When investing in premium hair extensions or wigs, it’s essential to check the quality before committing. One of the best ways to do this? The hair wash test! A simple wash can reveal a lot about the hair’s durability, color retention, and shedding.
Here’s how to do it right.
Wash with Lukewarm Water and Mild Shampoo
Start by gently washing the hair in lukewarm water (not hot!) using a sulfate-free, mild shampoo. Hot water can strip moisture and cause unnecessary stress, while harsh shampoos may accelerate color fading.
What to Look for in High-Quality Hair
After washing, premium hair should:
✨ Shed minimally
A few strands are normal, but excessive shedding indicates poor quality.
✨ Retain its color
No bleeding, fading, or dullness after washing. High-quality hair keeps its vibrancy!
Post-Wash Care
Drying the Hair Properly:
✨ Gently pat dry with a towel,avoid rough rubbing to prevent tangling and breakage.
✨Air dry naturally. Heat styling right after washing can damage the hair.
Let it dry on its own for the best results.
Final Thoughts
If the hair passes this test—minimal shedding, vibrant color, and smooth texture—you’ve got a high-quality batch! If not, it might be time to reconsider your supplier.
Stay tuned for the next steps!
