How to care for the braided wig

Box braids have been an excellent option for women, but many people are now happily turning to a chignon-free version of the look. Traditional BOX Braids WIG is easy to care for and keeps natural strands that need a break from daily treatment looking beautiful. But some of the other harsh realities that can come with box braids include pain, weight, susceptibility to build-up, and bacteria in the knots created at the base of each leaf. 
Knotless Braids borrow the idea of traditional, fully sculpted, boxy parts but are usually held tight at the bottom due to the extra length of hair used in each braid. Braided wigs have been trending for a few years now and are slowly spreading all over the world.

Benefits of braided hair:

1) Braided wigs save time.
No need to sit in a salon chair for hours while different people braid their hair. These hours represent a significant amount of time. It also saves you or your stylist the time to remove them.
 
2) Braided wigs are cost-effective
An excellent braided wig can last up to two years with proper care. The initial cost is high, but considering how long it takes, it's worth it.
 
3) Effective preventive method
When you braid your hair, the ends and back of your hair are cut short, making it less likely to go bald. It also has edge tension. A braided wig maintains tension at the edges and neck.
 
4) Braided wigs are comfortable styles
Most protective styles require combing every morning, and braided wigs don't give you that. Knotless Braid Wig is lifesavers when you are busy.

However, most people do not properly care for braided wigs, which will damage the wig. Here are some steps to care for your 360 Lace Braided Wigs.
 

    • Wash the wig with mild shampoo and warm water. Do not wash the wig with boiling water. Curls may look cracked. Also, since braided wigs are synthetic, washing them in hot water can damage the fibbers and cause the braids to fall out.
    • Straighten the ends of the braid by soaking them in warm water.
    • Always moisturize a braided wig after washing, and use styling mousse and hairspray to keep it smooth and shiny.
    • Do not use nearby heating devices on the wig. This includes a hairdryer. This is because the wig is synthetic and can melt from the heat.
    • Do not sleep with a braided wig. The ends of the wig can get tangled.
    • Always hang braided wigs when not used, and do not tie them with nylon bags.
    • Take care of the primary hair. Remember to detangle your hair every two to three weeks.
    • Do not wet the braided wig frequently.

Following these steps will help your braided wig last longer.
