Get answers to common questions about Wig Install.

A Wig Install usually takes 2-3 hours depending on hair length, braid complexity, and wig prep. Simple V or U part foundations with sewing typically finish faster; allow extra time for custom fitting, trimming, or additional styling requests.

Yes- bring your wig for fitting. We inspect cap size, tracks, and condition to ensure safe sewing. If adjustments or reinforcement are needed we'll advise; poorly constructed wigs may require a replacement to achieve a secure, long-lasting install.

When braided and sewn properly, a Wig Install should not cause damage. We use protective braiding techniques, appropriate tension, and breathable foundations. Avoid excessive tension and give your hair periodic breaks to maintain scalp health and hair integrity.

Come with clean, dry hair free of heavy oils or buildup. Detangle thoroughly and trim loose ends if needed. If you have chemical treatments or sensitivities, inform us beforehand. We can wash and condition at the salon for an extra fee.

A sewn Wig Install typically lasts 4-8 weeks with proper care, depending on activity level and hair growth. Tightness may loosen over time; we recommend checkups every 3-4 weeks for adjustments or re-tightening to prolong longevity and hair health.

Yes- most wigs can be heat-styled if the hair is heat-resistant. Use low to medium heat, heat protectant, and avoid applying heavy products to the base. For synthetic wigs, check fiber type; consult us before high-heat styling to prevent damage.
