| Removing
the Wig: |
- Loosen the adhesion
with either Bond Off, Spirit Gum Remover or Acetone (nail polish remover).
Do not pull on the lace! Use the blunt end of a 3" hairpin
and slide it under the lace to release the glue.
|
- Pull out the
big anchor pins and the small hairpins. Sometimes using a 3" hairpin
prongs as a plucker is easier to get at the pins to remove them.
|
- Slide your thumbs
back behind the ear and under the wig and lift the wig up and forward.
|
- Place a cloth
in your hand behind the wig lace and use a natural hair brush to clean
the glue off the lace with acetone. This must be done each time after
the wig is worn.
|
- Place the wig
on a stand and make sure none of the lace or hair is caught up under
the wig. Using quilting pins (the ones with the colored bead at the
end) or corsage pins, anchor the wig to the wig block only in the very
top scalp of the wig, never in the front lace.
|
- Comb or brush
the wig before leaving it. Perspiration and tangles are not a good thing.
