Steps for Nighttime Hair System Care

Step 1: Apply Hair Oil to Your Hair System

Massage some hair oil into your hair replacement before bed to keep it smooth and healthy throughout the night. Use some hair oil of your choice, either argan or Moroccan oil. Take one or two pumps and rub it into the ends to protect it from tangling. Avoid applying it directly on the roots to allow easy cleaning.

Step 2: Brush Your Hair System

The important part of maintaining a non-surgical hair replacement system is to ensure that the system is tangle-free at night. It is gently combed or brushed with a special comb or brush in one direction to avoid any hard tug on the hair. Be certain there are no knots in the hair before going to bed to avoid damage and enhance the life span of the hair system.

Step 3: Put on a Headband

Wearing a headband before bed can help secure your hair system. Place the headband around the edges of the hair system, particularly along the hairline. The following helps to absorb oils from the forehead area that otherwise would break down the adhesive during the night, which will hold the men's hair pieces firmly in place.

Step 4: Wear a Silk or Satin Sleep Cap

This is because, as you sleep, there is some friction between your hair system and the pillow that could damage your toupee. Wearing a silk or satin sleep cap will reduce this friction and, hence, prevent tangling and pulling on your hair to keep it soft, which minimizes the risk of shedding.

Morning Hair System Care Routine

Step 1: Remove the Sleep Cap

Remove your sleep cap upon waking up. If you are not going to shower, then you can go ahead and attend to your hair replacement systems by gently brushing it. But if you're going to shower, ensure that you first put on a shower cap to keep moisture away from your toupee.

Step 2: Apply a Detangling Spray

With a detangling spray, combing through any hair replacement system is easy and minimizes the risk of pulling, thus maintaining its shine and smoothness. Also, remember to use a heat protectant spray before blow-drying to make sure your hair is protected from any damage caused by the heat.

Step 3: Comb and Style

Gently comb out or brush your hair toppers with a detangling brush/combs. This will help you style your hair with much ease, but it also minimizes tangling, which promotes a long life for the hair system.
