing your hair system, it’s important to limit shampooing to once every two weeks, instead conditioning only when you would ordinarily shampoo. Whilst shampooing is still important, doing this too frequently will break down the system much more quickly. Conditioning your hair system regularly maintains its condition, visual appeal and to the touch it will remain soft. However whilst you can purchase specific products for your hair system, most conditioners will work sufficiently and asking your Stylist which they would recommend would be sensible.

It’s too worth mentioning from a styling point of view that given it’s not your hair, limiting styling tools such as straighteners is advised avoiding damaging the fibre. Some styling products will be fine too, however again if you are unsure, ask your Stylist.

Not specifically. Most gentle shampoo’s and conditioners will be compatible however your Stylist (if in doubt) will be able to make recommendations based upon your specific hair replacement system. We would recommend something that is gentle, sulphate-free and that will be kind to your new hair system.
