How to cleanse your new alternative hair

1- Pour one half ounce of wig shampoo (15mL= 1 TBLSP) into your glass or plastic tub [do not use a sink as the metal around the drain could react with the synthetic fibers and damage them]
2- Fill your container with “luke-cool” water creating a solution with the water and cleaning agent. Never use hot water on your wigs as this will ruin the fibers
3- Submerge your alternative hair in the solution. Move it around -swish! Then let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before swishing again- remove to a wig hanger
5-Empty and rinse your container before refilling with more clear “luke-cool” water
Place hair into this fresh water and swish again
6- Repeat with fresh cool clear water until the water is clean and clear when you rinse your alternative hair.
7-Give your alternative hair a good shake and stuff the inside with a clean fluffy towel and wrap the outside of your hair with a fresh towel as well and give it a squeeze
8-Remove from towels and shake out your hair. Place on a wig hanger, spritz lightly with conditioner and leave to dry. You will spritz your hair almost daily with conditioner so don't go too heavy the first time!

Wait until your alternative hair is totally dry before attempting to brush. Don't be tempted, the damage that can happen... it's not worth taking a chance.

Every other time you wear your hair you will want to give it a light spritzing with your leave-in conditioner. To do this start by holding your hair from the nape and giving it a good shake before beginning to spritz away at it. On the other days spritz lightly with plain water.

You can brush through straight styles. Never brush out a tight curl wig. Shorter styles which are more wave than curl as fine to be brushed out.

What 3 foods are the key to growing healthy hair?

Is your hair just NOT growing healthy, thick, and long?

How do we keep those hair follicles healthy and happy when we are sick and sad and undergoing chemo and radiation?

Rosemary and Sage, Aloe Vera Juice, too.
Eat it. Wear it. As for the boar bristled hair brush- Use It!

My favourite brand of Aloe Vera Juice is REAL Brand Aloe Vera Juice. The taste, for this bitter cactus, it delightfully without bite. The other brands I have tried tasted more like h2o2 and made me gag.

My favourite brand of Rosemary and Sage are the ones growing in my garden. Because they are so bountiful and readily available.

So what do we do with rosemary, sage, and aloe? Well we eat it. But how?

The Real Brand Aloe Vera Juice is easy. Pour a chilled glass and enjoy! Its texture is smooth and soothing. Very beneficial to the G.I. tract. Its taste is clean without the nasty choking bite that other brands deal out.

I use rosemary and sage when I make chicken. Use these herbs in chicken soup, in any broth.

Also, make a tea of those two herbs; when it has cooled to your most comfortable temperature pour it onto your scalp. Doing this almost daily helped me to bring new life and health to my body and brought back my hair, thick and healthy.

Brushing your scalp stimulates circulation. Do you have a boar bristle brush for this purpose? Give your hair follicles a fighting chance! Treat them right. Get your scalp healthy and keep it that way by enjoying a good scalp brushing twice daily.
