Heat styling a synthetic wig

Lush wigs are made of a high temperature synthetic fibre that can be heated to 140°C (284°F).

Always look for ceramic heat styling tools

Ceramic heat tools offer even heat distribution, making the appliance more gentle. An adjustable temperature setting is also essential, allowing you to customize the heat up to 140c, but never above this setting. Look for safety certifications like CE (Conformité Européenne) or BS EN (British Standard European Norm) which indicate the appliance meets safety standards.

Use a leave in-conditioner to protect

Before applying any heat to your wig, for best results use a leave in-conditioner to add extra protection. This lets your heat tools work on a smoother surface of hair.

Use Low to Medium Heat Settings

Always use a heat setting of 140°C (284°F) or under on your styling tools. High temperatures can lead to damage and shortening the life of the wig.
Note: This is the lowest setting on most hair tools. Please check your tools specifications before styling your wig.

Allow Sufficient Cooling Time

After heat styling, allow your wig to cool down. This cooling period helps the hairstyle set.
Just use some bobbie pins to hold curls in place, once cooled: remove.
