does anyone know how to clean/wash/care for a hair piece made from human hair? thanks!
I'm not positive but am pretty sure that my wig is made of real hair. I've never washed it before, but that's because I wouldn't wear it for long periods of time. It's also very old, so I had to treat it with great care.
What I would do is just simply use one of my many hairbrushes and gently brush the wig. I had to be careful, though, because the hair would come out if I was doing it too hard.
I'm sorry I don't have any better of advice! But hopefully you'll get plenty of other responses from the many people who also wear hairpeices. Toodles!

It was links to pages that give info.
One thing I did read that was important is that you don't use a regular hair brush on wigs. You are supposed to get a specail one for wigs.
