Yes, you can dye human hair closure wigs, but there are some key things to know in order to achieve the best results without ruining the hair. Here's what you need to know:
1. Type Of Hair
Most human hair wigs, such as closure wigs, can be colored. But there is a consideration when it comes to the kind of hair used. If you have a wig made entirely of 100% human hair, it will usually pick up color well, just like your own hair. But if your wig is mixed with synthetic fibers, you may not be able to color it, or it may result in bad outcomes.
2. Preparation
Prior to coloring, washing, and conditioning, the wig must be stripped of any product buildup. This will enable the dye to better adhere. When working with the wig, use care, as human hair is fragile and susceptible to tangling.
3. Selecting The Correct Dye
If you are changing the color drastically, you can use semi-permanent or permanent dye for a more lasting effect. For a subtle transformation, you can use a hair toner or semi-permanent dye.
4. Test The Dye
Always conduct a strand test prior to dyeing the entire wig. This will determine how the hair responds to the color and provide you with an idea of the result.
5. Dyeing Process
Apply the dye carefully and evenly. Be sure to follow the instructions on the dye packaging, and use a dye brush for precision.
6. Aftercare
Once dyed, treat your wig with extra care. Deep condition regularly to maintain softness and shine, and avoid excessive heat styling to prevent further damage.
