human hair wigs are considered very flexible hairpieces. You may use them anytime you want and have the items in your possession for a long time.

But, you also have to take note that you should take care of them like you would your own hair. You can purchase long wigs because you want to cover your short natural hair. Of course, you also have the option to style these hair accessories just to make sure you will get the look you want.

Here are some hints and tips on how to style your natural hair counterparts.

Styling tools. Just like you are allowed to use curling irons, flat irons and blow dryers for your natural hair, you can do the same thing to your real hair wigs. You must take note, however, that your wigs should not be excessively exposed to these items. If you do so, the hairpiece will tend to be brittle. Unlike your own hair, the heat damaged hair cannot be cut and re-grown. This means that you may not be able to use the accessories for as long as you want. Styling with these tools requires conscientious efforts from you as the wig wearer.

Combs and brushes. Use a wide tooth comb to work on the tresses of these human hair wigs. Combing is a part of styling your natural hair. You may do the same thing for your wigs. There is however a limitation to doing that. Using a wide tooth comb is recommended over other types of comb.

Hairbrushes are a no-no too. Try to imagine what happens when you brush your hair. You cannot avoid the fact that hair strands fall out with the brush. Remember that natural hair grows while a wig does not. Comb from the bottom working your way up and do not comb while the hair is wet.
