Your Hermelle Hair wigs are hand-colored and crafted from 100% raw human hair, designed to last 5+ years while staying soft, silky, and vibrant. Even if you don’t follow every step, they are durable — but for maximum longevity, here’s how to care for them:

 

Step 1: Gentle Washing

  • Always use a hydrating, sulfate-free shampoo to protect your color and prevent dryness.
  • Recommended: Olaplex No. 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo, TRESemme Botanique Damage Recovery Shampoo — repairs, hydrates, and keeps color vibrant.
  • Tip: Wash your wig every 2–3 weeks or when needed, never daily.

 

Step 2: Deep Conditioning

  • Condition after shampooing to restore moisture and softness.
  • Recommended: Olaplex No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner, TRESemme Botanique Damage Recovery Conditioner — deeply hydrates, strengthens, and keeps hair silky.
  • Apply generously from mid-shaft to ends, leave for 5–10 minutes, then rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle.


Step 3: Leave-In for Extra Moisture

  • For added hydration and softness, use a lightweight leave-in conditioner.
  • Recommended: Olaplex No. 6 Bond Smoother, It's A 10 Miracle Leave-In Treatment — protects, tames frizz, and nourishes without weighing hair down.
  • Apply a small amount to damp hair, comb gently with a wide-tooth comb, and style as desired.

 

Step 4: Drying & Styling

  • Pat dry with a towel — never rub.
  • Air-dry on a wig stand or mannequin head to maintain shape.
  • Use heat sparingly. If styling with flat irons or curlers, always use a heat protectant.

 

Step 5: Storage & Protection

  • Store your wig in a satin bag or box to prevent tangling and fading.
  • Try to avoid direct sunlight for extended periods — UV rays can dull color and texture.

 

Step 6: Extra Tips for Vibrant Colors

  • Colored wigs, especially reds, may bleed. Handle carefully during washes and avoid light clothing until fully dry.
