Wash gently, in lukewarm water, with a sulphate-free shampoo. Work from the ends upward and avoid rubbing the lace.

Detangle when damp

Use a wide-tooth comb from the ends up, one section at a time, while the hair is damp.

Dry on a stand

Blot with a towel and let it air-dry on a wig stand, away from direct heat.
