5. Drying Methods: Hang to air dry, set in rollers, or use a blow dryer on a low setting as desired.
Styling:
1. Curling: Steam rollers or wet setting are the safest methods.
2. Thermal Tools: Use blow dryers, curling irons, etc., on low settings. Avoid high heat to prevent scorching.

Please note: Protect synthetic wigs from heat damage. Avoid hair dryers, curling irons, and other heat sources like stoves, ovens, barbecues, and lighters.
Wearing Suggestions
Hair Products: Avoid traditional hair sprays and tonics. These can leave residues and damage the rooting system. Only use products specifically designed for wigs and hairpieces.
Swimming: While you can swim with your hairpiece, remember to rinse it post-swimming. Chlorine and salt can cause bleaching and brittleness.
Sunlight: Limit exposure to sunlight as it can fade all hair.
Sleeping: Avoid sleeping with your hairpiece regularly. This can reduce its lifespan.
Off-the-Head Care: Store your hairpiece on a Styrofoam head block. Make sure the hair hangs naturally inwards and never let it rest upside-down on hard surfaces.
