As mid-summer rolls around, thoughts inevitably turn to one thing - the beach! Whether you're fortunate enough to live by the coast or have a vacation planned, the allure of the salty air, sandy toes, and the refreshing sea breeze is irresistible. However, if you wear a wig, you may be wondering how to tackle the beach without any fuss.

Fear not, as we have some easy steps to care for your wig and ensure you feel self-assured at the beach. Furthermore, we'll guide you on selecting the perfect glueless wigs for beach activities and share tips to keep it looking flawless.

Tip 1: Don’t dive or jump into the water

The pressure exerted during diving or jumping can result in the wig being forcefully removed from your head, irrespective of how securely it is attached. This occurrence can be a bit awkward and unexpected in the moment.

Tip 2: Save your best wig for the best

To preserve the quality of your wig, it's important to be mindful of certain factors like saltwater, sand, and harmful chemicals. Therefore, it's advisable to reserve your finest wigs for special occasions such as dinners out, day trips, and cocktails. For beach outings or swimming in the sea or pool, it might be wise to opt for a wig that you're not as attached to, ensuring that any potential damage is minimized.

Tip 3: Apply Water-proof Glue Or Adhesive

To ensure your wig stays securely in place while at the beach, it's important to use waterproof glue instead of regular wig tape, glue liners, and straps. We recommend testing the waterproofness of your glue before taking a dip in the water. You can do this by testing the glue in your bathtub, or a secluded pool, or by taking an extended shower to determine if the glue holds up against the water.

Tip 4: Use Conditioner

Proper wig maintenance is crucial if you choose to wear a wig while swimming. It is essential to thoroughly wash your wig after swimming to eliminate the harsh pool chemicals as soon as possible. After washing, remember to apply a leave-in conditioner to your wig. This not only helps to prevent it from becoming brittle and dry but also aids in maintaining its longevity.
