Maintenance after Purchase Q&A

Q.How to care of the wigs?

It can be cared easily at home, just wash with water and exclusive shampoo & conditioner, then leave it to air drying. Please avoid using hot water or a hair dryer on wigs made of Synthetic fibres or mixed hair since they can be damaged by heat. It depends on the season or how to care, though usually even if the wig was for daily use, shampooing once in a week to 10 days would be enough.

Q.What should I do when the waves/curls have gone?

It is considered that the major cause of that would be as follows; dirt, teasing hair too much, brushing when the hair is still wet, shampooing with hot water, etc. A daily care can make waves/curls stay longer, though in the case of you need to restore waves/curls, Fontaine provides the customer service with fee which is to take care of a customer’s wig at store.

Q.Is it possible to change the hair style of a wig after the purchase?

If you use our customer service with fee, you could enjoy various type of hair arranges including hair cut and curls, and for a human hair wig, getting parmed or hair dyeing are also available (hair dyeing is only available for the same/darker and not the lighter compared to the original colour).

Q.How long would a wig last?

It depends on the frequency of use or how to care, though many of our customers tend to use their wigs long time getting maintenance by our customer service with fee from time to time. For everyday use, we recommend to have an alternative wig and use it in turn.
