Great Tools for Hair Replacement Wearer’s
There are a couple of very simple tools that can make a huge difference in the ease with which you style and care for your hair replacement. One of these is a Canvas Head - these are more durable, more stable and therefore, provide a much more comfortable and easy way to style your hair replacement while using a blow dryer or any hot-tool. Canvas heads come in varying diameter sizes so you are able to order one that will fit the size of your wig perfectly so as not to stretch out the base, helping to increase the longevity of your system. It has the added benefit of absorbing moisture after shampooing so the hair can dry faster vs. a styrofoam head where the moisture just sits on top.
You can also purchase a long-neck canvas head which is great for longer pieces because it prevents the hair from hitting the top of the counter/table and ruining a finished hair style.
Other styling tools that can make a difference in your ability to work with and style your hair replacement easily and professionally are wig stands; including suction clamps, counter-top clamps and full tripods. These tools are used to place the canvas (or styrofoam) head on thereby providing a firm and secure/anchored base. You can then use any hot-tool to create whatever style you desire
The tripod is a wonderful tool to use to place your canvas head on that will give you a very secure base and 360 degree access to the head – which makes stylingvery easy. So rather than having to stop mid-style, turn the head to reach the next section of hair you simply move around the head working each section as needed.
