How to Wash Your Lace Wig

!±8± How to Wash Your Lace Wig

Washing your lace wig unit is extremely important if you want it to last long and look good, while conditioning will give it a soft feel and a glimmering appeal. Your unit should be thoroughly washed and conditioned preferably once a week or once every two weeks to avoid excessive wear on the lace.

All you need to start with is a wide tooth comb and a mannequin or a foam wig head and you are on your way. Foam wig heads are more convenient to use as they are light weight and the wig can be secured onto it using pins.

First comb through the wig in straight strokes from the end of the hair and work your way up, this will remove tangles and knots.

Place the wig in the sink, still on the mannequin and saturate it with warm water.

Pour your shampoo into a spray bottle with water and spray the shampoo onto the hair instead of applying it directly.

Gently run your fingers through the wig and do not rub it into the unit as this will cause it to tangle.

Gently rinse the shampoo from the unit by placing under a stream of water and massaging it down towards toward the ends.

Your unit is now clean and is ready for conditioning. To condition, apply deep conditioner in the same manner as shampooing using a spray bottle. Allow the conditioner to work on the hair for about ten minutes.

Use luke warm water to rinse the conditioner out, never use hot water. Ensure that all residue has been removed thoroughly.

When you are sure that all the conditioner has been rinsed out, gently squeeze the hair to remove the water. This is to be done gradually and very careful to avoid tangling.

Use a soft absorbent hand towel or cloth to remove excess water. Do this slowly and thoroughly to ensure all the water is gone and you do not end up with a tangled mop of hair.

You can lay your unit on a dry towel to dry instead of hanging it to dry. Laying it out will preserve the shape of your unit. Do not use a hair dryer or any heat source to dry the wig as this will heat up the water on the unit and could damage the wig. Comb out any tangles using the wide tooth comb. After your unit is now dry, you can also use a flat iron or a curling tongs to style it to your preference.

Olive Oil - Not Just For Food

!±8± Olive Oil - Not Just For Food

Here is something to go along with my article '10 Surprisingly Useful Uses for Vinegar'.

Olive oil has been around for centuries. It has been traced back to before 3500 BC. Olive oil has no cholesterol and has more monounsaturated fat than any other fat or oil in use, that's the good fat. Here are some other ways, aside from food, that I have found are great uses for olive oil.

1. Kitties - I love my cat. Her hacked up hairballs, um, not so much. Dry or moist, just a teaspoon added to the food and your kitty will have soft and shiny fur, and buh bye hairballs.

2. Tangles and Damage - I wish I had known this trick prior to beauty school. I may not have cut off my waist length hair. For tangles, just rub a bit into the tangle and comb out. I no longer have the need to buy the expensive detangler spray for my kidlets. Save some of that hard earned money in this recession by giving yourself a deep olive oil conditioner. No need to go pay + for a deep conditioner at a salon. Saturate your hair and scalp with olive oil, cover with a shower cap. Shampoo out 30 minutes later and viola! Have shiny, gorgeous hair that a model would envy. =)

3. Earaches - This one is tried and true. My momma used this one on me, but back then it was called 'sweet oil' and with 5 kids this little trick has saved me from many a night time trip to the ER. I put a cup of water in the microwave to get it hot. Put a couple of tablespoons of olive oil in a sandwich bag. Put the bag in the cup of water until the oil is warm. Drop the warm oil in the ear that is hurting, put in a cotton ball, and it holds the kids over until the doctor is open in the morning. =)

4. Skin Moisturizing - I have very dry sky. I have tried all types of lotions, from cheap to very expensive, but have found that olive oil works better than anything I have tried prior. On top of ingesting it, you can apply oil olive directly to the skin. Add it to your bath. Use it for chapped lips. Gentlemen, put aside the shaving cream and apply the olive oil. Shave and rinse. A teaspoon rubbed in after the rinse can ease that shaving burn as well.

5. Furniture polish - Commercial furniture polishes have a nice scent, clean well, but are pricey. As well, I am not comfortable having my little ones eat their snacks off of a coffee table that I cleaned with chemicals. Get a cheap spray bottle, add olive oil and the juice of a lemon or half an orange and polish the furniture. It smells so good, the wood is super shiny, and no chemicals to be afraid of.

6. Lice - I can't stand lice. My middle daughter had a terrible case that she got from school. She had hair below her waist, but it is baby fine. The commercial lice treatment damaged her hair so badly that it had to be cut to her chin. My poor baby was devastated. The next time her dear friend gave her lice, I soaked her hair in olive oil, covered it with a shower cap, and let it sit for 45 minutes. I then used the lice comb to remove the nits, and I didn't have to fight the comb to go through. Shampoo twice after the nits are removed. To keep the lice from coming back I just massage a small amount into her hair and scalp after her hair is shampooed and dried.

7. Paint removal - My honey found a can of green paint under the sink of the house we recently moved into. Our twins found this and their hands and arms were covered in the ugliest green paint ever. Rub the olive oil into the skin where the paint is. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then wash off with some soap and water.

8. Squeaky hinges - We have an older home. And some stiff, squeaky hinges. To fix the stiffness and squeak just rub a few drops on the hinge with a soft rag then work then hinge. It will free up and remove the squeak. Works on car hinges too.

9. Personal lubricant - Buh bye KY Jelly. Enough said...:P

10. Shoe polish - Use the furniture polish spray described above. Mist onto your shoes and buff with a soft cloth.
