Summarize the following:
Styling the wig white it's on a foam head will give you the freedom to work on the style from every angle. You can get a foam head from a wig store or beauty supply store or online for about $5. Rather than using your regular hair bush, get one made of stainless steel. Use it to carefully brush the wig hair, starting at the ends and working your way to the roots. Brushing the wig will "wake up" the fibers. Synthetic wigs are inexpensive and therefore aren't made to last very long. However, using styling products can cause the wig to deteriorate even faster! Don't use any products, like hairspray or heat protectants, on synthetic hair. Heat tools, like a curling iron or straightener will ruin the synthetic fibers. However, you can use steam to remove kinks or set a style. If you often wear synthetic wigs, you should invest in a handheld steamer, like the ones used to get wrinkles out of clothing. If you want to add curls to the wig, put the hair in foam rollers, then go over it with the steamer. Let the wig cool and dry, then remove the rollers.
Do your initial styling on a foam head. Use a stainless steel brush on synthetic wigs. Avoid using any styling products. Use steam rather than heat tools.
