Synthetics are great for wigs and extensions because they provide a cheaper options.
But they tend to get snarly and matted quickly.
I'm gonna show you how to take a cheaper synthetic wig that's snarly and matted.
And make it back into the soft and luxurious hair that it originally came as.
Synthetics can be a great alternative to human hair because it is less expensive.
But over time synthetics can get pretty *** and snarly.
I'm gonna teach you in this tutorial.
How to correct those snarls and bring it back to that nice silky smooth that it was when you purchased it.
The first thing that you'll need, is you'll need an everyday extension brush.
These have a nylon bristle, not a boar's bristle.
Similar in look but these are much stiffer.
You'll also need a looper and that will help you de-tangle.
Some combs with a tail for sectioning.
Clips.
And a blow dryer.
The first thing that we are going to do is we're going to carve off a small section.
Gonna clip that section out of the way.
And the first thing we're gonna do is run the looper through it.
And what that's gonna do is de-tangle it.
If you are having a hard time even getting this first section away.
Then I want you to do the looper on the whole wig first.
Second, we're gonna take our everyday extension brush.
And we're gonna push the bristles until you can see them all the way through.
And this is also why we work in smaller sections.
We need to be able to see these bristles coming through.
Then we're going to put our dryer onto a fairly high heat.
And we're going to keep this moving.
That's our first pass.
We're gonna do a few passes over each section until we feel that all of the snarls and been removed.
If you are working with a curly wig or something that's wavy.
You are going to take it all the way back to straight and then we're going to add in the curls and waves as a secondary step.
Alright.
Now our brush is actually getting all the way through that section. We're ready to move on.
Continue work in in the same way until you've completed the entire wig.
This method works with all types of extensions and wigs.
This hair that's been snarly and really hard to get through is now soft and luxurious.
