1. Place the wig on your head and split the hair into a minimum of 4 sections, working through steps 2 and 3 one section at a time.
2. Using a spray bottle dampen the hair and apply a conditioner of your choice.
3. Run your finger through the hair to remove any major tangles and then using a wide tooth comb detangle the hair.
4. Remove the sections from the wig, take the wig off of your head and wet it thoroughly with lukewarm water.
5. Shampoo the hair from the root to tip, using your fingers to distribute the product.
   (Throughout the process place your hand inside the wig and hold it upright in order to preserve the shape.)
6. Rinse well.
7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 two to three more times depending on how much product builds up is on the hair.
8. Towel dry the hair to remove the excess water. Do not rub the hair, use a wiping motion.
