Revitalizing wigs

[Charlize]

I wear a wig at all times when i'm awake. I shave my head as it just makes it easier. The hair i've got isn't worth cultivating. Over the last two years ( as of May) i've lived with 2 wigs for the most part. They are synthetic and just feel great to me. Not too hot in the summer and i always get compliments on the style and color. I just had to get a new one. When i opened the box i was amazed at how beat the older wig was. Does anyone know of a product that restores wigs at all. I have ordered still another for a reserve. They are not super expensive but i hate loosing old friends and am a generally cheap person. For now i guess i'll use the new one for times when i leave the farm but it would be nice if it looked better.

Thanks and hugs,

Charlie

Not sure how much it would help, but I did a quick google search for wig revitalization. One of the first results I got was for this TressAlure Wig Revitalizing Spray Conditioner from Revlon. Maybe looking into it a little more would give you more/better options (price I see is $4.99 however!).

Quick question to you about wigs though Charlie, seeing as I was intrigued by this post having the word "Wig" in the topic, where would you recommend someone new to wigs to look? I'm eager to look at some since my hair is thinning out quite quickly from genetics.

Hope I've helped a little, and thanks if you can help me out a little!

The one I use for my wig collection is one I got in the store of these folks http://www.wilshirewigs.com. The actual brand they sold me is Brandywine Revitalizing Conditioner and it does a reasonable job on my good wigs, including the ones I have modeled in my gallery.

Mirilyn, give the site above a look see. My favorite brands are Jon Renau, Revlon, and Louis Ferre.

Also places I have bought from are Wigs.com, and Ace Wigs.

Last Saturday I was with a new girl buying her first wig, and going to just a commercial brick and mortar store is pretty easy, they want to sell the wigs and cash is the what they are looking at. The stores a known for keeping their mouths shut since a large number of customers have medical needs for the wigs. (You do too if you look at it that way!) The girl I went with bought one for <$100US and while not what I would buy, will do her for a decent length of time because she is not full time as Charlie is. Also go to the ones The Breast Form Store had, they are good quality but they do not have the selection the other sites have.

Thank you for the information! I'll definitely look more (I've spent a good 20+ minutes already since seeing your post).

Thanks for the ideas. I get my wigs recently from a supply store called Beauty Trends. Their wigs are reasonable. I have gotten some that didn't work for me but have had luck as well. My favorite now seems remarkably cheap at $59. I can't ask for better at less. If i were to try to better i'm not sure at this point that there is a bricks and mortar store near us that would have as large a selection. I do miss the chance to try things on but they have a decent return policy.

Hugs,

Charlie

I'm very late to this post but I found a great place for good quality and good prices as well at http://www.wigsmart.co.uk/click on the US flag at the bottom right of the page for US currency.
