Looking beautiful in your lace wig will only lead to outward beauty. While her hair will remain beautiful, her general health must be maintained. Many women who are avid fitness enthusiasts fear hair systems and other hair extensions because they don’t know how to work out with them. As in any other occasion, a lace unit is the perfect fit. Here are some ways to keep fit and look great while doing it.
Before exercising
There are a few things to do before exercising on your hair system. Obviously, exercise promotes the accumulation of sweat and dirt. These two things can cause breakouts and dry hair. Using a sweatband or silk cap is a good way to prevent sweat and dirt from getting into the lace wig’s hairline. If too much sweat and dirt starts to get into the unit, it will be difficult to clean while you’re still using it and can cause breakouts.
To protect the ends of your human hair from getting soaked with sweat and dirt, tie your hair in a ponytail or bun. This will be very simple for full snap units. If you have a front lace unit, strategically wear your cap or sweatband over the back of your neck to cover up. By putting your hair up in a high ponytail or bun, you will also prevent it from getting tangled in synthetic hair systems.
after exercising
When you’re done exercising, your first instinct will be to wash your hair. Although you can wash your lace wig like your natural hair, there are some things you should avoid. You’ll want to wait until you get home to wash your hair. Many women wash their hair at their gym and then travel home. Exposure to air, dirt, and possible bacteria can breed germs and mold.
You should wait until you get home, grab your sweatband after you’ve stopped sweating, and then wash your hair. To dry, use a hood dryer so your unit dries completely as well as the hair underneath. You’ll also want to cater to your ends with the lace wig. Combing the ends afterwards will prevent your hair system from getting tangled.
If you don’t want to wash your hair completely, take a mild soap for sensitive skin and work it around the edges of your hair. This will clean the natural oils that are secreted near the glued hairline of the lace wig. These oils break down the adhesive bond and cause you to reapply the unit more often.
When you take off your lace wig
When you remove your hair system, be sure to wash it well. Leaving oils, dirt, and sweat on human hair wigs will have the same effect as on your own hair. Sweat makes all human hair very dry and can damage it. A simple wash with water initially is a good idea to dilute all the acidity of the sweat. Next, it is required to properly wash and condition both the lace wig and the hair. You’ll also want to deep condition your own hair.
Following these steps will keep your hair and body happy while you work on your hair system. The best advice is to follow the same steps for your human hair unit as you do for your own hair. For synthetic hair units, be sure to take extra care so they don’t get tangled.
