  • A good rule of thumb for shampooing is to only do it once or twice a week with your hair system. Otherwise, your hair system could become damaged more easily. In addition, you should use a leave-in conditioner on a daily basis to keep the hair strong and make it last longer.
  • Hair systems may occasionally shed. This is due to a combination of factors. Bacteria can attack the structure of the hair, making it weaker and causing it to fall out. Additionally, external forces can pull on the hair, making it come loose. To minimize these factors:
    • 1) Try using a leave-in conditioner instead of a traditional rinse-out conditioner.
    • 2) Use a knot sealer to more securely lock the knots that secure the hair to the base material, keeping out residue from things like hair gel and styling materials.
    • 3) Sleep on a softer pillow case, like satin, and avoid hats or other things on your head.
    • 4) Use a de-tangler before brushing or combing.
  • There are a few simple keys to keeping a hair system soft for as long as possible. Avoid shampooing the system frequently, and limit its exposure to chlorine as much as possible. You also should not use a blow dryer on your hair system and allow it to air dry instead. Use a leave-in conditioner as often as possible, and stock up on hair products that block UV rays or contain sunscreen. Following these tips will help the system last as long as possible.
  • Tangled hair in a hair system can get stressed and overworked when subjected to constant brushing. Use a comb with wide teeth while shampooing in order to keep tangles away in the first place, and also try to rinse it in the same direction at all times to prevent tangling. If it has become too hopelessly tangled, you should contact 3rd Dimension Studios to determine if you should use a special detangling procedure, and learn how to do it correctly to avoid damaging your system.
